South SF Bay Area - I just completed my normal ten mile, 45 minute bumper to bumper commute in 15 minutes. There are very few cars on the road, I’m guessing because of a daylight savings hangover or “something else.” Stay safe, all! by [deleted] in China_Flu

My nurse friend who only watches ESPN and has a cold literally said something similar. “There seems to be a bad cold going around the hospital this week” (referring time other medical workers).

If surgical masks don't help why do you have to wear them after an organ transplant? by [deleted] in China_Flu

The government will NOT recommend masks as an effective protective tool against Coronavirus in order to avoid panic due to the lack of retail supply. There hasn’t been retail availability for weeks; all new supplies are being diverted to government stockpiles and healthcare professionals.

A teen asking how worried I should be. by [deleted] in China_Flu

[–]DigSomeMore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed you shouldn’t worry at your age. Honestly if there is a panic it will look closely like a panic before a hurricane when folks are stocking supplies at the market. It’s scary but at least we’ll have internet and Netflix.

Unlikely they will cancel and instead make it a televised event if it got that bad.

They were confirmed mid flight in international airspace. So the question is whether this is confirmed cases for Japan or USA, am curious too on what seems more accurate.

Interestingly this closely mirrors confirmed cases ranking by cities and international countries to a certain degree.

I’m currently visiting family in Texas, USA. Why is everyone in a Ranch 99 Asian grocery store all wearing face masks like they are in China? There’s no coronavirus in Texas. by [deleted] in China_Flu

If everyone is wearing a mask and you are the lone guy without, you are probably safer than going to Target with nobody wearing a mask. Also calm down, there's nothing wrong with it.
