I've got the flu guys. got the test to prove it any everything.  :frown: Do I need to quarantine myself?
Use that flu to inoculate the wort and call it flu cure ipa

contains: barley, hops, yeast, water, and human blood.
Dont need blood. Just cough a bunch around the wort and call it "spontaneously fermented"

So this Wuhan virus has a second confirmed case in the US. The first was in Washington State and the second is in Chicago. :ohno:

I'm becoming a full time remote employee if this crap spreads here. Stocking up on canned food, not leaving the house.

The timing of this Pandemic documentary on Netflix is crazy. I’m a couple episodes in and it’s rough ridin' nuts how quickly stuff could get bad. There’s quarantines starting to happen in China, Hong Kong is canceling school, and this is getting close to the busiest time of year because of the Chinese New Year.

I also saw something on reddit that they are exploring a possible case now in Denver. We seem to be getting really close to a tipping point where some drastic things might start happening.

What's the mortality rate? My quick math says well below 5%.

https://bnonews.com/index.php/2020/01/the-latest-coronavirus-cases/ the timeline is interesting, new cases are added every few minutes.

agree with spracs that it isn't very lethal, probably won't amount to more than SARS.

I think the regular flu that we have here every year is probably worse.

Certainly on a gross basis. This one seems to spread a bit more aggressively, but yeah. I could kick its ass. The troubling part is that you can communicate it for like 2 weeks while being asymptomatic.

Also, reports are circulating of a case in Lawrence. Xpost Lawrence Is Hurting thread.

Still a relevant topic.  Will be stocking up supplies and holing up on the windranch to ride this one out.  :dubious:

I hate my life right now. Having the stomach flu, while young kids are around sucks so much ass.
Sometimes I think of the Book of Job and how God likes to really eff with people.

That sucks, but you'll pull through. Even so, I wouldn't Watanabe you.
