Here's today's info from an MD homeopath:
The CDC has already publicized the main things we can and should do to protect both ourselves and everybody else, namely:
1) avoiding large crowds, postponing unnecessary travel, and keeping a safe distance from those you're in contact with
2) washing hands often with soap and water, and wiping off objects and surfaces in common use that you've touched or grasped
3) remembering not to touch nose, mouth, and face with your hands except when necessary
4) limiting contact with the elderly and those weakened by chronic diseases as much as possible
5) getting tested if you fall sick, covering nose and mouth when you sneeze or cough, and staying home if you test positive: all good, sensible precautions..
In addition, many physicians are recommending high doses of Vitamin C, say 3000 mg. daily for prophylaxis, and even more for the actual illness, with coughing and shortness of breath, at which point Dr. Brownstein suggests adding Vitamins A, D3, and iodine as well.
Homeopaths have had and continue to have great success treating epidemic diseases like cholera, yellow fever, measles, influenza, and flu, using a simple method that deserves much wider recognition and use.
Once about 20 or 25 cases have been investigated, one remedy will be found to fit around 75% of the cases, and is therefore designated as the basic remedy or genus epidemicus of the outbreak. It can then be given out prophylactically to people who are not yet sick, whether in the vicinity or recently exposed, and also to early cases. More advanced illness may call for other remedies.
In the US, too few cases have been seen and treated homeopathically to identify the main remedy; but colleagues in Hong Kong and Taiwan have had the most success with Gelsemium, followed by Bryonia and Eupatorium perfoliatum in advanced cases with their typical indications. For prophylaxis, they therefore recommend
Gelsemium 30C once a week in towns, rural areas, and neighborhoods far from those most seriously affected; and
in neighborhoods or crowded with many cases in the vicinity, Gelsemium 30C daily for seven days, and twice a week thereafter, until the outbreak is over.
