Dr. Deborah Birx said Saturday that Americans should especially focus on social distancing guidelines in the next two weeks to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.
This is the moment to not be going to the grocery store, not going to the pharmacy, but doing everything you can to keep your family and your friends safe, she said.
Birx noted that Pennsylvania, Colorado, and the Washington, DC, metro area were starting to have an increasing number of cases.
Were hoping and believing that if people mitigate strongly, the work that they did over the last two weeks will blunt that curve, she said.
She pointed to really bad hotspots in New Jersey and New York, where cases of the virus and deaths were still going up.
The next two weeks are extraordinarily important, she said.
Dr. Anthony Fauci also said three or four hotspots were continuing to rise, but that certain areas could flatten the curve by social distancing.
Just make sure everybody does the at least minimal amount of that physical separation, because the virus has no place to go if youre physically separating, Fauci said.

I’ve always kept eggs in my fridge past the “use by date” and haven’t been poisoned yet. When I was little, back then the egg coloring kits consisted of colored tablets you had to put into boiling water, with vinegar. At least that’s the way my mother did it. She’d hard boil the eggs beforehand, then set out enough coffee cups for all the colors, and us kids would color our allotted number of eggs any way we wanted to. The eggs would sit out for weeks in a big bowl on the dining room table so we could help ourselves. Nobody got sick and died.
My mother used to make bread at home all the time. What a wonderful smell!! Years later, after she'd passed, I found an old recipe with photo directions...it must be from the 40's or 50's, and made bread for myself. The hardest part is the kneading, but it's well worth the time. I haven't had any problem finding bread around here. There's a small Italian bakery down the street from me, and they make wonderful bread and pastries.
Not this mature, elderly woman. I had to wear scarves all the time when I was younger, not just the ones you tied under your chin, but the winter wrap around ones to walk the mile to school in. I'd kill myself first before ever having to wear one again.
Remove it from the bread machine, brush some butter or margarine over the top with a pastry brush. Or you can rub a partial stick over the top, and cover over with a cloth. This makes a soft crust.
Yes, we pretty much are.
Are you?
;-)
LOL!
bkmk
I can crochet but prefer to sew nowadays. I’m not good at it but I can make quilts and other stuff for the house or throw a summer dress together-only really basic stuff and mending.
I started leaving it in the pan just long enough so it cools but doesn’t get soggy, then I put it in a paper bag so it can breathe and I wrap that in plastic bag so it doesn’t dry out. It stays soft for almost a week now.
LOL...no, I, fortunately, don't consider beer an essential item...LOL
That’s a great idea too!! Thanks.
Someone tell Dr Cankles to stifle herself.

We used food coloring.
It works way better than the Paas dyes.
I always buttered my bread.
What I did was very generously butter the loaf pans, then I would shape the loaf, put it in the pan, pat it down well, then flip the dough over so the buttered side was now up.
I never thought that might be why the crust came out good instead of thick and hard.
I used to make clothes for the kids when they were little but now I like to make quilts.
Some of what I made some quilts out of is scraps of fabric that I used for their clothes long ago.
Au contraire. I’m locked in a narrow weight range and have been trying to break out of it. A neighbor lost 30 lbs in one month by eliminating carbs. After seeing your comments, I discussed changing my diet with my wife. I’m going to try. Thanks for your motivation.
Looks great.
Thank you!
