Stephen King that is that really relates to what is happening in the world today.

What's happening right now. So let's take a look at the quote first.

"Panic is highly contagious" and this is true you know, we see that you know when

some people panic it spreads more and more people panic. Today we can see this

with everybody buying up all the products in the stores and people

worried about this corona virus. So here's one way how it really relates. So " Panic

is highly contagious, especially when nothing is known and

everything is in flux. " Okay. Let's start covering it. This quote

is being repeated a lot now due to the coronavirus crisis. It is related to the

chrono virus crisis in a couple of ways. One the corona virus is presently and

causing a lot of worldwide panic. Second Stephen King wrote a book called "The

Stand . " I do remember this. I used to be a very big Stephen King fan when I was

young. I think I read about his first seven or eight books or something like

that. And "The Stand" was one of them. It's a long book for him and that, that's why

I you know they've only made it into miniseries. It's very difficult to put it

in the movie theater because it was so long ... that was released in 1980. Okay. That

book was about a virus that escaped from a bio-weapon lab and killed off 99% of

the population. You know in the book. Okay. The one percent that was left. You

know who just for some reason had some immunity to this disease. So 1% of all

the people on Earth didn't get killed by this disease... was left had a stand . A

fight between good and evil. That was also very interesting part of this book

was when all was said and done the people that were left... there was still

the battle was still between good and evil. Some people were good. Some people were evil

of the ones that did survive. All right. Let's continue. The part of the quote in

which he says nothing is known also relates to today. The origin of this

virus is still very much in question. Now of course the official story is that it

came from a wet market and that maybe some people ate bat soup they who and the

bat had bit a Pangolin , but a lot of people don't know. This , this is really

kind of very unprovable and it's very questionable. But this is the story

that's kind of pushed out there. Even though last time when we had the SARS

crisis it was the same sort of story with a civet and that was never proven

and I don't even think it really is provable. So a lot of people are still in

question. Like how did this disease come about ? There is a lot of conspiracy

theories. One of them is that it came from a bio-lab in China. We don't know or

maybe somebody else is behind it. Maybe somebody else. Maybe not China at all.

Maybe somebody else spread this for for other ulterior motives or other reasons.

Okay. So that's why a lot ... we say a lot is still unknown. Okay. Okay people also

don't really know how far it will go. That's right. You know because we think

it's going to stop somewhere, but it just keeps seeming to spread into one country,

into another country and every country keeps getting hit with it. The world is

in flux. It means everything is in constant change. Every day we're hearing

different stories about you know, how it is spread here and spreading there. This

is closing down and it's closing down factories and there's also the issue

that if we're stopping the whole economic world economy it is practically

coming to a standstill which could cause other major problems too. We, we might

even crash the whole economic system. So this is also important. So everything is

in change. That, that's also playing into this situation causing more fear , more

more influx and and people are you know, panicking about you know having supplies.

Just in case every everything gets even that much worse. On the bright side

though as of making this video. You know just last week they are talking about

that there might be a cure on the way and I know in France they did some study

with using the same drug that they use for malaria and it looks very promising.

So there is ... there is a little light at the end of the tunnel if that works out. So

that's one good , good point about this. Let's continue here with this one.

However , Stephen King prefers that people do not ... do not compare you know, his, his

fictional virus to the corona virus. He says his virus is much worse. It

knocked off 99% of the people on Earth. And this one won't do that. Even at its

worst , it should not do that. It's more like maybe you know 1% of the places

they get hit by it you know, or 1% of the people that actually contract it. Not

even 1% of the population ...might seem to... maybe might die from this. Hopefully, now

hopefully it'll be as few as possible and hopefully there really is a cure on

the way. And he's not that crazy about it being compared but yet it's all ironic

because he's quote and everything kind of fits together. And it's all very

suitable to what is happening right at the moment. Okay. Anyway, I hope you liked it.

I hope you find it informative. Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
