If we compare the number of daily deaths from falls in the shower, and learn to relativize the global alarm (level 5 on the official scale of 6) that brought us some of Mexico made a few days ago.



There is an unstoppable advance of the panic. Goes much faster than a virus threatened by the arrival of the Northern Hemisphere summer.
