I agree that the "all going to die" is hysterics, and I'm not sure anyone is saying that. I'm in fort Wayne and there are already 5-6 cases, one from a vendor at the home and garden show where he perhaps saw thousands of people.

By the time you double every square of the chessboard, there are a great many sick and a great many dead. I would imagine that you and I will know many of them also.
The 7+ days of incubation is a major problem. Those with the virus can be spreading it for a week before they know they are infected. Shutting down places that have groups of people, is the best way to stop transmission.

Stay home. Wash your hands often and hope for the best. There isn't any way to completely seal yourself off, unless you are one of those Preppers hiding in bumfuck montana 50 miles from the nearest road.
