Don't tell me. Rachel Maddow, right?

Tough news, that’s a hell of a spike at 50.
Haven’t seen anything mention critical care rate till that.
Lots of med bills and misery there.

No, some guest. Not sure who. I just watched "Delirious" for the first time in like 30 years and the TV was tuned to MSNBC so it came on when I switched away from netflix.

Just want to say this is bullshit. The backend processing post PCR is where the virus is detected. The detection is pathogen specific and is highly selective to the pathogen in question. Source, I build PCR based biomolecular test kits for a living, and we are running RP panels with covid19 reagent in it.

Thanks for clarifying. I saw that and didn't believe the conspiracy part but thought there was merit about the numbers quoted and the actual ratios of people being infected is kind of guesswork unless everyone gets tested. I was curious if people that have recovered that were never tested will show positive for the virus. I was sick with a low grade fever in late February in the Seattle suburbs and could have possibly had it. I self quarantined for 3 weeks and feel better now but I don't want to risk anyone else if indeed I did get it.

To be fair, in the right context, any global pandemic could be compared (and contrasted) to the Black Plague.

Schools are never opening again. My Mexican joint closes tonight. Has no idea if he will reopen. He was struggling even now.

This is insane!!

Haven't been to Norway, but have been in just about all the rest of Europe, and China too. Their infrastructure makes USA infrastructure look like 1970's era technology. And I could go for some roundabout tunnels here in Bend. That would be pretty cool.

Tourists have enough trouble with surface roundabouts here. When ODOT installed the one @ west end of Sisters, we sat at the DQ and marveled at the clusterfuck for days. The guy jacknifing a 40' travel trailer trying to back up was the pinnacle of fuckery - he had the road blocked for like 30 minutes.

What will you do on day six?

my guess would be stay sober enough to drive back to the udabc store

jfc, I just told you a story that I knew would contradict myself. You obviously don't know any paramedics or firefighters. I do. And shit is way gnarlier in the field than you would ever know about.

Hey asshole. You lost all credibility when you posted that state of mind trumps science. I’m a senior chief in a large metro fire department. I’ve posted multiple posts on what our people are dealing with. STFU. Please.

Thank you for sharing your perspective of things. And all the other lifesaving stuff too.

How the FUCK is it that there are RNs reusing their fuckign N95s shift after shift while fucking people walking around the community they all have N95s

Fuck the hoarders.

I have friends who are sick after exposure and it BREAKS my heart. And more will get sick beause they don't have PPE. Not at my hospital. Not yet. I set us up to be safe. But my friends at other hospitals.

I can't think anymore I'm going to collapse

[powdork]

NV restaurants casinos, essential businesses order to close at noon tomorrow for at least one month

Just got word that our company will pay us in full including tips averaged over the last 8 weeks. That's a load off at least

[Ted Striker]

Shit summit. Hang in there man.

You're a moron, this isn't going to be just a few weeks.

One seat for Ripz, and one for BG. Perfect.
