The prominent bitcoin cash (BCH) advocate and bitcoin.com former CEO, Roger Ver, is downplaying the impact of coronavirus, stating the reaction is disproportionate.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
If YOU are worried about the coronavirus, YOU should self isolate.
Leave the rest of us alone. <a href="https://t.co/9DUzsdtnCy">pic.twitter.com/9DUzsdtnCy</a>
— Roger Ver (@rogerkver) <a href="https://twitter.com/rogerkver/status/1244263515172601857?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 29, 2020</a></blockquote>
Ver tweeted a screenshot of statistics, putting coronavirus against other diseases including malaria, flu etc. for the first three months of the year 2020. He added a caption with the screenshot that 'in case you're worried about the coronavirus, you should self-isolate. Leave the rest of us alone.'

The statistics shared by Roger Ver, however, didn't have a source mentioned next to them. The data, however, suggested that deaths by these diseases outweigh the fatalities of covid-19, in fact, by ten times. Ver screenshot highlighted the victims of HIV /AIDS which took the lives of almost 400,000 people in this period.

The official numbers of coronavirus deaths are around 34,000. While some countries continue to not care about a complete lockdown, almost 1/3rd of the countries are under a total shutdown, as the state governments want to cut down the burden on hospitals etc. and reduce the virus from spreading like wildfire further.

Roger Ver claims could be pretty vague as there is no source. Also, a growing number of people believe that the data presented by the governments so far is inadequate as many victims didn't even get tested. Also, to stop creating further chaos, they are given misleading numbers to control the hysteria.
<h2>Roger Ver Receives Backlash</h2>
While many other prominent members are reaching out for help like Binance charity, Ripple labs to lend a hand in crushing the coronavirus, Roger Ver and his fellow libertarian, John McAfee are busy in drawing comparisons in moments like these. They have faced people's wrath online after people found these posts, insensitive and uncalled for.
