I agree. There's a big difference between saying "Don't be afraid" and saying "Don't be cautious". People seem to forget that for the vast majority of those who get the virus, the symptoms are mild. With the media primarily focusing only on the worst case scenarios, people are panicking. According to the medical experts (when their comments aren't filtered through the press), if people exercise normal health precautions, the majority will be fine.
