Rep. Don Young (R-Alaska) dismissed the dangers of the coronavirus outbreak while speaking in his home state last week, claiming that the U.S. was at war "mostly because of the presentations by the mass media."

Young made the comments last Friday during an appearance at Mat-Su Senior Services, a Palmer, Alaska, nonprofit that provides housing and services for the elderly, according to The Anchorage Daily News.

"They call it the coronavirus. I call it the beer virus. How do you like that?" Young said, in an apparent reference to Corona beer. "It attacks us senior citizens. I'm one of you. I still say we have to as a nation and state go forth with everyday activities."

The 86-year-old congressman said the deadliness of the virus was "blown out of proportion," claiming "it's not nearly as deadly as the other viruses we have."

3. Why doesn't his constituents see through this?

And why can’t this Representative see that if by chance he loses 4% of his population and hospitals are beyond capacity, that he and his family will be facing public humiliation for the rest of their lives?
