I think they are prepping us for the REAL strain....

Now it seems that USA has the mild strain of WuFlu. After all of the shit that has happened this month, people will balk at the next round of Coronavirus counter-measures. This fall will be a nightmare.
No one will follow the measly "shelter in place" orders, and go about their normal lives.
Millions will be infected with the more virulent strain and we wont know it for a month.
Whoever started this ball rolling really knows what they are doing it seems.
