my wife is scheduled to attend and present at a major health and tele-health conference next week in orlando. it's huge -- something like 100,000 attendees. she thinks they should cancel. they are pressing forward. to make matters worse, they just added a keynote speaker -- donald f'n trump, who is solely there to prop up the hugely successful efforts he and his administration have made to totally defeat the coronavirus. my family is doomed.

My parents are scheduled for a vacation in Seattle from April 17th-May 1st (they were going to go to Italy, but have been twice in the past 10 years and thought the Pacific Northwest would be a nice change of pace).

I have a conference in Denver this week, I leave thursday for. Doesn't look like they will cancel. But a few other upcoming ones in March and April look like they are cancelling.

Also, a health conference should be the FIRST to be cancelling. :/

Is there any chance Trump can contract this thing? He is going about this whole thing with such incredible stupidity, but also arrogance. Corona the mf.

Discussing the specific form, impact, and costs of the administration’s purposeful mishandling of an outbreak is unnecessary, because we already know that the president is dumb. Got it.

Odds are somebody currently has it or has had it already because of its tendency to pass and evolve while exhibiting no or close to no symptoms.

The general public cant afford for this to happen- It would shut down the porn industry.
