This is the type of worst-case scenario fear-mongering and click-baiting stuff that the very worst youtube "stars" and "pundits" engage in. I think the oh-my-god-we're-all-gonna-die-run-for-your-lives attitude that we see so often online is contagious and spreading. So, the "many" who are "saying" and asking questions are just trying to stir the pot. They can be safely ignored.
