This tweet and the Daily Mail article is the real fear porn. The report itself is just hypothetical scenarios laid out by a bunch of public health nerds and put in writing. Nobody would know or care about if it wasn't published in a tabloid.
So basically a tabloid runs a report about "what ifs", likely designed to be click bait and then it hits the interwebs and gets run through the Twitter filter, where it then makes a beeline to the maga it was intended for, and a few seconds later here we are.
Well at least they started a conversation.
