There's still panic buying from what I've seen, but it looks like it's mostly isolated to the mornings when stores restock shelves. Wife hit the local supermarket Tuesday and there was nearly no line. Most fresh produce and other products not obviously long in shelf life are stocked as normal on the shelves.

Monitors and keyboard are currently pulling double duty switching between the work machine and my gaming rig, so cable switching is annoying, but not terrible.

"The [death] rate for this year’s seasonal flu is 10% if you use known cases and known deaths... according to CDC numbers, in the US in the 2019-2020 flu season, there were 222,552 confirmed cases of the flu from testing and an estimated 36 million flu cases in the United States. There were 22,000 estimated deaths from the flu (via the CDC)."

For anyone worrying over the COVID-19 virus itself, this should generally help set people at ease. The estimated death rate for seasonal flu is about 0.1%.

With all the talk of hand washing and avoiding face touching, this is a great illustration of how easily something like a cold can spread, thanks to an old Mythbusters episode.

I am so platform agnostic as to find the sidetaking on things a little silly.

Linux is good
Windows is good
OSX is good
Android
iOS
Mainframes are good

I mean right tool for the right job.
