That’s the NY Murdoch Post. It’s not trustworthy.
Murdoch has lost hundreds of millions of dollars on that paper over the decades for a reason. And it’s not because he’s donating money to us or to society.

Snort. Fake news, that's your response??? Did you try googling?

I do wonder if even a bandanna over the face of the sick person would help cut down the droplet spread.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo confirmed that a family of four and their neighbor have all tested positive for the coronavirus, bringing the number of cases in the state to at least six.

March 4

This is the nightmare - the entire family sick, unclear if they are all hospitalized or if some need to fend for themselves while sick at home. The neighbor drove the dad to the hospital and caught it. So much for hoping neighbors will help out going forward...

That REALLY contagious if the driver caught from him in a short car trip, isn't it? I mean, my dh had the flu last year, and we slept in the same bed, shared a kitchen, etc, and I didn't get it. Neither did our 7yo. Taxi and Uber drivers take sick people around every day. What is the deal?

CNN)Vice President Mike Pence on Tuesday said that any American, with a doctor's order, can now be tested for coronavirus.

The move appears to expand criteria that had previously limited testing to patients who had been hospitalized, absent certain extenuating circumstances such as contact with a coronavirus patient.
Criteria set by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has now called for "any American (to) be tested (for coronavirus), no restrictions, subject to doctors' orders," as Pence said when describing the new policy.
Number of coronavirus cases in Washington and California rises sharply

Earlier on Tuesday, the CDC suggested that has always been the case -- that who should be tested is based on doctors' discretion.
CDC officials also said this last week, when they expanded their testing criteria Thursday after the first US case of unknown origin was confirmed. That individual would otherwise not have fit earlier testing guidelines.
"As soon as that case was recognized, we met and we revised our case definition for persons under investigation," CDC Director Dr. Robert Redfield said Thursday.
What do you do if you need a test?
Health officials urge anyone who believes they should be tested to call ahead, rather than showing up unannounced and potentially exposing others to an infectious disease.
"Your healthcare professional will work with your state's public health department and CDC to determine if you need to be tested for COVID-19," the agency's website says.

That's great that they will allow testing now. Do we have test kits to actually do it?

No. Pence is laying out the theory. In practice, there still aren't enough tests. Many people have asked to be tested and were not able to. This has been anecdotally recounted on these boards, and the NYT wrote an article a few days ago about doctors not being able to test suspect patients. The medical community is highly frustrated, because masks are saved (often locked up) to be used only in confirmed cases, and in the meantime the entire front line of doctors and nurses are exposed. This means they can infect any patient or staff or relative that comes into contact with them.

This is how epidemics snowball

This is a new announcement and you're talking about last week.

"On a call with reporters on Mar. 3, Dr. Nancy Messonnier, director of the national center for immunization and respiratory diseases, said with the test kits the shipped, she expects state and local health labs to test as many as 75,000 people by the end of the week."
