Going back to WWZ (book) references, Cuba emerged as the new superpower because they were a self-sufficient island with a population that was used to communal effort.

They never figured out if NK was okay. The whole population moved underground and became mole people.

Also the US government relocated to Hawaii which would probably provide a boost to the value of my house!

Good afternoon SD families,

We want to follow up on an email sent earlier this month in which we provided families health tip reminders and information about a respiratory illness caused by a new coronavirus known as COVID-19.

Since our last communication with you, the virus has spread to a growing number of countries.

The Washington State Department of Health (DOH) continues to report that the immediate risk to the general public statewide is low. There also is no evidence at this time, health officials report, that the new coronavirus is spreading in Washington state.

We understand that its continued spread to new regions around the world and heightened media attention is concerning. We want to assure you that the District is continuing to closely monitor this situation. The district is also communicating with state and local health officials, as well as the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction, and will continue to follow their professional guidance. As we learn new information, we will continue to provide you with updates.

Contingency planning underway
Our district is also engaging in contingency planning in the event the virus spreads to our area and, more specifically, our schools. As with other infectious diseases, we work closely with state and local health officials on how to respond to any potential illness outbreaks, including the possibility for school closures. We will continue this ongoing communication with health professionals and update our contingency plans as necessary.

As we mentioned in our earlier email communication, while the virus originated in China in December 2019, COVID-19 is not connected to race, ethnicity or nationality. In a letter sent this week to school superintendents, state Superintendent of Public Instruction Chris Reykdal wrote, “Stigma will not help to fight the illness.” Sharing accurate information during a time of heightened concern is one of the best things we can do collectively to keep rumors and misinformation from spreading.

Health tips
There are steps people can take to reduce their risk of getting and spreading any viral respiratory infections. We encourage you to share these tips with your family members, and our staff will be encouraged to reinforce them at school.

Health tips include:
Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol if soap and water are not available.;
Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth with unwashed hands.;
Avoid close contact with people who are sick.;
Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze, then throw the tissue in the trash and wash your hands.;
Clean and disinfect objects and surfaces.;
Stay at home and away from others if you are feeling ill.;
For your convenience, we have attached a one-page handout from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that illustrates, with pictures, how to stop the spread of germs.

In WWZ the gusanos return to the island and take power though

their new small businesses provide jobs for all cubans and refugees that can make it to the island

In New York, scientists at both the city’s and state’s laboratories have seen false positives even when following the CDC’s latest directions, according to a person familiar with their discussions.

“Testing for coronavirus is not available yet in New York City,” city Department of Health spokeswoman Stephanie Buhle said in an email late Thursday. “The kits that were sent to us have demonstrated performance issues and cannot be relied upon to provide an accurate result.”
