“I work in manufacturing.”

Are they stringent on what manufacturing they are allowing as “necessary” and what is not?

Yes, go ahead, ask doctors in Bergamo, Italy if it’s a hoax.

Update on west Virginia:

Now at eight positives. I don’t think pending cases are reported so IF and that is a big IF the private lab and hospitals got their testing going in a few days the numbers should really do the bunny hop hop hop.

Horror story of what our positive no.1 went through. . . Not pretty.

Not totally.

As in everytime I have asked up the chain, I don’t get much clear direction other than “keep working for now”.

Honestly, I doubt they know. Just had a confirmed case in the county, and we have some plans in place, but honestly no one has a plan to survive destroying all economic activity.

Irony is I got a head hunter calling me to do biohazard testing for 8 months. That set all sorts of alarm bells off.

Would be a massive pay cut, but if they are reaching out to people in my position someone is seeing data we are not.

The National Guard arrive at several Montgomery County Maryland hospitals to assist.

I spent most of the afternoon giving inpatient nurses the security they need in the Electronic Medical Record system to do Coronavirus testing in those tents. They’re being set up in other places, too. We’re expecting to use personnel from lots of places in the hospitals that have ramped down to supplement personnel in the ED, ICU, and other inpatient floors.

“Honestly, I doubt they know.”

There is a lot of that going around.

Probably the greater concern, rather than the county telling you to stop production and go home, is that as soon as one employee gets sick, when word of that gets around, no one will come in, anyway.

I’m starting to think that FDR had his WarBros right through Dec. 6, 1941 - people who said things like (despite Germany and Japan on the march with fully modernized militaries):

1: How many Americans has Hitler killed?
2: How many Americans has Japan killed?
3: How many Americans were killed in WW1, the Civil War, etc?
4: No need to prepare for war - if we ignore the rest of the world, why, they rest of the world will ignore us!

If FDR did know Pearl Harbor was about to be hit - I don’t blame his lack of action, considering what he had to deal with. Same for Trump.

America is rising to the challenge.

Agree. I'm just saying for that particular hospital request you have to pick up the supplies locally; you can't use your own supplies. Seamstresses across the country can't do that. If a request is made local to me I'll start sewing masks.

They are redirecting for all kinds of jobs. My son who does mold and asbestos remediation is being called on to set up isolation, negative air pressure for Covid19 patients. It really feels like a wartime effort.

Well, hopefully they’ll only shut down your county rather than the entire state, so you’ll have a shot at making money in another county that doesn’t ban workers from your county.

When adrift in the sea at night, people will grab onto any piece of flotsam they can find. The “serious or critical” statistic is worthless, as most states and counties are not providing that information. You would think the deaths outnumbering the “serious or critical” 4:1 might be a clue. Or maybe that the number, 64, hasn’t changed in days despite many deaths. When hospitals and ICU’s are screaming for help because every bed and ventilator is used, I’m sure they will scream “fake news” because some website says “only 64 are serious”. I guess the “mild cases” must be causing all the fatalities.

6.3M Noncitizens Entered U.S. at Northern Border Before Canada’s National Lockdown

Nearly 6.3 million noncitizens were granted admission to the United States in the last two and a half months by air, land, and sea at ports of entry along the northern border before Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau issued a national lockdown.

On March 16, Trudeau said he would be shutting down Canada’s borders to noncitizens with exemptions for permanent Canadian residents, diplomats, aircrews, and American citizens. Before the announcement, Trudeau had not issued a single travel ban — not even for China, Iran, South Korea, or Italy.

Federal data obtained by Breitbart News finds that between January 1 and March 15, a total of 6,275,009 noncitizens were granted admission to the U.S. from Canada. The overwhelming majority, 6,254,052 noncitizens, arrived via land, while 16,420 arrived at sea and 4,537 via air travel.

“If a request is made local to me I’ll start sewing masks. “

Few would not answer the call.

At some point many of us will be called.
