IIRC, there was a very high fever—103ºF, I believe. A fever that high in an adult can cause all sorts of additional manifestations.

Yes, it happened in China, but I had not read about it elsewhere.

Germany is heating up - they’ve closed the cat houses:

BERLIN (Reuters) - Berlin and Cologne are to close all bars, clubs, cinemas, theatres and concert halls with immediate effect as Germany ramps up its efforts to slow the spread of the coronavirus.
“The Berlin Senate decided today that from now on all public and non-public events in Berlin with 50 or more participants are forbidden,” the capital’s city state government said in a statement.
Museums, brothels, swimming pools and gyms would also close in the capital, which - like other German states - is shutting schools next week until the end of the Easter vacation. The tiny state of Saarland in the west did the same

It’s not clocking in and clocking out.

You literally can’t write a written order in any American hospital any more, and if you did, the computers that carry out the orders, dispense meds, regulate pumps and ventilators, etc couldn’t carry it out.

Interesting. It’s impossible to keep track of all the anecdotal stories being told now that people are wondering if that “strange flu” last December might have been this virus.

I was at Costco on Thursday. Not as bad as some, but out of TP, I got the last set of (commercial) paper towels (not Bounty), low on water, etc.

The clerk said they had got 17 pallets of TP on Wednesday and it sold out in 20 minutes.

I don’t know if this has been mentioned earlier but Christian Wood of the Detroit Pistons has tested positive for the virus. The Pistons were one of the teams that played the Utah Jazz within about a week of when the Gobert positive was made.

She looks quite obese - definitely a risk factor.

The entire Toronto Raptors team has been tested and have had negative results. They were the last team to play the Utah Jazz on Monday before the NBA season was suspended.

“Run the numbers” is what my mean and tough B school prof would say when someone spoke up in class—and hadn’t run them.

He pounded it into our heads.

40 day quarantine, think these millenials would rather sacrifice themselves to a live volcano. Lol. Cool info though.
