Continuation of the Thread
I said three weeks ago we needed 10,000 isolation tents on Midway Island with fresh water and medevac to Hawaii if ICU care was needed.
Now, it’s too late.
Per the evening news, “the patient” is a she. Nothing else new.
Isn’t socialized medicine grand?

England only has 15 available beds for adults to treat the most severe respiratory failure and will struggle to cope if there are more than 28 patients who need them if the number of coronavirus cases rises, according to the government and NHS documents.
Poor dog probably was put down when all that happened was a test area from his fur tested positive for being petted by his owner.
If this is so, then it just jumped species. I doubt it today but ask again tomorrow.
Finally.
I’ve gotten tired of that meme.
Can you say air vents and sloppy hygiene? They better be tested again and again.
agree-Hypocritical libs like Pelosi and Schumer are playing politics with the Corona Virus and people are already panicking.
Just try to find a common N95 mask. Amazon, Walmart, CVS, Target are all sold out. I was in an Ace Hardware store getting some weed killer and the guy said they just had a rush-a rush on masks, he got 200 boxes in and sold out in an half an hour won’t have more for weeks.
Pence needs to speak daily on Corona virus AND speak about the collaboration the administration is doing with Bio Tech firms to find anti-bodies (best approach IMHO ) with Regeneron,symbol Regn, this is the company that shut down ebola. If the market holds above 25,000 the recovery in markets typically takes about 4-5 months but Dems will try and make this worse by showing how Trump is minimizing it to win 2020 election and if stock market stays down, Trump will lose as it will kick off recession as in 2008.
Trump took too much of the Rush Limbaugh approach (hey flu kills too) and it did the opposite of what it intended as evidenced by market sell off today and people panicking more.
Trump or Pence should speak more to specifics as to what he is doing (and they are) including banning flights, the big one is how HHS IS working with Regeneron, Regn on antibodies, with Vaxart Inc. (NASDAQ: VXRT on vaccine, new Sepsis Dr. Marik protocol to shut this virus down which unlike regular flu can mutate and has a much much higher death rate. If he wants bonus points he can talk about how these advances will help reduce regular flu deaths as opposed to being surprised to how how many die from flu. Gawd the deaths from virus will be bad enough but a President Sanders will be bad
JUST IN: China reports 327 news cases and 44 deaths
CDC opening up testing restrictions. About time.
The US Navy has ordered all ships that have visited countries in the Pacific region to effectively self-quarantine and remain at sea for 14 days in order to monitor sailors for any coronavirus symptoms https://cnn.it/38bRIwh
Passengers were told to stay seated. And keep breathing in the germs.
Thanks +(again)
YES....excellent post!
Hubby and I have been saying the EXACT same thing.
Praying Trump turns this into the great opportunity it CAN be/become.
I feel confident he will...because...if nothing else, he trolls these treads :)
first case in Nigeria
Agree to leave one long thread.
Just a few current examples above. Early in February, an employee of a hearing aid company related the impact on his company. In December, they had a huge backlog of orders. Fulfillment of the orders was dependent on plastic parts made in China. On order. On return to work, the Corona virus was becoming a public topic of conversation. Inquiries about the critical shipment were made. Items not shipped. Subsequent inquiries gave later ship dates, then "it's not coming...ever". Immediate layoffs instead of bright, stable future. The company then filed for bankruptcy. The experience was related on a Twitter account.
Come on...
Start a new thread meanwhile.
VL will get over it in a while.
...as evidenced by market sell off today and people panicking more.
Disagree in part. The market started to sell off in the late PM after Gov. Newsom said ~8400 people were being monitored for COVID-19. HE mentioned this at a news conference.
