Time for a thread. I know we have friends in Italy & I live in Seattle where the first US death has happened. picturesofyou springs to mind immediately. Pizza Girl, you ok? I'm definitely concerned as my health is shiate right now & my immune system is compromised. Am definitely taking precautions. Everyone should be aware of this as the picture is getting more grim daily. No joke!

Not sure that those masks actually have any effect at all.
It hasn't really hit here in Hungary, but went shopping yesterday & was pretty shocked to see a lot of empty shelves in the supermarkets.
Interesting to see the drop in pollution over China due (in part) to the slowdown of manufacturing activity

They sure know how to work a crowd.

Hope this is all for naught but if this turns out to be more "Captain Trips" (ref: "The Stand" Stephen King) TMI is better than propaganda or too little info. The evil on Wall St sure seems to be taking notice. Madison Ave is sure to follow. I think there is more hard news coming from my part of the world shortly, they are just waiting on the Center for Disease Control for test results. Fingers crossed.

Yep. The nay sayers who think all us people who care about the environment wear tin foil hats still don't realize the earth is a living breathing entity and every few years she burps a few million of us off.

There have been no cases confirmed in Slovakia, however there are some in Austria and Czech Republic..
A friend of mine in France is in a quarantine, because he visited Italy last week.
It is a bit tricky in the Schengen Area, it is impossible to control people travelling all around.

Just got asked by a reporter from the NY Post (what a *wonderful* paper

) if I thought the Dept of Ed should let parents opt to keep their kids home because of the beer virus. I couldn't stop myself from laughing in her face.

just wait until there's a few more cases there & deaths. the cultural imperialism will kick in & we'll never hear the end of it. not saying is same thing but you should read about philly & the spanish flu post ww1. interesting stuff. maybe we can split off everything west of the rockies & call it westeros. the east coast could be centeros for center of the universe. midwest = flyoveria & the south piterous for the bottom of the continent. surely i jest!

maybe there can be a telethon like when the amusement park got damaged during hurricane sandy. sorry, no disrespect meant just black humour. its unfortunate that this could have been avoided if the chinese government had not tried to hide it when the problem appeared in december. that's why discourse is good.

To be fair, I don't think they really knew what it was at first.
Once they realised they did try to lock down Wuhan to contain the spread as best they could.
But then various governments started falling over themselves to fly their citizens back home en masse.
Is it any wonder it's crossed borders?

apologies to @notkristie & all. this is making me very nervous & i got sarcastic. the situation here in washington state is detiorating daily & by all indications is akin to what is happening in Milan with cases most likely in the 4 figures. now that there is adequate testing available it appears the virus has been here since early on undetected & is spreading quickly. the local news is a bit ahead of the national/world coverage in some ways. i am totally in the group that is very at risk. i should have more info today from some calls to doctors i made yesterday. most likely i'm going to have to stop the new RA drug i started recently that is suppressing my immune system which means some extra pain coming my way which is saying a lot. i'm already having a challenge getting around. given the possible alternative, small price to pay i guess. so earlier, it wasn't me being nasty. basically scared Shirteless & i don't scare easy nowadays. earlier i mentioned spanish flu outbreak post ww1. definitely interesting reading the history. while times have certainly changed in some ways things are worse regarding potential spread. we need to hope that modern medicine is up to stopping this before it gets totally out of hand. so again, apologies to all. we'll hope for the best.
