Notes:
1. In the US, there seems to be a West Coast bias and an urban bias.
2. It's not that much of a problem in the US until it starts spreading. New locations aren't the same as spreading. But once it spreads...
3. The world seems to be getting about 2000 new cases per day. Compared to the world population, it's a somewhat small number.
4. Covfefe and COVID-19 are almost adjacent alphabetically. (However, Covia is the name of a company, and it's in between.)
5. I rather like the name "Mexican beer virus". However, I do find it unfair that their sales are going down just because of the epidemic.

Honestly, the news reports of 'investigations' needs to stop (and to be clear, I'm not saying you need to stop posting them, I'm saying the news conferences shouldn't even occur in the first place).  What happens most often is that the news conferences are played on every TV station and reported on every news site in the state, and passed around on social media.  When it turns out the person didn't have the virus, it gets much less airplay, and fewer shares on social media.

Again...this all relates back to the media.  The influence they have on how we act and do things is more significant than any other public figure in modern times.

I'm surprised someone hasn't worked up a "most interesting man in the world"  meme given how many Corona Beer Virus Memes are out there already.

I am concerned being as I do doordash in philly.

With the first case being in NY thats a stone throw from Philly.

5 Million people left Wuhan since December.

That means the chances of the virus being in the Philly metro is 70%.

Even though the virus is more deadly for older people & immune compromised. Getting the virus & having a chance of getting extremely sick or getting the virus & having it come back every year till the vaccine is established will be bad on some people's health.

The worse part about this is the 2 week period before feeling any symptoms.

Which means you can spread it to 100's of people or come into contact with people who have it.

if 100s of people were that easily infected, everyone would be sick by now. Average number of transmissions seem to be about 3. Some are higher, many are lower. 3 is still a lot, though.
