Possible case at my place of employment today. Individual alleged to be isolated and under care, samples currently being tested by CDC.

IronMonkey415 · 02-03-2020, 08:58 PM

NO NO NO!!!!

I'm getting a package that is sent from China. Now I have to intercept the package and deny it.

You you never know the package could carry it.

How close are you to me? Just wondering if I should be concerned or not.

If you got something from Wish was probably sent pre-virus.. like back in July.

Live in DC. Had our first child and parents were coming out this week. Decided to cancel to protect the little one. Stinks but not worth it.

I work out of bayside queens and I meet a lot of clients that are around the area. Definitely concerning if any confirmed cases..

It's only a matter of time. This is going to cause problems. People are too dumb/lazy to practice the proper hygiene needed to knock these viruses down.

Hopefully you weren't in the can when your coworker was blowing heat all over the bathroom.

Not just dumb/lazy. Mind-blowingly selfish.

Chinese woman inflected with coronavirus visited 10 tourist hotspots in Korea because she didn't want to waste her vacation. Now many of those spots had to shut down because of her.

Chinese woman took medication to reduce her fever so she could bypass temperature scan at airport in France, so she could go eat at a Michelin rated restaurant.

Should you be able to sue people like these if you get sick you think?

Still no update on the nearby person being tested.
Meanwhile, in Wuhan, they are incinerating 100 corpses per day....

All of this fear and talk about the Corona virus reminds me of the panic way back when the AIDS fear spread like wildfire and became much ado about nothing. Sure, small children, babies and people with weak immune systems should take extra precaution, but everyone else will be fine. Just my opinion.

Not the greatest analogy if you ask me.
Lots of otherwise healthy prior to infection adults dying. Not just the weak and compromised.

Like I said, just my opinion. I choose not to worry myself to death over it.
