And don't panic. I have heard in the news today that there are 2 people (1 couple) in NRW (North Rhine Westphalia), a west German state who are infected with coronavirus who are now in the hospital, quarantine. The village where the couple live is now closed. I am living in NRW though still far from that village but we never know. I know I don't have to be panic but my hubby told me this evening that the food in Aldi and other supermarkets might be scarce when we go shopping tomorrow afternoon. There will be plenty of people shopping a huge amount of food for storage just in case. I will buy face masks tomorrow for safety reason. Better safe than sorry. My niece in the Netherlands said that the virus has reached Tilburg already. They are not so far from Tilburg. I hope and pray that everything will be okay. Has coronavirus reached your country already?
The government has announced a new crisis team to handle its response to the spread of the disease after new cases cropped up in different parts of Germany. Scientists said the situtation is still under control.

We have 80 cases so far with several thousand under observation. I think it's going to reach every country eventually.

There are 9 in Switzerland but more than 650 in Italy not far from the border where I live. There is enough to panic.
