Survey of Nation’s Frontline Registered Nurses Shows Hospitals Unprepared For COVID-19. “Responses from more than 6,500 nurses in 48 states, including the District of Columbia and the Virgin Islands, show that high percentages of hospitals do not have plans, isolation procedures, and policies in place for COVID-19; that communication to staff by employers is poor or nonexistent; that hospitals are lacking sufficient stocks of personal protective equipment (PPE) or are not making current stocks available to staff; and have not provided training and practice to staff on how to properly use PPE.”
Trust Gloria Allred to get involved suing Americans:
“Amid worries about the global coronavirus outbreak, a 13-year-old Vietnamese American student at Walter Reed Middle School in North Hollywood is alleging that he was singled out by his teacher — and ultimately forced to transfer classes — after coughing in his honors science class.
The student, eighth-grader Dylan Muriano, said his teacher sent him to the nurse’s office in early February after he coughed as a result of swallowing water. Muriano said that the unnamed teacher refused to answer when he asked whether it was because he is Asian.
The teacher subsequently sent him to the dean’s or principal’s office multiple times, said attorney Gloria Allred, who is filing a complaint on Muriano’s behalf with the civil rights office of the U.S. Department of Education.
Allred said that as part of what she called the “ongoing retaliation” against Muriano...

UPDATE: A high-school friend who lives in Italy now writes:
The news that I want to share is that the numbers being reported don’t seem to include those admitted to the hospital. In Italy we have (approximate numbers) tested 20,000, 4,000 confirmed, 200 deceased, 500 cured in the hospital and 600 currently in intensive care. I don’t know if anyone is in the hospital with covid19 and not in intensive care. Anyway, that’s 1300/4000 (32%) requiring hospitalization. I sure hope the US finds a way to help the uninsured (and under-insured) masses!
Well, they’ll get treated and then their bills will get written off or passed to Uncle Sam. But that’s an awful lot of people requiring hospitalization. The ratio looks awful, but that may just be a function of who’s getting tested. At least, I certainly hope so.
ANOTHER UPDATE: Stanford University Cancels All In-Class Courses for Remainder of Quarter Due To Coronavirus Concerns.
“On Friday, the University of Texas announced that its Explore UT event, scheduled to be held March 7, was canceled over local and nationwide concerns of COVID-19, the disease caused by coronavirus.
The event — which has been called the “biggest open house in Texas” — was expected to attract 50,000 students, prospective students, teachers, and families to the Austin campus.”

Week before last I dehydrated a bunch of bananas.
The virus can get into air ducts...
The scientific study proving this is near the end of the first video at this web site:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCD2-QVBQi48RRQTD4Jhxu8w
So, if anyone who is shedding the virus walks into a store, the virus can make its way into an air duct of the store, then infect other folks for days...
Now you can panic... :-)
It is likely most of us will get the virus—get your immune system in as good a shape as possible to increase the likelihood you will only have mild symptoms—lots of sun, fresh air, exercise, any kind of fun...then your favorite foods...morale is key imho.
Just a note on the bottom item.
The nurses interviewed are giving you they key point.
There ARE plans in place at every hospital in the US. It is part of their licensing process. Every employee is required to have read them, and should know where they are. They sign off on their employment every year to do that.
The reality is that nurses are not going to take the extra time to read up. The Nurse Managers are probably only now being brought up to speed. And the stock of PPE is probably very low this time of year. The administrators are more interested in fellating the local Congressman than prepping their staff.
Because of this dismissive, lazy, and mud-footed response, most of the nurses questioned will be infected early and put out of commission. The rest will fade away into the night.
Easy to do? What do you use?

“I just don’t think soap and hand sanitizer is going to work.”
Anything that helps to reduce your viral load is beneficial.
Bam! I called it on Ash Wednesday. People just don’t think.
“St. Cecilia Catholic Church near the Hedwig Village area is asking some parishioners who attended an Ash Wednesday Mass to contact the Harris County health department about possible exposure to the new coronavirus.
In an email to the congregation Friday night, church officials wrote that one of the Houston-area individuals who tested positive for the virus this week received ashes and had communion in the hand at the 5:30 pm service on Feb. 26. The individual did not receive communion from the cup.”
That Iran number is a joke!
They probably have thousands of deaths at this point.
Total dumpster fire, will just have to burn itself out on its own—for however long that takes....
In the link on the previous post (first video, about half way in) there is a document from a national nurse’s association with a list of “demands” of hospitals of what is needed to keep them safe.
Check it out...
We do know from shedding studies that people can shed in the pre-symptomatic phase,” Van Kerkhove said, adding that while the data are still preliminary “it seems that people shed more in the early phases rather than the late phases of disease.”
If people can infect others before they know they themselves are ill, it makes it much more difficult to break the chains of transmission.
I’ve got an excalibur dehydrator hubby got me for Mother’s day when the kiddos were teeny.
I use it for lots of things!
I dehydrated a bunch of precut frozen broccoli I got from Kroger last week.
Also 10lbs of onions, 3 heads of celery. I’m going to grate some carrots for soup and dehydrate those when I’m done with the ‘sale’ bananas.

9 hours ago - “No positive test results for COVID-19 have been received by Austin Public Health at this time.”
Correct.
That is why the virus is making monkeys out of world leaders.
Simple dehydrator.
Over ripe bananas are my biggest purchase at Costco. Slice them up in the food processor, toss them on the dehydrator for 24 hours. My wife eats them to get the potassium. They are tasty.
