I heard that there are 500 workers building that hospital. Not a tent.

One person posted a link on here indicating that the airline "screening" process involves touching the forehead to detect fever. Since the incubation period after infection to symptoms is around 14 days, that's clearly useless. The world is in real trouble.

I am sorry but my Fear Meter is near Explode as things are. I am not going to worry about the latest WE’RE ALL GUNNA DIE! stories. As you say, CBob, it’s another flu. It will kill more or fewer people than existing flues but I will give as much energy worrying about it as I do any other one — which is to say, none.

An unfair thing it is not just the Chinese in China who are going to suffer, but also the Chinese shops and restaurants spread all over the world. Innocent victims.

Just take some simple precautions. Order some white cotton inspection gloves with either an antiviral or barrier hand cream.They often come in packs of 10, are not expensive, and washable if you are careful. Wearing nitrile or latex gloves in areas of possible exposure is just way too uncomfortable. If you order facemasks, make sure they are HEPA rated, much smaller filter than general dust masks. Never touch your eyes or nose when you are out.

The post I am responding to with this, is gone. It had stated that the 1918 flu pandemic killed 1/3 of the world's population.

"World population in 1918: 1.8 Billion. The 1918 flu pandemic infected about 500 million people around the world, killing 50 to 199 million of them. This was 3-5% of the world's population at the time. This was one of the deadliest natural disasters in human history."

I might have been a little git concerned about this, since I have kids who travel a lot, then I saw this:

Anything that traitorous bastard says is a lie, he would not know the truth if it bit him in his ass, trust me, he is one of my senators, so I unfortunately know more about him than I want to.

There are commentaries about this virus all over the place. However, it doesn’t hurt to be on the cautious side. That is, avoid crowds, wash your hands often, stock up on food and other necessities. It is too early to tell how serious this might be but WHO and the US government are taking extra precautions.

"Two residents of a Hong Kong apartment building have fallen ill with the new coronavirus even though they live on different floors from each other, prompting concerns that the virus may spread through building pipes, according to news reports. But how exactly would the virus spread through pipes?"



"Here's how that could happen: Typically, bathroom drains have a U-shaped trap that prevents fluids and odors from coming back up, but at Amoy Gardens, officials found that air would flow backward through the drains under certain circumstances, according to a Washington Post article published during the 2003 outbreak.

"When the bathroom was in use, with the door closed and the exhaust fan switched on, there could be negative pressure to extract contaminated droplets into the bathroom," Yeoh Eng-kiong, Hong Kong's secretary for health, welfare and food, said at the time, according to the Washington Post. "Contaminated droplets could then have been deposited on various surfaces such as floor mats, towels, toiletries and other bathroom equipment."
