Not to mention reigning in college costs for future generations. If something isn’t done to fix the rising cost of college, then this will be an incredible waste of money. Eliminating federally backed student loans would be a really good start to curb the problem.

Nodak78 Posted November 10, 2020 Posted November 10, 2020 The ND health website must be down with Covid. NOVEMBER 10, 2020 Please note: The software that reports the number of recovered and hospitalized is down, which also impacts active cases. This info will be updated once the system is back online. Find available information on the daily news release.
The Sicatoka Posted November 10, 2020 Posted November 10, 2020 2 hours ago, jdub27 said: Mostly my thoughts as well, but are they going to have a designated "CoVid" staff so that those infected can stay away from their healthy co-workers? I know that the plan is to only have them work with already infected patients but it sure goes against the message of "if you're positive, stay home" and knowingly bringing the virus into a healthcare setting doesn't exactly scream "protect the vulnerable". I'm pretty sure there is a segregated area for just Covid patients. If they can set up that, or a floor, and designate a stairwell or elevator for just that usage they could create an isolation ward (effectively for both patients and staff).

Nodak78 Posted November 10, 2020 Posted November 10, 2020 The biden tax plan gearing up with some notably results. Schmidt, one of America’s wealthiest people, and his family have won approval to become citizens of the Mediterranean nation, according to a previously unreported notice in a Cypriot publication in October. While it is not clear why exactly Schmidt has pursued this foreign citizenship, the new passport gives him the ability to travel to the European Union, along with a potentially favorable personal tax regime. https://www.vox.com/recode/2020/11/9/21547055/eric-schmidt-google-citizen-cyprus-european-union

Walked out of the store this morning when it was 6 degrees here in beautiful western NoDak and the exhaust was pouring out of people's masks walking to their vehicles from the store, mine too. Maybe we were wearing them the wrong way, but not sure that they were very effective. All the workers in my grandmother's nursing home are required to wear gloves and masks 100 percent of the time, and some even mask up and use the plastic shield. So....how in the hell did she get Covid? 3
SiouxFan100 Posted November 10, 2020 Posted November 10, 2020 My take There is nothing that will eliminate Covid. Even after a vaccine. All we have are ways to mitigate it. I think masks help mitigate though isn't effective all the time. Social distance will mitigate. Shut downs are probably the best way to mitigate but the cost is too high and we can't shut down again. I am not for wearing masks all time outdoors. I see some wearing a mask while mowing the grass. The last guidance I heard was that masks help. That seems to be the most responsible thing to do until told otherwise.

Todays count has 803 workers in Long Care facilities positive, and 593 residents positive. https://www.health.nd.gov/diseases-conditions/coronavirus/north-dakota-coronavirus-cases My mother passed away late June this summer, I was not allowed to see her until hours before she passed. I would also ask how this happened. 1
The Sicatoka Posted November 10, 2020 Posted November 10, 2020 Hint about masks -- Look into cases of pneumonia without Covid lately. Folks aren't washing their re-use masks. 1

In your 50-50 scenario, if Manchin were to declare as he's declared (we keep filibuster, and no Court packing) and Senator Schumer* tried to squeeze Manchin hard, Manchin does have the ultimate leverage on Schumer. It'd go like ... "Really Chuck, Really? You're gonna do me like that. You really think you have me jammed up. I have Mitch on the other line and he's fitting me for an "R" right now. He really likes 51-49 and "majority leader" back by his name, and you should see the committee chair I'm getting now. See ya later, Chuck. Say "bye" to Ilhan and AOC for me." *Schumer would be majority lead if Biden was in WH as Harris would break Senate ties 1

Popular Post TheFlop Posted November 10, 2020 Popular Post Posted November 10, 2020 4 hours ago, Feff said: What gets me about this whole pandemic is the absurd number of people unwilling to do even the bare minimum to reduce spread. Gods forbid we have to be inconvenienced for any length of time. Nope. Can't wear a mask because "You can't make me" mentality, can't social distance, can't put off purely optional activities because, "it's no worse than the flu." Despite evidence to the contrary. We have to have our normal lives at all costs. The hypocrisy is what gets me. Some of the same people that think sports are evil spreading events are the ones sneaking their kids off onto special travel teams so their kids don't have to miss out ...just yours should have to miss out . The blue hairs that think the 35 and under crowd should give up bars, in person school, etc but the blue hairs should still be able to have their morning cup of coffee at Perkins or their unnecessary 12 noon on a Saturday stroll through Menards. Sturgis is still getting hammered for being the root cause of 99.9% of American Covid spread but the 3 months straight of riots in Portland and BLM protests other places are given a free pass. Don't sit here and try to pretend that 100 spectators at a JV football game is a huge issue but the Biden celebrations weren't. Be consistent. 1 6
