The state of Montana now has four “presumptively positive” coronavirus cases, according to a release from the governor’s office.
The cases were confirmed by the state Department of Public Health and Human Services and still need to be confirmed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The cases are reported in Gallatin, Yellowstone, Silver Bow and Lewis and Clark counties. The patients are in their 40s and 50s. They will be quarantined in accordance with public health guidelines, and those who came into close contact with them will also be monitored.
Gov. Steve Bullock declared a state of emergency Thursday in anticipation of the disease coming to the state.
So far, 107 people have been tested for the disease in Montana.

The man needed a drink!
God bless you!!
Faith not fear
Prayer not panic
Thank you for posting. And Crossroads Church is located in....wait for it....Corona, CA. ((rimshot!))

My first thought is that you have to quarantine your groceries.
I often take them out of cardboard anyway due to worrying about brining in bugs...
Agree. Potato flakes are an easy way to make "just enough" mashed potato. My wife and I like the spam/mashed potato/jam arrangement. It will be eaten infrequently since she is an insulin dependent Type diabetic and salt packs pounds on me. There are many flavors of SPAM, so no reason to be bored with one option.
I’ll try to add beer on my next Kroger delivery order.
And by the way, you should see if you have Amazon Fresh on your account. It requires Prime membership.
But is really awesome and painless. All my vegetables and fruit and vitamins delivered at my door with no interaction with the delivery guy.
I love it.
I LOVE it!!!
No- there aren’t enough respirators but I expect production is ramping up. We have a little time before the pressure for them becomes intense.
I liked what I heard today- streaming and cutting bureaucracy is always a plus in my book. I pray the president gets some real sleep. He’s exhausted.
Wow. Ominous....
Amen....may our dear POTUS have a restful and good night, tnoght. Well deserved.
Do this every thread it seems...
But I have to.
The rate of discovery of cases is NOT equal to the rate of spread of the virus. It’s dependent mostly on how much testing is done.
The rate of spread of the virus is estimated at about doubling every week, not every two days.
That isn’t good news! It means there are already a large number of unfound cases.
The ‘doubling every 7 (or so) days applies to a larger number than the ‘doubling every 2 days’ does.
Hey Everybody,
Would like to urge all to keep your neighbors in mind. I’m taking a few days to make 40 quarts of Brunswick stew, to bag and freeze and as necessary leave on the doorsteps of quarantined acquaintances.
Please ,make a plan to help someone else. Can you call to check on shut-ins? Even do as the Italians are doing, sing out your windows with the neighbors. We can practice social distancing without social breakdown.
Love your neighbors; God is watching us.
Special delivery.
And I’m kinda proud of his ‘individualism’. Wrong though he may be.
Doing what he always does...
“There were only eight new cases in China yesterday.”
Anybody that actually believes anything out of China is a fool. They are lying, as they have been all along.

Yep. Viral Load. Plus probably age.
Did his duty. Served his people. Paid the price.
Sad to hear.
