I'm not exaggerating when I say it hasn't effected my life at all, except for the effort it took me to write this comment. I live in San Francisco, if it matters. San Francisco just reported its first cases today, but there's definitely been panic shopping. The city closed down Lowell today as a precautionary measure (but that leaves nearly 200 campuses open). Even if you don't suffer any health or financial effects (unlikely) you'll still be effected if: - More schools close, even more if parents have to take time off from work en masse - Public transit becomes a big vector and BART or Muni try to shut down or reduce service - People continue to panic shop. NPR had a photo from a Marin Target with shelves bare of disinfectant wipes. Rainbow in the city was almost completely out of canned tomatoes on Monday. - On a federal level, if our idiot president succeeds in closing the Mexican border you'll definitely feel some pain
