[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]We are playing in the backyard only for now.
[/b]
I discussed with a couple other moms and we said in a week if things seem not horrible we might meet at a playground.

But if this goes on for a long time, it will be because it was bad, in which case you will feel good about just staying home entirely.  If it doesn't go on for a long time, then it won't have been that long that you're kid will have been without friends to play with.  So for now I think the safest bet is to stay home and not interact with people outside your immediate family.

I mean, for heaven's sake, they're building mass graves in Iran and people are dying in hallways at hospitals in Italy (citation: Washington Post for the first and Newsweek for the second).  This is real.[/quote]

There's a sidewalk along my backyard. Yesterday, two people coughed into it as they walked by, while my kids were home "sick." One of which was with her whole family and carrying a kid on her back. The other, an hour later, then crossed the street and stood in front of my neighbor's house, unwell, coughing more, before she started walking again. It makes me feel sorry for everyone, and I also now wish we had a rooftop deck.  [/quote]

Those things are true. It is also true that this is different, but denying that many people who cough don’t have the new virus won’t help. 
This is flu and cold season. My kids have had a cough and runny nose on/off since December. [/quote]
Yes it is. 
We need a bot that automatically detects and deletes "who needs hand sanitizer when you have hand washing?", "it's cold and flu season" and "it's allergy season" posts.[/quote][/quote]
