#2 They been working 16 hour days, 7 days a week, for months. (All the planning was based on the implicit assumption that the virus will go away in summer.)

#3 I don't know anyone who's had it. Should I still be worried?

#5 I'll be the one wearing three masks. You can never be too careful.

#6 I know only one person who got the virus, and she is a nurse (ca. 60 years old) who works in an elderly care center in the Midwest. In fact, all of the nurses at this center contracted the virus. She recovered and had mild symptoms (loss of taste, etc.). But, again, these nursing homes...like the tornado and the trailer park.

#7 Going back to my original statement that this is the anti-Trump plague released by China to stop Trump from being re-elected in 2020. It's not going to work and in fact it's backfiring bigly on the Chinese.

#8 JP, not sure about you first point but it could be.

Pray that you're right about the second point.

#9 I have a number of close friends with very liberal views (thankfully they all think identity politics are bs, but still liberals). The only thing everyone in the entire group agreed on during our last get-together was "f*** China". The amount of venom everyone had towards the Chinese government was frankly astounding from such liberal people. It brought warmth to my heart, and makes me think China will have a rougher time in the future than they are hoping.
