A vaccine for coronavirus has existed for years. It has been adjusted to be specific for CoVID-19 and is in testing. Human coronaviruses were first identified in the mid-1960s. The best-known Conoaviruses are Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS-CoV) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV) and the 2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV).

To all the fucking idiots buying 15 cases of toilet paper for a respiratory virus.....FUCK YOU! You stupid fucking dipshits who went and wiped out entire stores, and made it impossible for the elderly and less fortunate to go acquire essential household items.
A BIG FUCK YOU goes out to the entitled, greedy, and selfish rich fucks who went and filled up the backs of their trucks with sanitizer, thermometers, etc. and are now selling those items at 6 times the cost! I hope the virus hits you hard, you fucking selfish losers!
Played right into the media’s mass hysteria narrative and amplified it ten-fold by being ignorant, dumb fucks.
Hope the rest of you guys aren’t seeing this in your areas. Pretty sad and pathetic.
Just a friendly reminder:
H1N1 infected over 22% of the world (1.3 BILLION-PEOPLE, over 200,00 deaths).
Not a single incident of panic and hysteria.
Nothing closed down.
That virus you ACTUALLY NEEDED TO stockpile toilet paper because you lived on the toilet for at least two days.
Wake the fuck up people! Jesus Christ!

COVID-19: Important Information for
AMAC Members on Medicare
The health and safety of our members is our greatest concern as cases
of 2019 novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) continue to rise. Older adults, and
those specifically with diabetes, heart, lung or kidney disease may be
twice as likely to have serious COVID-19 illness. As such, most people
on Medicare will naturally be at a higher risk.
The CDC is asking anyone with symptoms to call their health care
provider or local health department for guidance before seeking care to
avoid spreading germs to others.
However, if you develop emergency warning signs - pain or pressure in
the chest, disorientation or confusion, a blue tint in your face or lips, or
difficulty breathing or shortness of breath - seek medical attention
immediately.
If your doctor suspects COVID-19, Medicare will cover the following
related needs:
• Medicare covers the lab tests for COVID-19. You will pay no out of
pocket costs.
• Medicare covers all medically necessary hospitalizations. This includes if
you're diagnosed with COVID-19 and might otherwise have been
discharged from the hospital after an inpatient stay, but instead you need
to stay in the hospital under quarantine.
• There is currently no vaccine for COVID-19. However, if one becomes
available, it will be covered by all Medicare Prescription Drug Plans (Part
D).
• If you have a Medicare Advantage Plan, you have access to these same
benefits. Medicare allows these plans to waive cost-sharing for
COVID-19 lab tests. Many plans now offer additional telehealth benefits.
If you have questions about your Medicare coverage and costs, call us at
800-334-9330 for assistance. You may also click here to request a call
from us at a time that is convenient for you.
AMAC is committed to making sure you have all the information you
need to be prepared in the event of an outbreak in your community.
