A lot of open ended questions that could lead anywhere lol

Actually I think how quickly we jump to conspiracy theories is part of the problem.

Too many people are reflexively suspicious of anything the government says so they just ignore guidance off of reflex. They start wondering about the motivations of people they really don't know rather than focusing on what's within their sphere of control.

The only known cure for viruses is prevention, either through vaccination or just not getting it. We (regular people) have no control over the development of a vaccine so all we can do is try to avoid getting it.

And since it's a new disease, we really don't know what the full effects of it are, so it's reckless for some to think that the mild to non-existent symptoms they have now will be all the symptoms they ever have (think chicken pox vs shingles).
