^ Please stay safe and keep us posted, both of you. Coronavirus hasn't arrived here properly yet, but as one medical pundit said, "you can no more stop coronavirus than stop the wind", so I expect to be in your shoes fairly soon.

EDIT: Blimey! If Trump gets coronavirus, it'll go from hoax to deep-state conspiracy or Dem dirty-trick election ploy I suppose.

Coming back from Japan is going to be a **** show. It's pretty normal here, but I heard it's getting pretty crazy where I live.

I called to check on getting tested because I have a cough and shortness of breath but they said at this time it is recommended that I only self isolate because I don’t have a fever nor have I made contact with a known carrier.

Turned out the wife "only" had the coveted combo of the flu AND bronchitis at the same time. Sounds fun. Still spooky though. Some new cases in Indiana that are sort of nearby. The local grocery stores are completely out of any sort of disinfecting product. ****'s wack dude

Did she get that diagnosed? Did they rule out coronavirus by test or just through another diagnoses?

The whole of Italy is now under lock down, all public gatherings have been banned and Serie A has been stopped

Are the restaurants closed?

If I've learned one thing about medical practitioners over the years it's that they're about as good at their jobs as fast food workers.
