Health point:
I don't want to alarm anyone but the CORONAVIRUSES will soon spread irreversibly. The first means of contagion are banknotes: Don't touch them, take them with gloves and put them in an airtight envelope and leave it outside your door.
Tomorrow morning I will drop by for collection and disposal.
I do it for public health!
You're welcome.

Thank you so much. Do I have to go withdraw all of my money from the bank to ensure that I am completely safe?

Huh? So we are making jokes about a serious issue? Not funny.

That is a great question.
Yes, you need to withdraw all your money as well as any bills you may have in the house, your car or your purse. You do not however need to dispose of your coins as they are not able to transmit the virus.

The only jokes that are funny are about serious issues.

Black humour can be a great way to cope.
Yesterday a pupil of mine who was supposed to be in isolation came to school. I was standing next to him talking and in the same room for an hour and a half. I found out later that day when I was at home feeding my baby. Freaked out, sent up a heartfelt prayer, moved on.
Thanks for the laugh (wry smile) OP Very Happy

Have you never heard of money laundering?
We have been doing it for years now in our community.
And we also kasher it.

I think it’s funny.

But then the hysteria over coronavirus (which probably won’t kill you) is funny already.

The hysteria is funny?

1000 cases reported in Italy with 29 deaths so far. The numbers climbing everyday. What's funny about that?

Dark humor is a way of coping for some when things get bad.
You should hear some jokes that have gone around in Israel when missiles are flying or people were being stabbed or there were car rammings. For some, dark humor/black humor is the only way to cope. Nothing wrong with that.

Do I have to withdraw the cash? I prefer not to handle it all. Can I give you my account and access details so that you could deal with it yourself?
I don't want to have to deal with all the money coming in, would you be so kind and take control?
