Now I get it

She is 90 and has breathing problems.  No tests available for her as she doesn't qualify. Luckily she has a pretty good immune system. It is very very wide spread in Seattle.

Sorry to hear that and wish you Mom a speedy recovery!

Canada is talking about closing its borders to international travellers. I imagine if you hold a canadian passport they will let you in under quarantine however if they block all international flights there would be no way to get there.

Interesting article on how many people show very little symptoms and hardly realize they have anything.

Have not yet heard about Ajijic, Chapala and Jocotepec

A little comic relief...

Geez, you guys are no fun. How about this one?

It's too bad he tested negative. I rest my case.

What’s the latest on Ted Cruz and Lindsay Graham? They’re both self isolating. They should know by now if they’re positive or not.

Hopefully they are in the process of dying.

....I'm getting some idea of Party affiliation here, am I not?!?  

No, just concerned. We have to start thinking about replacing them.

My comment was directed more to HoneyBee than Thee....

Finally, some statistical analysis and charts of facts regarding death rates, listed by age and sex.
This information generally aligns with what I have commented previously in another thread.

Based on all 72,314 cases of COVID-19 confirmed, suspected, and asymptomatic cases in China as of February 11, a paper by the Chinese CCDC released on February 17 and published in the Chinese Journal of Epidemiology has found that the risk of death increases the older you are, as follows:

COVID-19 Fatality Rate by AGE:

AGE	DEATH RATE
80+ years old	14.8%
70-79 years old	8.0%
60-69 years old	3.6%
50-59 years old	1.3%
40-49 years old	0.4%
30-39 years old	0.2%
20-29 years old	0.2%
10-19 years old	0.2%
0-9 years old

We are in shutdown here in sunny Jacksonville, FL. My wife and I tried to buy water and TP and there is none to be had anywhere. It is really wild. Schools, libraries, churches, public venues, all closed. They are also considering a ban on restaurants and bars. Limits on public gatherings at 150.

Government, in general, is slow to react to emergencies, whether Dems or Republicans are running things. Let's be civil and tone down the political rhetoric. This is serious business we have here.

Since posting the original post, things are really deteriorating rapidly. It is very likely now that we will not be able to come to Ajijic in the near future, given the present travel circumstances. Bummer. We still have two months before our trip so we are taking a look and see approach.

CB's chart is very telling. The older you are, the more health issues you have and the the more likely you are of contracting corvid-19 and dying from it.

We hope all of you will be spared from a major epidemic of corvid-19.

For those of us traveling north,, this is worth knowing. You can now bring a larger thing of hand sanitizer with you.

TSA allowing Hand sanitizer

This was posted on TOB... I guess I should have posted it on the hoarding thread.

I’m wondering if alcoholism is going to spike up. What else is there to do when you’re cooped up?

Sex

Alcohol consumption would be a waste of a good hand sanitizer. ;)
If push comes to shove, I have a lot of e-books to read. And playing cribbage on-line. I've also got a list of me-do projects like painting window frames, gardening, trimming, potting etc.

No, nothing to do with politics and Party affiliation, but with human race and human scum.

Nearly 400 people have died in Italy from COVID-19 in the last 24 hours. It would be interesting to know where they were on this statistical break down.

Mainly over 65 years of age.
