Don't think so, 5000 miles is a long way to travel.

My advise? LEAVE those areas that are rife with virus! Hunker down somewhere where its not taking over. My home is available for anyone wanting to get away from the mess that is CA, NYC and Chicago.

Cool, thanks. My kids live in LA and their roommates have been coughing for a week. Can I send them to stay with you until this blows over?

Hunkered down in the SF Bay Area,

Andy, yes in all seriousness, they would be welcome, I would put them in quarentine for a week or so in our guest house to make sure symptoms dont show themselves, but yes, I dont blame anyone for wanting to get out of rampent infected areas. Ask those poor folks who were cooped up on that cruise ship just waiting to get infected.

They don't want to be in quarantine - they say that is an overreaction, like all this shutting down restaurants and retail. Hope you don't mind.

Damn you, Jonathan! I laughed so hard - I had to use some of my precious toilet tissue!
Thanks for the link, though. Good comic relief during the time of self-imposed isolation.

1. I don't live in CA
2. The government advice is to protect the hospitals from being
overloaded and to save lives.
3. It may not matter if you get the virus, it will matter to others.
4. When scientific evidence leads to advice to STAY AT HOME it is
incumbent on everyone to do just that.

The whole point of the restrictions is to save necessary deaths and
serious illness but you and your ilk know better. You don't care about
others, only yourself.
Now we all know exactly what and who you are. Good luck with that.

Here is another "anecdote:" our local hospital has posted ARMED GUARDS at the entrance of the hospital in addition to medical personnel for pre-screening prior to being allowed in to the hospital.

Ain’t gonna get sick there 2g. Live your little sheltered life there, Ive got another glider to tow here. As for being ignorant reguarding the virus, the majority of my family iis in health care including a cousin who works for the CDC. Ill take my info from them not you who apparently believes everything they get from mainline news sources, good luck with that.
