From the gisanddata link.

Has anyone seen French Polynesia?

Wowowowow!

And it’s equatorial to boot.

I still have pre-Fukashima canned pacific tuna, I've very proud of! :)

I do too......

But those expiration date police in my family won't touch it.

But I'm still hanging on to it. They get hungry enough and it will look pretty good to them.

But you cannot look to Italy and make assumptions regarding our healthcare structure. There are several major differences. First off they have a single payer system.

So does Taiwan and South Korea.

What is the expiration date?

Not that that matters, right?

She never had a fever. But, the surgeon said if we waited until today, there would have been much more trouble.

Chemo messes you up so much, sometimes it’s difficult to tell what is chemo, what is previous surgery, or what is a colon twisted like a sausage.

It hurt. A lot.

Thanks for the info. I still need to consolidate cash into the bank where I can use my debit card on line. I wish I could just send a check but I don’t trust my local postal people since I never got the association notice, and around the same time period 3 months of bank statements were returned to the bank saying PO could not deliver. This was crazy since I have a door slot, other mail was being delivered, and it was only envelopes. I guess I will try to see if anyone answers at my council members offices. I know that local income tax payment is being delayed, I don’t know about property tax, and there is a 10% first month late penalty.

At some point the lock-downs have to work, otherwise what's the point? Why study if you get an F no matter what, why diet if you keep gaining weight.

So, the BIG question on everyone's mind is "where's the peak"? Is it next week, next month, next year?

Italy is approx 8 days ahead of us. When a relative confidence level is reached that Italy has really crested the top of their curve, we should be next up to the plate.

Anecdote:

All deep freezers are sold out in about a 100 mile radius.

Friend was looking for a replacement for his chest freezer this past weekend. Lowes, Home Depot, etc, ALL sold out of every freezer including the floor models in some cases. One of those had 1 (one) floor model left and refused to sell it. Friend finally found one (the very last one) at a local small town furniture/appliance store. It was a scratch and dent the owner had put out front because all the others had sold.

So mmmmmaybe that’s where all the meat has gone from the grocery stores? Maybe some of the bread too? And the milk? mmmmmmaybe people will be a *little* more likely to prep a *little* in the future?

The lock downs will work—no doubt about that.

The problem is, what then?

The virus is waiting, waiting, waiting....

I have a gut feeling this virus is just the beginning of some really serious readjusting for most of humanity.

We in the US and other parts of the west, have led such sheltered lives for so long that we have forgotten what the rest of the world goes through on a pretty regular basis.

Humanity will survive.

Not good:

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/03/23/cdc-coronavirus-survived-in-princess-cruise-cabins-up-to-17-days-after-passengers-left.html

"... The [corona]virus “was identified on a variety of surfaces in cabins of both symptomatic and asymptomatic infected passengers up to 17 days after cabins were vacated on the Diamond Princess but before disinfection procedures had been conducted,” the researchers wrote, adding that the finding doesn’t necessarily mean the virus spread by surface."
