At this point the U.S. might as well just give up

It can’t be any worse than those awful little squares of tissue paper the high school I attended used to use.
You needed about a dozen of them to do any good.
ZERO new cases in China (10 new deaths)
Maryland shut down all of its public and private skrewels for 2 weeks (beginning this Monday, IIRC). I don’t agree with doing the entire state when our cases, so far, seem to be only in Central Maryland and Harford County, However, I understand what Hogan did in light of the fact that our testing, so far, is an inadequate abomination.
I’m just multiplying Maryland’s cases by 10 - Same as with China, just different reason.

So, for example, with my multiplier, New York has at least 6130 cases, not necessarily with the same geographic distribution as the official number.
https://www.texastribune.org/2020/03/14/texas-counties-coronavirus-case-updates-and-what-we-know/
As of March 14 at 7 p.m., there have been a total of 63 coronavirus cases in Texas.

Brazoria yes 2
Collin 5

It was amazing; I was at Wal-Mart. Big run on toilet paper, paper towels, sanitizers, food, some detergents, etc. However, the aisle with the pots and pans was still quite full.
At least I bought a wok some time after putting stir-fry vegetables in the freezer for preps.
Sounds exaggerated. I’m still going with 10 percent getting the severe pneumonia for USA.
Well those figures are way off. Dougherty County has 9 cases at their hospital.
Agree. The negative test is a positive, so we won't hear much media coverage about it.
The whole testing fuss by the media was a red herring anyway. If Trump tested too early, he was using (abusing) precious resources. If he didn't get the test, he was risking the lives and health of those around him. It was a no-win trap by the media.
Trump's negative COVID-19 test doesn't fit the Anti-Trump alarmist agenda. Crickets.
China has whatever numbers they want to have.
How long does raw hamburger, steak, etc. last in the freezer without vacuum sealing? I just have it in there in packages. Am planning to use it either during a quarantine or when this crap is over.
The 696 were the Diamond Princess minus 10 for some reason. The other cruise ship cases are counted differently for some reason. That part of the data is badly managed.

This is the scene at O’Hare airport. The traveler who took the photo said it’s a 6-hour wait for bags then on to customs for 2-4 more of waiting in shoulder-to-shoulder crowds. Police are handing out water and disinfectant wipes.

In Boot Camp, there are no doors on the commodes. Some things cannot be unseen, and I now live my life under the burden of knowing there is at least one guy on the planet who does.
A fair amount of apple juice and such comes from China these days, too. Some processed pork & chicken too, but I’ll bet that’s way down since their pig plague. There was a large pork shipment from China confiscated @ a US port last year:

Also note from that story: “ ‘The pork was smuggled in various different ways from ramen noodle bowls to Tide detergent containers,’ said deputy chief agricultural specialist Basil Liakakos.”
So Boron is NOT going to just let it sweep through the country, then?
Lol. No, an 18 wheeler delivered the free food.
Great attitude.
