Employee at Amazon warehouse tests positive for Coronavirus and it reopens 24 hours later. Let me get this straight. So nonessential businesses can't be open in some states. But when an employee actually has Coronavirus its completely fine to have that business open? https://www.vox.com/recode/2020/3/19/21186322/amazon-warehouse-coronavirus-covid-19-worker-tested-positive-delivery-station-queens-new-york I can't take a dump at a North Dakota rest area but I can go rub elbows right now in NYC with people who were just rubbing elbows with a highly contagious individual. That make a lot of sense. At what point is this all just grandstanding.

Given H1N1 had "just happened" and all the other pandemics, that isn't exactly groundbreaking stuff. But he talked about it in the context of "war". He knows all these countries really are trying to develop viruses as weapons. He was forewarning how to fight a "new type of war."

The media is sharing a chloroquine story because Trump said it today. But of course it wasn't about the positives. It was about how he "lied" (FDA approved). I often wonder if Trump throws little "quirks" into his speeches just to get people to talk about it.

Burgum goes from facts not fears to closing rest stops in record time. Really? Bathrooms closing. Worlds gone mad.

"Quantitative easing."

There's always an Elon tweet...

And what happens when the borders inevitably reopen?

I hear China says they are on the downward trend of the virus.

Enough that the city has a designated a poop patrol. Enough that virtually everyone knows it's a major problem in SF that many articles are written about it. People are pooping more than ever on the streets of San Francisco

Since we're "flattening the curve," thus prolonging how long the virus will be around. This will last a lot longer than other pandemics. Calls are already being made not to open schools in the fall.

It's illegal to go over to your buddies place if you live in San Francisco.

The only thing left is to do more "shelter in place" orders.

Not to worry. With your delivery driver handling 100s of boxes a day, he has the corona.

Forbes article: It's a great read. Apparently its common knowledge these experts are wrong a lot *cough* I mean fib... Despite World Panic, The Rate Of New Ebola Infections Is Already Slowing Down Sadly, I had to go back 5 years to find an honest assessment of "World Panic."

"Guess what kids? Since you dont have school, you're going to spend the week at Grandmas!"

The government is going to have to spent billions, if not trillions, bailing companies out.

If one person has Coronavirus at an Amazon warehouse (very likely) this will pass to a large portion of the country even with social distancing. And social distancing and panic at the big box stores means more people will be ordering stuff online.

Some 40% of Americans would struggle to come up with $400 for an unexpected expense.

Any guesses how many people this will affect? A million?

Who am I suppose to feel more sorry for? The 75 year old in the nursing home who might get Coronavirus Or The single mom in Washington State who just lost her income and no way to pay rent or daycare. Many sad stories on twitter about people wondering how they are going to survive and it's not a hypothetical. The governors said they have to shut down the inside of restaurants, casinos, movie theaters, bars, etc. And honestly this will shut down a lot of those small businesses permanently who wont be able to recover from the lack of income this is going to create for themselves.

"50 people is still too many." Ha

I had a hunch this might have been the case.

TV shows are now going off the air.

Well that didn't take long. Media member criticizing people for gathering at a bar. Now let's get them high school cafeteria pictures out there into the public people. Hurry!

Obama's lack of a sugary drink ban is what created this mess.
