I guess some of you know that I am a bit of a news junkie. Or maybe I just like to scare myself. :o

Anyway, I ran across this really cool graphic regarding our favorite new coronavirus:

https://gisanddata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/bda7594740fd40299423467b48e9ecf6

It's updated several times per hour, and it is pretty hair-raising. It's being maintained by Johns Hopkins University, so I am sure it is legit.

Look at it only if you dare. :shock:

I looked, even though I sometimes think I shouldn't!

I'm glad to see that there are some cases of recovery included in the states. That should be a promising sign.

A plane from China just arrived in LA with Americans coming home. They are being monitored but so far no one is showing any signs of illness. Not sure how long they will be "quarantined". They landed the plane at a military airport for safety concerns.
