Coronavirus And Super Tuesday Voting: It's Touchy »

npr:

Elections can be very tactile. Touchscreen voting machines, paper ballots, large crowds.

With concern growing about the spread of the coronavirus, officials in a number of Super Tuesday states are taking extra precautions to assure voters that it’s safe to go to the polls. Millions of people are expected to cast ballots tomorrow in fourteen states, including some where cases of the disease have already emerged.

Like really fast. It has no vaccine, unlike the flu. Also there’s a high risk of pneumonia and bronchitis, which are unpleasant and often causes hospital visits. Plus, since it already has mammal-to-mammal transmission there’s a small chance to jump species, though I doubt it’ll happen.
