“7-Eleven says it may hire 20,000 to meet coronavirus demands on its stores nationally”

That’s to replace the sick ones, no doubt about it.

FedEx Fiekd in Maryland.

FRIDAY: Members of the guard pitched tents in Prince George’s County, where WTOP reports health officials from Prince George’s County and Maryland are hoping to create a closed testing site for the new coronavirus at FedEx Field in Landover. Guardsmen from the Maryland Army National Guard’s 224th Medical Company Area Support, which is headquartered in Olney, set up a tent in Silver Spring, where officials said up to 30 medical soldiers would be able to support hospital workers in an emergency triage situation. Members of the National Guard were called to Baltimore City to help serve vulnerable populations, according to the mayor, who said their role was to help with food distribution to children and medical logistics planning.

Isn’t that normally a leftist view when their version of economics doesn’t quite work?

They don't even know they are leftist. Imagine these people WROL.

There is better material. Just not fiberglass filters. The furnace filters are still available on Amazon. Canadian Prepper has been very prescient. From February 15:

Prepare NOW: What to Do When Masks Run Out!

Sewn between layers of fabric is best in my opinion. Also can be sterilized at 65C for 15 minutes.

Yeah, the working-age Chinese spread, and the old Italians die.
Anyway, such facts are not germane to the source of the virus.

Now, could a Wuhan worker originally have brought the virus to Wuhan from Italy? And it grew in Wuhan’s lush virus environment before it spread to the world?
Maybe, but unlikely.

Some are anarchists.

There’s at least one that basically says “who cares how many old geezers die you’re all communists destroying the country and the economy over the flu”. Maybe a fascist? I don’t know.

Some seem to be Pandas.

Hard to say.

Daily update of projected confirmed cases:

Number of confirmed cases by 11:59 pm tomorrow, 3/22/20: 35,663
Daily rate of increase in confirmed cases: 31.8%
Weekly rate of increate in confirmed cases: 689.9%
Days to doubling of confirmed cases: 2.51
Date to pass China in officially confirmed cases: 3/25/20 (of course, China's numbers are bogus, but it does serve as a kind of benchmark, given that we know it's at least as bad as they've admitted.
Date to reach 100,000 cases: 3/26/20
Date to reach 1,000,000 cases: 4/3/20

Numbers are based on the reported confirmed cases by Johns Hopkins and World-o-Meters.

These daily projections (not predictions) have typically been low by 10% to 40%.

There is a bright side. Maybe some of Limppimp's cult will read the answers here and begin taking care of themselves.

The rest will continue on with the purple Kool-Aid cocktails.

Andrew Cuomo has committed a crime against the people of NYC, NY and the rest of America. He was 10 days late the the poster child for the flubros.

A top New York surgeon warns that the coronavirus has ‘breached’ hospital walls and infections could peak in 22 to 32 days

Cuomo is going to be sanctified for passing the blame to Trump... and the cost of fighting NY’s cases to the rest of the country.
No one will care about the deaths at his feet.
