Today the CDC stated is preparing for widespread outbreak in the US and that it may last beyond this year. I ask everyone DO NOT ATTEND a class or Milonga if you feel ill, have a fever, chills or a cough of ANY kind. I request all instructors and hosts ask attendees if they feel well enough to dance with others at the start of any social gathering. This is a very contiguous virus. Please be considerate of others. Do not wipe out someone's class just because you think it is a cough, its nothing. ---------------- T.G.I.F.
