    Terrible idea to go on a cruise . 
    If it gets cancelled we won’t go. Appreciate your input. 
    No need to thank me , it’s just common sense.

    Remember H1N1 in spring of 2009? That started here in US and most affected younger people that didn't have some of the anitbodies that we "older"  folks might have had.

    I understand the attempt at comic relief but the song thing is/has become disturbing to me and I'm having trouble seeing the humor in it.  I will exercise my right to no longer visit this thread.  Hope the shows go on!

    The 2009 Swine Flu pandemic peaked at 110000 cases here in the UK in July of that year and then peaked again at 80,000 cases in October. Nothing was cancelled, sporting events, festivals or anything of the like. Life went on without the mass hysteria that is surrounding this current virus.
    the MAIN difference in this country is different administrations in charge.....current admin has NO clue about how to manage this and the Obama admin had a cohesive plan.

    Push comes to shove I hope it’s just a postponement situation.  Imagine in a few weeks this will be pretty widespread, hope not.

    We knew this was coming for 2 months.  They should have started mass producing tests in January.  There is no excuse for where we are with tests today.

    Starting tomorrow, my Mediterranean cruise is offering cancellations with zero penalty. We were planning on canceling anyway, no matter what the penalties may have been. The credit will be good until end of 2022, I believe. I had a busy 2019, so I'm fine staying put this year.

    Coronavirus in NY: Head of Port Authority Rick Cotton has coronavirus

    https://nypost.com/2020/03/09/coronavirus-in-ny-head-of-port-authority-rick-cotton-has-coronavirus/

    The head of the Port Authority — who has been visiting local airports — has the coronavirus, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Monday.

    Cuomo said he himself “could have been in contact” with infected PA Executive Director Rick Cotton but hasn’t been tested because he’s an “improbable positive,” meaning he isn’t likely to have the virus.

    The governor didn’t say how Cotton may have contracted the potentially deadly bug but noted that the executive director “has been at the airports, obviously, when many people were coming back with the virus.

    Cuomo specifically mentioned JFK Airport in Queens.

    The tests are only effective for the people that take them.  83% infected with the virus don't even seek medical attention.  What good is a test for the majority of folks that will treat this as a respiratory illness and not even consider being tested?

    Remember H1N1 in spring of 2009? That started here in US and most affected younger people that didn't have some of the anitbodies that we "older"  folks might have had.

    This is not even close to the same virus. H1N1 didn't send 10-15% of patients to the ICU due to Respiratory / Organ failure.

    This pile of dog shit is tweeting that gas prices are down, and that is good for the consumer.

    Hey, your portfolio might be down 18%, but that tank of gas on the way home is gonna be $2 cheaper!

    It's literally impossible to hate anyone more than I hate Donald motherfucking Trump.

    South Korea should be the model right now on how to deal with this.  They are testing 10,000 a day and their morbidity rate is around .6% Obviously it helps.  This thing will have our hospitals at capacity in two months.

    "The one thing we really don't need is mass hysteria," said Dr. Robert Murphy, executive director of the Institute for Global Health at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine and an infectious diseases professor. "83 percent of people have such minor symptoms, they don't actually require any medical care at all. The 17 percent who do feel quite ill need to be evaluated, and some of them will require hospitalization and some of them will require intensive care."

    You can have all types of illnesses that go untested.  You do not have to go to a doctor to make an illness official.  What I was trying to state was that people will treat this as an illness on their own (not knowing it is corona and hence will not be tested).

    Last week my entire house fell ill with 3 of the 4 people in my house had a ever above 102 with some respiratory effects, along with other flu like symptoms. I went to the dr twice over a 3 day period, my wife went in twice because they only got worse after the first visit, each of our kids went in at least once. None of us were ever tested. I was kind of surprised. I highly doubted I had corona, but for being as paranoid as everyone says, I thought we would have been tested.
    Now if I was 99% I didnt have it, that 1% getting untested is who is going to end up spreading it the most

    These are all fluid numbers and many are estimates as there is a large population that may be affected and never be reported.  Bottom line is there is no reason to stop living or cancelling events.  If you think postponements and cancellations should occur, then why have they not happened for a bigger epidemic (FLU)?  

    Source CDC:
    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that so far this season, there have been at least 15 million flu illnesses for the 2019-2020 season, 140,000 hospitalizations and 8,200 deaths in the U.S.
