What’s really very alarming to me is how many food suppliers are getting entangled with this virus.
Food chain interruption will not be good at all.
Agree. Watch the case rates, if "they" allow true statistics to be known, an increase in deaths will soon follow after an uptick in cases, barring a cure.
your totals may be in the ballpark while the states numbers have very significant up movements (in the “free” states) and down movements in the “slave” ;-) states.
True, in a steady-state system. Here, increase the cases and deaths will lag but follow, so eventually both will rise for every state, and the entire nation. I look for governments to start faking the numbers if they reflect negatively on those in power. Or, on the other hand, to keep Trump from winning a second term.
Yeah, case numbers are very fungible.
Deaths too, though not as much.
Tough decisions.
But we’ve got to live with this virus for another year and a half.
Indeed. It’d be nice to have 1-3 years of food on hand, even if it’s just the basics and vitamin pills to offset the lack of variety. Might be a great way to invest that stimulus check.
Another year and a half for a chance at a vaccine, but aren’t they still working on one for SARS?
I have.
Usually though, I forget to plant it out and it dies :(

So much money out there that I’m sure we’ll have the vaccine at the earliest possible safe moment.
Maybe sooner LOL!
I won’t take any vaccine at the first offering...
Heck, 2019 will be the first time I get the flu vsccine.
2019 should be 2020.

Thread on accidental release of virus.
I'm thinking preadministered drugs, vitamin cocktails, and other known treatments shown to be effective prior to introduction of a weakened, and less lethal strain of the virus.
Under the above circumstances, would you be willing to chance the above to gain immunity?
If there was evidence of safety and effiiccy
Which I wouldn’t expect in the first year.
Tough qusstion though.

Same in my case. Plus I would want to know about any aftereffects of having had the virus. If nothing serious, I’d do it - just to be done with it.
Never mind all that. Where is todays chart?
Should be looking good today.
Though US/NYC statistics are still messed up.
I swear, you’re almost as lazy as me.!
that was April 9, and here’s the numbers from the 23rd: 46,023

sewage tells the story for sure
do a search in your area. familiadental has a big network in several states and they say they’re taking patients but only emergency ones - pain more than 2 days.
I read an article earlier about Texas, and one county is using dentists for their drive-thru testing. Maybe your dentist, too? :)
