Here we go, everyone. This is when shit hits the fan.

Not when the world warns us all, but when a beloved celebrity comes down with it.
Never thought we'd get a sequel to Philadelphia.
 
I just got an alert telling me to stay home if I'm sick and if I don't improve within 48 hours to get care. What does this mean? Tests are hard to get/nonexistent.

I went to urgent care Monday and while I'm not worse I'm not better either.
I'm concerned about going to the doctor's appointment cause I could be find but a visit might make me a carrier for Wuflu.

They are just right in the kill range, I have hopes they can survive it but now I'm curious what other celebrities are infected.

4. The its China's fault.
5. That its the CDCs fault.

Basically, the protocol is that, since testing everyone is impossible/impractical, they're having people semi-self-quarantine until their symptoms are gone. If you don't get worse and you're fine now, odds are pretty good that even if it is Wuflu you'll be fine. Obviously, if it gets worse, go to the doctor.

NOTE: I am not a doctor, and this should not be taken as medical advice. I'm just someone in a similar situation who asked a lot of questions.

Most of this thread is filled with fear-mongering mongrels with built-up uncertainties influenced by the media ignoring that entire fucking plagues and other flus have happened in the history of the world that have wiped out way more people than "muh corona" when globally there was little to none of the advanced technology we have now.

Don't let fucking paranoia overtake you. Take precautions, but goddamnit, it's just the Wu Flu, bro.

EDIT: HOLY FUCK NO MORE BASKETBALL. What the fuckity fuck? That shit's fucking ass. The fear-mongering is at its height. This is all a bunch of bullshit. I hate this shit. I really do. People are treating it like the end of the goddamn world.
 
This thread is stressing me out and making me sad. I've stayed ahead of the curve by following here but now we've now possibly got cases near my home and there's nothing I can personally do to stop it's spread to where I live. I feel like Canada has it within it's power to stop things now if we stop flights and lock up but it's like everyone in government has decided it's fine for it to spread here the we'll deal with it as it comes mentality is so frustrating.
