If you saw a train rushing toward you at full speed, would you move as quickly as possible to avoid a crash, or would you say, well more people die from car crashes than trains, so no big deal?

“So what exactly does Governor Northam know that made him change his mind in a little over 24 hours?”

They’re now hearing from the healthcare providers. They know it’s here, and in full force.

we will see pent up demand for everything through this and then inflationary prices in the short term when things get rolling again. so a strong dip, skyrocketing demand, price increases and some inflation and the economy will come out of this more balanced and stronger. More companies will locate supply chain on this continent.

...and I still remember the warning you gave all of us 2 or 3 weeks ago (an eternity now), which was when your friend said “yes, this is it”.

Yes. I always temper that incident with the thought that this is ONE epidemiologist in a VERY LARGE organization, but it isn't looking good for us all.

Keep this in mind...of all the players in the NBA that God choose to strike the Mighty Wuhan on..it was the player mocking the whole thing.

Just saying...think God was sending out a message to the NBA or something...

that poster might want to keep that in mind

Well, in VA, all suspected cases are required to be reported to the VA Health Department.

But the VA Health Department changed their policy earlier this week, and stopped reporting pending tests.

Maybe the growth in pending tests is the real reason.

I have also wondered why the local university, which is also home to a top flight medical school and hospital, has been so insistent on telling students NOT to come back after spring break, even if they have an annual lease on an apartment.

If the cases are exploding at the local hospitals, it would explain a lot.

I have a nagging feeling that one of two things are going on.

1. There is something about this virus that hasn’t been made public yet but has been revealed to Governor(s) etc. If so it cannot be kept a secret much longer.

2. This is all a big operation by the PTB to dump the economy. If so it is well planned and well executed.

To much action(cancellations) today to just be panic.

We keep a 4 gallon bucket of rice at all times. We all like it. I keep beans around too in case the shtf but I’m the only one who really likes them. I spend maybe $30/yr swapping them out with new ones. The old ones get scattered out in the yard. If they grow, it adds nitrogen to the soil.

Washington

Governor Jay Inslee‏Verified account @GovInslee Follow Follow @GovInslee  More Closing schools can have an impact on staff at hospitals, health care facilities and other critical services. To mitigate this, I have asked school superintendents to provide free childcare to families of medical professionals and first responders.

"Free childcare"... all the schools are anymore.

Well said, BobL.

Imho the cases are _not_ exploding at the local hospitals _yet_, except _maybe_ in Washington state.

But, the virus growth is exponential, so anyone capable of math can figure out where this is going, and how long it will take to get there....

They just did the math today—somebody gave them math lessons—that is it, that is all of it.

I won't call him back. He hung up for a reason. Someday, he'll tell me why.
