Someone else posted this a couple of days ago, but I don't think it got the exposure it deserves. If you have anyone in your circle of friends, family, acquaintances who is not taking this seriously yet - I'm still hearing "like the flu" crap in my community amazingly enough - send them this.
It is from 01/01/2020 - 05/24/2020. Imagine what the graph would look like now, a month later.

Fuck that noise.
It's a terrible SARS disease for which we have no immunity, almost no effective treatment, and possibly no viable vaccine ever.
