I'm just happy that something has come along that will bump that boring-ass 'impeachment'  nonsense off my TV and provide some kind of on-going suspense for a while until the new season of Better Call Saul.  Also, I'm ready for a post-apocalyptic world.  There will be so much less traffic.

"The Wuhan coronavirus spreading from China is now likely to become a pandemic that circles the globe, according to many of the world’s leading infectious disease experts.

The prospect is daunting. A pandemic — an ongoing epidemic on two or more continents — may well have global consequences....In the last three weeks, the number of lab-confirmed cases has soared from about 50 in China to more than 17,000 in at least 23 countries; there have been more than 360 deaths.

Yeah, I don't see how you are gonna stop it now.  Its possible to spread before symptoms show up too.
