As usual, offering no actual input or useful information. I am pretty sure most have figured out what you are at this point. I see lots of posters with articles, even personal anecdotes and yet you just offer snide commentary and shrill, panicky speculation packaged as factual information. 

Like I said....good luck with that.

2 months ago I was sick for 13 days bad sick. I'm starting to wonder if I got it back then. 

Up around Seattle, we honestly think this think has been floating around since December, though in very low numbers.  That FLU study they did before the outbreak, they went back and tested swabs and found some were positive for COVID19 and this was before the first case was "confirmed" in Washington state but per usual, the Government forced the DR to stop what he was doing.  It makes sense since cases are now just popping up everywhere and they have no clue how it happened.  It happened because people were spreading this around before we even really knew what it was.

Yep. Colorado's governor has publicly stated that even though we're in the neighborhood of 200 cases confirmed in the state, the real number is likely in the thousands.

When exactly did this virus emerge? I was sick for like a week in late January. Wife was too. Flu test negative.

I'm passing this along after talking to a few friends in the military and or government. All of us need to get any business or personal affairs in order asap (unless it can be done from your home). Banks, stores, etc. If you have family close by make sure they are set with weeks worth of supplies and Rx. We are about to be heavily restricted in our movements. I honestly have nothing else to add but this advice needs to be taken seriously.

If this doesn’t happen are you willing to risk a permaban

Sure. It doesn't really matter either way. I'm not saying we're all going to die. Just be prepared for some kind of lockdown.

The earliest sample they found in Wuhan was November 17th. So probably earlier than that.

The lockdown is already in place.  The only thing that will change is the degree of the lockdown, ie the level of restrictions.

I am weirdly in agreement with some of the government's position on the numbers. I do think we should be testing more people because that data is valuable but I do not think that the general public should get that information at all. They have already panicked at an extreme level and it is just going to make that issue worse.

Both drugs that have shown success in Japan and elsewhere are not FDA approved. Thanks FDA. 

They also do not work in the most serious cases - like the ones where they failed to test to find out you had it, because they didn't have the tests or said you didn't qualify for a test, and the virus multiplies in your body because you aren't getting the drugs that might have helped earlier in the disease progression.

One of them does. The Ciclesodine or w/e. But that’s for severe cases that have already progressed into pneumonia. The asthma inhaler.
