Timely information, Dr. Lee.

Thaaaanks!

BB Lee

P.S. Suddenly feel helpless as a super-senior! How the hell it could happen all of sudden?

Lived long enough to see such disaster including stable genius- now claiming 'super-genius' himself!-.

The month of March was full of schedule with two short trips to NorthEast but had to cancel whole routines

including the gyms, etc and sitting around all day and do nothing!

We seniors are basically all under house arrest as is the case in South Korea,

Italy, China and Japan.

The bad news is that there is greater than 40% chance for us to catch this virus

until the virus is gone, which may take up to 2 years according to the experts.

We are in a long battle against this coronavirus which is known to mutate

as it goes thru humans in years to come.

We seniors have no choice but adapt ourselves to this new lifestyle.

It is indeed a matter of life and a premature death.

For someone like you, Dr. Lee, who was enjoying the fullest academic activity 

and numerous international traveling and lectures, being confined to one place

would indeed be particularly difficult.

My heart certainly goes out for you.

I can only say to all of us who are in the same boat,

"Best Wishes to all of us!"
