From @CDCgov press call: "Disruption to everyday life might be severe," says @DrNancyM_CDC. She said she told her children this morning, "While I didn't think they were at risk right now, we as a family ought to be preparing for significant disruption to our lives." #coronavirus

Replying to @juliebosman and 2 others
More from @DrNancyM_CDC: "The data over the last week and the spread in other countries has certainly raised our level of concern and certainly raised our level of expectation that we are going to have community spread here." #coronavirus

Outlook for coronavirus in the U.S.: @CDCgov is "preparing as if we are going to see community spread in the near term," says @DrNancyM_CDC on media call. #coronavirus

Remember our Daughter working around the clock dealing with SARS . Her ER staff members worked days without sleep or just catching a nap in the Store Room.

Something interesting,has anyone seen or heard if or how many cases are in India,or Russia? India with the second largest population and one of the dirtiest when it comes to Hygiene and open sewers as well as polluted water ,must be on high alert. But,with the Governmental controls on media,we most likely will not see anything until the Bon-Fires happen.

Anything Trade related,which China and Russia share,will move Viral Spore's . Can not imagine what is going on in India with their Cast System with the Majority of Indians not receiving proper health care.

They are calling for her to be fired for sowing panic and/or deliberately tanking the economy.
