Are you guys talking about the same case? Or is Suncor daycare and Bow Valley daycare both fucked lol?

Those are two different daycares, my post is unrelated to BVS.

You have to assume children in a downtown daycare have parents that travel for work or pleasure, and kids are disgusting, so it's a pretty high risk environment.

Funny, a friend of mine daycare worker - was just saying they've started checking kids temps on admission in the morning. Recheck at lunch.

Of course they got shut down for a week last year because a kid in the program was in contact with someone who got measles... Pretty sure they're not taking chances.

Buncha sports in Ohio cancelled or under consideration of cancellation.

How long till Nascar cancels a race?

Joe Rogan had a podcast with an infectious disease expert (Michael Osterholm) yesterday. Lots of good info in here.

He thinks this will be at least 10-15x worse in terms of deaths and infections than the worst flu season we’ve ever had.

Just had the (expected) meeting with the CEO about infrastructure capacity in case everyone needs to work from home.
Infrastructure is ready, saw this coming quite a while ago. I spun up additional remote access servers weeks ago.
Users, not so much, the trainable ones (40%) will need user support to get them up to speed. The other 60%, good luck.

My team has been working remotely for six months. Fuck yeah we are ready.

Heard from a source today that they will be cancelling.

Houston rodeo was just cancelled.

If there is one thing Calgary won't cancel it's Stampede.
They moved heaven and earth in 2013 to put on the Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth.

This is just ignorance. Do you know what can happen if a full on outbreak happens in densely populated cities in Asia? Its dumasses like you that underestimate the potential damage. You know the Asian flu in 1957 killed 1 to 4M people worldwide? 4M is still a small number on a global scale, but it is by no means small. Better safe than sorry. I am in HK and I am wearing a mask when I am out now.

I tried to warn people the severity of this virus. Dumbasses like you guys didn't realize it until it's too late. Now Europe is the next big victim. Watch as most countries go into lock down. #toldyouso

Trump just announced it on his live press conference at 7pm.

Thats basically all he did except for go on about small business loans, payroll tax freeze and some money to develop a vaccine. Also went on saying their healthcare was the most advanced in the world etc.

Don’t worry our fearless PM won’t do anything that drastic, he’s even giving 50 million to other countries

I am still in HK. Which shows how diligence has kept the virus to a reasonable level. As of today, only 129 confirmed cases in HK. HK has the highest Chinese inbound travelers compared to any other country in the world too.

I remember people laughing at HKers for "dinky" masks and hoarding shit. Now globally people are copying HKers lmao. But seriously, a clean anus does not prevent WARS (yes, I am keeping the name Wuhan name in there).
