Is it wrong to prep? Nope. Is it wrong to inform those around you about the potential? Nope.
But if EVERYONE did it right now, there would not be enough to go around and we don't need create a run on that stuff right now, but in 4 weeks when we really need too for the majority.
I just picked up another 25 pounds of rice, big container of hand sanitizer, and a case of paper towels after work earlier.
I am slowly picking up supplies because I believe that if this is not contained soon, then there will be empty shelves everywhere. I hope not, but just in case my family will be better off than most because I choose to think ahead a little.
I hope nothing comes from thus but, I have a pretty bad feeling that if I do not act a little on this, then it may be too late.

Word is After Communist Chinese Spies STOLE the Corona Virus from a Canadian Lab , they took it to China's Top Biological Weapons Facility and Created a New Cocktail out of it Adding SARS and AIDS Cultures . It was Either Deliberately Tested on their Own Population , or Somehow Accidentally got out of Containment due to Human Error . The " Bat Soup " Story was Totally FAKE NEWS .

According to this Harvard Bio-weapons expert, human error as in 'leaks' happen often with these BSL-4 labs.

So Where did it Actually Originate From ? Or is that Information just Not Available as a Kernel of Truth ?

Sorry but I still don’t agree. There’s ample scientists coming forward saying man made due to obvious segment inserted into middle of virus.
I still think bio accident. Maybe not an accidental weapon release.
WHO helped build the lab so they have MO to cover up an accident.
If all the things we learned in this thread about US gov and CDC prepping are accurate then for sure they know what it is.

He drafted the US domestic implementing legislation for the Biological Weapons Convention, known as the Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorism Act of 1989, that was approved unanimously by both Houses of the US Congress and signed into law by President George H. W. Bush.

At this point I think the goal of governments are...
Delay.....
1) Delay the spread of the virus by taking those obviously sick from entering the USA or being around others
2) Delay making a big deal about the virus. If we lock down everyone coming in, even with no symptoms, that will cause fear and panic
3) The more time we have, the better we can grasp what we are dealing with and hopes have having a viable treatment
4) More time to prepare and prep for worst case situation
If fear and panic happens...
1) Hospitals and medical centers will be overburden and not be able to care for the truly sick (be it this virus or heart condition, or whatever)
2) Markets will decline significantly
3) A run on food and other supplies
... All happening BEFORE there is a real need for any of this to happen.
All of us on here want to KNOW THE TRUTH, but do we really want to know the truth. If we heard the truth would we react based on fear? Imagine the panic going through this thread about finding out that the numbers and deaths are 10x what they are being reported, or 100 times what they are being reported. We respond out of fear... we must prep, we must get masks, we must take action.
YET... perhaps by the time this really starts to become REAL in 4 weeks inside say, the United States, that a viable treatment will have been found (which already has for treatment of HIV) and while a vaccine will not be available for months or years, a 90% effective treatment, if treated in time, would not cause all the panic, all the market drama and a overwhelm medical centers and food supplies.
I know people who have NO CLUE about the corona virus and even if you told them, they would go on about their day.

Plus, what is running out of supplies now, will most certainly run out if they made a big deal about it, so it allows companies to get more supplies, etc.
