Could the virus survive in a shipment of fishing lures if made by someone infected??  Kind of a crazy thought....  Might explain the people infected in the US with no known source.  Open a crank bait box and get the COVID 19.😬  Or anything made there really.

I wonder if it has been here for a while, but being that it is flu-like no one knew until they started testing.

don't have a clue and don't believe one single word being written by anyone.  I do know that the CDC reports that 15,000+ people have died in the USA because of the Flu this winter.  I wonder how many have died in China because of the flu?

I sure don't know the answer to that.

Well, as sad/sick/twisted as it is to say out loud......leave it to me to blurt it out.....There IS a population problem that needs to be reckoned with, and the breeders aren't slowing down any.

Your karma debt is off the charts😆.  I wouldn’t even want to be in your 5 county area when it comes back around.  Collateral damage and all😁

I've got way more good Karma owed to me than bad.    😁  So whenever we can start tallying that up and cashing it in, I'm ready.  😊

             Wrench do you have plenty of Mercury and other Asian made parts on hand? 😷 

Darn few.  I order it as I need it.  I've heard that there's already a backorder on Optimax compressors and tracker valve diaphragms.  So I'll be taking down-payments on anything Merc that has to be ordered.   I'm not gonna tie up thousands of MY operating dollars waiting on delivery.  

My suppliers are famous for taking your money BEFORE telling you that the part is backordered.
