Ah so the young liberals are now the ultimate capitalist
I see
Putting out that kind of intel, without consideration, could lead to bad results.
I thought I had heard something about 10 per hour on the news earlier - this seems to corroborate that:

Just finished a 2007 publication about SARS and the final sentences are unbelievably clairvoyant. Regrettably no one paid any attention...
***Coronaviruses are well known to undergo genetic recombination (375), which may lead to new genotypes and outbreaks. The presence of a large reservoir of SARS-CoV-like viruses in horseshoe bats, together with
the culture of eating exotic mammals in southern China, is a time bomb. The possibility of the reemergence of SARS and other novel viruses from animals or laboratories and therefore the need for preparedness should not be ignored.***

Wow!
Does anyone know if we can take showers yet, or do we just keep washing our hands?
*(Reuters) - Connecticut's governor on Tuesday said the U.S. Strategic National Stockpile of medical supplies was now empty and the state was "on its own" trying to secure ventilators and masks to fight the coronavirus pandemic.
The stockpile is the country's largest store of medical supplies for use in a crisis and for weeks governors have been clamoring for its dwindling stocks of face masks and other gear to protect frontline medics, first responders and patients.
"It was disturbing today to find out that the national strategic stockpile is now empty. We did get 50 ventilators, for which I am very thankful," Governor Ned Lamont said. "For now we are on our own. For now we are doing the best to scour the globe for PPE (personal protective equipment) as best we can."

just heard from two of my friends on the Jersey Shore (Belmar) - haven't been able to get a hold of them for a couple of weeks (I was concerned) - contacted me today - both contracted COVID-19 & have been in quarantine at home since March 9th - both seem to be recovering but sounded like hell on the phone
