Yet again I'm fascinated how the first casualty of the coronavirus is language. The below statement is true, of course: Worry over coronavirus is legitimate, panic is dumb.
That's what I get googling the definition of "panic", defined as "sudden uncontrollable fear or anxiety, often causing wildly unthinking behavior".
By it's very definition, panic is dumb.
By it's very definition, panic is dumb.
It goes onto infect the entire country and kills a million people, Elon can still go back and justify that tweet: "Yes, worry was legitimate, I was just saying the panic was dumb".
I, for one, am quite worried about the #COVIDー19. I've stocked up on a month's worthy of food. BTW, large jars of peanut butter are one of the best choices.
