I wish you hadn't used a pic of a Pug right now. I don't think our old girl is long for this world now and that photo just cut me.

Every Monday I do a walking tour of San Francisco's Chinatown.

Today it was like a ghost town. It was a gorgeous day, and normally we would have 12-20 people for a tour. Today we had 4 for the first tour and 2 for the second. I understand tourism in New York's Chinatown is way down also.

Fisherman's Wharf is empty. The Coronavirus is killing the tourism business in the city.

My dad was military. We lived in Anchorage from the time I was a baby to age 10, then Puyallup, McChord, Puyallup, and finally Spanaway. They never left Spanaway.

Got re-married at Northwest Trek in June 2018. NuHusband is Alaskan/Washingtonian, too, so it was a good location for friends and family.

Whereabouts in the Puget Sound are you, Res?

ETA: do they have family or friends close by in the event they need to isolate? To get groceries, do errands, etc?

Oddly enough, stepmom is a total hoarder. I've been tempted to submit them as candidates to Hoarders numerous times. Love them but as a KonMari enthusiast and neat freak, can't stand being in that house.

Which is all to say, they have plenty of EVERYTHING right now. (They're clutter hoarders, not super gross hoarders.)

I think the economic effects of this will hit us harder than actually getting sick and dying from it.

Even on a personal level, it cuts into my exam count right away. I hate this virus.

Yeah, that’s rough. It’s not really tourist season yet in Seattle. If this virus is still going gangbusters in late April or May, it’s going to be rough economically here.

Don’t know about you, but I think I’d find dying to be pretty rough.

Are your exam counts already noticeably down?

Ms. Jack,

What an awesome location for a wedding! I really like Northwest Trek and am overdue for a visit.

I was born at the Northgate Mall. Well, the hospital that was at the mall. You’ve got the south sound covered and I’ve covered the north. Seattle to Edmonds to Bellingham to Bellevue to Ferndale back to Bellingham. After college, back to Seattle, then Esperance, and for 25 years now, Mountlake Terrace.

So, Air Force? My wife’s an Air Force brat. Her Dad was stationed at McCord for a while when she was a kid. He was also in Anchorage for a while doing some kind of high altitude research flying (he was a navigator). She mostly grew up in England and Germany.

Well, except for the people who die from it. For them, the dying will be the worst part.

Dropping this here because, well, it’s freaking awesome science. This is how you understand the spread of disease.

Note what he says about where Wuhan was at this stage of its epidemic. There is not a chance in hell that we will take the measures China did to interrupt transmission of this virus. Or even what Singapore has done. Or South Korea.

We’re going to learn what it looks like when Pandemic meets anti-government Populism.
