Those who think COVID 19 is like the flu are dumbly wrong. We have vaccines for the flu. We don't for COVID 19. AND WORST OF ALL?

The MORTALITY RATE per Dr. Anthony Fauchi is TEN TIMES THAT OF THE FLU.

So for all you smarty pants who keep saying it's no big deal how about finding out about it instead of just sluffing it off like so much dry skin? What could it hurt to educate yourselves? Every one says so. That I can tell you.

    You are correct it is not a flu. It is different, it is a type of coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2 (SARS-2).  
    At least one company has a vaccine ready/close to ready for animal testing.   It will still be along time before it is approved for human use.
    They used the vaccine they created for the original SARS and modified it to match this SARS-2 virus. Corvid-19 is not the virus. It is the name of the disease caused by the virus. 

    While it is different the methods of prevention are the same. Wash your hands/use Germ X
    Cough in elbow
    Stay home if sick.
    Avoid touching people
    Avoid touching your face
    Use Lysol on door knobs, bathroom fixtures, sinks etc.

    Same warnings as for every flu season

    With the exception of if you have syptoms call ahead before going to Dr/hospital and then follow their instructions. 

    If I were an older person, I would try to limit my trips to the store etc.
    No public restroom.
    If I have to open a public door...turn around and push it open with my back...no hand use....If at all possible. 
    Keep Lysol.
    Spray door knobs regularly. Keep GermX by the door and make any visitor use it as soon as they came in.  

    Media is doing its best to scare everyone.
