  1. You are correct in one sense. Scientists can't give all the answers because they don't know. People want immediate answers like what is the mortality rate if you get the virus. This question can't be answered , only an educated guess. But it can be said for example that 0.16% of the New York population has died from this so far, debunking the 0.02% mortality rate suggested but then they say every death in New York has been counted as this virus. That can't be debunked because it's saying every doctor in New York is dishonest. No way to prove anything to that person now. Some conspiracy theories thrive on this because they can say the scientific community doesn't know.

On the planet because he was referring to the US role internationally like assistance with the Ebola outbreak in Africa. This channel is funded by the German government if you wanted to know.

  3. This i believe is a major reason why people in the US are more susceptible. Because of programs like that which Edward Snowden exposed. This was occurring under President s of both major parties.
