Potential plague

Sickness spreading..
madness moving
through manic minds,
parts of the planet
in a panic over a possible pandemic,
potential plague
vaguely in the background
got the people going berserk,
some say its really serious
some say nah don't fret
who knows though
hard to know who to believe
or who's dying to deceive,
the fear mongers
or the conspiracy theorist types
  each sharing endless statistics,
trying so hard
to convince you either
to watch, wait and see
or stay blind to this shit..
meanwhile
the coronavirus
has been challenging China,
it's getting crazy over there it seems,
borders blocked,
quarters quarantined,
people passing out
straight up collapsing
for no apparent reason,
seems like something more than
your normal flu season shit,
you can carry it for up to two weeks before you even know
 or notice you're too weak
 to stand..
Seems like some are too timid to admit
what could actually happen if this shit spreads worldwide,
the magnitude
 of this mega virus..
making its way round the world
if nothing's done,
some lie lie lie and distract,
 say it's nothing,
some hype it up and
 say the possibility of global mayhem is
high high high
while so many people continue to
die die die
their families probably asking
why why why..
number of infected individuals
continues to rise
raising concern
eventually
causing chaos and confusion..
what if it reaches worldwide proportions
what then?
what then?
