We're praying for you guys! It's here, too, although I don't think anyone has died from it here. One of our school districts has had 2 confirmed cases and the whole school district is shut down for at least a week. I'm debating on keeping Darah home from her group therapy tomorrow as a precautionary. It is very scary and hoepfully it gets contained SOON!!!

STAY SAFE!!! I've been watching this whole situation with growing alarm. I'll be praying and thinking about ya'll. I'm afraid that all of the "America's" are in for a rough ride!

There are confirmed cases in Europe as well, and WHO has declared stage 4 on their pandemic scale.
This is scary..... We're thinking of all of those sick from this, and those who have lost loved ones to this virus.

Praying for you guys. We also have cases being identified in Australia but no severe precautions yet. The government just passed laws to allow extreme responses if necessary.

Yes I heard on the radio today that they are talking about containing people. Also they need to find at least 6 people that where on a plane, they having come forward yet. It’s scary
