actually the lower mortality rate makes this one worse. With a high mortality rate victims die so quick they don't have a chance to infect a lot of others. But Covid-19 allows so many to go about their business without symptoms and super spread it around...were better off with a higher mortality rate...crazy times

Why would you take something before you're even sick?

The coronavirus responsible for the disease COVID-19 can remain intact on surfaces for anywhere up to 72 hours, according to a study conducted by US researchers.
The precise figure depends heavily on the type of surface infected droplets land on, and might also rely on the density of virus particles in the spray, and other environmental conditions - such as temperature and sunlight.
How long can the coronavirus stay airborne? I have read different estimates.
A study done by National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases' Laboratory of Virology in the Division of Intramural Research in Hamilton, Montana helps to answer this question. The researchers used a nebulizer to blow coronaviruses into the air. They found that infectious viruses could remain in the air for up to three hours. The results of the study were published in the New England Journal of Medicine on March 17, 2020.
How long can the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 survive on surfaces?
A recent study found that the COVID-19 coronavirus can survive up to four hours on copper, up to 24 hours on cardboard, and up to two to three days on plastic and stainless steel. The researchers also found that this virus can hang out as droplets in the air for up to three hours before they fall. But most often they will fall more quickly.
There's a lot we still don't know, such as how different conditions, such as exposure to sunlight, heat, or cold, can affect these survival times.
As we learn more, continue to follow the CDC's recommendations for cleaning frequently touched surfaces and objects every day. These include counters, tabletops, doorknobs, bathroom fixtures, toilets, phones, keyboards, tablets, and bedside tables.
If surfaces are dirty, first clean them using a detergent and water, then disinfect them. A list of products suitable for use against COVID-19 is available here. This list has been pre-approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for use during the COVID-19 outbreak.
In addition, wash your hands for 20 seconds with soap and water after bringing in packages, or after trips to the grocery store or other places where you may have come into contact with infected surfaces.

I got 20 rolls of Scott TP. Eggs etc.... had to be asked for as they were limiting amounts but they were there. No Reynaldo's Puerco Chorizo but somehow I'll muddle through.So today was the first senior shopper hour at Walmart. Last night was the beginning of the stay at home mandate. Shelves were completely cleaned out. Some eggs, but no meat, canned goods, dry goods, frozen stuff. Worst I've seen. Not even worth the trip out.

Finally changed, a good thing! Been out of the business for a while. Looks golden
Because it has 2 routes of infection, airborne and fecal/oral.

They keep changing their minds on all that too.
I read they found it 17 days later on surfaces of the Princess cruise ship, and then some Dr. on TV says it can't be viable more than an hour or two.
And some people who had it test positive 28 - 37 days later, and a Dr. says but they aren't shedding it.
Just try to stay the fuck away from it, I guess. Nothing is etched in stone yet and common sense goes a long way.

If we can handle WW2, we can handle this
We will only know the truth in retrospect.

I herd 133 deg F kills the virus pretty quick. Saunas get up to 190 deg. This could help people.

not sure saunas are the key but 133° does kill it quickly...
Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS)
There is no cure or vaccine for SARS and treatment should be supportive and based on the patient’s symptoms.

For sure but "we" weren't the generation who won WW II.
That's what worries me. The greatest generation could cope with anything. Some of the generations around today seem to whine a lot.
And tell that Eagle to stay 6 feet away, we lost enough of them to DDT!
This virus is airborne, six feet isn't a guarantee of safety. Right now is not a good time to be socializing.
It’s airborne? Cali nurses are fuked.

If you haven't already, you should really educate yourself and encourage others to do the same. Facebook isn't a good source for info. Try WHO or CDC sites for info.
@curious2garden do you have a site you frequent for info?
