    I heard the new name earlier on the news thought is there another virus? Is SARS Cov2
    Still the COVID-19,Coronavirus,Wuhan Virus, etc?? Or is it a new one on top of COVID-19?

    Thankyou guys!
    Been researching up a storm but finding some of the information in Spanish conflicts with the ones in English. One in Spanish for Spanish speaking USA article said the virus can be killed by heat . I do not believe this to be true at all the English articles say it’s not killed by heat of 26 or 27c .Its updates in Spanish now are also saying was wrong

    The WHO says that with information changing rapidly as this progresses to be ready for changes as they perfect how to treat y handle this. So trying to stay up on it all. I did manage to get baby googles children sized in case he needs to go to a doctor y a mask his size..I’ll put winter gloves on him.

    You can do your own research.

    SARS Cov2 is the actual name.

    Covid-19 is a lay term. (It appeared in 2019, so Coronavirus Disease 2019)

    Coronavirus is the type of virus.

    Covid 19 is the disease, not the virus. It's confusing.

    Eta. Sorry, this was already covered.

    A local meat-packing plant has 80 positive employees. Even with high unemployment will they be able to keep up production? We are supposed to be weeks away from peaking.

    February 7th one of the many planes we have gotten landed full of them even a few were sick already. The bases started making changes around here before that even.

    Wuhan had it since November https://www.livescience.com/first-case-coronavirus-found.html

    Some isn’t written we just seeing in with our own eyes y ears we didn’t even know what they were talking about yet as base members talked to each other passing us by in the stores.

    Their thinking a few had it before that but was misdiagnosed deaths y illness

    Early February to early April is two months, not three.

    I hate people.

    So my doctor suggested that I attend the special early hours at the store this morning because my asthma has been so bad of late (plus other health issues). I took time off of work, got up early, put on my mask, and went. It was horrible. These are all people who should be social distancing the most. The elderly. Those with chronic health conditions. But no. It was like no one knew that social distancing meant! Especially the elderly! They couldn't wait 2 seconds so you could grab an item before they stood right next to you to look at stuff. They would come right at you with carts like a game of chicken. They wouldn't stay to one side of the aisle so you could pass safely. They pushed right past you to get in the store while you were trying to keep distance from those ahead of you.

    I am not doing that again. Sunday mornings at opening were WAY better then that.

    Everybody was doing that last time I went to the store a week ago, elderly or not. I do recall seeing something on the news about how the elderly population in my state (maybe other states too) are taking this situation the least seriously compared to other age groups, and are going out and about as much or more than always, and often with zero protection. Of course, everywhere they go is a store, church, or visiting friends and relatives - all things considered "essential" here. So you can't stop them, it's like seeing the train wreck about to happen...

    Rolling LockDowns may be the wave of the near future.

    Locally the human food stock seems to have improved. Animal food supplies are not in as good of shape especially if one is brand loyal. I think some animals are more picky about the brand they prefer than humans are.

    Places too quick to return to normal are being interrupted by an uptick. That may spur the second wave. My state hasn't reached any kind of peak but is hailbent on returning to normal. I'm ticked thinking about an uptick due to poli-ticks. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, I like the sound of this... <3
