I think Pence said just now that there are some positive, so they are bringing the GP into a ‘noncommercial port’ and testing all 2700 passengers plus crew. Those positive will be mandatory quarantined.

Looks like Gilead is going to get some of those trial enrollees they’ve been looking for

I went for the pasta over rice, too. We don’t eat rice that often.

Found this....

💥💥💥💥💥💥💥Apparently The CDC had to wait for CHINA to send over the "sequencing of the virus" before we could develop testing criteria. CHINA GOT 1ST CASE LAST OCTOBER AND DIDN'T INFORM USA TILL FEBRUARY!— NoMoreChaos. 💥🇺🇸💥 (@Mm72931622) March 6, 2020

And...

It's obvious that the journalists making fun of @POTUS do not understand what sequencing, strains is with viruses. You mean there are different strains... CDC did sequencing so they know who has what kind of Coronoavirus strain... #education #CoronaVirus— nycphotog (@nycphotog) March 6, 2020

So....Reno guy who is now presumptive positive, and at home....didn’t have to quarantine?

Were folks left off the boat before (CV) trouble was known?

Diamond Princess - Japan let everyone go at 14 days if they were negative. So the people who refused to airlift with the rest, got released just a few days later.

Grand Princess - the CV was undiscovered on the previous cruise and wasn’t discovered until after the current cruise was on the way back from Hawaii, best I can understand

(haven’t heard any followup about Westerdam folks)

I heard thru the grapevine that the lab that sequenced the virus Jan 9th was shut down immediately after by the CCP who were furious it was shared. No word on what happened to the scientists

“Quick !

Actually, that might not be a bad idea. I hadn’t considered it. Thanks.

My problem is that the girls who cut my hair are Asian, and sure enough, the cute one that I like was breathing on me when I had my cut 2 weeks ago. I did have it cut a bit shorter then (knowing that I wasn’t going to be going back there for a while), but now I really do have to make some decisions. As part of my prep a decade ago, I did get some hair cutting equipment (would be dumb not to)...but my wife has no experience with it, so I may look better shaved. I guess she can try first. But, for now, I’m good for another month before I start to really look barbaric.

Related. (New to me, anyway, but I’ve noticed crackers going rancid MUCH sooner than they used to. It’s the oil(s) used in making them.)

There ought to be you tube videos on hair cutting techniques.

That said, we are all likely to be in the same boat soon enough.

Have been wondering about the guys....and, haircuts.

Hubby gets his hair cut pretty often....where I can go for weeks, and longer, if need be.

I have trimmed his hair, before. Just in areas where the hairdresser missed.

Hmmm....better break out the youtube vids :-)
