Take time to read This people!! This is from a Place of KNOWLEDGE and FACTS From a young researcher who had been transferred from Shenzhen to Wuhan to collaborate with the task force that is fighting the coronavirus epidemic, we receive and willingly transmit to all of this clear, simple and accessible information, which describe exactly what it is. the virus, how it transfers from one person to another and how it can be neutralized in everyday life. Corona virus infection does not cause a cold with a dripping nose or catarrhal cough, but a dry and dry cough: this is the easiest thing to know. The virus does not resist heat and dies if exposed to temperatures of 26-27 degrees: therefore often consume hot drinks such as tea, herbal tea and broth during the day, or simply hot water: hot liquids neutralize the virus and it is not difficult to drink them. Avoid drinking ice water or eating ice cubes or snow for those in the mountains (children)! For those who can do it, expose yourself to the sun! 1. The virus crown is quite large (diameter about 400-500 nanometers), therefore any type of mask can stop it: in normal life, special masks are not needed. On the other hand, the situation is different for doctors and health professionals who are exposed to heavy virus loads and have to use special equipment. If an infected person sneezes in front of you, three meters away they will drop the virus on the ground and prevent it from landing on you. 2. When the virus is found on metal surfaces, it survives for about 12 hours. So when you touch metal surfaces such as handles, doors, appliances, supports on trams, etc., wash your hands well and disinfect them carefully. 3. The virus can live nested in clothes and fabrics for about 6/12 hours: normal detergents can kill it. For clothes that cannot be washed every day, if you can expose them to the sun and the virus will die. How it manifests itself: 1. The virus first installs itself in the throat, causing inflammation and a dry throat sensation: this symptom can last for 3/4 days. 2. the virus travels through the humidity present in the airways, descends into the trachea and installs in the lung, causing pneumonia. This step takes about 5/6 days. 3. Pneumonia occurs with high fever and difficulty breathing, it is not accompanied by the classic cold. But you may have the feeling of drowning. In this case, contact your doctor immediately. How can you avoid it: 1. Virus transmission occurs mostly by direct contact, touching tissues or materials on which the virus is present: washing hands frequently is essential. The virus only survives on your hands for about ten minutes, but in ten minutes many things can happen: rub your eyes or scratch your nose for example, and allow the virus to enter your throat ... So, for your own good and for the good of others, wash your hands very often and disinfect them! 2. You can gargle with a disinfectant solution that eliminates or minimizes the amount of virus that could enter your throat: in doing so, you eliminate it before it goes down into the trachea and then into the lungs. 3. disinfect the PC keyboard and mobile phones The new coronavirus NCP * may not show signs of infection for many days, * before which it cannot be known if a person is infected. But by the time you have a fever and / or cough and go to the hospital, your lungs are usually already in 50% fibrosis and it's too late! Taiwanese experts suggest doing a simple check that we can do on our own every morning: Take a deep breath and hold your breath for more than 10 seconds. If you successfully complete it without coughing, without discomfort, a sense of oppression, etc., this shows that there is no fibrosis in the lungs, indicating essentially no infection. In such critical times, do this check every morning in a clean air environment! These are serious and excellent advice from Japanese doctors who treat COVID-19 cases. Everyone should make sure that their mouth and throat are moist, never DRY. Drink a few sips of water at least every 15 minutes. WHY? Even if the virus gets into your mouth ... water or other liquids will sweep it away through the esophagus and into the stomach. Once in the belly ... Gastric acid in the stomach will kill all the virus. If you don't drink enough water more regularly ... the virus can get into your trumpets and lungs. It is very dangerous. Share this information with your family, friends and acquaintances, for * solidarity and civic sense * !!!!

It's all good. We will get through all that's going on right now! By the way, I am a little on edge, but not about my Magic. :)

I respect all of my fellow TBN members and posters, but you cannot speak for other people. You said that YOU found "HAD's" comment a joke and funny. We don't know that (Did he tell you that it was a joke?). HAD may have been serious, and the comment did attract derision. In my opinion, TrueMagicFanSince1987 did not have to apologize because as I said, the comment that HAD made was a little harsh and with all of the recent turn of events, most of us might be on edge right now. So we should just leave it at that. GO MAGIC!!!!

If HAD said it as a joke then fair enough I just found it amusing he used those choice of words but that’s his prerogative to do so. I do want to apologize for my initial reaction earlier because I had just come back to my room from a heavy day of drinking out in Mexico and shouldn’t have responded the way I did. I still stand by my original post though and the message I was trying to get across I just shouldn’t have responded the way I did and take full responsibility for doing so. We are a medicore team with our current starting 5 and shouldn’t be content with the product we currently put out on the floor. If we run this back next year with the same starting 5 doing the same old things it indicates our front office is a joke and incompetent with doing their jobs which is bring this franchise a championship or at least attempt to compete for one.

I think we were saying the same things a coulpe of years ago! :P

If you have lung problems.. kidney problems and poor immune system it's very dangerous. Old age is also a issue probably as the body wont be a strong as it used to be.. which is common sense

I don't really know what to say on it all. But yeah if your old or have a poor immune system stay safe and vigilant. Seems to me like the mass panic has been driven up by the media. Quite outrageous really. It really is just a strain of flu. I'd be more concerned if it the death toll was kids and younger people .. it's not at all

In 15 mins, when my son wakes up, I get to explain to him that we won’t be going to the game tonight, and he won’t be on the court paired up with a Magic player during the national anthem, and we won’t be cutting down the net on the court after the game, and he won’t be getting a Jonathan Isaac bobble head ...on his 8th birthday. Thanks NBA

I can say with nearly 100% certainty that if a game was played in Orlando tonight not a soul would walk away with coronavirus, and even if they did they would have roughly the same likelihood of perishing as anyone diagnosed with influenza B (with similar risk factors). This whole thing is getting totally blown out of proportion...that's what's ridiculous.

Influenza B mortality rate is 1-2%. Maybe we should just cancel everything and live in shelters underground
