No Ice Hockey Champion this year because they have canceled the playoffs.
Every Event with 1000+ people has been cancelled.
Soccer matches without supporters, the play in an empty stadion.
Screw the coronavirus, we're letting this infiltrate everything. People it's going to spread regardless of weather I can go to a football match or not, this is scare mongering.

I swear people have lost their damn minds! There is not one stinking roll of toilet paper to be found in my town. Wtf.

I saw an ad in local classified group saying "hey, I have plenty tp and will sell and deliver some to you for double the price I paid." I am pretty sure they were not joking.

I saw a picture from our Home Depot that showed one woman with the big flat carts, 2 of them...one was loaded with tp. Stacked up like landscaping bricks. And one cart stacked with bleach. Plus she had a cart full of other stuff.

Is this going on everywhere?? I mean come on. I had to go out to pick up some prescriptions this morning. Pharmacy was well stocked on otc stuff. Then went to grocery store for few things and food was all well stocked. Toilet paper aisle bare.

WTF. People who run out and need some aren't going to be able to get any. I. Don't. Get. It. Common sense much??
Imagine if something actually serious was to happen? Whole danm place is insane, can we go back to Brexit now? :)

So never read or watched the stand, so if you breath in caption tripps it’s a immediate death, expect for like the few people who were chosen to survive it?
Not quite. It's just a virulent form of the flu. But COVID isn't the flu. It's a virus we haven't been exposed to before in this iteration. I'm not panicking but being cavalier about it isn't the way to go either.

I see the FDA, who is monitoring potential drug shortage due to the coronavirus, is issuing a list of potential shortages due to the disruption of the manufacturing process and supply chain in China. There seems to be almost 3,000 drugs on the list. It’s not a major threat at this point but they say if the outbreak threatens India’s drug production we’re pretty much screwed, especially with antibiotics.
