Don't let the fear get to you - just be prudent and maybe get a few things just in case, before everyone else decides to buy it all.

Spend time with your loved ones and doing things you enjoy, the stuff you should be doing anyway.

It all does appear ridiculously scripted though, doesn't it?

My favourite bit:

Plague Inc. also received an early December "Fake News" update that added "a radically different scenario which lets you create your very own Fake News story and deceive the world with it," according to the game's public patch notes.

I give up

I suspect the closer we all get to the end, the more this will be the case. "The unreal" (and with it, the total breakdown of rational thought) appears to be ramping up quickly. Ah well, it was a good run, there are a lot of folks alive whom I care about and they hopefully all know that. You're absolutely right about doing the things we enjoy and spending time with loved ones. Life sure is easier to live when we're not hurting anyone - even if others decide to hurt us. There seems to be nothing on the planet quite like a clean conscience.
