As one of the replies to that tweet says: maybe we're the virus and this is the Earth's vaccine.

I don't think there's an argument against this reply.

I would feel more at peace if that was the answer instead of someone eating bat soup

I know that coronaviruses (viri? virii? virae?) are believed to have their origins in the bat population, but I thought that the bat soup as cause of this theory had been dispelled?

South Korea has aggressively tested cases of COVID-19 and won praise for its handling of the pandemic. The country's basketball league now has games scheduled at the end of this month after a 4-week long hiatus.

I believe it has, but not sure. Never thought it was 100% credible. I think it has been traced back to the Wuhan market and I believe some of it is attributed to questionable food hygiene practices and possibly sketchy animals sold there.

The Alex Jones tier theory is that it originated from the biochem testing lab located in Wuhan.

The source of the coronavirus is believed to be a "wet market" in Wuhan which sold both dead and live animals including fish and birds.

Such markets pose a heightened risk of viruses jumping from animals to humans because hygiene standards are difficult to maintain if live animals are being kept and butchered on site. Typically, they are also densely packed.

The animal source of the latest outbreak has not yet been identified, but the original host is thought to be bats. Bats were not sold at the Wuhan market but may have infected live chickens or other animals sold there.

Bats are host to a wide range of zoonotic viruses including Ebola, HIV and rabies.

This was in Contagion.  Bats infect the pigs, pigs go to market, chef buys the pig, chef shakes hands with Gwyneth Paltrow, Gwyneth Paltrow fucks a bunch of dudes, pandemic.

As I've always suspected, this is all Gwyneth Paltrow's fault.

If you're going to the hospital for a covid-19 test make sure you bring with you a valid form of identification along with a printout of your IMDB page and/or your Basketball Reference stats

Kinda like the only time I hear about the Koch Brothers is from Bernie's Bros talking about how they saw how evil they are on Rachel Maddow while working on their liberal arts degrees?

Just got word from the boss. Getting moved to part-time until April, with a determination to be made at that point.

Considering that I've got enough saved to ride this out for a little bit, and absolutely no leverage in terms of trying to find another job at this point, I have nothing else to do besides accept it, work within the new world for the next couple of weeks and hope against hope that this gets better. There are plenty of people who are way worse off than I.

I've already discussed with my wife the very real possibility that we need to put the house up, get off of this island and go back to Jersey.
That sucks man, I hope you make it through ok.
