The CDC just released someone who tested positive on Corona into my community this weekend, and they went straight to one of our malls. San Antonio has already said that they are prepared to essentially put the city under martial law.

(Local news report on it and the mayor's response)

Wasn't the Medicare age requirement supposed to have dropped little by little until everyone was covered?

Boris has tried to calm fears over it here, think someone brought up if it spreads here if the military would need to get involved to lock down cities.

I'm going to over the next week or two stock up on things like packs of noodles, tinned goods and porridge/oatmeal. I've also talked with my mum and brother if anyone were to get infected to just follow medical advice over the phone and prepare self quarantine. I dunno how something like this would effect someone with type 1 diabetes but I'd be more concerned for my mum, brother, nephews and rest of my family.

Thankfully I live in a town rather then a city so much less populated here

Read Stephen King's, "The Stand" to know what to do.

Alright I've got Dayquil, Nyquil, Tylenol, and Mucinex to last me a couple weeks. Since I probably can't avoid this thing, I say BRING IT ON!

Proposed.  But Dem/Obama support for Romney-care blocked it in 2010.  The actual plan is to raise the Social Security retirement age until nobody lives long enough to get it!  Romney-care was bait and switch, insurance for care, and to bail out the bankrupt healthcare insurance companies.  As was cheap loans for college students, that can't be discharged in bankruptcy, was a bail out for the bankrupt colleges.

It was 'fun' at the local Costco.  Had at least a dozen people pushing the large flatbed carts, most full of cases of water and TP--and half these yahoo's were wearing masks. Clorox wipes have been sold out for 3/4 days already.  Long lines--it looked like people prepping for the end of the world.

Under President Sanders, the hoarders will have to send all their excess to China to help with our Chinese allies.

Same here in central NC.  After weeks of watching and waiting, it is finally here.

No reported cases in Ohio yet.

That said, it occurs to me that I placed an order for some fountain pens before the outbreak was recognized as a problem, and they're being shipped from $SOMEWHERE_IN_CHINA.  I doubt that acrylic pens can act as a carrier, but I am mildly concerned.

just incase do what I'm gonna do, stock up on things like canned foods, packets of instant noodles and soups, and oatmeal, stuff that'll keep for weeks incase you need to self quarantine
