[OtherSideOfTheTracks]

$8.3 billion in Emergency aid was passed to deal with the Coronavirus which is good news. More good news is it authorizes $500 million to allow Medicare providers to administer "tele-health services" so elderly patients can receive care at home.

All restrictions on testing has been lifted so now a doctor can order a coronavirus test for anyone with symptoms like fever, cough or difficulty breathing. A million tests will be available this week.

Thanks, I could have asked Alexas but typed the question to fast.

I read China is banning funerals for those that die from Coronavirus. They must be cremated. They are trying to avoid large gatherings and of course cremation would kill the virus, at least we hope. I'm interested in seeing what happens here. It's likely thousands have had the virus but weren't sick enough to be concerned. That's how they will build some immunity.

The symptoms for a healthy person seem to mimic a cold more than the flu. I don't go to the doctor for either. I'm sure that's been the case for quite some time.
