I started the day being depressed. Guess it depends on whether I think a large percentage of people are thoughtful, keep informed, and want to help their fellow man. Or whether they are a bunch of inconsiderate knuckleheads without a care for anyone, wanting only their own pleasure, or do not care about knowledge and being informed. Reading local posts and hearing from even relatives and I think it is the later.
Anyone who had a very basic knowledge of the 1918 flu, SARS #1 or MERS, or any zoonotic disease should be very worried. Our scientists were working on a NOVEL virus and knowledge has increased as more and more is known about it.
All we can hope for is either a vaccine or a mutation to a less virulent form. Nothing much will help if it mutates to a more virulent form. Good grief, I am very depressed this morning.
