My room mate told me last night that he wasn't feeling well, and this morning he said he's feeling worse and is going to take the day off work.

I'm terrified he has the corona virus. As far as I know he hasn't been in contact with anyone from the major outbreak countries, but he uses transit all the time, which is a germ incubator. And I read in the paper that our public health agency is investigating over 100 new cases.

I don't want to be a hypochondriac or needlessly panic, but I'm seriously scared, as I have a history of developing pneymonia whenever I catch anything respitory.

Just worried.
