So far (could obviously change) all of those infected in the US had traveled to Wuhan and picked it up there. Travel out of 11 Chinese cities has been prohibited for 4 days now so the airport is most likely clear. Follow normal Flu type precautions such as washing your hands regularly and avoiding touching your face if possible. Some people for peace of mind bring Clorox wipes to wipe down their seat and tray table. The CDC currently believes the disease is transmitted through saliva so hygiene when eating will be the biggest thing.

DONT TOUCH YOUR FACE

For now I wouldn’t be super concerned yet, but I would be vigilant. I carry face masks with me when I travel (in case people around me are coughing openly into the air) and would wash my hands / use hand sanitizer before eating or touching any parts of my face. Keep your air vent on always and face away from other people’s coughs and sneezes if possible.

My sibling is currently going through opioid withdrawal and my family and I would like her to go to detox. She’s insisting that detox isn’t helpful, and just makes her want to use (She has run from detox 5x over the past 4 years). She would like to detox at home instead, but if she is going to go to rehab, I she needs to spend at least some time in detox.

Should we let her detox at home or is this just asking for trouble? Can provide more details in the comments, but there is a character limit
