Illinois did the no dine in for restaurants and bars as well. My kids are out of school as of today too.
I work in a different state, in an office with 1200+ people and yeah I'm concerned about it. My company said Saturday they aren't considering working remote. The team that works for me, and myself could 100% work remote with no interruption.Comment

So this all started with a species of bat in China? a lab experiment? terrorist act? I really would like to know, I’m not hearing any details on the origin of how this all began, or anything I am trying to research not knowing what is truth and what is false.Comment

It's not a lab experiment or terrorist act.
You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...Comment

Not sure of the accuracy of the video, but it appears to explain the origin & path of the virus:
What I don't see mentioned as a possible contributing factor is the over-use of Antibiotics in Animal Farming (Crowded Pens) & How common it is to use Antibiotics outside the US for minor issues like the Common Cold, that are causing these strains to adapt & evolve into Super-Strains that resist current Antibiotics & Vaccines.
...BUT...I am NOT a Doctor NOR a Scientist...just curious.Last edited by WannabeMego; Mar 17, '20, 10:37 AM.Everyone is Entitled to MY Opinion...Your's, not so much!Comment

by the way I don’t think it’s racist to simply state that the origin of this virus is down to the extremely questionable open markets and the governments initial response to the outbreak.
No doubt some people could use that as a basis to further racist/xenophobic views but just stating that they need to make changes and accept some responsibility isn’t in my view any way unreasonable.
this video goes some way to explain the origins of this outbreak and the reasons for the rise of the wetmarkets

It's a billion people. They've tried everything as a food dish. The crux of the problem is they don't have the processing standards the west and some of the other eastern countries have, so you have a cross-breeding of animal bacteria and viruses. If you want a dose of shock, go looks at pics and videos for wet markets. You have open cages of different animals stacked on each other. I didn't realize until this week how dangerous bird, especially duck, poop is. It's more bacteria and viruses than waste. So that gets dropped onto secondary animal, like a pig or something, and they eat it. Then people eat them...and here we are.Comment

Once you become aware of wet markets you wont be wondering how this happened. You will be surprised it has not happened more often. In the US we generally are behind in food safety in comparison to the stricter levels of Europe. But really nothing compares to the dystopian hell scape nightmare of Chinese wet markets.You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing.

Many pandemics and epidemics have their origins in viruses that have circulated between animals for years before making the species jump to humans. SARS, MERS, the Spanish Flu, even the Bubonic Plague originated with a species jump from animals to humans. This exchange dates back to when humans began domesticating animals for food and companionship and, consequently, spending a lot more time around those animals. We have yet to develop any resistance to the new-to-humans virus or disease. If that particular strain happens to also be easily transmitted... well, you get it.
EXTRA NERD NOTE- The Spanish Flu did NOT originate in Spain. It's not clear where it started but scientists think it MAY have started in Great Britain, the U.S. or, yes, you guessed it- China. It was assumed it came from Spain because that's where most of the early reporting came from there. Spain, who remained neutral during WWI, did not see many of the same war-time media censorship of other countries who wanted to lessen the severity to already war weary nations. Spain was free to fully report on all the gory details. Of course, reporting on it lead to accusations that simply reporting on it was sensationalizing the problem and, since the source of the reports were Iberian, it was assumed that the source of the disease was also Spain.WANTED - Solid-Boxed WGSH's, C.8 or better.Comment
