we& #39;ll be fine all we need is for Americans to:
-care about people besides themselves
-understand long articles or graphs about hospital logistics
-listen to domain experts
-comprehend exponential growth so they won& #39;t downplay small doubling numbers
-make sacrifices to help others

just gotta
-prioritize long-term thinking over short-term convenience
-pay attention to what& #39;s happening in other countries
-consider how what hurts disadvantaged people impacts everyone
-band together to cooperate on a common cause
-remain calm, without ignoring serious problems

if anybody can do these things, it& #39;s us
-place more importance on health and wellbeing than business profit
-not buy flights we don& #39;t need merely because they& #39;re cheap from failing to account for societal costs in pricing
-stay in for meals and entertainment
-care for our seniors

we can rest assured that we& #39;re in good hands with competent leadership making tough choices, telling us the truth, and looking out for the best interests of citizens

in conclusion:
-yes, this is a real thing, take this seriously, do some mild/calm/non-panic prep, worst-case scenario get peace of mind you won& #39;t need to at a point when it gets harder to do
-we& #39;re a week behind Italy, except literally handling it worse than anywhere in the world
