I picked up some AGM batteries at Zeus today, they are made in
China. Am I going to die? I assumed they ship batteries by boat and
by the time they get here any viruses are long dead.
Chuck, how is your employee I think she was production supervisor or
something, who was sick after opening the Chinese PCBs? My daughter
in Maine just texted me she is over a nasty cold. Sometimes a cold
is just a cold.

yeah, don lemon, i cant watch that guy for more than about 2 minutes,
hes so high every night he doesnt even know whats going on,i see him
gone the way of that dude that retired on air the other day very soon.
On a serious note, we are planning to disinfect anything coming in
from anywhere, within reason. I doubt its gonna be an issue, but the
amazon warehouse guy probably got it from air freight, so why risk
it. I figure a lysol of the box and contents, but i cant see going
much beyond that without destroying electronics.
I did lysol the shit out of some batteries i got from china off ebay
for my dad today, hes 78 and has COPD, so i got that shit pretty wet
with lysol. Hes soldering them so any residue will burn off and clear
with flux. im not even sure how they got here so fast from china, my
tool is still there since january, getting pretty pissed

OK, never mind. I see this clarification from I think an
NYT contributor on Twitter:
The White House clarifies the president's Europe travel
ban "only applies to human beings, not goods and cargo.
It tracks very similar to the proclamation issued for
China. The people transporting goods will not be admitted
into the country, but the goods will be."

Did anyone listen to the POTUS address tonight? It is
being reported as a 30 day European travel ban. But I
heard him say “these prohibitions will not only apply to
the tremendous amount of trade and cargo, but various
other things as we get approval. Anything coming from
Europe to the United States is what we are discussing.”
He was clearly reading from a teleprompter, so I don’t
think he misspoke or ad libbed.
Does this not sound like all imports from Europe will be
blocked, at least for 30 days? I don’t think we’ve
blocked imports from China. We use equipment that comes
from European countries like Ukraine, Hungary, Latvia,
etc. Not sure how this would be implemented or if it
makes any sense to block thing imported goods. Also not
sure what the “various other things” would be. After
people, trade and cargo, what else is there? Internet?
News reports don’t seem to be interpreting it the way I
heard it, so maybe I’m wrong?
