Very good suggestion.
We have two sources who state we are going to Delta. One hospital and one State Police.
Today we were informed (directly) the state has run out of swabs and is looking for options. Everything else is in supply.
What is normal?

Reminds me of the piles of shoes at the Holocaust Museum.

Hearing a lot about texts from “friends at DHS” or “friends with connections at DHS” that say DHS is planning a national lock down.
THIS IS NOT TRUE.
Do not believe the disinformation campaigns. Please do not pass it along. Use trusted local and federal government sources.

I am. They are preparing for a national lock down.
I’d like to see what guidance doctors use for testing. But no. Seems any useful info about the outbreak is hidden.
Getting those ‘so-morbid’ and other ICU candidates into the system early would help flatten the curve.
Well I better go get more .... nope, got everything .... wait, beer, I’ll need more beer

Don’t know how much to believe from Reddit but an interesting post. Either way we prepped weeks ago.
Believe it or not, beer distributers were deemed essential and left to operate in Pennsylvania.
IIRC, they can't burn pacemakers, they have to remove them from the, um, client.
Otherwise when they get hot enough they explode with enough force to blow the door off the chamber. This is very hard on the operator.
A cell phone might pose a similar risk...
Lithium batteries do blow pretty hard.
US has steepest curve.
Not good.
The article makes it sound like a ‘bad’ thing.
But it’s just common sense not to test if it doesn’t make any difference LOL!

Some are just rough averages, but close enough to get the idea.
If the trend, which is settling at doubling every 2-2.3 days continues, it’s coming fast. Even if it shows to every three days, it only pushes the numbers ahead by a day or so.
Hang on
