We shall see, but the only constant about the "Prophets of doom" is that their predictions never materialize, I've heard the devastation of the economy story way too many times before, just like with every other catastrophe that has happened around here over the years, 6 months down the line and nobody is talking about it! That's the exact thing that will happen to the latest media fueled end of the world super pandemic.
influenza killed 80,000 in the US in 2018, Why isn't this being targeted as the end of the world economy super pandemic? It's not in China, that's it, all political fuel... It's definitely something to be cautious about and the health organizations need to address it, I'm not trying to minimize it, but "The doom of the economy event" a little dramatic in my view!
You can come back in the summer of 2020 and make fun of me if you like, but I have a feeling that the laser pointer would have moved on to the next "The world is coming to an end" scenario by then.
