I am sadly shocked that another cruise ship was quarantined and most of my shock was that people would choose to go on a cruise ship after hearing everything about the last poor outcome cruise ship quarantine. I now hear that they are looking at mandating a stoppage of cruise ships for a period of time.
I’ve never been on one myself, but from here they look like any tall hotel or 10 story apartment building you see on land. Is there something about them that makes germs spread faster than any other tight dwelling?
Pack 1,000-3,000 people on one ship, with people eating 3+ times daily in sit-down restaurants and buffets, gambling, watching shows, etc. Add a large crew, who are packed into tight quarters when not working. Lots of retired people. There is a lot of traffic indoor traffic, elevator use, etc. These ships are perfect places for a highly communicable disease to spread like wildfire.

Tom Hanks is in Australia and has coronavirus.
Anybody traveling now is rolling the dice.
Indeed. It’s everywhere. You can’t hide but you can lay low.
Tom Hanks and wife Rita Wilson have tested positive for the COVID-19 coronavirus.
The actor, 63, confirmed the positive results on his Instagram Wednesday.
“Hello, folks. Rita and I are down here in Australia. We felt a bit tired, like we had colds, and some body aches. Rita had some chills that came and went. Slight fevers too. To play things right, as is needed in the world right now, we were tested for the Coronavirus, and were found to be positive,” Hanks wrote.
“Well, now. What to do next? The Medical Officials have protocols that must be followed. We Hanks’ will be tested, observed, and isolated for as long as public health and safety requires. Not much more to it than a one-day-at-a-time approach, no?”
He added, “We’ll keep the world posted and updated. Take care of yourselves!”

The Houston Rodeo was canceled today, 9 days early. My wife is bummed as I was able to get her 4 really prime seats to see Gwen Staffani for her & 3 of her girlfriends. I'm still planning on attending my normal show circuit unless the shows are cancelled.
I don't travel much but I have cut back on spending and at this point only buying what I need. I've put off rebuilding my engine for entry level drag racing, a 10 second car isn't a priority, jmo.
No, I will not be changing my travel plans to coin shows.
At this stage, being informed from reliable sources is the key, then doing what you need to do when plans get changed around you.
Not being worried because one is downplaying science and numbers is not advisable. For anyone that has had to deal with something like cancer, remember it started with just one bad cell somewhere. That's all it takes.
United States does not have a chance against this virus as we were never prepared. Our virus testing system has been a complete failure. Masks that prevent the spread of the virus are in short supply. There are no travel restriction between the states. No lock down in most hot spots, Every state is running their own program to battle the virus and there need to be a coordinated effort across the US.

I'm not a paranoid person and gave little thought to this prior to yesterday. However, it's become clear that those in their 70s and 80s are particularly vulnerable, and that people can carry and spread the virus with little or no symptoms. It is also true that coin conventions generally serve an older demographic, involve air travel, hand-shaking, meal-sharing, etc. It seems irresponsible to put people at risk unnecessarily. We would be much better served massively overreacting than pretending there's no issue. That's coming from a guy who thought this was completely overblown two weeks ago.

If I had to guess at this motivation, we really just wanted to ban travel of people who've been in Italy at this time, because of the enormous hotspot there, but as part of the EU, Italy has open borders with the rest of the EU. After Brexit, UK does not. I bet this ban gets extended to the UK before ban to EU is dropped.
And clearly why does it make sense to travel between continents right now?

Well, given your experiences, you are right that if there is going to be a ban, it should be wider--otherwise what's the point? Of course, given where we are now with cases in 45+ states,, there are already so many transmission chains in the US that any international travel ban isn't going to be terribly effective if not combined with restrictions on interstate and intra-state travel. This seems to be a situation where any top-down restrictions are not going to be nearly as effective as concerted efforts at the local and family level of social distancing, focusing in particular on at-risk populations (older citizens, or those with compromised immune systems).

Per Well Health, on average, the flu season will usually end by April, but in some years it can linger into May. There have been six years in the past where the peak was in March. I am hoping the coronavirus does not like summer and slows down like a typical flu and we can get back to normal soon.

UK is no longer in the EU. This is as political as I’ll get.
Here are some simple early modeling numbers for the virus. Total case numbers with people infected with the virus have grown at a rough average rate of 30% a day in the US since the last week of February. At that rate, the US will have more than 8,000 tested cases by next week, 40,000 cases in two weeks, and nearly 150,000 cases by the end of the month. Keep in mind China has less than 81,000 tested cases. At this pace our US health care system will be overloaded before the end of the month.
We need to go into hot spot virus management now that would include the following:
Lock down no public gathering
restricted travel in and out of area
Coronavirus testing for anyone with flu like symptoms
Hazmat suits for emergency services
Required use of face masks for everyone outside of their residence
Disinfectants used in public areas
If we do the above, we might have a chance to get this under control and save lives and the longer we wait the harder it gets to control. The government needs to step to the plate and provide the necessary gear and services to make this happen. I do not know about you, but I am tired of excuses, poor decisions and acting like there is low risk.

Coronavirus testing for anyone with flu like symptoms
Hazmat suits for emergency services
Required use of face masks for everyone outside of their residence
Disinfectants used in public areas
If we do the above, we might have a chance to get this under control and save lives and the longer we wait the harder it gets to control. The government needs to step to the plate and provide the necessary gear and services to make this happen. I do not know about you, but I am tired of excuses, poor decisions and acting like there is low risk.
True but it’s still in the same exactly location It’s been in the past.
I go in and out of the UK easy breezy from France or Italy routinely. Did Paris to London last week via train. Like going in Canada from the US only easier.
These germs seem to speak all languages and don’t care about borders. That ship has sailed

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
I've worked as a full time paramedic for 20+ years. Also responsible for ordering supplies and pharmacuticals for the company. 11,000 calls a year. My suppliers have all but dried up.
N-95 masks, hand sanitizer, alcohol preps, personal PPE. NONE AVAILABLE. AND I'm over 60 years old. Concerned ? Yes Panicky NOT EVEN CLOSE.
Use precautions people, this to shall pass.
I stocked up on supplies, including N95 masks, 4-6 weeks ago. People, especially in the federal government with decision-making authority, should have seen this coming 2 months ago and started working on supply-chain solutions THEN. We are a day late and a dollar short.

I think England not being part of the European travel ban countries had a lot to do with Brexit and Johnson winning the election but President Trump just said in his press conference with all the new cases in England that they may be added to the list.
So, politically motivated . That was my take. That’s a problem. Yes, The UK has a problem
We just closed our Holland, London, NY and LA offices for two weeks starting today
