Coronavirus

Casper had a good answer above yours that covers it

My bad in missing Casp's answer! Yes, exactly what has to be done! I thought you were thinking in asking the question like they had to be moved someplace else!

 

[roguejuror]

no MrMonkey I don't have answers

and if I did had answers I would probably be wrong

and if I was wrong I won't sit here defending my ignorance

I just try to see all possible angles

Texas soft opening Friday.

Pretty damn sure Florida announces same thing tomorrow.

im not happy.

 

[Matty]

im not happy.

Why not?

 

[CASPERWAIT$]

Why not?

Honestly, I don’t have a lot of faith in my Florida patrons. I’ll be wearing a mask and using sanitizer, but still serving a couple of hundred people in a shift has me anxious a bit.

It will be the softest opening you've ever seen.

For example, parks. They are opening like 1/10th of the park. Like, the tennis court and the raquetball court. Everything else (except walkways) will still be closed. Beaches: closed.

CNN comparing 57K 70 year olds with pre-existing conditions dying to 57K 19 year olds in Vietnam is some shady ass journalism

Especially since those 19 yr olds that fought in Vietnam are now in their 70's

I’ve been hearing 25% capacity. We shall see

The soft opening was in full effect near my hood.

Drove to Wally World in the neighboring county, and restaurants/retail seemed to be bustling.

 

[reno cool]

Sweeet! They opened the restaurants?

The assholes here are still trying to figure out how take footballs from people, and stop them from driving more than 10 miles from home.
One news reporter found a taco shop that was open, went in undercover, and they served him

 

[roguejuror]

and now we return to our regular schedule programing

see you in the next pandemic guys

For those in the "I want to see how many deaths this year compared to normal" camp, those numbers actually suggest COVID deaths might be being undercounted, not overcounted.

U.S. Coronavirus Death Toll Is Far Higher Than Reported, C.D.C. Data Suggests (Published 2020)

In seven hard-hit states, total deaths are nearly 50 percent higher than normal, according to new C.D.C. statistics, suggesting that the virus has killed far more people than the number in official counts.

[reno cool]

that's something like what I was looking for.
...maybe. Seems odd to me that 11,000 dead in NYC in a month would be 325% of normal (should have about 15,000 average)

 

[Tron]

We should just keep the nationwide shelter-in-place in effect and shoot for a 10.5% annual rate dive in the 2Q of 2020. Then we'll REALLY be gamboling, boys!
