Coronavirus in NYC: Bill de Blasio considering a shelter-in-place edict

Mayor Bill de Blasio may soon order New Yorkers to only leave their homes for food, medicine and exercise — a major escalation of the Big Apple’s coronavirus containment plan.

De Blasio was asked on CNN Tuesday morning if he had any plans for a shelter-in-place edict similar to the one in San Francisco.

“We’re absolutely considering that,” de Blasio said. “We’re going to look at all other options, but it could get to that for sure for the whole country.”

De Blasio has been hesitant to enact more drastic measures to contain the outbreak, only shutting down schools and restaurants as pressure mounted Sunday– days after other cities already ordered those closures.

This happens when you elect people who don't understand numbers. Don't elect people who don't understand numbers.

Cuomo is on Fox now giving his daily, “we are effed” report. What is so bigoted is the Dems have criticized Trump for not turning it over to the doctors and scientists. Well, Cuomo will NOT give the mic up to anyone, he is the doctor, WHO, CDC.

That’s a darn good start. Better yet, don’t elect people who are communists.

It’s a disease with an infection rate of 17% under ideal conditions. That is what the worst of the Cruise Ships saw.
Of those that who did get it, half devolved no symptoms. This is what has destroyed the economy and made our lives miserable.

One of our talk show host’s phrase for the day is “How easy it was” which refers to the fact that we proles have acquiesced without question to the edicts of our so-called “leaders:” (none of which have any qualifications save for perhaps law and other marshmallow subjects) regarding the pandemic.

They have indeed learned how easy it was.
Thankfully, we have also learned how without spine they are.
For good cause, gun sales have gone up, and methinks it’s not to guard against fellow citizens.

If you are in a population center. I would be really worried.

Out here in the sticks around here, we got our firearms out.

Generally they are in the closet or someplace like that. Now they are within reaching distance.

I am talking about long guns. I have my twin pipe in the vehicle with me all the time now. Its loaded and ready.

And then Cuomo came out and said no city in New York will go on lock-down without State approval and the State has no plans to give approval. Such a shit show.
