After crunching the numbers for 4 days and measuring the spread in case numbers, the virus case population is growing by around 24% daily and going up . That does not include the cases that have not been formally diagnosed. Last night there were 416 cases, today at noon it's at 474, if it continues at this pace for 3 weeks, the number of infected in the US will be around 32,500. Evenly spread, which it won't be especially at first, that's 650 cases per state. It can live on paper money and coins, grocery baskets, gas pumps, etc. for several days. Also kids and grandkids can have it, be contagious and spread it, with NO symptoms. I imagine that 50% of this forum community is above 60. To these people, this stuff can be deadly 400% higher than below that age and there is no cure for it. I understand the gleeful cynicism among people below this age, but if that age and above is YOU, I would do the right thing and strongly encourage you to not pay attention to the skepticism about it. Listen to the CDC and what they tell you, they are the true professionals in this scientific field and their advice might just keep you alive.
