WARNING

Hello, TCB here from Ground Zero.  I know that you worried about possible exposure to Coronavirus whenever George or Jane or myself signs on to HHW.  The CDC is advising you to keep sanitary wipes next to your computer and use them as soon as we show up.  Be sure to wipe down your mouse and your keyboard, as well as the computer screen.

Thank you!

Jane and George, what do you hear from others?

I am actually closer to the case in Portland than Seattle where people might be a bit more concerned.  I don't see people walking around  with masks on yet.

Did you check IMDB.com to see if it was based on a novel?

I did and didn't find a match.

Then it might not have been based on a novel.

I hadn't thought it was until DR John mentioned looking for reading material.

Robin Cook, who wrote Coma, authored a novel called Contagion. That was the one I was thinking of.

I recall the movie Coma.  Looking up his novels I see he wrote another book about a plague called Outbreak.

I have a very sick friend that I doubt would survive the COVID-19, not that I am sure she is going to survive if she gets it oh not :(  Today on fb she put up an excellent list of things to do to prevent getting the virus.  One was of interest to me was to wear a mask.  Everything I have read says it only helps to prevent others catching something you have, not to prevent catching it.  The recommendation to wear the mask is to keep your hands off of your face.  Now that makes sense as I have trouble not touching my face even when I try to remember not to do it.

Wearing a mask helps the wearer also. If someone near you sneezes you are less likely to receive their sneeze near your nose or mouth. That's helpful whether they are infected with COVID-19 or not.

Very true.

As I'm not on FB I don't know what the latest scare tactic or misinformation campaign is going on.

I think it is similar to the news.  I am seeing  information shared as people want  updates on what is happening.  I have seen those who try to downplay it and say it isn't as bad as the flu and wonder what all the fuss is about.  I think now those same people are realizing the fuss is that we still have a chance of stopping another respiratory illness.

Then there are all the political posts.

Well, Cary Grant is blind in this movie, and he's flying airplanes. It strains credulity, until you remember that it's Cary Grant. I believe he could do just about anything that a script told him he could do.

Was OUTBREAK the one that they turned into a film with Dustin Hoffman?  I remember that film for the scene of the slow-motion expelling of spittle and phlegm in the movie theater.
