let’s all wait until midnight, wrap ourselves in protective tin foil, tip toe very quietly (to not awaken any viruses), and go graze on our neighbor’s lawns for our sustenance since she doesn’t want us to get any regular food to eat
You can only keep Americans penned up for so long. If this continues, it will not end well...
...and it won’t be due to any virus.
When the milk or other things I need run out I'll be going again no matter what this lady says. (when the powdered milk is restocked then I won't have to go for that again)
We have 4 cases in our Town and it's a tiny little cluster in a Town of 45,000 people.
Fauci is nuts....he knows a lot. Regardless, everything he promotes is still just his opinion. He doesn't care about the people....he cares about his "studies"....people are just numbers to him.
Cases are going up because the only people that are getting tested already have it. They are MAKING the numbers.
Hey, how about saying "this is the moment to not be going into the NYC subway system"
Between 8:10 AM EDT yesterday and 7:47 AM today, the number of worldwide cases jumped by 101,085, for a total of 1,131,713 cases. So far, fewer than a quarter of those infected have recovered, and the death rate has crept up to 5.29%. The number of cases is doubling roughly every 6-7 days.
There is nothing reassuring about this situation.
Agreed. This is why we see panic buying, because the next thing to close will be the grocery stores. Welcome to North Korea!
Oh sure think Dolly
Meanwhile...are NYers and NJites able to get their regular grocery deliveries?
I can’t believe what I’m reading from FReeper’s. The nature of the data changes daily, which can change process dramatically.
Seriously, I’ll be with you if the numbers don’t change over the next couple of weeks but I don’t think they’re lying...THIS is crunch time. Watch Sweden, France, Italy, ...UK, we don’t know what the value ranges are to the respective variables, until we do I agree with the recommendations.
I’m watching Sweden...they’re now the control group. The next two weeks will be extremely telling. Let’s not undo all the gains from the current lock down...I expect rates to flatten - great if they do, especially as we’re learning to treat this thing and detect whom is immune...but we don’t have the data yet!
Flame me if you want.
I go to the store about once a week. Unless you want to order, and pay for my meals, including delivery and tips Doc, you can go to hell.
I have had my doubts about this woman from the get-go. I think it has something to do with those scarves she wears every day. They just scream "Leftist know-it-all" to me.
Dear Doctor,
Please let us know when we can go to the grocery store. I understand that having to get food is probably not a good reason to go now.
Looks like these a-hole Docs are hitting THEIR peek in the curve. We will soon see other peeks decline also. The crisis and “crisis” will soon recede and phase 2 will come: ANOTHER investigation and ANOTHER impeachment.
I’m enjoying driving all around New York City with traffic that’s the equivalent of Louisville on New Years Day....it’s a once in a lifetime experience
Oh, that’s great. So, we’re destroying the economy and crapping on fundamental rights on the basis of your “hopes” and “beliefs”?!
Jesus these people are impossible. Don’t get food for the next month and don’t get your prescriptions...
They are acting like this is Ebola, rather than respiratory virus in which 85% of the folks deal with it with OTC meds if that.
Reality is the NYC metro corridore is not remotely what most of the country will see.. lower population density and far less dependence on public transportation etc. yet they want to treat rural Nebraska like it’s manhattan. Ridiculous.
Well, we have a lot of obese people whose weight places them at risk, so I guess this is one way to address that problem. Anyway, she did not mention liquor stores, did she?
