I can tell you what's going to happen if some inconsiderate SOB puts me in the hospital with coronavirus. He better hope I don't make it out.

Then stay home and cocoon yourself you GD fool. We don't do want see your sorry a$$ in public anyway.

Yes capitalism is a confidence game of a better future and sustainability. The confidence was blown which was the Democrats first goal from the get go.

As of yesterday, here in Ohio we have 1 death in the 0-49 yr old age category.. The other 100 feathers were 50 and older. And only 7 of those were aged 50-59..
Bottom line is keep the 60 and older home and reopen the state. This is beyond ridiculous and I suspect this virus isn’t the reason for the shut down.
Why are all government employees getting full pay plus the corona check for 1200 and 500 per kid? They are on more of a paid vacation than anything and then get bonus corona bucks to boot? It doesn’t even make sense..

Perhaps we should do is follow the South Korean example.

What they were doing at first seemed to be working really well. But, even South Korea's numbers are starting to climb again.

[alaskamomma]

who made you the judge and jury of all mankind. You should be denied all your rights for posting that unkind garbage towards your fellow country men and women. For starters they need to confiscate your computer.

If greedy self centered people want to risk their lives fine but they get zero access thus they cannot take resources away from someone who did not be a selfish a$$hole.

Exactly. I've always said that what we should do is just quarantine those who are the most vulnerable, and send the young and healthy back to work. But, it might scare you to find out just how much of the population meets the definition of "vulnerable." And, if some inconsiderate jack-ass goes around infecting people, prosecute him just like we do AIDS carriers who knowingly go around infecting other people.

Well, you poor, money-grubbing jack-ass, does that mean I can keep all my money at home too? Surely you won't need any of that LOL!

Like a lagging indicator, these kinds of opinion pieces are simply mirroring existing trends and emerging reality. In other words, Trump is going to give the go signal within a week, perhaps something as symbolic as this Easter Sunday.

Will it be because of the growing chorus of wailing cries demanding social freedom and economic liberty? Perhaps, but the main reason will be simpler: there's no there, there.

Here's what it looks like graphically. We are currently tracking Italy by 8 days (from dates of first CV deaths). In order to match the scary IHME model estimates, we'd have to go back and track Italy by 18 days. Yeah, those days where they were experiencing high double digit growth in fatalities and were sort of out of control.

It's done; time to move on. We have massive capacity coming quickly on line in terms of facilities, staffing, equipment, supplies, as well as expanding clinical knowledge, to directly attack/control the virus. If any hotspots were to (re)emerge, we now have the ability to focus & direct resources towards any specific cities/regions.

Get your masks ready, boys & girls, and get ready to rumble.

some places aren’t doing that anymore.🙄

Bkmrk

[PLOM...NOT!]

I agree with you. Our own little Hitler wannabe posting on Free Republic. How lovely.

[crusty old prospector]

As an attorney, you either need grammar lessons or to stay off of the bottle when you post.

[Cap Huff]

I don’t know whether you caught it or not, but I believe Birx indicated in yesterday’s press conference that we are about 12 days behind Italy on the curve. Your figure of 8 has been a good calculation, but I wonder whether you might consider moving your estimates in that direction.

As I gather, that would mean that the figures would worsen (not as much as 18 as you mentioned yesterday) but might be more in line with the actual decision making figures used by the administration.

Thanks for your insight on these threads.

Note to Wayne Root:

I live in N NEVADA.

There has been absolute silence here in the Reno market about such a business owner laying off his people & committing suicide.

I am not saying it didn’t happen, but if it is such a huge problem as you seem to think it is, why isn’t it being spiken about 450 miles north in the same state?

Are you equally angry about our Democrat Governor BANNING Nevada doctors from using the chloroquine drugs to treat those tested as positive in Nevada?

Then-—re you even more incensed about the fact that Sisolak has had his “Dept of Correction’ PURCHASING MASSIVE quantities of the drug?

FOR PRISONERS???

There are around 3 million residents of Nevada. EXACTLY how many prisoners are there in Nevada?

WHY is MY tax money being used to buy massive quantities for PRISONERS & the same Governor is BANNING state medical persons from doing their job to the best of their ability & prescribing that drug for COVID 19 patients???

I am pretty sure that I pay more in taxes to support the state than ANY prisoner.

Where is YOUR outrage over Sisolak’s actions??? Plenty of us here in N Nevada re plenty outraged at Sissypants.

Some of the more ardent flubro's are destined to die from sucking chest wounds because they are too stupid to live. Many of them don't have the good sense God gave a goat.

[central_va]

Steve,

If you remain isolated like the scared wet cornered rat you appear to be then how pray tell will a flu bro infect your sorry fetid a$$?

Signed,

Curious.

[AppyPappy]

Man yells at cloud.
South Korea has the same fatality rate as Texas

[Georgia Girl 2]

Agree. This whole thing is insane. One of my husband’s old side kicks put up a thread on his FB page asking people all over the country to go take a video of their local hospital. Then he started posting all these videos of basically empty hospitals that were coming in. Now OAN news is doing a story on him and taking their own videos. Folks there is no epidemic going on that warrants this level of lockdown.

[Sicon]

You sound like one of the spoiled flubro brats for people like you I would take great pleasure in locking you up with the entire weight of the federal government behind me and my troopers some times people need to be taught obedience the hard way.

So, you’re a democrat then. You’re also a wannabe tyrant.

[ridesthemiles]

We had 260 employees. We terminated, laid-off, and furloughed half of them. The rest got pay cuts and hours cuts. The family (owners) are only looking out for themselves and the remaining employees are doing the very least possible without getting noticed.”””

Can YOU think a minute ahead of yourself?

IF that family business is going to reopen again-—it must have the funds to do so.

Depleting itself into complete bankruptcy to pay employees a few days longer will only achieve a final conclusion that means there will be NO job to come back to for all 260 employees.

You didn’t indicate what kind of business it is—what it produces, etc. IF it is as large as 260 employees, that is a good record for a ‘family business’.

Trump signed the bill that gives laid off employees on UNEMPLOYMENT an EXTRA $600 on top of their unemployment. With RARE cases, I would bet that is more unemployment money than your normal net paycheck. So- STAY at home—no commuting costs—no daily lunches out—and no wear & tear on your vehicle....and the possibility of a higher payment than a normal layoff situation. WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM???

I do realize that the Unemployment offices are swamped, but what if your job location had burned down completely? How long would it take to actually rebuild that business & YOUR job???

ALL of us are having to adjust.

Many persons have never developed the attitude of at least SOME level of being prepared with supplies on hand-—but they sure can flock to the store & replace their perfectly good cell phones with the ‘latest & greatest’ cell phones at an even higher cost. How many supplies to have on hand could that new cell phone purchase have provided???

I find it hard to have much sympathy for those who literally live moment to moment & then find themselves in a bind when a Country like China does this TO THE WHOLE WORLD!!!

Maybe you should use some of this time off to review your own household budget & locate the spending you are wasting.
