Let's keep it simple. Whatever was done in 2009 in reference to the Swine Flu on the MTA, do it again. Really don't want to read 'Prepper' threads again.
Experts have told us again and again that the current evidence suggests this may not be a serious threat to health. Yet, the drum beat of sensationalism continues and sometimes grows louder. As we compete furiously for the audience, we tend to chase the more sensational angles. Thus, we de-emphasize the words of a scientist who says that, as of now, there's little to worry about.
The virus affects both animals and humans, and the initial human transmission might have been from raw meat, therefore the recommendation. But it spreads between humans like other respiratory viruses, by close contact. There were no deaths from SARS in the US as far as I know during that epidemic. A lab in Texas has developed a coronavirus vaccine, they are testing it as we speak.
I read somewhere that a coronavirus vaccine is 18 to 24 months out. Is the one they are testing in TX going to ready soon?

FDA takes on average 18 to 24 months to approve a new medication, but the director of the lab in Houston said they had a way of doing a large-volume testing rapidly.

That's good. Things are looking rather chaotic in Italy and South Korea, not to mention China.
I'm confused why this article suggests one way of protecting yourself is not to eat raw or undercooked animal products. Does that really cause coronavirus?
It is a good reminder to wash your hands when getting home or to your destination. I always do!
Excerpt: not to eat raw or undercooked animal products.
Opinion: suggestion.......... that come from China...............
Probably by April/May, this thing is under control. It's like a bad cold out there when everyone gets it during the winter months but disappears after spring.
