    I don't know if I can manage 'precisely'! Approximately commonsense is the sense/wisdom we attribute to the common man/woman... i.e the man in the street, the average person...

    That is the instruction we get to withstand the Coronavirus. "Use common sense". But no one gives you specifics. Specially WHAT do we do/not do? Sigh. More platitudes. Thank you for your reply Addb and Happy Friday to thee! :)

    Unfortunately, sense is not common.

    However uncommon of what does it consist Stu? That's the instruction we get or got or are getting vis a vis the Coronavirus. I want a SPECIFIC LIST of what to do/not do. Yes we wash our hands a lot already. We're old and therefor the most vulnerable to it. Do we wear face masks? Do we severely limit leaving the house? Another skeletal platitude with no flesh. SIGH. Thank you for your reply and Happy Friday! :)

    Since you have the right jeans and the ability to communicate please provide me with a list of SPECIFICS vis a vis protecting ourselves fromthe Coronavirus. I'm 82. Jim is 84. We are old and therefore most vulnerable to this "disease". We already wash our hands a lot...always have. Do we wear face masks? Avoid going out of the house? "Common sense" is just another platitude and we are surrounded by them. Not helpful. Thank you for your reply D and Happy Friday to thee. California has the distinction of having the first case of "community" Coronavirus in the nation. What is it? Well they don't know how she got it. She did not travel to anyplace nor mingle with anyone who showed the signs. It is a mystery and very scary. This virus can be passed on by someone with no symptoms at all. There are now more cases of such "mystery origins" so you will not know if you get it how you got it. Any help you can be would be...well...most helpful.

    Avoid all public gatherings ,busy markets ,shop only at times when others are at home....carry hand sanatizers with you often and stand well away from everyone when you speak to them...were disposable cpgloves when out and wash your hands with your gloves on before removing them...dont use cash  to pay for things ...use your cards and don't let others touch your cards...don't put your fingers in your mouth or touch your eyes

    you could even wipe every thing you buy with appropriate hand wipes....
    Research the best thing to do on the web and don't believe all that your government wish you to believe about it.....
    All governments world wide have a history of deceit and lying to their minows in times of war and also disasters ....
    Thier " I'm alright Jack " policies will always come first and someone some where will be making vast fortunes out of others misery....

    DON'T SHAKE HANDS WITH ANYONE AT ANY TIME FOR ANY REASON. A medical doctor on one of the cable news tv shows said it's safer to hug than to shake hands. She and others have just stopped doing it altogether. I am a hand shaker but not any longer. We have masks. One market is open 24 hours a day. Another opens at 6am. We are always early shoppers. We believe NOTHING dumb don says because all he knows how to say anything is by lying. He LIED yesterday and then the experts told the truth and his face went WOODEN. Bet he fires all of them. Only mickymouse pounce is allowed to tell we the people about the Coronavirus. AS ORDERED BY DUMB DON. He is terrified that the truth will be disseminated so he put a stop to that by bottlenecking all relevant information. He is a vile maggot. Thank you for your reply D! :)

    Dont touch anyone you don't have to Rosie....always close your toilet seat before you flush...atomized droplets of water and what else it contains covers youe WHOLE  bathroom every time you flush..keep your tooth brushes see rated and in closed cupboards..never ever share them either..if you and your husband has an ensuite bathroom ,never let others use it..
    Dont touch any one until this thing is over if you really are that worried about it..

    The most endangered group? OLD PEOPLE D. Those over 65. You know I'm 82 and Jim is 84 so we are AT RISK. Yes I am worried about it. Jim had a stroke April 5, 2019 but who remembers? Anything that threatens him scares me bigly. Thank you for the additional suggestions. I appreciate it. :(

    There is a strange fact about being old and catching things Rosie...like with the common cold virus...there are only around two hundred strains of it...that means the older you are the less likely you are to catch a cold as your body is emune to most of them ....you can only catch the same strain once...

    Actually, we wear JEANS and inherit GENES. A small distinction.
