I'll go find some respirator masks this weekend.
Best case scenario we have them in a crisis. Worst case scenario we use them to paint next time.
Don't use an N95 mask for paint fumes
Staying away from other people for a while is the safest thing. Stop unnecessary travel and interaction and the spread stops with it. Simple.
The problem is our current state of society relies on constant interaction for economic activity to occur. Governments better get on this crap or there will be serious economic consequences.

Do they know the mechanism for transmission? Spittle from coughing?
Suspected droplets from coughing, sneezing etc. Airborne. There is debate if it is transmitted during incubation period. Later stages will have legions in the lungs I think.MouthBQ98 said:

Think of the events coming up...Super Bowl in 9 days....steady stream of primaries shortly after that where people stand in line in crowded rooms/hallways for potentially hours...and only about 6 weeks until Spring Break season starts, etc. etc.MouthBQ98 said:

Ironically, our era more than any other could suspend actually face-to-face business and go "virtual" and holograms for a time if it really had to. That option for the first time really exists where meetings and whole bit wouldn't require the actual travel.MouthBQ98 said:

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Wait... the Chinese went from claiming 800 cases to 90k just like that?

can we start a separate thread for unhinged conspiracy nonsense and keep this one facts only?
Every other post starts with "If x scenario happens...something really bad could happen."
Almost like they want it to happen as it would confirm their views about the rest of the world not being sufficiently westernized.
Not sure people on here are hoping the worst happens, but feel free to watch the YouTube video linked above about the wet markets and sanitary conditions of the majority. Then about the people posting about having symptoms and bragging about traveling.
"If you are reading this, I have passed on from this world — not as big a deal for you as it was for me."

No the 90k is based on that video but is almost certainly not accurate.

26 dead, 800 infected, 40million in eight cities during LunarNewYear on lock down.....seems about right.

Beat me to it!
There should be more people under watch in CS if this was bad. School started last week. He's been here at least 2 weeks.
Governments are slow to react and filled with stupid people.Wendy 1990 said:

Thanks to titan for the FIFY!erudite said:Suspected droplets from coughing, sneezing etc. Airborne. There is debate if it is transmitted during incubation period. Later stages will have lesions in the lungs I think.MouthBQ98 said:

Yes, but all of the kids are talking about this. I assure you if someone has flu like symptoms they are at the doctor. No reports of increased numbers of people at the doctor or hospitals.
The potential problem is if its contagious during incubation before symptoms.Wendy 1990 said:

Something like this would work well. Not so much this specific model, but something similar with the right filters.erudite said:Honestly? Looking for several M40 gas masks to ship to family in China.Rapier108 said:
As I posted last night, if you're looking specifically for medical grade masks, there are several medical supply companies you can order from online. Can't say if they still have stock or not.

When I worked for A&M, we had masks like this that were designed for going into NBC environments.
Edit: Check out the company MIRA SAFETY.
For those watching proceedings has Trump tweeted or even the Congress made any remarks between breaks about this yet? Anything to fill in what is valid of what hearing from China?
They won't care until a senator/rep dies from it.titan said:

The guy probably flew through Houston. It'll pop up more in Texas.

Only thing worse is an MSNBC environment.
