    Re: CDC Officials Warn of Coronavirus Outbreaks in the United States.

    That's fair.

    You did not clarify in the post, which was much more anti-vax. And as a lifelong asthmatic, anti-vax people make the world less safe for me.

    I'm going to follow what is going on with the vaccination, and I'm not interested in a hastily done thing that being tested on me. Heck, there is no proof immunity is even a thing.

        I'm not really interested in the rabbit hole of "what-ifs" with a vaccination.

        First, I don't know if "fast-tracked" is something to really worry about or if it just is another way of saying "skipping some red tape and jumping ahead of other drugs waiting in line to be approved." Until I know that, I'm not making a decision.

        Second, we don't know who (if anyone) will be required to get the vaccination.

        It's a bit hasty, in my opinion, to get too riled up just yet.

          I've never had a flu shot.

          I also rarely ever get sick. Last time I had even a low grade temp was probably 4 years ago? Last time I vomited was about 9 years ago.

          It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.

            I got the first flu shot I can remember this year because my wife asked me for our daughter.

            Never had flu-symptoms and barely had a fever in the past, despite working in a school for the last 6 years where the flu notoriously runs rampant every January/February

              Basically the same here, though I can't remember the last time I had even a low-grade fever.

              Not against the shot or avoiding it or anything, I just get sick so rarely that it doesn't even occur to me.

                Never got a flu shoot before always thought flu shoots were silly. I get colds all the time working in grocery store like never got sick before working there, but i only get the flu ever few years, and it only ever last like 2 days when i do get it, and never had to go to the hospital for it.

                  I'm just glad they got rid of the nasal shot. That always made me sick.

                    CDC now recommends extending social distancing to pets. Encourage you to not let your pets interact with other pets or people outside of your household.
                    I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

                    I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

                      Wow, at first, they were saying dogs weren't susceptible to the virus.

                        I know things are tense right now but are we really throwing out a “To be clear, you’re a threat to my existence.”?

                        That seems a bit extreme, no?

                        I think it’s because of the humans they interact with, not so much other animals.

                        (At least from what I’ve read)

                              You are correct, a couple of wild cats caught the virus and they are suspecting it's from interacting with humans that have the virus.

                                I actually read it as me getting it from my dogs interacting with other humans who have it.

                                I still have been taking our dogs to day care a day or two per week so while there, they are interacting with other humans outside of my “bubble” who in theory could have it, pass it to the dogs with interaction and in turn, pass it to me.


                                That’s at least what I’ve taken from it. The examples of animals getting it seem to be extreme one offs.
