He's wrong.

WHO is not the media.
CDC is not the media.
NIAID is not the media.
Certainly the governments of Italy, South Korea, China, etc. etc. are not the media.
Those are the ones saying things

That Pastor is in denial.

I know several who were saying the same type of things a week ago. Most of them have seen the light the past couple of days.

As a flat earth believer, i know the government is a liar. So who knows this day and age when dealing with the government(s) what is true and what is being used as testing and reaction experiment of how or what people will believe.

It wouldn't be a pandemic if it wasn't a big deal. Mant countries numbers are nom shooting up like crazy. Now, is it a big deal in terms of death toll? Not really. I mean 11% of the elderly will die from it. And I am in no way acting that isn't sad. But its still a small percentage and not really killing anyone else.

For example the Black Death killed 30%-60% of Europe's population. Which is why its in history books. Even the Plague killed 20%.

The biggest thing about COVID-19 is the fact that most people will get it at some point. And for most it will make them sick and then they will be fine. With all this said thats why people I think are panicking more. Knowing that you will get it, even if to most its harmless.

The earth flat where I'm standing. However, having traversed a fair bit of it over my 68 years, I can assure you that it really is a globe.

Well we know it has an exponential growth feature, so what you see now doesn't look like much to fret over. It won't stay that way.. So do most viruses but this one is extremely easy to catch. And you can catch it from a person carrying it who doesn't show symptoms. Some folks go through all the stages with not much more than a sniffle and 1 degree elevated temp. Others are hospitalized and still die. Still others get it severely and survive but are left with scar tissue in their lungs.So it's dangerous. The flu is dangerous too but we have the means to deal with that. Every year many die from the flu, this could outflank those numbers. So far our numbers aren't bad, if we can isolate or separate sick from healthy we may cut the exponential factor significantly. Your pastor really should move to live streaming services. Many churches have, most in our system of churches I belong to has.

How did China all the sudden get this get out of jail free card where everyone stopped talking about how they covered everything (and everyone) up, and are the reason this happened, to all the sudden being praised as setting an example on how to handle things? My God the sheeple are so easy to steer around!

A dictature is bad and slow regarding information, but fast and effective regarding mass measures against things like pandemic.

Two sides of the same coin.

My 60 year old healthy neighbor and a pastor told me that is Covid-19 is not as bad as the media has said. No telling if he is spreading this all over his church???
He told the truth.
The truth has not changed in thousands of years.
It is a wonder that he knows the truth - most pastors do not.

Because first they covered things up and then they served as an example of how to handle things.

Think there was a "set up" to "steer sheeple" around ?

Sure looks like it every day.

He whose mind is set on Christ, is kept in perfect peace. No panic. No fear of such things. There are many things people fear. As written.

Is anyone afraid of a hangnail ? A temporary pimple(so many get)? A wart on a finger ?

Seek God and what God says about anything. Listen to the Voice of the Shepherd Jesus , in green pastures and by still waters. Nothing escapes God's Notice, and those who find His Way to deal with life, are guarded by Him, kept in perfect peace.

I am 76 with chronic lung disease. I still have a very good life teaching piano pupils.
My husband is having radiotherapy and chemotherapy treatment. He looks well and we work well together.
If either of us caught this Coronavirus it would go straight to the lungs and I am not sure if we would survive.
Yes it is no big deal if you are healthy,
But I am going to be sensible and take precautions. :rolleyes:

The more i hear about this virus, the more rats i smell. I truly believe with my mind,body and soul that there is something else going on. I BELIEVE this whole virus problem was planned but i do not understand or know why. We need to be alert!

It's pretty real here in Japan.

Now, if your question is whether or not we should hit the panic button, I think the best thing to do is simply to follow whatever recommendations the WHO and your government make (and in your case the CDC). We should be cautious and take it seriously, but that doesn't mean that we should be anxious.
