Wish you all would order take out at restaurants instead of buying up all these groceries. Restaurants need the money more than the grocery Food manufacturers
Would like to do this more but what assurance is there that the cook and anyone else who touches the food and packaging is healthy?
We all have our opinions but mine is that if I'm somehow going to get the virus by doing a takeout order from a relatively nice local restaurant then this thing is so far gone that millions upon millions of people are going to get it and I will catch it anyways. I don't believe that to be the case.
It will certainly be in the millions that get the chinese virus.
But for perspective, I believe the CDC estimates that 36 million people will get the flu. That's how they get down to the 0.2% rate.
The reality is that a significant amount of people have probably already gotten and recovered from this virus without even knowing it.
For example, guy who I talked to yesterday said he came back from going to a concert in LA in Feb. He got sick, had diarrhea, dry cough and some chest tightness and a fever. His hospital nurse wife thinks he likely had it back then, but we would never know either way since he has long since recovered from whatever he had.
