Coronavirus

Silver lining to the stock market situation - companies that focus on "homebodies" are doing well. This includes things like Zoom (specializes in teleconferencing software), Netflix, Peloton, etc..

Corona baby boom too?

Maybe China developed this to wipe out their elderly? I wouldn't put anything past the Chinese government. Way worst than the Nazis.

Based on the more recent data, the mortality rate is ~3%, and it is primarily older people, so because I don't match that demographic I'm less worried about the virus than I am of panicky people doing dumb stuff.

It is most always the panicky people doing dumb stuff because dumb people act panicky and do...…...Dumb stuff.

Panicky people can do dumb stuff and not affect much; there's enough stock on the shelves. When it happens and the cargo ships stop floating over here and we're all out of stuff, well, it turns out they weren't dumb except for the fact that they waited til the last minute to prep.
I would argue that the great majority are dumb and being prepared in any sense at all won't cross their mind until their very own 11th hour.

FDA reports 1st drug shortage due to novel coronavirus outbreak

"A manufacturer has alerted us to a shortage of a human drug that was recently added to the drug shortages list," Hahn said in a statement Thursday night. "The manufacturer just notified us that this shortage is related to a site affected by coronavirus. The shortage is due to an issue with manufacturing of an active pharmaceutical ingredient used in the drug."

"It is important to note that there are other alternatives that can be used by patients," he added. "We are working with the manufacturer as well as other manufacturers to mitigate the shortage. We will do everything possible to mitigate the shortage."

Oddly, they don't list the drug. I'm sure it will come out shortly.

A couple of years ago I purchased some sheets from Walmart that were manufactured in China. When I took them out of the package I found the largest bed bug I have ever seen. Luckily it was dead, but who knows what else they have included in other packages.

Damn, they just canceled baselworld (watch show) till next year due to coronavirus.
This would be like them canceling SHOT Show.
This is the main show yearly where all of the major manufacturers introduce their new watches for the year.

They figured it was the ... right time... to announce it.
