England has declared coronavirus a “Level 4 incident” which is the highest level of emergency

WHO’s NOT on first.

This is getting ridiculous (WHO not calling a pandemic) when even NY is saying it’s community spread.

We take this, sometimes, during cold/flu season.

It will cause ‘die off’ if you’re colonized by anything bad though, so work your dose up gently.

Good idea about not using a cart. I was preparted to do that, yesterday, when I had to go into a store.

I carry a disinfecting wipe, in a baggy, in my pocket.

I can either wipe fingertips off, in pocket, or take wipe(s) out, if needed, to use.

I’m not going to trust store wipes (at cart area), anymore.

Great advice. But what about those who dont cook. I happen to know one of them types. Lol. And dont tell me to learn how. Lol.

I just got information on South Korea that indicates South Korea is not a good example of what the virus will do in the USA if the Fece transmission is a big factor during no symptoms stage.

South Korea still has open sewer systems, and a lot of residents still us open squatty toilet in the floor. This is in common with China and Iran. Not sure about Italy.

Opinions? Anybody been to the Italy? Bad or Good reasoning?

I don't have a company office right now (full time telecommute). When I had one, I placed the trash can outside the door and locked it on the way out. No need to enter. We had a professional thief with a TS clearance cleaning on my floor in 1993. He stole credit cards including mine. Ran up $40,000. Since I was a "victim", I took the time to track him down, notified "security". They put a surveillance camera in an office, left a credit card tucked under a blotter and had video of the theft. The guy got off with a hand slap. Perhaps being black, gay and 220 lbs of body builder figured into the lack of spine in the district attorney's office.

What is happening in Lombardy (Italy) is what happened in Wuhan. It is their ground zero.

Same for Daegu (S. Korea), and Qom (Iran).

They just have to keep the plant clean. Employees are the weakest link. We need virus free robots !

Not sure, but Venice could be in trouble if that’s the case.
