Surgeon General tells people not to buy masks.
Uhh hello? The richest most "ready" country in the world doesn't have a
6 month supply of masks in storage ready for such an event? What the heck?

Maybe they can send it to us. Today for the first time I heard the term
“surge capacity” applied to hospital beds. Person was saying US
healthcare industry has made hospitals efficient same way as airlines,
aim for zero empty beds, with the result that there’s not much surge
capacity. Let’s hope somebody’s looking at ways to open up more
facilities in areas where outbreaks happen. The Chinese weren’t stupid
with their modular approach to quickly creating a field hospital.
Reminds me of MASH. Time for a bug out!
I did a quick Google search for “hospital surge capacity” and the first
page of results were mostly studies after Katrina. A hurricane is worse
because it closes down hospitals and pharmacies, eliminating capacity.
With the coronavirus what I suspect we need to guard against is
infecting all the hospital staff and first responders so they get
quarantined. This appears to be happening with that nursing home in
Kirkland, Washington. 25 firefighters are now quarantined as a
precaution because they had been to that facility.

You need the disaster to occur to justify all your preparation.
Some part of you is rooting for it.
Just a hypothesis.

OK, maybe this is hysterical reporting (it’s from
Washington Post after all), but sounds kind of
science-y.
The novel coronavirus has probably been spreading
undetected for about six weeks in Washington state,
where the first U.S. death was reported this
weekend. A genetic analysis suggests that the cases
are linked through community transmission and that
this has been going on for weeks, with hundreds of
infections likely in the state.

Must be a Florida thing, or a Walmart thing. I have
not seen news reports anything close to “we are all
going to die”.
And I just stopped at the grocery store, no signs at
all of people buying up all the Lysol and Purell. I
did buy a couple of the pump bottles of foaming hand
soap we like, but the shelf was full. News reports
have said wash your hands and that it’s good advice
for seasonal flu as well, I don’t think that’s
doomsday advice.
I have not checked Walmart, maybe things are all
crazy there (as usual). Actually I have to admit
that I recently discovered the steaks from Walmart
are actually pretty good, they were branded Tyson
Fresh Meats.

There are only a few things we know for sure.
1. It is already in the US
2. More people in the US will get it
3. More people in the US will die.
Anything other than this is pure speculation at this
point. We don't know anything about this virus.
Most everything I hear or read about this virus
starts off with the equivalent of "WE ARE ALL GOING
TO DIE". But if you bother to listen or read the
article, it always has "may" or "some experts". The
current official incubation period is 2-14 days, but
hey lets just report 14 days and base all our models
on this and report it as the most likely scenario.
We don't know how long it lives on surfaces. We
don't know how it reacts to UV light. We don't know
how it will do in warm/humid conditions.
My opinion (just as valid as anyone else's), This
virus has been in the states before the first
reported case. People have had it and recovered
thinking it was just the flu. Not everyone exposed
is going to get it. Not everyone who gets it is
going to need to be hospitalized. Not everyone who
gets hospitalized will die.
The media once again is doing us a huge dis-service.
They are hyping this thing way out of proportion.
Was at Wal-mart yesterday. Every can of Lysol or
Lysol type of product was gone. Every package of
disinfectant wipes were gone. Every bottle of any
sized hand sanitizer, gone. Crazy. The closest
reported "maybe" case is over 1300 miles away. God
forbid we get a reported case in Florida, what will
happen then? Going to start burning and looting?

My neighbors mom, Karen told me that her friend,
