EAST HAMPTON, NY—In an effort to rapidly meet the needs of those most affected by the coronavirus pandemic, New York officials announced Tuesday that they were quickly building thousands of emergency Hamptons mansions to shelter wealthy residents. “We allocated hundreds of million dollars in state funding and dispatched emergency crews to begin construction on thousands of estates, country houses, and other large abodes along the Long Island shore to ensure that each and every wealthy New Yorker can ride out the pandemic in safety and comfort,” said New York governor Andrew Cuomo, adding that the state hoped to have the first round of 40-room mansions fully constructed and outfitted with all the latest appliances and tech features by the end of the week, although he did stress that some of the wealthy might have to make do with temporary townhouses. “Please bear with us while we finish these sorely needed seventh bedrooms, indoor saunas, and infinity pools. I’ve also issued an executive order to divert food supplies to the Hamptons so that residents will have enough to serve all their guests at their weekend parties. The state has also requested emergency supplies of oak and granite to finish all the flooring and countertops before the wealthy arrive in their private chartered cars. If necessary, we are prepared to invoke emergency powers to finish all of the tennis courts and wine cellars. In this time of crisis, we must do everything we can to ensure that all wealthy New Yorkers have access to the basic luxuries they need.” At press time, MSNBC pundits were praising Cuomo’s handling of the crisis, commenting that his drive to help the wealthy no matter what it cost made him seem very presidential.

Did Cadet Bonespurs just say we had very little ammunition in our stockpile ? Asking for a 'friend'.

The man told the truth only after his wife also began showing symptoms. UR Medicine said Monday it will begin taking the temperature of visitors to its hospitals' maternity units.

Frankly my dear, I don’t care if you get it.
I mean that in the nicest possible way.
Because you might possibly be ok.
I care if you pass it to a healthcare worker, or someone high risk, or your buddy, who then passes it to a healthcare worker, or someone high risk.
But tell me whether that was a troll or not, what about either of those articles was so scary and foreign to you?

By then your poor doctor will likely have covid and they can just spit shine the camera before the procedure.
In all seriousness though - real vibes to those with friends and families on ventilators - if those friends would want you to then consider sharing that news far and wide in your circles - this beast is taking out middle aged otherwise healthy people along with the elderly and chronically ill - the longer the health care system has to sort out treatment protocols the better the chances will be for those who get a bad case of this in April or May - handwashing, masks, and social distancing are key to that.
I say this knowing that if my Dad gets this (who's on the other side of the country) I will never get to see him alive again. Stay healthy maggots.

You didn't actually want to keep masks in the US did you?

“Most of the masks are leaving the country,” he told me.
Another failure of leadership. Train wreck.

Like the person above me that posted they would rather lick door knobs then live like that....it is something I am not willing to go through. Leave my groceries outside or in my garage for three days? How would that work in the summer?
