I am also worried that I might be hit by a asteroid at any moment. And what about a stray aardvark attack. I hear that the world’s ant population may revolt. I am stocking up on Raid. And you know those Chem trails are a threat.
GOOD GRIEF!

I am not changing anything on our upcoming trip to the West (Arizona, Utah, Wyoming, Montana, South Dakota) for three months. We will wash our hands more and avoid crowds when possible. A side effect that could be a plus is there will be less tour groups from China to deal with.

Also, it is still not absolutely certain that this is not an accidentally released weaponized virus from their P4 lab (shared by the military and civilian entities) which is very close to the animal markets in Wuhan. With the fact that the C.C.P. in China will not let either the WHO or the CDC outside of their hotels in China, where they are spoon fed information, I believe exactly ZERO of the official information coming out of China.
I heard a doctor on tv last week say the they have genetically tested the virus and it's source is natural, not man made or altered.

So its like the economy ???
If your neighbor looses his job its a recession

If you loose your job its a Depression. [emoji848]

I pray you dont die.

The news can [emoji849] and does make hysteria out of anything.

Its interesting the magnitude of deaths in Tennessee from a Tornado.

But not much national coverage or concern.
Ohhhhh, that was just some people in Tennessee [emoji848][emoji2958]

No and no. We have a trip scheduled to the Bluewater Key at the end of April and plan to be there. We will use our usual hygiene protocols that we normally do in the winter months. The world is not going to stop turning I hope, so we plan to keep living. Just be rational and use appropriate precautions.

Its starting to look more serious with many cases in Washington state. California has declared an emergency. This may be premature, but you gotta wonder if someone doesn't know something we don't. They certainly aren't treating it like the normal flu season. China had millions in quarantine. Heres what the CDC had to say yesterday. It says a pandemic is most likely. I don't like the sounds of that really. They aren't some hack news agency.

You really should take a look at this solid science website and scroll down just a bit to the yellow boarded video and watch this Documentary video titled "Hacking The Planet: The Climate Engineering Reality". It's not Chem Trails that so many have tried to coined it. It's Geo Engineering and is well proven and documented. Quite scary actually and the ramifications have been devastating to people, the weather and the planet as a whole.

If you love your country and the people around you, take a few minutes and watch it. It should give you a reality check.

Here's the link to the site and again scroll down just a bit to the yellow boarded video "Documentary, Hacking The Planet: The Climate Engineering Reality"

The virus doesn't penetrate or infect you through your hands. It infects you when you put your contaminated hands near your face. If you don't change that behavior gloves won't protect you. If you do change that behavior than there is no need for gloves.

I have been trained in best practices for working in contaminated areas.

Wear gloves if it makes you feel better but for day to day activities they won't make a difference.
OK, lets talk about it some more. I'm 50 years in medicine so we both have some good experience. Of course the outside of the gloves are contaminated. Their suppose to be. It's a given we don't touch out face. With gloves you don't have to wash your hands all day. You leave your house with clean hands and you re-enter with clean hands after you've removed the gloves. The presumption is everything outside is contaminated(which it is). This virus also lives on surfaces for several days, so gloves keep the contamination out of your home. If your out and about, and wash your hands, how many things will you touch before you re-enter your home? Check the mail? Oops your contaminated. What about that handle on your car? etc. Then of course this virus is readily transmitted from just water vapor from normal breathing; they don't need to cough. I respect your discussion.

I might make some travel plans if I got it.
I'd do most everybody and favor and spread it through the halls of congress and White house.
No more divided government acting like little children!
