An Epidemic has Arrived

It started in China and there are thousands that have this deadly virus.
It is now worldwide, including the USA with like 59 cases and 2 deaths.
And in Italy too - diagnosed just after we left and came home.
Hundreds?Thousands have died so far.   But the US is able to handle this so much better than other countries are.  But that doesn't make it any easier for those contaminated by it.  Even the church has closed certain missions, and closed church meetings and traveling by missionaries during this crisis.  The church even announced that they are asking all priesthood leadership that would normally travel to General Conference in April, to stay home.
Kathryn and I have both had flu and serious cold symptoms, but nothing else.  This is covered on the news nightly - more areas, more deaths.
Scary times.
