The different flu viruses kill just as many yearly. I'm not worried about it. Keep hands away from face and use hand sanitizer often. Change clothes when you return home.
Masks do not protect your eyes/ears, which if particles are in the air, can get in and infect you.
Think about it, eye, ears, nose, and mouth are all inter-related. Why cover up half (mouth and nose) and leave 50% unprotected. Masks are a waste of money folks.

Were YOU the reason stocks recovered slightly the end of Friday? ...and why futures are up?
Plowing your millions in, eh?
Hahaha, millions?! Naw. More like thousands, so I'm just a speck in all this traffic. My brother in law works at Fidelity and basically told me that his team's swamped this past week (and probably this week) with people pulling out of their portfolios from the scare.

A neighboring school district has announced that classes will be conducted online for the next two weeks. The UW (University of Washington) is going online (only) for the rest of Winter Quarter... Bellevue College, which is about a mile from my school is also going online.... My school has training for online teaching next Wednesday....
If they shut down my school, the word is that I will be expected to self-quarantine....
Where I live, people buy bottled water to drink all the time in their homes. It is ridiculous. They think that they will be quarantined and need to have bottled water since they "can't" drink tap water.@wwin wrote:
Well, since I've had a cold I've been home watching netflix all week not sharing my germs . I started shopping today and I've now added changing clothes when I get home from my routes along with all the hand washing and not touching my face. I'd like to be using hand sanitizer between shops but there is none available so I'm wiping down surfaces with wipes.
I am completely baffled by the people at Costco standing in line to buy water. Bleach, sanitizers, cleaning supplies, medicines, even food in case you are put in quarantine make sense. But what, they think we will lose municipal water? Don't get me wrong I'm in earthquake country and having bottled water can only be good but still it seems strange. I always have a stockpile of supplies since I buy with coupons and sales but admit needed to pick up bleach this week.
Yeah, it was a Dartmouth Medical Center employee who had just returned from Italy. He decided to ignore the request to self quarantine, and went to a business party up in neighboring Vermont. Here's an article about it. Some people must have low concern for their fellow man! (and/or woman!) [nypost.com]@JASFLALMT wrote:
I heard on NPR about this guy who they tested and asked that he self-quarantine until the test results came back. He went to a party. His test results came back afterwards as positive, so now they are trying to get in touch with all of the people who attended the party.
