Makes you wonder..they just announced case in Rome with others being monitored. He gets into crowds a lot.
Yeah: upper and lower respiratory infections. I’d forgotten that distinction.
Still, they compete for the same population it seems.
Covid also seems more deadly, though evidence is still scant.
Well, I’m trying to make prepping fun. I bought numerous cans of for-sale Chef Boy-Ar-Dee products this evening. Also previously brought for-sale tins of spam in various flavors and numerous for-sale cans of Bush’s baked beans, grillin’ beans, etc. The Chef Boy-Ar-Dee stuff’s gonna take me back to my childhood if/when I’m quarantined!
I suspect, since Americans are typically working from a much healthier baseline than the Red Chinese, that we’ll have 10% serious cases AT MOST.
We were in Rome in October. If he went to any tourist spot they are crammed in like sardines...long lines, literally shoulder to shoulder in the sistine chapel and St. Peter's square when the pope talks. It's possible the pope has it too!
Nice! As much as I hate carbs, they’re damn cheap calories...so be sure to have them!
Hope so. But i also have to think we have many more old people warehoused in nursing homes and senior citizen centers and the death toll there would be extremely high.

The point is, they’re calories, too. If you’re cooped up at home, you need the calories.

SEOUL, South Korea — The wife of an American soldier who tested positive for the new coronavirus also has been infected, the military said Saturday as the total number of confirmed cases in South Korea neared 3,000.
The soldier was the first U.S. service member to contract the pneumonia-like illness, which has spread rapidly since first appearing in China late last year.
His wife has been in self-quarantine since Wednesday, when her husband tested positive, according to U.S. Forces Korea.
“She is currently being transported to a U.S. military hospital where she’ll be in isolation under direct medical care and supervision from U.S. military medical providers,” USFK said in a press release

Thanks for reminding me. Gotta do that on Monday too.
I highly recommend this video for clarity.
He puts out videos daily. So, you can go back and watch previous ones.
I think that one was in Washington State, so maybe it’s related to the one we’re about to learn about though.

I’m sure this has been mentioned already but ...
They say that getting the regular flu shot gives you a layer of protection against the flu. I went to my local pharmacy today in the grocery store. Since I’m a senior, I have M Medicare so the shot is free.
Takes a minute and makes me feel a tiny bit safer.
