    I don't understand what you guys try to achieve by all the fear mongering on this thread?

    Is there any benefit for the general populace even if all the stories posted here are true (which they are not)?

    Most damage from this virus in Sri Lanka will not be caused by the virus itself. It will be caused by the fuckwits who fuel mass hysteria by spreading unverified rumors and do online fear mongering i.e FB page admins, fuckers who forward and share any dumb shit they come across on WhatApp, retards on online forums trying to be self important, etc etc.

    Check the WatchDog app before you share anything. They have debunked most of the horeshit rumors that spread around with proof and facts.

    I tend to agree with you on scare mongering. Some posters do extract from fakebook, and these tend not to be factual.. But I guess they are few in numbers. Many do with good intentions and some need to get information from others that might be of some help. So don't blame en-masse.

    For comparison, I will just quote one instance. This was reported on 27 September 2018.
    In several countries with the winter flu season many aged people pass away. That's why all old people are advised to take the flu shot beforehand.

    <The U.S. government estimates that 80,000 Americans died of flu and its complications last winter — the disease's highest death toll in at least four decades.>
    Anyone who wants to read in full, here's the link.

    There are other gene sequencing related details regarding the 2019-nCoV but didn't post as still quite unverified and useless to the majority.
