“White House briefing at 4:30 today.”

They are giving Texas Gov Abbott 30 minutes to do his thing. It’s rumored Texas will announce lockdown today.

I like him too, but somethings I disagree with him on. He thinks the virus is zoonotic. I think it was created in a lab.

[caww]

Well he's only responsible for his own bankrupt state. Once he got the Gov. tax payer help flowing to his state he doesn't have to pay for now. And because NY has been declared a natural disaster the revenue wil flow there after this passes. He's a happy man as Gov.

I've been listening to him since he went to TV reporting, hate the guy honestly He's a shyster in every sense of the term

“Vaccine...one must realize we have a vaccine for the flu. “

But we’ve never created a vaccine for a Coronavirus. You know the saying, “No cure for the common cold.”

One of the most interesting little tidbits in his report today was that Sweden was not making any attempt to limit social activities.

That will be interesting to watch in the next few weeks—probably people will be wondering why the Swedes are so much more vulnerable to the disease than other Europeans.

Must be the blond hair... ;-)

OMG (oh my goodness), if only tits were brains!

OMG,..Madonna turning Vogue into some weird song about fried fish.

The rest of the headline from The Sun:

"...as Mnuchin tells 80m to prepare for 12-week shutdown"

and in the body of the story is says:

"Mnuchin says that families could be locked down for up to twelve weeks."

What Mnuchin did say is that the fiscal stimulus package:

"I would say we're looking at this from anywhere to a 10 to 12 week scenario."

Again. What. The. Hell.

Shame on me. Shame on you.

But most of all, shame on The Sun. Absolute FAKE NEWS. Dammnit.

Interesting thread on that outlier, Japan.

California has moved to surveillance testing in several counties. However they will not release results.

The first state to do so.

Quick action APPEARS to have flattened the curve here, unlike NY and WA.

Stockholm syndrome. Their new deaths / total deaths ratio/percentage is 20. If that's the path they're on, look for it to climb, unless they have treatments now to counter the death rate - which some are now indeed proving to be successful.

Thanks Jane, doing some car repairs this morning - now catching up!

[calenel]

No.

Still plenty of people the Wuhanic Plague hasn’t met, yet.

Containment is key.

The Fed has already bailed out some hedge fund

With what, I always wonder. Printing press running giga-overtime?
