I think it's a real problem, but it has been hyped up and politicized causing a lot of doubts. Anything that can kill innocent people, especially one that very well could have been developed in a lab in China, needs our attention. I only say this because the doctors and whistleblowers that started saying this early, either died unexpectedly or have disappeared. I think the infectious disease people in high places are also worried it will mutate into a worse disease like the SARS did when it jumped from chickens to people in a relatively short period.
