There are currently 69,036 confirmed cases worldwide, including 1,666 fatalities.
Unutterable horsesh*t.
Excellent/saved
Probably true in a viral-saturated environment like an ER in WaHoo or whatever you call it lol. But in an ordinary environment, mask effectiveness would be much longer.
Similar issue with mask or goggle fit -- much more critical in saturated environment than casual surroundings.

So many things 3D printed now, or at least prototyped using that technology.
Cheers FRiend!!
Yes - but 80-90% comes from China. 3D printing drastically reduces lead time.
It seems so much of our JIT supply chain is what can force shortages in a black swan moment.

I looked at white rice in Costco yesterday. Was surprised none of it from China, although much of China is too far north/unsuitable for growing, I think. The rice products originated in California, Vietnam, and other SE Asia countries. But if those trading partners get knocked out as well we’re down to the domestic (CA and maybe SE?).
Best article on the subject of ‘supply chain disruption’ Ive seen.
Lots of depth.
Thanks for posting...my DD is doing grad work in infection control/infectious diseases...
ok, I found some CDC numbers:
Feb 14 - The CDC says 42 of the 50 states now have at least one person under investigation for the coronavirus, none of them in the south.

I was talking with a gal that works for the government. They are doing some training and education stuff just in case - typical stuff. Making sure people can work from home if need be, etc.
The main guy running it also is dealing with folks in China. He told them to multiply the numbers coming out of China by 7.

Good article - thank you for posting.
if you add the 600 or so federal quarantines to the above post for a total of those under observation, it should be close to 1000 being observed
Quayle deleted the link. An exercise in creative writing.
If Im close (±15%) Ill tell you how. So far, so good.
CAVEAT: According to China, no one died today.
Make of that what you will, but consider:
Looking at the three data point from before they were caught cheating last time, they exactly overlap to the current three data points!
Are they reusing the same the rate is flattening algorithm to cheat again?
Shaking their hands and hugging, right?
What about those that already slipped through the screening and are on planes, back here?
Stupid is as stupid does. Maybe he can now teach his people the Corona dance steps.
