Obviously there are other factors and decision makers involved, but it's events like this that can really get the ball rolling.

That's what I'm hoping for anyways.
Same here

When this is all said and done, I wonder how culpable companies like cruise lines are going to be in the spread of this. How many people knowingly attended an event or travelled due to cancellation fees and the like - all while there was news that this bad virus was going to spread?

Companies were playing chicken with customers on who was going to cancel first, and unfortunately for those companies... all we're going to have time to do over the next little while is brew about it

Leagues in NA may have played chicken a bit too close for some's liking, but we will be out of this a lot sooner for it and our heath-care systems will be slammed considerably less for it I'm sure
