    There are only 4-5 hospitals in the country that are equipped to handle a virus like this, and contain it properly... unfortunately this hospital is not one of them.

    If we panic we lose but if we don't take this seriously.......

    The issue is that if this becomes 'common' it will change us by a greater magnitude than 9/11 ever did. People will be afraid to even do busines with each other. Family's will even be wary of each other. Stay safe but don't panic.

    I'll let everyone know how Dallas is when we go there next weekend. Shoot, let's plan a site-wide meet up 5-21 days after we get back. Lots of handshakes, we can shoot each other's guns, I'll prepare all the food...it will be a real rockin good time.

    Overconfidence is what may hurt us. I hope this is a good lesson that protocol can be breached or be inaccurate. we, CO, are close to TX but far enough to be prepared for this virus.

    From what I've been reading this could also have a huge impact on an already bad economy.

    It was a containment failure as soon as they let it in the country.
