Sky News host Andrew Bolt says given recent daily rate of increases of the coronavirus, the outbreak is 'serious, but not hopeless, and we should be very careful, but certainly not panic'.

Sky News host Andrew Bolt says given recent daily rate of increases of the coronavirus, the outbreak is "serious, but not hopeless, and we should be very careful, but certainly not panic".

In what Mr Bolt said was the "best of the good news today" the measures employed by the government and carried out by the public do "seem to be working", as the daily rate of infections have dropped to 13 and 15 per cent over the last two days. "I know the virus is still spreading, and too fast, but we do seem to be slowing it down, and our hospitals are nowhere near swamped," he said.

Ask your friend Dutton why he sold us to the Chinese again who transported all our medical supplies to Wuhan province. Stop killing us

So insightful!

What about us oldies whose going to decide who lives or dies as each hospital has but a handful of respirators?

That's dependent on too many unknown factors, and way too early for you or anyone else to make that call just yet! Panic is not good, but the world is honestly not prepared medically for the challenge they face. (You want to decide who gets respirators and who dies.)
