***As of Friday, there were no cases of secondary transmission from recovered patients who had tested positive again, according to the KCDC.**** (comment: that’s good news)

That is good news.

Interesting factoid.

The mom/pop pizza joint in a nearby town didn’t have ‘curbside pickup’. If you ordered a pizza you had to park, get out of your car, go inside and wait. Once they started ‘curbside delivery’, they’re doing business hand over fist. We’re thinking of giving them a try this weekend. I’m betting they keep the ‘curbside delivery’ permanently now.

If their cells share a common AC system with the rest of the jail, I’d be very concerned if I were them.

Maybe a state update, with a US total, for each day?

Like from worldometers?

This would help track states going consecutively down, to follow/compare with the new phased guidelines.

Just a thought.

I appreciate your updates :-)

Trolls be darned.

It’s curious how some are being let out, others (these two) are not.

Thanks.

I’m worried about the restaurant owners....of the small, independent places/local, especially.

I heard on FoxBiz, this morning, that 1 in 5 restaurants won’t survive this shut down. Restaurants make up 4% of our GDP and (did) provide 11M jobs.

Honestly, life isn't that different for me. Still putting in 70 hour weeks in my home office. I've lost the option to get out of the house for a couple hours to go to dinner at a restaurant. Dinner is cooked and consumed in the kitchen while dodging 8 dogs. The Saturday trips to Idaho Falls have stopped. Purchases come from Amazon. No trips to the indoor range. Most days I get between 4 1/2 and 5 hours of sleep. I'm up at 6 AM and in the rack by 12:30 AM. I have a new Bluray movie purchased 3 weeks ago. Hoping to see it soon. After dusting the TV. It hasn't been on in a couple months. The stories of sitting around eating and binge watching TV are foreign to me.

I picked my wife up from work a 7 AM. She has to be back at 5 PM. A short sleep. The utility marking employee showed up to mark the gas/electric/water at 10 AM. Rang the door bell. 8 barking dogs. 12:45 PM, UPS shows up. Rang the door bell. She's not getting very good sleep today. 10 hour shift ahead starting at 5 PM.

That’s what I’m hoping...that the curbside lanes stay up and running, become permanent.

One of our local places tried that, but, still went under, last week :(

Our local pizza place is doing curbside, delivery AND selling ready to go pizza dough and flour by the pound.

They’re all trying to stay afloat.

We’re REALLY craving our local mexican food place. They have a drive-thru pick up tent set up. May try it this weekend.

CV19 has far too many effects on humans which are desirable in bioweapons for it to have evolved naturally or in the course of ordinary research. The latter develops a small number of new elements the researcher is trying to test, and tries to avoid any other unplanned new ones because those might hide the results the researcher is trying to test.

IMO CV19 more likely than not originated in a bioweapon lab (50%+ possibility) as an intentionally designed bioweapon and was released by accident before it was fully developed.

I never believed the natural mutation theory. Originally I thought ordinary research in a lab was as or more likely than a bioweapon, but so much information has recently appeared showing a great number of effects desirable in bioweapons that I changed my mind. IMO CV19 most likely was designed from the beginning as a bioweapon.

My personal belief is bioweapon development released before perfected by accident.

Although, maybe it was perfected.

Look at the devastation that has fallen down on us. I suspect many will have long term damage to their bodies. It has so many different symptoms it could hide for awhile.

Children make perfect carriers.

The thing that saved us was shutting down the school system and quarantining people until we could get a handle on all of it.

Things are picking up with the garden now - food (and weeds) are coming in.

I picked up a great tool this last week for the beds. B&D did it again. Pure genius and saves on some of the back breaking work.

BLACK+DECKER LGC120 20-Volt Lithium-Ion Cordless Garden Cultivator/Tiller

Shreds the weeds down to 4" in the raised beds and mixes well other soil additions.

Maybe some of those jobs will go to manufacturing.

A girl can hope...

Let’s say Trump knows they knew. And that it was an attempt at a bioweapon.

He had a very sharp reaction to that CBS twit who said China wasn’t paying a price.

Something like
“WHO SAID THEY AREN”T PAYING A PRICE”

A lot of this has to be handled behind the scenes.I am not sure any govt can come forward and say they know it is a bioweapon unless they are prepared for WWWIII

That is an interesting product.

I have to deal with that awful japanese honeysuckle. Hard to kill..hard to dig up. Shoots underground runners. Amazing invasive plant

That thing might help.

I think a LOT of groundwork has been and is being laid, behind the scenes, with this.

Heck....we knew and suspected as much, right here, when news first began breaking out.

No telling what traps have already been set, by POTUS, for the evil ChiComs.
