"SEll! Sell!" (J/K!)
Health care workers (and first responders) are at highest risk.
They need to be protected.
Looks like the stock market has bigger problems than panicked customers...
And she’ll pick Schumer for her VP. He never leaves her side and now we know why.
Lookner—nursing home with deaths in WA state—seven first responders were tested—but the test processing were delayed so long the samples expired!
Testing is _still_ a crisis.
Lookner—Governor of NC says he only has supplies to test 300 people.
Lookner—Both Biden and Sanders canceled campaign events. We may have seen the last of campaign events for a while.

I have to cross a state line to help take care of my Mom...
and many many other folks as well have similar issues, but imho we _will_ get there—not a question of if, but when.
The longer we wait, the more people will die needlessly because the health care system is overloaded.
Most of them will die from _non_ virus cases. That is why concern about the virus death rates is totally missing the point imho.
I read this, and it’s a you’re on your own... Don’t call us unless it’s life or death. We aren’t testing you. No quarantine. WHAT???
the ONLY reason it’s decreased in SK is because of measures we aren’t taking.
They tested nearly EVERYbody in that region that was at risk for contact. And everyone who was positive was told to stay home.
They closed schools, public spaces, etc.
Of COURSE the numbers are decreasing now.
That didn’t just happen on its own...
Hysteria is not justified
