I wish the numbers could stay low, unfortunately it doesn't look like that's how this thing is going to play out.

Both Grand Cities and Columbia Mall in GF remain open.

I wish we could do that, I'm afraid we are going in the other direction based on the back log of tests in ND I've heard about. What's strange is why haven't malls and other non essential retailers where people are gathering been shut down? Why did the shutdown apply specifically to restaurants and bars? Not really fair to them to be singled out but allow the malls to stay open.

Remember when trump was bragging of West Virginia having no infections. This is what was really going on there.... https://apple.news/AYpuZFKrrSfmHh8FLzY-aww The extent some will go to defend how this has been handled by our government is disturbing.

Thing is, this isn’t about the election. This is about how our president is handling the pandemic.

Donald Trump, our selfless President.

Do you disagree with the mask policy on droplet precautions?

Disagreed. They have a very smart doctor right there and basic droplet precautions are being ignored. If you knew of someone with a pending test would you want to be in contact with them? Can any medical professionals chime in on hospital system policies for droplet precautions? This is our president!

You know this is being handled poorly when the vp is due to be tested because of exposure and standing directly next to the president and no ppe in use.

It could easily be argued Italy had a better defense than us against this, they are just weeks ahead of us in dealing with it.

Of course i do. So Italy could have been more prepared than us in testing? And were their people taking it as seriously as us?

At the same time our infection rate is now climbing faster than italy’s ever has. I urge many of you to see how this has played out in other countries, comparing measures taken, and consider what this could mean to US lives over the next several months.

If this is regarding hoeven I’m not saying he committed fraud. Rather his active investment strategy being a different message than that he poses politically...lacks integrity.

Ok not only ventilators. A number of medical supply companies whose products will be in high demand under the medical emergency we are under. And a number of companies that will likely be saved by the federal government to maintain and increase production.

Isn’t it odd the he invested 125k in ventilators but at the same time his message is to act on facts not fear and that we are a state of calm?

Come on old fella that’s different from the other senators that sold off when they saw the market would go to $h*+. Much different. He’s said so himself! He knew all of our health would be going to $h*t so invested in the companies producing the products that we don’t have enough of to keep everyone alive. all while keeping that message...”calm down, we act on facts and not fear in the state of calm”

Obviously there's a new worldwide demand for the med and there will not be enough of it for a very long time I'd assume? What are the chances the chinese know of another treatment but don't want to share and kill the supply?

The lengths some will go to defend him considering how wrong he was on this is frightening.

For every four people that have recovered, three have passed away. Let's hope it's nothing like that here in the ext 7-14 days.

Ok had to come back. I have to third this. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate everyone that works in healthcare and for sharing your insight here. You are amazing!

How did Taiwan do it then? ok leaving now:)

Been stuck under a rock I take it? it was a matter of days ago that trump said this is nothing to worry about. Now he is recommending to not gather in groups larger than 10 and to stay home. It was also a few days ago that Fox News was defending trump’s stance and making jokes about social distancing. Now they are admitting they were wrong and practicing social distancing themselves. Do we start start taking this seriously finally? Have a good day everyone and please stay safe!

One side?

Trump has admitted he was wrong. Fox News has admitted they were wrong. When will we as ND residents finally catch up and realize this is serious? We have been almost unscathed so far and hopefully we can preserve.

Great idea! Let’s do that!
