Only person I've ever seen wearing a mask is one of the hairdressers at the haircut place I go to, but she wears it every year around flu season, so it's not that unusual.

In the article it says the medications for COVID-19 damages the heart and the virus already damages the lungs, so if you get it again you are already in a weakened state.I wonder if it leaves some genetic code behind that triggers that if it comes back in contact with it, it's a pretty strong evolutionary route it went down.
You get sick and survive and it makes you want to leave from the rest of the sick people taking with you whatever stranglers you have still spreading the virus more.
Any other viruses that have this trait?
Ah it's a side effect of the medication, my bad my dumbass should have read the article. Thank you for clarifying. That's a lot less scary ... by like 1%In the article it says the medications for COVID-19 damages the heart and the virus already damages the lungs, so if you get it again you are already in a weakened state.
Especially when the article doesn't give the sources and its through a doctor told his family member in another country who told the website in another country . It may be right but its a lot of somebody told me that ....My impression of that article is the author injected multiple but lesser known fact to prop up his new claim. I don't really find it trust worthy.
The newly confirmed infection was a male surgeon in his 50s who works at Saiseikai Arita Hospital in Yuasa-cho, Wakayama Prefecture.
Saiseikai Arita Hospital has suspended outpatient consultations from April 14 to prevent infection, and has so far encouraged patients who have used the hospital and their family members who have symptoms such as coughs to consult a newly established contact outpatient clinic.
Just remembered that today at the grocery store, I actually saw a white woman wearing a surgical mask! And some old white guy using a sanitizing wipe to pick up a basket instead of his bare hands. So that's 2 people I've seen wearing masks in the Boston area these past few weeks other than me.
Me too.I mean shit I santaize the shit out of my hands after touching a shopping cart regardless of Corona virus. God knows what lives on those things. We already know people don't wash their hands.
Mexicans, fasten your seat belts. Still not confirmed, but this could be it:

I need to know this Hawaii one. I'm literally going to Hawaii next week with a baby. Fuck manWell, look at the news from today. Dude in Japan with a confirmed case, just travelled there from Hawaii. Where was he before Hawaii? How long was he in Hawaii, what did he do there, how many people did he come into contact with, did any of them catch it from him, where did they go? 2 week lead time before any symptoms show, it feels like it's a hair's breadth away from exploding like... anywhere and everywhere. Trying to keep a lid on the anxiety but damn.
Luckily the guy in Texas was already under quarantine so that should curb any kind of spread there hopefully.
In a news conference Friday, state health officials said:
- The adult male traveler did not have any symptoms while visiting Maui from Jan. 28 to Feb. 3.
- But he did begin to exhibit "cold-like symptoms" while on Oahu from Feb. 3 to Feb. 7.
- On Oahu, he stayed at the Grand Waikikian by Hilton Grand Vacations. The state is still seeking more details on his exact itinerary, including which flights he was on.
- He was diagnosed with the virus on Feb. 8, after returning to Japan. Japanese news reports say that he had a fever of about 102 degrees.
An elderly Chinese tourist has died of the new coronavirus in France, French Health Minister Agnes Buzyn said Saturday, confirming the first fatality from the fast-spreading respiratory virus in Europe.
I don't think any of the published studies of CORVID 19 have been peer reviewed? It's all preprints because the demands of public health are moving faster than the peer review process can accommodate. Which isn't to say the peer reviews aren't necessary to solidify agreement on the soundness of methodology, etc. sometime down the road. Full complete understanding of COVID 19's epidemiology will take years or decades to fully explore.
I know this is just my limited perspective, but I kinda feel like the West isn't mobilizing enough, both with humanitarian assistance and in protecting its population against a spread. All feels a bit laisser-faire. Am I tripping?

Kate Gaynor, general manager and family medicine physician of Guangzhou United Family Hospital, told the Global Times on Saturday though there is not plenty of research yet on this particular new virus in general based on past studies, it is possible for a coronavirus to live, at least for some time, on paper.
"It is reasonable to say that a coronavirus might survive for days on money," she said.
China reported 2,641 new cases in the 24 hours through midnight Friday, raising the country's total to 66,492. Mainland China's death toll rose to 1,523.
The number of new cases was down from the 5,090 in the previous 24-hour period after authorities changed the basis for counting patients.
Numbers of new cases have fluctuated, fueling optimism the disease might be under control and warnings such hopes are premature.
There's plenty of work going on in the background, all the way from the front lines of healthcare to the national and international levels. I've personally been involved in writing guidelines for the small primary care clinic I work at. You're not seeing drastic action at this stage because there's simply no convincing signs that engaging in it would do more good than harm.
The way the numbers have been calculated has changed a few times this week, hasn't it? If so it's really difficult to come to any conclusions about whether it's slowing or accelerating its spread. It seems like every day or two we find out that the virus is more resilient than thought (in terms of temperatures and what surfaces it can survive on).New virus cases fall; WHO says China bought the world time
