If you’ve flown over the past two months, odds are, you’ve been exposed to the virus.

I’ve flown every week but two over the past three months including a trip to Europe in early Feb. If exposed, i certainly never exhibited a single sign.

Officials said the employee is being treated at a local high school.
All schools and offices will be closed on Tuesday, March 10 with additional closures being decided.

“This closure will allow us to clean and sanitize affected schools as well as share additional details of our ongoing plan,” officials said in a statement. “Updates regarding this concern will be shared via additional emails and the district website.”

Exactly. And that's what we need to nail down, who is vulnerable and who isn't.

Maybe you have fiber leading out from your house to a junction box, but no fiber lines to the neighborhood / area?

Exactly. I have seen them working on getting it out of town but we have terrain here in the Ozarks and lots of rock. Sometimes solid rock many feet deep. Tough trenching and they have another 24 miles of hills and curves to get here, plus they'd only end up with half a dozen customers in "my neighborhood". Lots of cable to run with very little ROI. As an example, the closest grocery store is 18 miles away with 13 of that being gravel road. I pass three houses along those 13 miles.

When I left to do some shopping, US had 366 cases. Now it’s 603. Someone yesterday mentioned it doubling over the next 48 hrs. 22 deaths and only 8 recovered.

You don’t have to wait until day 90, right? Probably about day 80. Order on the earliest day and you’ll be a week or two ahead. Order early the next time and you’ll be ahead maybe 3 weeks. Keep doing that and you’ll have a small stock put away for emergencies.

Of course, you could say you dropped your brand new bottle in the toilet and be ahead 90 days.

ANd yet on a cruise ship with hundreds of people infected, the total transmission rate, after being stuck together with horrible quarantine procedures, was 17%. In other words, over 80% of the people on a ship that was a breeding ground for the disease did not contract the disease, even asymptomatically (410 of the 705 that DID get it were asymptomatic).

Is 17% a big number, or a small number? Did that one doctor cough in his hand, and then shake hands? Did the other doctor wipe his face, or pick up food with his now-infected hands? Did anybody else at the table get it? Anybody else in the conference?

It could be highly contagious, but we don’t know that. We have one really bad case in a nursing home where by their own reports they couldn’t have spread it more if they had been trying to do so, because they did so many things wrong.

I’m 53 and have three older sisters in Florida. Think I need to get in touch.

Maybe, it might look suspicious if I dropped all three bottles. Unfortunately it’s for my son, and they are critical for him

Not a good idea at all. Leaders lead.

President Trump is en route a “Trump Victory” roundtable fundraiser with 250 attendees in Longwood, Florida — essentially a venue for people to pay for handshakes. Expected to raise $4 million. White House says he’s not worried about contracting or spreading coronavirus.

I think this is bad optics by the President.

Did you see Cuomo yesterday? He was lying out his backside at every turn. He couldn’t start a sentence without first saying, “Look, blah, blah, blah. Look, uh look.” That’s either 1) he’s exasperated having to explain simple things to the ignorant masses or 2) it makes him sound like a thug wannabe.

Any material reduced to the nanoparticle scale has different properties than a larger sample. If in bulk form it does not chemically react in ambient conditions (tarnish, patina, oxidation) it is less likely to be antimicrobial. Oxygen interaction with a metal may be the key.

Not a good example, either. Over 60s are being told to social distance by the doctors and scientists he put in charge.
