The media makes it out to be worse than it is.
If you get sick, go to the doctor. You should be doing that anyway, no matter what virus you get.
Dude, it is not about the lethality.. if a person get coronavirus, they don't know it because it's symptomless at the start and it can be like that for a long time.. everyone can get infected very easily and quickly (touching an infected people or even touching something that he touched some hours ago, coronavirus "expires" after 48 hours on steel and 72 hours on plastic), and if there are too much people with the virus, hospitals can't keep them all, so they will easily die.. just think that everything started by one person in China, and then everything got in Italy and it's getting in other countries (because of one person too!).
Italy has too many old people, that's why it got much victims than China even if Italy has many less infected!
Old people usually die because their immune system don't work that well, so even a normal flu can be fatal.. so it's better if they don't contract any virus, especially now..
Many countries did a total lockdown, so everyone had to stay at home, otherwise you can even get arrested.. and they're doing well! If everyone is going out their home, we would get millions of infected and it can be a big problem!
Hope you understand my state, sorry for bad English don't judge me
