Chebeague Island Transport, a private ferry service in Maine, has informed the islanders their insurance company says their policy will be canceled if they transport any suspected or emergency 911 patients. The island just has a small clinic. Casio Bay Lines mentioned in the quote below also services the island, but the trip is an hour as opposed to 10 minutes and 4 other islands are served on the same run.
“As you all know, Chebeague Transportation Company (CTC) has announced that they will not transport any suspected or emergency 911 COVID-19 patients. If you are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms, stay at home and call your medical provider for instructions. If you have to go to the mainland, you can travel on Casco Bay Lines

American dairy farmers dumping tens of thousands of gallons. Can’t they donate it?
Heard from a friend in Hong Kong, things are getting worse.
Friend at a major meat packing plant in CO reports 800 people called in sick this week.
Good times.
This has nothing to do with anything, but I bought a gallon of milk yesterday that had a few weeks until expiration, and it was sour already. Whatever that means.

People don't drink milk in quarantine? It seems like they'd drink more of it. Sure was scarce in the stores.
Hong Kong can't be too much of a surprise, talk about dense. They are packed in there. Even one case could turn into a problem in a hurry.
Sick or "sick"? I had this piece forwarded to me today, I'm not quite sure what I think. They see rumblings of a big moment in labor history, I'm not against that but it still doesn't seem like people are pissed enough to actually do something big. I guess we'll see. https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/z...general-strike

Maybe they're not pissed yet, but the suspension of labor elections by the Trump administration in light of the gig economy and eroding benefits during Corona might be enough to start.

Oh I agree, that's what I meant by "we'll see". It seems like conditions are really ripe for something to break out, to really change the status quo, but enough people have to get pissed enough. Maybe this'll do it.
But the shit people put up with now boggles my mind, so who knows?

I just don't see people being too stoked about losing their homes and families. Or going to work and dying, then families losing their homes. Or will a 100 million people end up dying, so nothing will come back to be the same. Are the 1% crowding into tha underground city in Missouri? Did Trump deliver the apocalypse?

I think the surplus of milk is due to no restaurant cheeses and creams.
Yeah some workers could be faking if that’s what that article says, have my hands full now.
Workers put up with a lot, but salt and coal mines of the 40’s can’t be much better.
