I don’t usually care about the chicken littles with their sensational stories about things like this, but now they are causing the stock market to tank today.
BUYING OPPORTUNITY! This will pass and the market will recover. Go out there and find some bargains. You know, in case you beat the odds and survive.

What's the incubation time on this? Read it was like 14 days.
So it's pretty much everywhere by now huh?

I heard the government was told it was 20 days

Not concerned... I fired all the doctors that were clients and I don't eat Ramen nor do I frequent China. My risk exposure is low, gonna go buy some ammo just in case things get sideways.

Not very contagious until symptoms are present.

That just means that people infected could be ticking time bombs all over the world with such a long incubation period. Coronavirus sleeper cells.

So he is currently in your ER?
If so....that’s not a confirmed case. That would just be a suspected case that the providers would be working with their local public health department on how to collect the samples needed to be sent to the CDC lab.
Only the CDC can run the diagnostic tests to confirm this new strain of coronavirus.
So if your hospital lab has a positive coronavirus result...it just means they have one of the many other common strains of coronavirus out there.
Eta: I work in infection control....we’ve been very busy last couple days and had multiple calls and meetings with public health and local people that work for the CDC and all our emergency preparedness people about this situation.

Or just set them on fire
Can't be too careful
