What's this?

Not kidding........Did you see the numbers from Italy today?....


769 New cases and 41 deaths (just today). 3858 total cases with 148 deaths. The numbers keep going up. They instituted a quarantine, they closed all schools etc......But only after it was clear that the problem was out of control......So let's project out 3 weeks......Likely thousands of cases in US......What's going to happen? Life as usual? Doubtful. New York has already imposed a quarantine on 1000 people because of the cases stemming from the infected lawyer. If New York is doing that, I expect that same protocol will be coming to a neighborhood near you, near all of us. Right now it is hard to see because the number seem low here in the US. They aren't low. That will become apparent shortly.
