Dear Y'all,
I'll just add that if you scroll back a few days to my previous post in this thread, I'm gonna say "I told you so" to anybody that said "oh the flu kills more people and this is alarmism and media hype."
This thing hasn't had the chance to do it yet. And we shouldn't let it have that chance.
Coronaviruses tend to be pretty cagey, and we don't even know what this mutation is capable of at this juncture, but precaution is never a bad thing.
Wash your hands. Masks are for keeping it the virus in, not for self-protection. If you have healthy lungs, you're probably not even going to know you have it, but you're also a disease vector and you should be aware of it.
Signed,
Dude who legitimately might have it, needs to go take photos in the AM, but also has a has done his due diligence (a bit of science rubs off on you after working 6 years in medical publishing).
Wash yo hands. Possibly a hilarious QBN Mug post in the morning.
- And I should just add that the medical community is not just worried that it is going to make bad headlines and have a big fatality count.garbage
- There are concerns about latency periods, viral dormancy, etc. It will cool off in the next few months, but we're nowhere close to a vaccine..garbage
- ..and if it's not stomped now, we will be dealing with round 2 in the fall.garbage
- ffs with a 27 day incubation period it's probably everywhere already. we just don't know it yet.hans_glib
- a bloke i know who lives(d) in northern italy has just brought his family back to blighty to escape it... and probably brought the virus with them.hans_glib
- ^ spread the love man!! But yeah, maybe that's not so wise.Ianbolton
- @hans You're kind of missing the point, and 27 days with a few asymptomatic weeks is kind of why this is a big deal.garbage
- God didn't push a button on a timer and now it's 27 days or bust. This has been a major worry since December, and here we are now.garbage

In other crazy news, in Wuhan, China are welding doors shut to apartment buildings. If stuck inside I hope you got enough food and that your job understands your situation, if you were outside at the time, congrats, you are now homeless!
- Yeah this I don’t understand. Do they just jail people like that and then leave the scene? Or do they supply them with stuff?NBQ00
- This has been going on for the past few weeks. Mostly as people were not obeying the stay home rules.shapesalad

Radical idea:
how about instead of wearing fucking useless face masks and washing hands 200 times a day (btw invest in soup companies stock!)
WHY NOT EVERYBODY WEARING FUCKING GLOVES!
This thing is mostly spread by touching and direct contact - not airborne yet - with inflected people and surfaces...
I mean, duh...
- *soap companies stockgrafician
- but sure, also soup companies, soup is good for a coldgrafician
- then you have dirty gloves that you still touch shit withGuyFawkes
- So you touch the toilet door handle wearing gloves, then eat a McD’s holding burger and fries with gloved hands and all is ok? Many questions. Much confused.shapesalad
- NO! Wear gloves, throw away gloves, get new gloves and so on. Not face masks! Bet we can cut the spread by 50% at leastgrafician
- Why not 99%?deadsperm
- because then you have to wash your gloves constantlymonospaced
- ^ this. and dirty gloves will still make you sick when you touch your face. also illusion of protection -- masks have the same downside.sarahfailin
- You don't see the potential of this cure, we all doomed!grafician

- you don‘t get the it through your skin, but mouth and eyes. masks are used to protect others from your potential infection, not to protect yourself.uan
