Slip ‘em a little tongue, they’ll like that. You might, too.
Surely several folks who went to attend Carnival in Rio have returned from there to New York City…
Drop the bridges, flood the tunnels.
ooo, nasty.

ATLANTA, Ga. – The Centers for Disease Control said Tuesday that it appears inevitable that COVID-19 will spread in U.S. communities. Officials say it’s no longer a matter of if, but when.
The CDC says the agency is preparing to address the potential spread of the new coronavirus in the U.S. and it's encouraging Americans to begin planning as well.
If the virus begins to spread amongst Americans, the CDC says it will becomes increasingly important to implement basic precautions to prevent more infections. That includes staying home when ill and practicing respiratory and hand hygiene.
Additionally, the CDC says community level intervention might include school dismissals and social distancing in other settings, like postponing or canceling large gatherings. Officials said it may become necessary for students and the workforce to meet over the internet, instead of in person.
The virus is believed to have originated from Wuhan, China, where early patients had some link to a large seafood and live animal markets.
The CDC says more than 2,400 people have died from COVID-19 worldwide, with a majority of the deaths in mainland China. However, other countries are now battling sizable outbreaks as well.
Europe’s biggest outbreak is in Italy, where more than 280 people have reportedly been infected. Iran has reported at least 95 cases. And, South Korea has more than 970 cases.
As of Tuesday, the CDC had confirmed 14 cases in the United States, 12 being travel-related and two from person-to-person spread. A total of 43 cases have been confirmed in the group of people repatriated to the U.S. from either Wuhan or the Diamond Princess cruise ship off the coast of Japan, the CDC says.
This story is developing and will be updated as more information becomes available.

About 1,000 holidaymakers at the H10 Costa Adeje Palace hotel in south Tenerife have been ordered to remain in their rooms and will be tested for the coronavirus this evening, according to a guest.
Police officers have been pictured surrounding the building and guests were not been served lunch, while hotel employees who arrived for work today were made to wait outside and were never let inside, after health authorities in the Canary Islands ordered the hotel to be locked down after an Italian doctor tested positive for the virus on Monday.

Rosie Mitford, an 18-year-old nursing student on holiday with her father and brother, said she was “a bit fed up”
This morning, there was a breakfast buffet at 8am with fruit and yoghurt, and guests were told lunch would be brought to their rooms, but by 5.30pm at least some people were still waiting. This was most likely down to staff shortages, according to Mitford.
Staff have not been allowed in for the whole day. They have been sat on the streets getting pretty angry as they had been in the sun for about six hours.
Staff inside wearing big proper masks, that we haven’t been given. They’ve been very helpful, they’re just trying to deal with it.

The nursing student said she is passing the time doing university work, but has been taking photos and watching events ensue outside the hotel.
Police are everywhere. There’s chains and padlocks on the gates outside, along with police vans.
She was meant to go home on Sunday but because of a sandstorm her flight got cancelled, while her flight yesterday also suffered the same fate as the crew had worked too long. On both occasions she spent about six hours in the airport.

Then, today, she woke up ready to go to her airport and found a note left under her door saying not to leave. However, she is remaining calm and not allowing herself to become frustrated following a series of unfortunate events.
Its not really a panicking vibe. Everyone is just milling about staying in their rooms. But they are not telling us much, everything we have found out has been from looking online.

Hope this resolves quickly and does not turn into the "Hotel Corona".
