I don't know if any of you saw the latest from Amazon but Their shutting down the sellers who are gouging people. Some guy back east somewhere went out and bought just about every drop of hand sanitizer and other cleaning products available. Resold them on Amazon with a huge price tag. They shut him off and are looking into price gouging laws to see if they apply to this guy. One guy bought 10 packs of masks for $20.00 and turned around and sold them for $80.00- $125.00 per box. They estimate he cleared $35 - $40K in a very short period of time. That's just not right.
 
Went with my husband to his endocrinologist last week. She said he was a prime candidate for serious complications from coronavirus....81 years old, diabetic, and heart disease. She said I was not in any great danger from it, but to be very careful that I didn't carry it home to him. If I am out in a crowd, she told me to strip and shower when I get home and put my clothes directly into the washing machine, not into the clothes hamper. (Don't have to wash them immediately, just get them out of the living area. ) So far there have only been 13 cases in AZ, and none in my home area. But she made me realize that it would be life-threatening for him. I have been doing my shopping very early in the morning before the crowds are out, and only going to the blind center... Usually there are only four or five people in our large room at one time. I use sanitizer liberally, and so do my students. And I shower as soon as I get home. I wear a dust mask which helps keep me from touching my face with my hands.

Most of my students are from the East Valley where the three cases in our county are located. If it spreads, I'm sure they will close the center.

Thank you Sharon.
 
Just to lighten the mood a little.... :D
I'm sure just about everyone has watched that guy mime to Natalie Imbruglia's Torn... if you haven't, then look for it on YouTube.
Now there is a new parody of it, but of course about Coronavirus... ;) not very pro, but still worth a listen.
 
I talked with my son this afternoon and I asked him if he was stocked up on TP. He laughed and said, "We've got plenty but I also have a shower, my bum will always be clean". Smart kid...must take after his mom.
 
No.....no.....no.... you guys all need to plan for the future.....
In nine months, there's gonna be a hellavu shortage of nappies (diapers)....and other baby products.
Then a few years later we will need new teachers and more schools. 👍 ;)
