recover fast and soon!
Oh hey China in the 40s again. We just need the deaths to go back to zero and this should be a good indication of how long it could take someone else to put this thing on ice. Hopefully it does not drag out and most recover since we don't have the ages of those critical or seriously ill right now.

Father of woman diagnosed with coronavirus attended school function against orders of health officials to isolate, official says
From CNN’s Hollie Silverman
The father of a woman with a presumptive positive case of coronavirus attended a school function with another child Saturday against the orders of health officials to isolate, St. Louis County Executive Sam Page said during a Sunday press conference.
The presumptive positive case in St. Louis County was identified as a woman in her 20s who had recently returned from Italy, a press release issued Saturday said. The only reported case in the state, the woman had fever and respiratory issues, Gov. Mike Parson said.
The woman's father and other family members had been in daily contact multiple times a day since March 5 and knew they were supposed to isolate at home, Page said.
Health officials have since spoken to the father and told him he needs to stay home. They will obtain a court order for quarantine if necessary, Page said.
Page did not know how many people attended the school function or what the possibility for exposure was. The father and other members of the family are not exhibiting symptoms, he said.
