Yup. Same here. Plus good neighbors who know how to work together.

Because for Covid19 you can be reinfected.

Recovered is recovered, not immune.

“it takes ~ 3 weeks for a container ship to cross from PRC to the west coast. What’s offloading tonight sailed three weeks ago. PRC started closing ports ~2 weeks ago.”

Based on 24 knots, and a distance 5634 nautical miles (to Los Angeles), it’s closer to 10 days...so we should be seeing the effects any day now.

damn skippy he was.

There’s a reason I drive 45 minutes downhill thru an 8 mile long mountain pass chokepoint to get to work on normal days - so that when the fecal matter impacts on the rotary oscillator, its a 35 mile walk uphill thru a defile for the grasshoppers for them to arrive in a county that’s #6 for per capita gun ownership in the U.S.

Doesn’t seem to be having much of an impact in Singapore. Clusters are spreading though the temps are in the 80s.

Three for grocery stores. Not sure about retail or warehouse supply places. Probably a week in factories.

I figure 18 hours for staples in grocery stores once the panic hits.

I stuck my phone in the washing machine by accident on Wednesday. On Thursday I went to replace it.

Went to my provider. “Do you have the Samsung?” “No.” This went on for a while.

“How about just replacing this not very popular model phone I had before?” “We have one left. Want it?” “Yes, and why are you out of phones?”

“China.”

It’s already impacting the supply chain.

I only showing China mortality rates pre Corona.

Surprisingly, the US mortality rate is 863.8 per 100k per year.

I think the numbers, especially from Hubei, are meaningless, except I suppose as a floor.

If we were dealing with what they are over here, we wouldn’t have meaningful numbers, either.

18 hours is only if the buses are not running.

““How about just replacing this not very popular model phone I had before?” “We have one left. Want it?” “Yes, and why are you out of phones?””

I was able to obtain mine earlier last week...thank goodness.

It’s possible that they ship these by airplanes, due to their high value density. And that would explain the already-occurring shortages.

....Current weather in Singapore: 82 degrees F...

82 degrees isn't that hot for normal summer temperatures.

The syndrome itself can be suppressed with anti inflammatory drugs.

A cytokine storm is not resolved with anti-inflammatories. You're pulling that one out all the way to the elbow.
