#1 Especially Wiccans. Beware of wiccans who frequent chinese markets for supplies.

#2 Not completely bad news.

The implication is that there's evolutionary pressure on the virus favoring variations that cause no or only very mild symptoms.

#4 Beware of wiccans who frequent chinese markets for supplies.

Self-imposed three month ban on those places for me. As for the local restaurants I go a) alone and b) at off-peak hours, mainly because I don't like a crowd when chowing down.

#5 /\ I don't like a crowd when chowing down.

Coronanoid? Yes, do you think I am stupid?

Crowds you say? Me as well, but it's certainly NOT limited to 'chowing down.' The household six sez it's because I don't like womens. Not true! I provide both genders equal billing. I've been that way for over 60 years, possibly longer. Are there any other questions ?

#6 Are there other questions?

What... is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?

I think all vets hate crowds.

#7 Slightly less than .45 ball ammo. You didn't think I could answer that did you ?

#8 I most certainly hate/avoid all crowds. That includes hospitals and grocery stores, so right there with you.

Crowds attract fire. Spread out. Keep your intervals.

#10 There’s no shortage of lucrative jobs in health care.

#11 No Mardi Grais or Carnival would be wise.
Same for St Pats day.
Not to sure about church and shaking hands.

#13 I think all vets hate crowds.

And large open urban areas, as so I'm told by three generations of vets.

#14 Elmerert Hupens2660 has a point. The Spanish flu virus is gone, the common cold virus thrives.
