All I’ve ever said, in response to your numerous citation-free rebuttals, is that healthy young people are not at great risk (fact), and they should not panic.

All I’ve ever said, in response to your numerous citation-free rebuttals, is that healthy young people are not at great risk (fact), and they should not panic. So I’m glad we agree.
I’ve never said “don’t be concerned.”
Your other arguments are made up. Wuhan has built a number of facilities, but currently appears to have the epidemic at hand. No other areas have been “overwhelmed”, even within China. Representing medical facilities as “overwhelmed”, at the current time, requires citation from a reputable source.
Maybe in some theoretical future world it’s possible that medical facilities around the world will be overrun with sick patients. This is nowhere near the current reality.
Overlapping of error bars on fatality rates is irrelevant to my arguments; the absolute risk is much, much lower than the flu, for most people, in most places.
Everything you’re arguing here is a scare tactic, twisting kernels of truth to panicked ends.
