“Mr. b has to go back to town to get his meds and I’m putting my foot down on lock down.”

I have to run out and get some medicine for our elderly neighbor. It’s a pain in the butt. Come back, decon, take a shower, get dressed and then drop the stuff off. (I HATE taking showers in the middle of the day - such a waste of time.)

Our symptoms are exactly the same.
Good news is co-worker tested negative.
Yay for him and everyone
Working from home

I’m sure you saw Hogan’s presser?

I’m perfectly fine with his health surge, but unless his medical experts and other advisors gave him reason to believe the virus was freely running through the entire state, I don’t see why people in Western Maryland and the Eastern Shore should be punished because some idjits were running around in Montgomery and PG.

I suppose it’s easier to make overall uniform state guidelines instead of by county. You can’t expect the idiots in those 2 counties to comprehend that sort of detail lol.

Btw I hear PA closed liquor stores. So, if MD is next - stock up on your favorite brew.

CoVid-19 can lurk for weeks in the body after symptoms are gone and tests show it’s over. Epidemologists don’t know when it is definitely over. I’d be nervous for months.

No beer, since grain exposure could make me more symptomatic with COVID (more inflammation, etc.). I’ll just stick to my one slice of whole-grains bread a day.

They do want plenty of social distance, only from the parents!

Actually my 2 older ones are just 11 and 13, and luckily aren’t too bad about that yet. But those lovely family walks and family yoga I had intended for lockdown have yet to materialize...

Yeah I saw that on Twitter. There are a lot of people who have really changed their tunes, even among epidemiologist “rock stars” or whatever. Angela Rasmussen was calling people fear mongers for weeks - now in between her nonstop “woke” agenda which is puke inducing, she is all about “flattening the curve.” I certainly don’t follow her - but many people RT her, so I used to see her stuff before I muted her.
