another good pandemic media is The Hot Zone, though it's about Ebola in the 80s I think. it shows a lot of the lab work involved in dealing with viruses

A couple of months ago I remember talking to someone about the election and mentioned how I don't really like any of the Dem candidates for various reasons but if one would mention antibiotics research as a serious issue (and hey maybe even a policy proposal!) I'd probably support them on that alone. Bernie is so good I bet he'll put money into phage therapy research

My supervisor had the flu over the weekend - he was off sick Thursday, Friday, and Monday - apparently ended up in the hospital on Sunday evening from coughing so hard that blood was coming up. He's back at work today.... - "I'm not good at staying home, I get bored, and the worst of it is over anyway." My other supervisor is currently off too with presumably the same thing that the first supervisor has spread around. This is in the UK, so it's probably just normal flu and not WuFlu, and I'm not back in that office until Thursday, but the fucker should have stayed home. Seriously considering asking if I can work remote until next week instead of going in Thursday.

Some experts think that this is probably going to enter the ranks of other common, seasonal viruses. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/experts-warn-of-possible-sustained-global-spread-of-new-coronavirus/

This is pretty cool though quote:The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation announced Sunday it is donating $10 million to the response to the virus. Half the money will be given to Chinese groups to help them in containment efforts. The other half will be given to the African Center for Disease Control to fund its efforts to help African countries prepare to have to cope with the new infection.

A coworker was coughing real bad so we put him down. Surely this counts as self defense as we were fearing for our lives, also we didn't like him

I thought the tweet was about "where did this new virus emoji come from?!?" and was proof that apple was aware of the planned virus ahead of time. I need to get some sleep.
