    Have a bit of food and you'll be ok... people buying up three month supplies are the reason for the panic. Those shelves will refill in time and people need to chill out and relax a bit. Yes prepare but don't go insane with it.

    While it would be easy to make light of the situation ("she does... work?"), thoughts and prayers for ivanka and her family. And interesting (and good on her part) she took the potential health risk differently than her father...

    The way I remember it, WHO was waaaaay late to the party and was criticized for it. But like I said, who cares. It's here now and all I care is what are we ALL going to do about it today.

    This is all fine and dandy, but in my line of work, sick time is some mythological number that never will amount to anything. I have probably 9 weeks saved. I just can't take it. If any two people at my workplace are sick, people aren't getting vital treatment that they need.

    You might need to get your memory checked

    It was Trump that was way late and criticized for it. Maybe you are confusing Trump and the WHO
