The reality is that Covid19 is coming and will not be contained.

In Italy 62% of their cases are hospitalized with 12% of those in ICU so I wouldn't underestimate it.

You will be facing some form of quarantine as people try and stop the spread though. Eventually people will just accept the virus but there will be a quarantine phase.

The USA is probably going to be hit rather hard because of the bumbling idiots at the CDC's lack of testing coupled with people's fear of testing due to loss of wages and health care costs.

South Korea and Singapore are doing it right with transparency and rampant testing.

Canadians denied entry to US

Exactly what I worry. Getting hassled at the border.

I worry enough bringing 2 windsurf boards 2 kite boards and a surfboard. Those agents ask too many questions why I have many gears now potentially screening me if I’ve been to Richmond and now North Vancouver

Are you bringing weed, been to China or Iran lately? If not, don't worry. They might ask questions about gear, but answer politely. I have had more problems coming up. You worry too much. Be kind, respectful and enjoy life.

Coronavirus is now in everyone’s 401k. I am very “worried” now. Forget flu and border crossing.

Let’s go to the Spit and enjoy the last days of that too

Not in every ones. Some knew that the market was over-valued and any little bad news would bring the market down. There are several asset classes that are doing well this year.
