MFBKBass5 03/13/20 12:29:27 PM #1:	Its a 10 hour drive across Texas...and Ive definitely been in contact with someone whos treated Coronavirus patients. It doesnt seem wise to go. He said like 150 people have confirmed as of a few weeks ago. Hes more of a coworker than a friend, but weve worked together for 3 years now and he was nice enough to invite me. But with this pandemic, it doesnt seem wise to drive 10 hours for this wedding. Especially when I might have the virus. --- !!!!!!!!! https://imgur.com/DzJSPWA <cite>MFBKBass5 posted [p:935624223] in Would I be...
