re: #67 Dr Lizardo

LOL no. So far, Czech Republic officially has zero cases as well….that being said, northern Italy is extremely popular with Czech vacationers and it was quite recently Spring Break for many students here - and I have no doubt that many of them headed off to northern Italy for their vacation (I know five former students of mine who were there in the last two to three weeks and to say the least, they’re starting to panic).

I’m sure it’s already spreading here as a silent epidemic.

There is nothing to fear but fear itself. If those former students of yours are under 50, they have little to worry about. Even if they get it, they may not notice it, or may think it’s a cold. (In the interest of preventing spread, it would be courteous to wear a mask if they have cold or flu-like symptoms.)
