A whole freaking lot of people crowded together. They also caught on late, like we did. 60 million people many tourists or exposed to tourists living in populated areas.
And they've been systematically starving their healthcare system.
That 60 million plus about 60 million annual tourists in an area about the size of Arizona. And a significant portion of both are 65+. Italy is a hub of Europe.

Fights reportedly broke out at a Costco in NY and a Sam's in Georgia.
More almost assuredly to come tomorrow as this weekend will be absolute carnage at the grocery stores and the costco's/Sam's of the world.

Well I'm sure the violence will come like you said. But also I see a lot of people helping people already and I'm sure that will continue. Mankind is always two sides of a coin.

Yeah my wife was shopping today and some people were going a bit nuts. Someone asked a guy speaking Greek if he was Italian and told him to go back to his country. And some other lady was flipping out on someone a bit about line jumping or something.

There's actually some truth to this apparently. Almost all the cases are adults. Kids can carry the virus but don't seem to have reactions to it like adults.
The thought is that so many health care workers are stuck with kids at home if they aren't in school.

exactly, the economy here is bad enough without so many people having to take care of those kids. but it's the perfect way for the virus to spread too

It is absolutely true that children are almost totally spared from having serious illness. I read that only one person under ten died in China. What is also true is these children will get infected and shed virus. Maybe only for a day or two, but kids are also unbelievably effective at spreading viruses. Children are a major vector for the flu even when they are personally asymptomatic.
If kids were able to be quarantined away from people who are vulnerable, getting them all infected at once would actually be an interesting strategy to start building herd immunity.

I mean that's kinda what we did with some viruses. Though alot of them stick around for life.
For some reason there's alot of viruses that children are okay with that are fatal to teens and adults.

Wow.
Mexico is considering limiting cross border traffic with the United States, essentially closing the border to people entering from the US.
