I’ll probably pick up a slew of nursery plants from the local nursery, some landscaping stuff from the landscaping guy, and tithe a portion to church. Probably order a few more trees online, just because. And replace my depleting TP stash.

That sounds great, BA.

Peter got the ultimate Trump smackdown.

It was glorious.

We saw it... fabulous!! :-)

Do you know why Sean Spicer was in the WH press pool today? I was really surprised to see him there, asking President Trump questions.

The good news for NYC based on those numbers is unlike other areas the deaths as as percent of patients tested positive for the virus is less than 1 percent.

Given that only peopke showing statisticd are tested that makes it likely less than 1% of their population is dying from the virus so far.

I recognize the virus spread problem and the rates being higher in other areas especially Italy.

I wonder the same. Catching up now. Have been searching for PPE & masks. First thing this morning during teleconference, the order went out from my wife’s hospital to search for any equipment that can be found locally. FUBAR.

I got a nectarine tree from Jungs last year.

Planted it in one of those largish cattle feed containers that’s about 25gal. Mainly because I’ve heard they can bloom early and this gives me the ability to move it in my garage if we have an unseasonable freeze/frost event.

It’s blooming this year. 10 blooms right now. Debating whether I should let it make a cpl 2 or 3 if it wants to or not.

But it’s BEAUTIFUL. Gorgeous blooms!

I want 2 more :)

Thanks. It just keeps getting worse. Today during morning phone conference the order went out to find as much PPE as possible.

They don't want any outpatient visits now. They are working the bugs out of the telemedicine process.

This may be a good thing. The time my wife spent on the phone with patients and refills will now be reimbursed. I guess there is an upside.

I was going to try telemedicine from a local group but wanted to ask a question about whether they would even cover talking about blood pressure medicine

Was on hold over a hour

I gave up.

They have to be swamped

I guess not.

Virus may be killing 1 to 7 percent of the people tested, but that is only 1 to 7 perceng of the people who were so sick they came in for testing, not 1 to 7 percent of the whole population.

So you and your loved ones dead may he an exaggeration.

Are we going to quarantine, jail the whole population for two years because a disease is going to kill less than 1 percent of the people sickened enough to go to the hospital?
