"Biophysicist Foresees Hope"

While the MSM is busy painting a picture of doom and gloom in regards to the coronavirus outbreak, Michael Levitt, a Nobel laureate and Stanford biophysicist, foresees hope.

In January, Levitt began analyzing the number of Covid-19 cases around the globe and calculated that China would eventually reach a peak in the number of infections and then steadily decline. He was correct: China has gotten through the worst of its outbreak and is now on the road to recovery--long before experts had predicted.

Even now, "many epidemiologists are warning of months, or even years of massive social disruptions and millions of deaths," reports yahoo! News . "Levitt says the data simply don't support such a dire scenario--especially in areas where reasonable social distancing measures are in place."

Now Levitt believes the United States and the rest of the world can expect a similar outcome.

"What we need is to control the panic," he said. "In the grand scheme, we're going to be fine" as long as we don't become complacent.

"The social distancing mandates are critical. Particularly the ban on large gatherings--because the virus is so new that the population has no immunity to it and a vaccine is still many months away. This is not the time to go out drinking with your buddies."

Levitt went on to say, "While the Covid-19 fatality rate appears to be significantly higher than that of the flu, it is not the end of the world."

True. It's not the end of the world...but you can see it from here.

A wise man once said: "Ever wonder what the last days of this age will look like? Well...look around...as we get closer to that time, we can see how those events are preparing to play out." --

"Panicapocalyspe"

"The coronavirus risks bringing out the worst in humanity," according to CNN, after reporting on a violent toilet paper incident.

In fact, tales of unruly and even brawling panic hoarders (or "zombie peasants" as ZeroHedge likes to call them) have both shocked and awed us, as middle and low-income people scramble after too few goods.

But according to Bloomberg, the rich are beginning to express their anxiety in an even more dangerous way--quietly removing their cash from the bank. If enough people do this, it won't end well.

From toilet paper frenzies to bank runs, the reason is the same: panic over a situation none of us can control.

Is it okay to be concerned? Yes. We should be very concerned and very careful to follow the advice of the experts. But panicked? No.

According to the 16th century theologian Martin Luther, during the bubonic plague:
"You ought to think this way, very well by God's decree, the enemy has sent us poison and deadly offal. Therefore, I shall ask God mercifully to protect us. Then I shall fumigate, help purify the air, administer medicine, and take it. I shall avoid places and persons where my presence is not needed in order not to become contaminated and thus perchance infect and pollute others, and so cause their death as a result of my negligence. If God should wish to take me, He will surely find me and I have done what He has expected of me and so I am not responsible for either my own death or the death of others. If my neighbor needs me, however, I shall not avoid person or place, but will go freely."
Practical advice from a man of God. Let's follow it.
