To give the direction on how to deal with this coronavirus.
My own state of California is stepping up with its own response. our Governor Newsom is being very proactive in the state. It will take scientists at universities to research and find vaccines. I also think the CDC former employees will also be speaking out.

MF45 supporters are the perfect demographic group who will ignore warnings because the stupid orange one told them the whole Coronavirus thing is a hoax

(9,653 posts)Most of the employees were wearing gloves. And if they weren't, the second they did anything with their hands, they used hand sanitizer.
I don't know about other states, but here in California most stores offer cart wipes, to wipe off the handles on the cart so that you don't pass germs along. I've been doing that for years, and I always carry my own wipes.
Anyway, one of the Costco employees saw me wiping the handles on the cart, and he actually thanked me for doing it.
