The Novel Coronavirus thread is on a temp vacation.....

That’s the frustrating part of dealing with the constant toilet paper morons. This affects your lungs, not your guts.
My wife is in the front lines of health care dealing with this all day, every day. She’s old, and a cancer survivor. She works on people, who if they get this, they WILL die. With her immunity down, she COULD die. So when morons focus on the toilet paper thing like they just wrote the freakin’ Magna Carta it makes me embarrassed for my species. It’s not about making light of a bad situation, it’s about stupidity not being funny.

I truly hope those who make light of this situation do not disregard common sense and in return harm their own family members or others. Everybody knows somebody to whom this could have detrimental effects.

Gotta say I picked a bad time to come out of semi-retirement mode to help a friend on a huge construction project working some 10 hour days with miles of walking in and outdoors. At my age and my bad habits not a rosy situation other than some good exercise. Money was too nice to pass before all this blew up to a massive scale as I now watch my IRA dwindle. Well sheeit maybe won't need the cash...hard to spend it when on the wrong side of the dirt. My family will just have a few more $$$ to enjoy thanks to dear old dad and my 92 year old mother-in-law will find another to cut her grass and plow the snow...if someone in the younger gen knows how to drive a stick shift '91 Ram. Spending time with a nephew, now an electrical engineer, trying to teach him how to drive it was a bust. Reminds me of many decades ago trying to teach my future bride how to shift my '70 Cuda...also unsuccessful. lol

I thought the wife, two daughters and three sons. The wife was the worst. She did learn how to start the GTX that night and lay some rubber after I got tired of her trying to smoke the clutch.
 
Just found out we have some friends quarantined in S.C. for two weeks in a motel room. Makes one wonder whom picks up the tab for something like this? They went to a high school gymnastics competition. We questioned the logic with them last week before they left. Now 15 people are stranded miles from home because someone could not see fit to cancel the event and the points lost could have put the participants out of competitiontion if they had not attended.
This is just getting crazzier all the time.
Yea they only took enough luggage for the two day trip.

That would suck. WHy wouldn't they let them just go home?

Keep it from spreading. There are 4 states as of tonight that are ordering all bars/restaurants/night clubs closed to inside eating. This thing may just get crazy.

That is a silly question dont you think. 800 miles and hours of driving time with numerous stops. Plus the liabilities of possible contamination of someone else.
You get it? Or do you want to greet them at every stop along the way to make sure all facilities are decomtaminated and their needs are taken care of. Then heaven forbid if one of them are actually carrying this and they get into trouble along the way.
 
If you notice, and I'm not making light of the situation. The same groups of citizens are at risk as normal flu,if there is such a thing. The elderly,the chronically I'll, are at the highest risk. Just how is this any different than any other flu season?

The death rates are higher than the flu for the elderly and those with prior conditions, which makes it much more serious.

I didn't know that this particular strain of the virus has never been seen before.

There are many strains of the Coronavirus - this one is a newbie thus no protections have been developed for it. God help us if we don’t get something in the pipeline soon...

Not a silly question if you don't know how far away from home they were. It also doesn's say in the post above whether they were just exposed or were tested and found to have the virus.
 
well tomorrow is Monday, back to work at the shop. business as usual for me. I've been on a self inflicted quarantine for the last 2 days. I can't wait to get the hell out of the house. my asshole hurts from all the wiping LOL
