California enacted a policy to not test people unless they are very sick, so don't know how that is going to play into the projections of "confirmed cases"Quote:

Every state is full of people running high fevers and getting breathing treatments and sent home untested. No one gets a test unless they are admission worthy. I look at each numbered case as a severe case unless you’re an NBA player or were on a cruise ship.Quote:

If 1Step can lick someone’s asshole and get it, you most certainly can. Just picture your food prepared, guy coughs on it just before he closes styrofoam lid. You eat within the next half hour.....Quote:

Make your own shit or if you order do the washing of hands and nuke the shit of whatever you are gonna eat that is prepared by someone you don’t know.

You know, the whole drop from 3% death rate that was initially cited to the widely-spoken-about-lately 1% number is, or should be, a huge anxiety buster for many people. Yes, I agree w Druff that no one wants a 1% death rate. But you go thru 10 years of 0.1% death rate for flu and it's pretty much the same thing, yet no young people (under 60) worry much about the flu.
I dunno. I figure with the annecdotally effective treatments already being given in every serious case in some places:
“Everybody gets that, unless they have some contraindication.” talking about chloroquine beiing used in some New York hospitals participating in trials
...and the denominator going WAY up with more testing over time (you always count all the deaths but in the begining, perhaps even now, we are missing maybe 2/3rds of cases), the death rate has no where to go but down.
Stay safe, don't become obese inside your cave.

We will identify who have had the disease—are immune, and we have tested them to know that they are not infectious any longer.
They will be good to take care of your kid and cut your hair.
we will need a system that identifies them. A tattoo and a new field in a national database. Right next to your DNA info and political orientation.
It’s coming. That’s why Krypt has circles under his eyes

Yeah I said a few weeks ago I thought getting it early and beating it would like nice on a resume. Companies know they won’t have to pay for sick leave and be without an employee for a month.Quote:

A noteworthy PSA if the toilet paper shortages continue.

And with that Rand Paul just switched the Senate to Democratic control.
