Anyone seriously changing their habits of going places based on the virus?

I mean it doesn't really seem more dangerous than the flu and the average age of those dying is very high, but I'd still be a bit careful even if it were just the flu...

I'm going to be beyond mad if the ncaa tournament or music festival I want to go to get canceled. That seems extreme to me.

Considering my immediate area has cases already and at least one death, the schools are closed, and I may not be at work any time soon...yes.

I've got pasta, beans, canned and frozen goods enough to last me several weeks if need be - but that's my normal MO anyway.

One has been confirmed near me, too, no deaths though.

What's weird is everyone keeps saying there's toilet paper shortages, but I noticed today the store by me has a ton still.

Except it doesn't only kill 90 year olds. Li Wenliang was 34 years old. And there are plenty of other victims that are middle-aged as well.

The regular flu also can kill otherwise healthy people in rare cases

But Li Wenliang, a chinese whistleblower was found dead? How convenient

If you're even thinking about launching into a conspiracy theory, you can stop right the hell now.

People have claimed it would happen in the US, too, though. Stores are limiting how much people can buy, but so far I don't see any selling out. I have a lot already, anyway, due to a good sale a while back.

I don't go out as often simply because I prefer to cook my own meals at home 9/10 times, the virus doesn't make or break it for me.

No. I already work from home, and I'm not going to stay in all the time unless there's a quarantine... which I'm not anticipating.

Back when the bird flu hysteria was at a high, I didn't even watch the news. I frequented a pond I enjoyed lying down near. There were ducks, pigeons, etc, all around me as I took a nap.

I, on the other hand, was dating a Japanese girl who lived in the dorms with other international students and got the bird flu, which almost killed me.

Live in Washington. Costco has been sold out of toilet paper and water for weeks now. If it gets prevalent everywhere else expect much of the same. Amazon cant even keep up with orders right now.

I did remember reading where someone said he ordered some from amazon and they were taking a long time to ship.
