But the worrisome ones and where the most deaths are happening is rural/South Georgia, like Dougherty county. It’s like they have a completely different strain there.

I think they had a massive virus loading event there, at a funeral or something.

Unfortunately, the same sort of thing my have just happened in Carroll county last weekend, though they’re not say what kind of event it was.

11 people initially infected there.

I think Trump is going to take a gamble and open up far sooner than the Doctors want because of the economic destruction taking place

He will be right
Or Wrong

I dont know which.

And yes, the virus is waiting..and mutating.

It’s all in God’s hands

You should be able to consolidate your cash on line. Contact the bank that has the cash and inquire about their bank-to bank transfers.

In addition, I’ll mention that it is better to use a credit card for on-line purchases — you have more consumer protections than the debit card does. Just pay off the credit card and you won’t have any interest.

“Anyone remember when the president STOPPED referring to Covid-19 as a HOAX?”

I THINK it was about 2 days before he declared an Emergency.

Agreed.

This is a variation on “the plan”.

He is going to be stopping and starting several times, imho...

There will probably be some spectacular dying in public scenes...and then we will stop again....

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

They all use components made in China. Many of the small sized ones (under 10 cu. ft) are made by Haier (Chinese company) either under their brand name or a retailer's badge. So, new ones won't be available for awhile.

An alternative might be to find an older/broken model and get in rebuilt or repaired? That will be possible until the supply of spare parts dries up.

I knew there were 2 strains of the virus, however, I did not know that one was more infectious acting and deadly. If that is the case all of these places need to change their charts and track each strain separately to get better numbers to track these things.

We need to build special facilities that house just CoVid-19 patients, in various localities across the country, and house the 2 strains separately, as well. That would help to assure that other facilities would be available to tend to other illnesses. It would also ensure that the virus would not spread to patients with other ailments.

I still cannot determine why they would target Iran or Italy though. I thought Iran were like compatriots to the Chinese. Italy welcomes in the Chinese with open arms even though they have wrecked their specialty fabrics industries and put many Italians out of work due to the fact that the Chinese made products, still carrying made in Italy labels, are being produced at lower costs then sold at lower prices because of cheap Chinese labor by many Chinese who are in the country illegally.

I was very lucky to find a freezer a few weeks ago when my freezer died on me. I had just bought a ton of frozen food and almost lost it all.

There are 2 variants of this virus-S and L. L is more lethal. S is milder. S is the ancestor ie original new virus.

Possibly an explanation.

I don’t doubt it!

We’re praying that none of our (3) freezers go out, during this mess.

I told friends, a month ago, to get a freezer and put in their garage. They rolled their eyes at me.

I should tell them to just TRY to get one, NOW.

The lethality of the strains have been anecdotal. I’ve seen them dismissed by the TV doctors. But these guys are so ill prepared you can tell they are making up shit based on their experience.

I don’t make too many posts about the anecdotal stuff, because it can’t be proved. But keep your ears tuned to L-Covid.

Thank goodness.

I cannot even imagine if one of ours went out, right now :-(

My wife and I always look at each other and say, “Why not us?”

It sucks, but if you don’t fight, you don’t win. We have been fighting like monkeys.

So sorry to hear.

Hang in there...I know you are. Sounds like you have a great attitude.

Your wife is blessed.

Thank you for the ‘on the ground’ report.

Prayers.

And in addition to that, look for any reports on strains. I think it might be why N.Y. is a mess (From Iran) and the west coast is just sick.

But no one ever asks. I find that odd. If we are talking about it, you would think journalist would.
