Chinese take out delivery now as the delivery guy in the parking lot - he has the food on the front of his delivery vehicle - you approach, he backs away, you take the food. On the bag are the names of the guy that delivered the food and the guy that cooked it along with both of their temperatures.

“I think NYC will probably just slow walk their testing and test reporting...”

What’s going to be interesting is to see what measures the government takes to maintain control. I find the people in NYC and LA to be much more selfish, angry, and without a morale compass than the majority of Americans.

When the panic hits, people will be dangerous. I’d much rather be in Oklahoma or Missouri when the canned food is all gone off the shelves.

Leftists are seeking infection so to use themselves as biological weapons.

The Reddit coronavirus forum is hysteria and panic, combined with the nastiness of angry libs.

Wow, they are panicking over there.

And they are just starting to figure out the prepping stuff that we've been doing for ages.

Many of them are asking others if they should take their kids out of school. They stinking cannot think for themselves.

No need to panic, but it is helpful to remember that there is no wall between Italy and the rest of Europe, or Iran and the rest of the Middle East (mostly).

There were several weeks there where the virus had a chance to spread without travel restrictions.

You don’t want to confuse reported cases with potential actual cases—there is probably a couple of weeks lag time there, and another couple of weeks lag time before hospitals begin to feel the stress...

Bottom line—we are probably a couple of weeks away from having a decent idea of where we are on this...

”the French manufacturer of Tamiflu (5th largest worldwide), apparently has approval to sell it OTC in the US”

They can’t make 1% of what people will demand. If it’s useful at all, the entire stockpiles will be purchased by governments, and even they will be fighting over it..

FYI: Tamiflu has no effect on COVID19, which is a lower respiratory infection

And the irony, the Trump base will be just fine as the blue states, especially their cities will be in trouble. I'm thinking DJT wins the popular vote in November, and definitely in 2024!

Some of the biggest losing industries from this will be anything involving an audience - movies, sporting events, performances - and travel.

How long before we trust surfaces in aircraft, or the cleanliness of a motel room again?

How about that restaurant food? Fast food? Who touched it or breathed over it during preparation????

Taxis??? Lots of spread involving taxis. That is where NYC and much of the east coast will have issues, out west only in big cities.

I know I’ve got 3rd row seats for Shen Yun, and we aren’t going. Been waiting years to see that.

It will be interesting to see what industries flourish and which wither away now. Obviously medical will do well, and groceries- we as a nation will tend to stay home a lot more now.

Having spent a lot of time in Europe I’m aware of the geography.

“Bottom line—we are probably a couple of weeks away from having a decent idea of where we are on this...”

Useful information, thanks.

“After listening I knew that there is no way this will be contained. “

Some on this forum predicted containment lost...more than a month ago.

Yep...many here, on the CV threads, have been saying this could happen, after witnessing what was happening, in China.

Meanwhile...many others, here, were (and are)....

I understand, but if it's released OTC, it's going to sell big.

No, that is the level of panic we like.

Numbers are good. Not enough people use them.
