Lets not forget, per the cdc, the regular flu kills between 12,000 to 61,000 annually in the US alone.

And that's an 'approximate' number, I'm not sure those numbers are accurate.

We won't know for sure how bad this really is until it's over with. The Spanish Flu went 2 years before it petered out. The 2nd year was worse then the 1st year as for the number of deaths. Just have to see how this plays out. But why take chances on finding yourself on a cold stainless steel table.

Actually, It's "Rusty's Little Shop of Horror's". Some weird chit has come and gone in it.

I've got even less room in the garage right now. Can't even swing a dead cat over my head without hitting something.

Actually, sometime last week, I was browsing through this thread and someone mentioned about being out of hand sanitizer in their area. I immediately went out, and bought a crapload of hand sanitizer, including multiple refill bottles, Clorox wipes, antibacterial soaps and multiple refill bottles for these also.

That's the kicker. According to the news, neither of the infected have any travel history (I'm not sure if this means they are not telling us, if it is unknown, or they just haven't traveled outside of the US). But, they are being "self-isolated", which again, I have no idea what that means. I doubt they are in quarantine, so who's to say they might go out for an errand and spread the virus.

I don't understand. How does it go from WA, to CA, skip TX (and the other states in between) and come to FL??

That's what I was reading to. The average person will recover even if they come down with this sh!t. I hear about the deaths linked with this, but I wonder about any recover stories.

How long was it before SARS/MERS passed after starting?

I went to the gym today and used unsterile equipment. Some members were coughing.

Please don’t compare this thing to normal flu.
  • A recovered person does NOT generate immunity to this. One can get reinfected.
  • It skips “normal” sequences of symptoms, directly attack the lungs, pneumonia like symptoms, which is not fun.
  • This thing leaves permanent damage, scar tissues in the lung. Small patch, a healthy lung can compensate the reduced effectiveness by working harder. Big patch may need lung transplant.

We really don’t know wtf this thing is yet, nor the real long term health implications. What one wants to do is one’s choice, just don’t under estimate it.
