New thread
Did a grocery store look here in West Kentucky. There are no confirmed cases here but every grocery store I went past was jam packed on a Monday morning.
Thanks—to you and the other Freepers who got me up to speed in the early days.
A food truck in our town has about 20 people waiting in line.
People standing next to each other no social distancing lol.
All restaurants are closed except take out.
The worse this thing gets, the better the chances for President Trump’s reelection.

Everyone make it through the Ides of March, I hope.
I did get bad news in a unscheduled meeting today.
It does effect me since I remote in via google hangout. but my coworkers are.
Last Week one coworker had a friend die from the virus.
This coworker show up to our Thursday meetings then on Friday he got sick. The friend that pass away was in their 30s.
They have notified our office they are all exposed. I am a full time telecommuter and I did not drive in last week. Total of 30 coworkers are waiting to see if the other coworker is infected.
When we drive in we spend the day with each other and each lunch together. They are worried. We are on full time telecommute, all required drive in meetings have been cancel.
BUMP for later reading and possible commenting...
FReeper tired of the bashing of other FReepers who are concerned about coronavirus

Wholesale gasoline is selling for about 40 cents a gallon less than ethanol right now. Trump should issue an exec order lifting the mandate on ethanol percentages in gasoline blends.
Just returned from Kroger with my wife. We were able to buy most everything we needed. But there is ZERO TP, ZERO hand sanitizer and soap. And the only eggs remaining are the $6 a dozen “organically raised” kind. My wife said she’d rather go hungry than pay $6 for a dozen eggs.
I was on the fence. I like eggs. But, I have no idea what they’re supposed to cost?
How are Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson doing? They made a big splash about their infections. How long has it been? A couple of weeks? Are they still alive?
I am concerned that we are way overdoing our response at this point. I think a more sensible way forward would be to ask our older population to impose upon themselves restrictive social distancing and wait out the pandemic while the vaccine is developed.
Well, they have closed schools here in rural ozarks, at least the one in the direction of the interstate. The one in the opposite direction, where my kids would have gone if we didn’t homeschool, I haven’t heard about yet but they probably won’t be far behind.
