The system of springs and pulleys that operates the Misc is apparently creaking under the strain, so here's a new chat thread. I don't think there's a lot a lot of value in sharing another hand-washing guide at this point, we're all up-to-speed, but public health agencies continue to widely encourage that people avoid non-essential travel and be conscientious about sanitizing, and that vulnerable people including the elderly and those with pre-existing health conditions like diabetes, hypertension, and obesity take special care to avoid infection. Infection from an asymptomatic person may be easier than previously thought, even through talking or breathing, and the use of fabric face coverings in public are becoming a widespread recommendation both to reduce your risk of exposure and greatly reduce your risk of unknowingly infecting others.

Some folks have been indoors for a minute and are a little cabin feverish. Have fun and try to be supportive and considerate of others who might be in a different situation from yourself.
