I've lived through the SARs, bird flu, swine flu, Ebola, Zika etc panics and what's going on with this virus is something I've never experienced in my life before.
It's 'cause of the media bringing out the fear in everyone.

No this is something real. There's no country on Earth that would willingly damage itself by shutting down borders or quarantine entire cities unless some serious shit was about to go down.

So I don't want to jinx us, but I feel like the only surprising news story that could happen now is an alien invasion.

And coronavirus will be what kills the aliens!

An event of that scale will require the approval of the government, And now the Spanish government is officially backtracking on it's decision.
But if the Spaniards still insist on partyin' and rockin', it means an entire nation agree with your opinion.

Wasn't there threats of nuking if they didn't quarantine? That probably influenced them to quarantine.

Well, thanks, Spain. At least you're the only one who accepts that it's just another flu

Someone at our main work site tested positive for the virus yesterday. People travel between there and where I work constantly, including my boss who was at both places yesterday. Most of our workforce is 50+ years old just from eyeballing it

Oof, yeah.

I'm pretty introverted so the idea of having nothing to do for a few weeks is pretty nice. Though I worry I'll start to get a little stir crazy if it's like 3 weeks of working form home and never leaving. <_<

I have a few serious health conditions so Ive been keeping myself in a plastic bubble lately. I am also dependent on social security disability income because of these conditions. Do you guys see the economy getting bad enough to a week point where they pause social security payments? I have zero idea how that stuff works.

No government agencies will continue to operate, most federal agencies are preparing as many people as they can for telework. Social Security payments will be continue processing as usual.

I think people need to have a little perspective and take it more seriously. There are plenty of people who are never able to leave the house, some that can never leave their beds. Staying at home for 2 weeks or more really isn't a big deal, especially when you can still walk around the place and you've got Internet. Just pisses me off a bit seeing people moaning about having to stay inside for a couple of weeks when it's to protect others when I'm in a relationship with and living with and caring for someone who hasn't been physically able to leave the house for over a year and they just about cope and don't moan.

seattle is close to canada (at least to me).

Twas me. I ended up going and no one was there... maybe like 10 other people in total. I took extra precautions and they had hand sanitizer stations set up everywhere. And extra employees working thoroughly cleaning all the equipment.

I just came home and started to develop a cough. Telling myself its just allergies lol
