Golf Courses are pretty safe environments.
Hair salons would not be.

While I agree with Campbell on the golf courses, it made me think of my friend.

He is 75 years old, and he’s the equipment manager for two golf courses near me. He’s a Viet Nam vet, and he’s one of those guys whose identity is his job. He does nothing else other than work, eat, sleep, work.

If they sent him home, he’d be lost. He and his wife would probably fight all day long, because they need their time apart. I also imagine that if they sent him home for any length of time, he likely would not come back due to his advanced age.

I don’t know what the solution is, he’s a good man, and just thinking about his situation makes me sad.

Now days I would expect smart people are making the same transition by the millions.

Eyebrows raised, tossing off a phrase indicating you're one of the cool kids, smart people, sophisticated. Cash has the advantage of anonymity. Important when Bill Gates & Google are each attempting tracking at the individual level.

As I like to tell all my paranoid friends:

Everyone is trying to stop you from being paranoid.

One other note.

If you do a search on Google for grey_whiskers free republic you’ll find they already are tracking you at the most granular level.

And whatever you do, stay at least 100ft away from cell phones.

Not that it matters once they go 5g. Then they’ll just put a chip in your head.

Rumor has it they were not testing very much prior to postponing the Olympics, but the significance of the rising numbers is that they are testing more.

if you look at that hotspot map that i posted earlier today a huge red spot is Indiana. That probably primarily came from the super spreader from the biogen conference..which probably came from Italy.

West Coast patient 0 came from Wuhan. Perhaps he had a different strain than Italy.

Indiana makes no sense as a hotspot until you factor in Eli Lilly and that biogen conference

look at how tiny that press room really is..they should leave the front row empty

i wonder if trump is using his miracle drug as a preventative because he is so confident in it.

Those reporters should be tested as the cost of their employer
