Wearing a non-medical mask can help protect others from #COVID19. Some people can spread the virus when they have very mild symptoms or may not know that they have it. A mask helps to contain droplets from talking, laughing, singing, coughing, or sneezing: ow.ly/cc1h50AXMS4

We admit, sometimes wearing a mask in public isn't the most fashionable or comfortable choice. But some people wear Leafs jerseys, so yeah. Just saying.

Strains from Europe and Eastern Canada account for most COVID-19 cases in B.C., genomic data shows | CBC News cbc.ca/news/canada/british-c…; great example of what genomics can do for COVID-19, but the data for this observation should be made publicly available to support the statement!

COVID-19 is not the “Chinese virus." It is a worldwide pandemic. My administration stands with the Asian community in rejecting these falsehoods and racism. Chicago’s response to this pandemic will be determined by science and compassion, not fear and bigotry.

NEW: here’s today’s update of the coronavirus outbreak trajectory chart
Current data show the virus spreading faster in the US than in all European countries except Italy, but all western outbreaks remain on broadly similar paths ft.com/content/a26fbf7e-48f8…

Let's dispel the notion that "novel coronavirus is just like the flu". Sharing this striking comparison of #Flu, #COVID19, #SARS and #MERS made by @BioRender.
#COVID19 is 30x more deadly and almost 2x more contagious than the flu. We have no existing immunity to COVID19.

Genetic sequences of viruses isolated from the scaly animals are 99% similar to that of the circulating virus — but the work is yet to be formally published. ift.tt/37276dS
