I didn’t see where she was at the Women’s March in Madrid on March 8, but she had many leaders of her party there:

This is almost Monty Python stuff—in the twitter comments section they note that a paramedic did visit her house, examined her, and told her all was well!

IOW, 1/11th of a quarter teaspoon per gallon of water for regular household bleach. I’ll never have to buy household bleach again.

Thank you, Steve. I am in senior living, Minnetonka, and the building has been totally shut down. All activities canceled, we are supposed to stay in our units, keep 6 feet apart, and no visitors permitted.

Not fun.

They can’t do it now, as I’ve posted many times before, because the health workers take them to work, along with many other essential workers. The subways are empty. Blasio did say Don’t ride the subway, and a lot of people listened.

Notice that there are more cases in the boro of Queens than there are in Manhattan. Queens people had a long, crowded subway ride to get to work before the trains got empty. Their residential density is nowhere near that of New York except on the subway cars.

I suspect that the exodus of wealthier NYC residents will contribute to some extent to nationwide spread.

Maybe the Ministry of Silly Walks is now in charge of the NHS.

We’re not currently affected either, so far. We’ll see again this June.

We’ll tithe part of ours and spend some at local small businesses.

On Dr. Campbell’s YouTube today he said:

It took 167 days from the first confirmed case in Wuhan for the world to hit 100,000 cases total.

It took 11 days to hit 200,000.

It took 4 days to hit 300,000

We are at 460,000 right now.

287 cases with 25 in hospitals. Yet, the governor just issued a version of shelter in place.

I don’t know the bleach concentration that you’re beginning with, so can’t say whether you mix is correct. Please just double check.

Yes it all last a long time.
Store in cool dark place.
Secure cap tightly.
One opened it begins to weaken, however a new one gallon jug will last quite a while

Personally...and this is just me personally...I’m mixing at 100ppm for a disinfectant (surfaces, Amazon boxes) and using a dedicated new one gallon pump sprayer.

In the kitchen, I mix in a one quart mason jar and add one drop of dish soap. This goes in my trigger spray bottle (must buy and chemical resistant bottle or the bleach eats up the seals, or simply refill the one quart Lysol spray bottle after rinsing it thoroughly).

First Doctor: Get on parade! Come on! We haven't got all day, have we? Come on, come on, come on. (the patients painfully get themselves into line) Hurry up ... right! Now, I know some hospitals where you get the patients lying around in bed. Sleeping, resting, recuperating, convalescing. Well, that's not the way we do things here, right! No, you won't be loafing about in bed wasting the doctors' time. You - you horrible little cripple. What's the matter with you?

1st Patient: Fractured tibia, sergeant.

First Doctor: 'Fractured tibia, sergeant'? 'Fractured tibia, sergeant'? Ooh. Proper little mummy's boy, aren't we? Well, I'll tell you something, my fine friend, if you fracture a tibia here you keep quiet about it! Look at him! (looks more closely) He's broken both his arms and he don't go shouting about it, do he? No! 'Cos he's a man - he's a woman, you see, so don't come that broken tibia talk with me. Get on at the double. One, two, three, pick that crutch up, pick that crutch right up.

Far Rockaway is hardly densely populated.

The high Queens numbers are because of all the people who don’t need to live in a “cool” place but need to get to work on the subway.

I bought extra tea just because we drink it. And a lot of it comes from China...
