      If you are 60+, or have an underlying condition like cardiovascular disease, a respiratory condition or diabetes, you have a higher risk of developing severe #COVID19. Try to avoid crowded areas, or places where you might interact with people who are sick. #coronavirus

          It’s normal & understandable to feel anxious, especially if your country or community has been affected by #COVID19. Seek official sources of info to protect yourself, loved ones & your community. Plan on how to stay safe at work, school or your place of worship. #coronavirus

          It is reasonable to be fear after studying your organization's poor performance. If your organization does not serve China's interest and takes it seriously, there will not be global #WuhanCoronavirusOutbreak ! Step down NOW !pic.twitter.com/U0eKvMRegH

          Would you like him to tell you what clothing would compliment the spread as well?

          And why not? Preventive measures should be universal, as you point out. It's always good to care...

          No. Dont be stupid. We need experienced doctors doing the work of science. Not some new appointee starting over from scratch.
