    How do you guys think the Coronavirus will impact exam testing the next few weeks? Hardly any impact? Maybe just a higher than usual number of people coughing around you in the test room? Or maybe cancel some exams? Or at least rescheduling? Think I’ll be able to re-schedule my FAR exam and save my horribly unprepared arse? 😀

    This virus thing is driving everyone NUTS. So I guess We'll have to wait to see what AICPA says. I plan to take a mask with me if they will let us. I wonder if we can use disinfectant wipes to wipe off the desk and chair (too far)? Who knows, but I'll be ready to pass, and protected.

    Who knew you could get a virus drinking Coronas.

    This is why I'm switching to Heineken.

    Based on my experience with my Prometric back in the day, if anyone was sick they always sprayed down the area with lysol, and used wipes on the mouse and keyboard/desk.
    Based on the current fatality rate, this Corona Virus appears to be less deadly than the common flu.
    I think they are over hyping it. You also need to remember that not all areas of China currently have the best medical care.
    I think lots of people will get sick, but I don't see this working out to be a total quarantine situation, but could be wrong.

    Hopefully no one loses a testing date over this.

    Overall, the CDC estimates that 12,000 and 61,000 deaths annually since 2010 can be blamed on the flu. Globally, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that the flu kills 290,000 to 650,000 people per year.

    FAR retake in 11 days (with BEC expiration on the line) currently scarier than the Coronavirus to me personally 🙂

    @david, We hear ya….this whole process is scarier than Coronavirus. I agree that it is so much hype until it is annoying. Now it's the stock markets, and economy. It can't get any worse than what it already is….very annoying.

    Meh, we're overdue for a Bubonic Plague (although that was bacterial). Something like this was only a matter of time.

    From my understanding that all candidates will be required to wear bio hazard suit while taking the exam.
