    Sure……why the hell not? An encore performance by the Corona Virus Opera & Ballet just when everything else in the world is going to hell in a hand basket.

    Edit: other news sources are reporting it may very well be a form of “walking pneumonia” a bacterial infection. My wife had a bout of that nine years ago. Laid her low for close to a month and then a slow gradual return to normal over another couple of months. Am sure though kids recover much more quickly.

            That’s a relief. Chinese public health announcements are as good as Gospel.

                  Had Finley over at the mall yesterday and he was playing with a bunch of other kids. Woman comes in with three kids, one of whom is hacking out a lung. All the parents grabbed their kids and left… It emptied out in about 5 minutes…

                      It's a Mycoplasma pneumonia?

                        That's what I'm hearing as well.

                        In the day, we used to call that "walking pneumonia."

                            At least it’s bacterial.

                              Unless it is an antibiotic resistant (superbug) strain.

                                Even then, bacterial infections can be easier to prevent than viral… Of course, they are also generally nastier
