The way to combat fear and hysteria over the #COVID19 #coronavirus is to use all the data available.
Follow the data. Forget the headlines.

@avoiceofliberty Excellent article from Peter Nayland Kust. We can quell our fears by carefully interpreting the data provided by organizations like WA DOH. He talks about how anyone can follow the WA DOH Influenza Update as a proxy for possible #COVID19 outbreaks. Luckily, Snohomish County has not seen a surge of flu-like symptom visits to the ER until recently, visits to the ER there are increasing a little now. This is a huge relief for Washingtonian like myself.
@moose Thanks for the boost!
I hope to strike the proper balance between calm and caution. The disease is real and the healthcare concerns ARE real. But so are the abilities of ordinary people to do something about it.
Follow the data, think, plan, prepare.
