China is an absolute disgrace and the country should be punished excessively when this is over.

January 23, 2020 ... China started building 2 emergency hospitals.

At that point, the whole world was on notice and if someone or a country downplayed it, their delay to act or unwillingness to appreciate the potential danger is on them, imo.

You know this was going on as far back as November? You know if they contacted WHO and their neighbors immediately up to 95% of the spread would not have happened.

I had no idea Italy was a 3rd world country.

They have a significant older population and they tend to live at home with family vs going into a nursing home.

Beautiful place with old traditions but it is pretty much a third world country. My son-in-law is stationed in Sicily and is stuck in lock down. My daughter was there for a month and loved the place. Just talked to him this morning and he has been stuck in his apartment for almost two weeks. My daughter was suppose to go back in April but thats not happening.

Does anyone know anyone who is showing objective signs of coronavirus?

So far, at least for my small world, its like Coronavirus only exists on the internet when I read about it. Its weird. Schools are closed, courts are closed, restaurants closed, sports and theater cancelled, Im running out of TP and cant find any anywhere ... I have all these external indicators that things are not normal right now .... but they are. At least for me. I go to work, eat lunch, come home, make the kid some dinner, put her down, watch TV, go to bed.

It hasnt effected me. I dont know anyone who has a fever. I dont see anyone looking sick in public.

We as a society are doing all these previously unthought of things like cancel the NCAA Tourney and its all anyone talks about .... but where is it?

Is it coming? And if so, just was is the "it"? No food? People dying outside hospitals? Forced quarantine?

Perhaps Im just anxious and this is the calm before the storm.

I just want to find some damn TP at this point.

No idea where you live but here in Central Virginia the mom & pop country stores have decent supplies of things that the big chain stores don't. Some aren't all that far off the beaten path. The closest one to me did finally run out of TP yesterday.

My niece who is an EMT had a coworker that transported a woman with it. My sister in law is a nurse in Baltimore City and she said her wing was getting the first 2 patients a few days ago. But gladly so far I don't know of a person directly.

Our mail lady comes in here everyday and is wearing no protection.

On a side note I just talked to my daughter and Washington (the state) will pay her (a nurse) $5,000 a week if she will fly there and work. I told her no but she is looking at her options.

The Seattle area is expensive as can be to eat and house yourself. Tell her to check into that first.

Wearing gloves can actually increase your risk of catching coronavirus

Not if you use and remove the gloves properly.

Back2RFK · 03-19-2020, 02:26 PM

Only in the UK would they walk around wearing the gloves then sit down and eat without removing or changing the gloves.
