Fire/EMS update #2-
Our crews are continuing to respond to an increase in Covid19 patients. For now, the majority of them are symptomatic, but not confirmed positive. We had to restructure our response configurations to lessen the numbers of our members that respond to these calls (i.e 2 instead of 4), to both halve the exposure rate and lessen the burn rate of PPE. Which, BTW, is something that is going to become a HUGE issue in the very near future, as we were told on Friday by one of our vendors that there is no hand sanitizer available nationwide. As I said earlier, please do NOT call 911 or self-report to the ED with flu-like symptoms. Stay at home and self-monitor. If you or a loved one are experiencing symptoms of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (shortness of breath, cyanosis, tightness in the chest), then activate 911.
We are currently staging with law enforcement at certain big box stores, as there has been an uptick in brawls over supplies. Unbelievable.
If at all possible, please, stay at home. If you have to go out, the one thing I would have with me is a pair of nitrile gloves. I am way more concerned about picking this up from contaminated surfaces. Avoid crowded areas. Six feet spacing. Or, stay the fuck home. And for the BGnights of the world, you are 100% contributing to the severity of this pandemic, and should be fucking ashamed of yourself.
As far as big picture stuff, Powder Goat's friend may be on to something. I sat thru a briefing on Friday and left feeling like two things are coming down in the next week: Some sort of interstate travel ban, and a nationwide shutdown of "non-essential" businesses. So yeah, martial law (or close to it), in our lifetimes. Incredible.
Finally, if any of you know a first responder or a healthcare worker, send them air hugs and vibes. We are stressing TF out over our communities, loved ones, and ourselves. I will keep you all updated. Stay safe. Stay home.What we have here is an intelligence failure. You may be familiar with staring directly at that when shaving. .

I know... I’m just throwing out anything remotely relevant I’ve heard. Things I’m reading in the news are like 12 hours behind what I’m hearing from a doctor in-law. Not like I’m hearing super top secret shit, just that DIL seems to be a few hours ahead of everyone else and what THEY know.

You think of lot of New Yorkers visited Italy for the holidays and vice versa?
New York City has the largest population of Italian Americans in the United States of America as well as North America, many of whom inhabit ethnic enclaves in Brooklyn, the Bronx, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island. New York City is home to the third largest Italian population outside of Italy, behind Sao Paulo, Brazil and Buenos Aires, Argentina, respectively.

Btw, what kind of laws are there regarding stock markets?
Thinking if western world goes into a lockdown the markets might get edgy..
So, under martial law (in states), is there what kind of legislative tools to close the exchange for XX amount of days?
The floggings will continue until morale improves.

Sobering realities. Thanks, Seano.
Of all the motherfuckers to call Martial Law, it's Trump.
Part of me doubts we'll ever see democracy again.
