This part is the only part you got right, 12 Monkeys, because this gave me an excuse to watch it. But that excuse was to create a hyperalertness within the minds of my family regarding habits
@mysticmac hit on, which is working.
My younger brother runs security for the largest senior care facility in Seattle.
He'll be on the news likely this week when scares begin there, and he will now look like a knight in shining armor with the precautions he implemented.
My mother works there too as a receptionist, and is at a very high risk.
Because she has put her pride aside and obeyed me, the facility will be in good shape had she not, but I'm still concerned, of course.
My brother runs a very popular food truck and has already been on the news twice, and his business precautions are essential for everyone eating that food, which are Boeing workers of the Puget Sound.
One daughters has turned my hime into a clean zone, it's unreal.
The other one did her own thing and found herself in a hot zone, across the street from where the people are dying.
I think Dr. Drew said it best today, which is basically what I've been telling people for weeks(which was a government planted propaganda seed):
" Media 'needs to shut up' about Corona virus saying 'you're more likely to die of influenza'.
Again, AND AGAIN!.. the focus, like all bleeds/leads news, is "death", and although terrible, it shouldn't be, nor stop there.
From the beginning there have been multiple implications tied to this outbreak, and those are what I and many have echoed, and there's a hundred sayings that mirror this.
I like this one from the movie
Winter Soldier.
" .... was founded on the belief that humanity could not be trusted with its own freedom. What we did not realize is if you tried to take that freedom they would resist.
The war taught us much. Humanity had to surrender its freedom willingly."

@sparkuri I wasn't aware you were in an affected area. I guess that does help justify some of your panic. My stance is still the same, and as a friend I just want you to be happy and from my point of view, you aren't happy right now. You are in full panic mode and if the more healthy option is between two options, panic over something you can't control and worrying about it constantly versus trying to reassure yourself your chances of surviving is high, I would think the more healthy mindset is the latter.
