Have them change the “to” in “Typing to fast.” to “too” in this post while you’re at it. :)

I hope you have masks.

Masks are in short supply, so they're reserved for direct patient care. Other PPE (personal protective equipment; gowns, gloves, shoe covers, etc.) are being used as much as possible and not wasted.

Being a pharmacist, I don't have to go into the rooms (much). Alcohol based hand sanitizer is a must and I've washed my hands so much my skin is cracking at my fingertips.

Not a huge vitamin C believer, but I take 500mg/day, get 9 hours of sleep every night and eat good food (thanks to my wife).

What kind of work do you do there?

[NRx]

I probably have it. I suspect my mother does as well.

Be sure to tune in to CORONATHON 2020 !!!!

“It’s not a HOAX but it IS A PRETEXT!”

That may be, but proper actions still have to be taken.

It’s all a guess as to how strict to be. Give people some slack, no one can know exactly what the outcome of an action will be at this point.

What kind of work do you do there?

Inpatient and chemotherapy infusion pharmacist.

It’s ok as far as I am concerned.
The herd acts on what they have heard!

[SaxxonWoods]

Yeah, I was going to say, “If it was a hoax, medical staffs would be raising complete hell by now.”

Thanks for the input from the trenches and Godspeed.

[who knows what evil?]

The title is a bit misleading...virus itself isn’t a hoax, but the doctor states that he believes there is an agenda at work, and it’s an interesting theory.

[calenel]

Thanks. And thanks for your service.

“PRETEXT”

Does a pretext imply prior planning in modern vernacular?

[GLDNGUN]

Seriously?

[farming pharmer]

Thanks. And thanks for your service.

Thanks. Thirty years and I still like doing it, it's very satisfying work.

[Mercat]

I’m sorry about your friend. I would probably be cranky like you if somebody had asked such a seemingly stupid question. Mr. Mercat and I are blessed to live in a rural area in the middle of the country. I think there are four people in our state who have been reported as having the virus. God bless your friend and God bless you.

[foundedonpurpose]

Yes. In NW Georgia.

[cgbg]

In the USA, the percentage of critical cases (as a fraction of active cases) is .3%

Yeah, that’s point-3%.

That data point comes from this chart:

Thanks for making my day--lol!

It would be a interesting language to learn. Asking intelligent questions that create discussion... Is spam to you and your point of view.

Interesting!
