I guess we can all thank the Chinese and their poor containment policies for all this.... How quaint.

Probably time to start a thread about who is positive and who isn't so we can avoid the locations where the positive folks reside....

Glad I'm not a market watcher, Just the devaluing of my stock investments is enough to make me sick.

If the first case had been reported in the U.S. it would have still spread to the World.

My youngest daughter has normal temp of 96, when she has a slight fever, she is normal.. read recently where average temp is no longer 98.6 but some other number. Folks should know their average and pay attention if it is elevated more than a degree or two.

Absolutely........

My gut feeling is.. At some point everyone will get it. The determining factor between survival and death is yet to be determined. They are only guessing at this point. What needs to be done is fast track an immunization program, fine the immunization compound and scrap the clinical trials and all the BS and just start giving it.

All well and good to have exhaustive trials but in the meantime, it's spreading like wildfire. Past time to pull out the stops and get it done.

Helluva way to control the population I'd say...

Grainger sent out an email last night on the pandemic and shortages. The main paragraphs are below. Going forward, they will mainly be supplying health providers, first responders, etc.

• We are working closely with suppliers to maintain the flow of product or find alternates where supplies may be limited. Like many, we are affected by the global shortage of pandemic-related product, including personal protective equipment, which we typically stock to well-exceed customer need–even in significant emergencies.
• To put the challenge in perspective, over the past few weeks orders for safety masks exceeded our entire on-hand supply by several years, and in some cases, decades. We are working through this challenge and are leveraging our supplier relationships to quickly obtain available merchandise, but in some cases, shipment timing is still undefined.
• Please understand we must prioritize orders to ensure customers such as the government, first responders and hospitals have appropriate resources to assist those impacted by this virus. All other orders are arranged based on Grainger inventory management commitments, contract obligations and order timing.

Maybe thank the world traveler's for spreading the bug far and wide at the speed of a airplane.

I sold my stocks last fall when I saw the house of cards swaying in the wind. Dad sold his right before the virus hit.

Same area that got hit so bad last week. Whole communities wiped out. Thousands affected. Don't matter if they stayed home from work or school or sports things. They died in their beds. None of them did a dang thing wrong nor traveled anywhere.

Death, destruction and suffering are bad. Individual, Family, Community, Locality, Country, even globally.

What you have here -in this now- is an issue that has spread from all of the above to also hamper economics and fiscal infrastructures. Globally.

And if it turns out like the SARS 1 vaccine. The vaccine was found to be more deadly than the disease.

I would expect the NCAA announces today they will cancel all tournament games completely, following the NBA's lead.

NCAA has already banned all fans (with a few exceptions) but it's doubtful they will cancel all games. NBA has temporarily suspended the season because a Utah Jazz player tested positive.
