My main concern as well. Thankfully I dont need heat or a/c but water is huge. We have bottled water but not enough if it's long term. I may need to get more.

What part of california are you in? I'm in san diego

If anything, we'll be in a drought again in no time if a quarantine lock down takes place.

I'd be fine catching the disease but many of the people I could potentially spread it to could legitimately die from it, but yeah I guess it's funny

yeah then go make a topic about how scared you are about any of your loved ones driving to work tomorrow, cause they are more likely to die from that than this virus. But go ahead and stock up on canned food and water

Do you know what the word "immunocompromised" means or are you just intentionally acting like an ignorant shithead?

Obviously they're more likely to die in a car crash. Doesn't mean I can't worry about them dying some other way.

Theres several conspiracy theories going around too.....

I cant blame them since this whole situation is weird

Im never one to believe in conspiracy theories but I definitely think this was man made that escaped from a bio lab somehow. I dont believe the theory of it being for population control.... but the fucked up thing is you cant even rule that out.

Most theories on Asian News media is that the Military Bio Lab near Wuhan created this and intended to use it on the HK protestors. But somehow they screwed up as always and it spread to the nearby Open Air meat market where low standards of sanitation are practiced.

Quiet way of diverting media attention away from protesting without overt forceful methods in front of a global media watching.

A method of punishing all the HK protestors and "Sending a message".

China doesn't give two shits about transparency.

The CCP(Chinese Communist Party) deliberately hides things because it only cares about staying in power by all means necessary.

The average Chinese citizen has ZERO methods of rebelling against the CCP.

The VERY FIRST major act that Mao Ze Dong did in his Communist revolution after using the people to defeat "Chiang Kai-Shek's" forces and driving them to Taiwan was to confiscate arms from the civilian population and ban them from ever owning arms.

Now the average Chinese citizen has ZERO means of fighting back and are subject to the CCP's every order, command, decree, whim, & fancy.

That's why there was the initial 8 weeks cover-up before they finally admitted to things.

They cared more about social stability and harmony.

Ah yes, meanwhile America doesn't care about stability and harmony at all, they put the safety of its citizens first and foremost... oh, wait:

https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/485037-whistleblower-claims-hhs-did-not-train-workers-caring-for-coronavirus

A whistleblower claims the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) sent workers to receive the first Americans evacuated from China during the coronavirus outbreak without proper training or protective gear, The Washington Post reported Thursday.

The complaint was reportedly filed Wednesday with the Office of the Special Counsel.

The whistleblower is a senior HHS official based in Washington seeking federal protection after alleging they were unfairly reassigned after raising concerns about the safety of these workers, according to the Post.

That looks more like "Incompetency" than lack of caring, unless you can prove that they deliberately sent that person to be a potential infection victim knowingly.

This is almost eerily similar to how the CCP handled it in China. Fucking unreal.

Well, if that were the case, they should be apologizing to the whistleblower. Instead, the whistleblower had to hire a lawyer and is seeking protection because they are attempting to retaliate and silence him:

https://www.cnn.com/2020/02/27/politics/hhs-whistleblower-coronavirus/index.html

A whistleblower at the Department of Health and Human Services is seeking federal protection after complaining that more than a dozen workers who received the first Americans evacuated from Wuhan, China, lacked proper training or protective gear for coronavirus infection control.

"We are hopeful that Congress and the OSC will investigate this case in a timely and comprehensive manner," Ari Wilkenfeld, a lawyer for the whistleblower, told CNN. "This matter concerns HHS's response to the coronavirus, and its failure to protect its employees and potentially the public. The retaliatory efforts to intimidate and silence our client must be opposed."

My coworker is in quarantine right now. Won't say what we do but we are in the medical field. He's been gone for a couple of months overseas and was in South Korea for a day.

Now he's 7 days into quarantine and will be back after next week... 14 days.

Part of me is hoping the shit hits the fan before he gets back just so that I dont have to be potentially exposed to him.

14 day quarantines aren't enough

An eye doctor in a big hospital in Oslo, Norway, visited Italy last week and is now comfirmed to have Corona.
He have met 100 patients, mostly elders, so this can be interesting.

I like how health officials in the u.s. are just letting confirmed coronavirus travel freely after they "started feeling better but then symptoms returned within the same day"

It's like they're intentionally trying to infect as much people as possible. The Oregon case where they allowed the student to go back to school.

Everything I can find just says he's sick without specifying the sickness, but Italy's being hit pretty hard so it wouldn't surprise me if it's the virus.

As of Monday, cases of COVID-19 had been found in just 29 countries. But thousands more diagnoses were confirmed this week, including two spikes that were tied to Italy and Iran.
"Outside China, there are now 4,351 cases in 49 countries, and 67 deaths," WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in a briefing Friday morning. "Since yesterday, Denmark, Estonia, Lithuania, Netherlands and Nigeria have all reported their first cases."
Tedros said, "We have now increased our assessment of the risk of spread and the risk of impact of COVID-19 to very high at a global level."
Dr. Michael Ryan, executive director of the WHO Health Emergencies Program, said he's encouraged by signs that the coronavirus can be contained and he cites that as one reason the outbreak shouldn't be called a pandemic.
The new risk assessment, Ryan said, "is not in order to alarm or scare people. That is to get countries to understand" that when they get their first case of the coronavirus, they have the ability to control its spread.

Scary thing about every single new case is it's not like they just got the virus a minute before being tested. Every single person they've interacted with for days, and every person THEY'VE interacted with, and so on and so on could be infected too.
