That makes sense. The only way toilet paper could be globally sold out is people are filling spare rooms with it for some insane reason.
And someone was trying to figure out why the markets went down a lot. Smh.
On average, humans are dumb. Statistically, the ones that are able to trade equities should be slightly smarter than those with Costco memberships but at this point, I think the average trader should be more accurately referred to as "less dumb".

Also here are the symptoms:
NBA suspends season after player tests positive for coronavirus - TSN.ca
The NBA has suspended its season “until further notice" after Utah Jazz star Rudy Gobert reportedly tested positive Wednesday for the coronavirus, a move that came only hours after the majority of the league's owners were leaning toward playing games without fans in arenas. Both the Jazz/Thunder...

Meanwhile "Only essential staff and limited family at NCAA tournaments". So you are going to put a bunch of athletes from across the country in close physical contact including much sweat to be repeated day after day, but don't worry, we are limiting the exposure. Pull your heads out of your *****. Either the pandemic is important and every effort should be made to minimize the spread or college sports are the most important thing in the world and short of extinction nothing can stop them. Ugh. Wankers.
Here is the real reason "The men's tournament generated more than $900 million in revenue last year for the NCAA and its members, though the majority of that was from a media rights deal with CBS and Turner that pays about $800 million per year." Who cares about spreading a pandemic throughout the country when you are stinking rich? We are talking about 132 teams including all players, support staff and "limited family" (wtf that means) all commingling. I don't see how sickness doesn't spread in that environment.

The buzzer-beaters, upsets and all the other shining moments of this year's NCAA tournaments will be played in mostly empty arenas.

That may not be a bad short term approach. Two week quarantine for the world to be able to determine hotspots where further measures are required. March break is going to be a complete cluster with people congregating, spreading and then returning.

Latest info on corona from public health/health canada:
www.canada.ca
80% of people with the disease are those who traveled recently, the rest are close relatives of the travelers, 1 person has died in canada.
Will be thanking the old man once again for bringing me to canada as a kid.
COVID-19: Current situation - Canada.ca
Information for Canadians on COVID-19 (coronavirus) including current cases, risk, monitoring, COVID-19 variants and how to get updates.

What do you want to bet that all US citizens in europe will just fly back to a canadian airport and drive/take a bus south and then a domestic flight if they have a distance to go? Nothing says "prevent the spread of disease" like spending hours in three different sickness tubes on the way home. If Trumpy had done what I consider the more logical move of closing the borders, that stupidity wouldn't work.

I think I had that twice this year already.
If Canada is smart, they will do exactly the same.
US citizens in Europe will just rebook their flights and get back before this Friday. Some of them might even be bringing the disease with them.
It will only matter a little bit. Evidence is mounting that the disease is widespread in North America already.
