China Corona virus

Lots of stuff stays viable in fecal matter for a long time which, is why I am very adverse to using sewage plant sludge for fertilizing farm fields.

Yikes! I did not know that.

Candidly, I don't. Maybe you want to enlighten me. You are usually good at that.

I really don't want to see anyone contract it here, you included but it don't hurt at all to be cautious. Besides, I don't like anyone in my face. Do you?

Walked past a box of high filtration face masks the other day and considered buying them. If nothing else, they would make good paint masks.

You know what you said. I don't need to regurgitate it.

We don't know the origins of this virus. If it escaped a Chinese lab... maybe. They are obviously trying to contain it best they can. Do you honestly think our government would handle it differently?

Uh...no.. We would do the same thing.

I read your comments all the time and I'd say you are a professional regurgitator and king of the snarky comments.

Thank you for the compliment. I'm honored that you read my comments all the time.

I guess a bigger question (as Hillary Clinton would say) "What difference does it make?". What difference does it make if China created this virus in a weapons lab or the virus is a natural occurrence? From my point of view none. We and everyone else in the world have to do whatever we can to fight this plague. You don't think we create horrible bio weapons in our labs? Of course we do. So do many other countries. Treaty shmeaty. It is still being done, by many.

Yep. And most of the lab discoveries start with us.

+1 and shrouded in secrecy as well.

I have a feeling this whole scenario isn't going to play out well for everyone involved. The main reason I'm limiting my exposure to strangers and staying away from places where people congregate. Gee... It's in S. Korea now. I'm sure it will be here too, only a matter of time. It is 'here' but contained for the most part. Having said that, I have a bad feeling it won't be soon.
