Those of us working from home who are not high risk should come back to work to not set a precedence of more people wanting to work from home. Check your temperature before coming to work (if possible). If you have temp of 100.4 or higher, stay home. Don't come back until 3 days after the fever breaks.
The celebrity "Imagine" montage went over like a fart in church. Doesn't help they can get tested on a whim as well.Sports and entertainment. Turns out it pretty beneficial to be wealthy and famous. Who knew?
That's just horribly stupid. If people can reasonably do their jobs from home, they should be home. Full stop.Got our ** Official ** COVID protocol at work today.

I heard some vets will take your pet in at the curb. If pet stores are closed which I doubt, chewy has a ton of stuff.Honest question: Pet stores/Vets open?
I'm thinking this is the tidbit @[icon] either was or was not being coy about. I'm thinking it's coming at some point this weekend. Even if it's not nationwide, Oregon's gov has been pretty proactive on shutting schools etc. I'm gonna have to finally pull the trigger on vodka stockpile.Anyone else hearing tomorrow is the day they shut everything down? It’s rumor that someone is spreading daily but someone w DOD ties related this one.l so was curious if anyone else is hearing it.....going to kill us at work with a closing.
Yeah, the actual list is very long of places that can stay open. And it’s confusing imo“The following are considered “life-sustaining” businesses and will stay open, according to WPXI in Pittsburgh:

They are allowed to be open here in the Bay Area during our Shelter in Place.Hardware stores should be added to the list of businesses.
Not unless I was specifically shopping for an older community member.So if a grocery store specifically tells you to come in during their special shopping hours for the “older community” and you aren’t above the age they are targeting, would you go shop then? Asking for a friend.
On the channel I usually watch, the co-anchors are in different rooms, so when the camera shows them together it is on a split screen. Also, they showed a reporter interviewing someone on the street, and he was standing about ten feet apart pointing the microphone which was attached to a long pole.Local news quite bizarre with the anchors sitting so far apart. Good thing we have widescreen tv now or they would have to go back to pan and scan.
That makes no sense at all. There's nowhere for people to go to have it spread that badly. The Chicken Little effect is out of control.CBS News
Governor Gavin Newsom says he projects more than half of Californians (25.5 million people) will be infected with the coronavirus over an 8-week period, in letter to President Trump.
Have been switching between CNN, CNBC, and local news for the past few days, and I've heard a whole lot of kids, dogs, and ringing cell phones as correspondents are calling/Zooming in remotely.On the channel I usually watch, the co-anchors are in different rooms, so when the camera shows them together it is on a split screen.

Interesting. You got TP gb?Wisconsin activated 300 National Guard

I remember him as the guy who still owes me 20 pounds.Prince Albert of Monaco became the first head of state to contract Covid-19 today. This info is 5-6 hours old so it’s probably been posted multiple times.
FBGs of a certain vintage will remember him as being on several bobsled teams, & IIRC he was their Olympic flag bearer as well.

Just FYI, Gov Cuomo addressed how he uses the National Guard and it seemed rather logical over "panic" some marker that things are getting really bad. Just relaying info as he had an impressive press conference today, a lot better than some of the other governors I heard speaking out today.Wisconsin activated 300 National Guard

You’re ridiculous. Ignored.No new domestic coronavirus cases in China per the NY Times
I thought the world was ending.
From their emergency fund?So when everything shuts down for 30 days (which needs to happen asap) how do you propose people buy groceries or pay any of their bills?
Go awayNo new domestic coronavirus cases in China per the NY Times
I thought the world was ending.
You have seen the number of people in this country that love paycheck tonoaychecky, yea?From their emergency fund?
I'm ridiculous because the country with patient zero and the world's largest population basically has it contained three months later?You’re ridiculous. Ignored.
I didn't realize this thread was exclusive to spreading paranoia and panic.Go away
For about a week or so.....Interesting. You got TP gb?
Yeah not panicking by any means. Though I could see a shut down coming over the weekend around here.Just FYI, Gov Cuomo addressed how he uses the National Guard and it seemed rather logical over "panic" some marker that things are getting really bad. Just relaying info as he had an impressive press conference today, a lot better than some of the other governors I heard speaking out today.
I know it's Wisconsin, just comparing
I still wouldn't. If everyone shopping for seniors did that then what's the point. Many are offering their services to strangers as well.Not unless I was specifically shopping for an older community member.
Odd way to deliver the message to the masses...Fire department just knocked on a family member's door to tell them to have enough food for 2 weeks because lockdown is coming in 48 to 72 hours. They were going door-to-door. This is in SoCal.
That does a good job explaining the ACE-2 connection with bp meds ACE inhibitors and ARBs. When those were mentioned earlier in the thread, the proposed effects of the drugs on C-19 didn’t make a lot of sense. While still convoluted, it seems both classes could be helpful in attenuating disease severity, at least in theory.I shared Derek Lowe’s blog last night, which I recommend for those interested keeping up with drugs in development for COVID-19.
Today he has new post on clinical trial data.

They separated families and had a draconian quarantine in place. How do you envision the US containment looking?I'm ridiculous because the country with patient zero and the world's largest population basically has it contained three months later?
Many celebrities have revealed why they're lucky to work on an industry where thoughts are given to them to repeat.Evangeline Lilly refuses to self quarantine saying she prefers freedom over her life. And her father lives with her. Did I mention he has stage 4 leukemia? What a tool.
Del Griffith our field reporter had a response.No new domestic coronavirus cases in China per the NY Times

This is one scenario where being a free country doesn’t work out as well.They separated families and had a draconian quarantine in place. How do you envision the US containment looking?
What county? I've mentioned what i do in this thread a couple times. I currently have four people that can't come into work, either because of direct contact with a positive or their significant other is under quarantine. Meanwhile, the county just reported their first case today.Friend in upstate NY just checked in. Spouse was notified yesterday morning that a coworker tested positive at their work site. Was fine most of the day yesterday, then last night around 10pm had a severe temperature spike to 101, dry coughing, and shortness of breath. By 2am no choice but the ER. Was told they're likely on "day 3" and that the worst comes at "day 10", and to check back then. Be prepared to be intubated. But they're not bad enough to be admitted, and they won't test until they are.
1 anecdotal data point.
This is the problem with people/media. Nobody questions the worst case scenarios, but any positive signs from the originating country must be lies/erroneous reporting.Del Griffith our field reporter had a response.
No clue. Simply a text from my sister. Her daughter got the knock on the door. Let me see if I can get specifics.No grocery stores will be open??
And then there’s Arnold who might be putting out the best content right nowMany celebrities have revealed why they're lucky to work on an industry where thoughts are given to them to repeat.
Not that I'm doubting you, but could you confirm that it was actually your family member that this happened to?Fire department just knocked on a family member's door to tell them to have enough food for 2 weeks because lockdown is coming in 48 to 72 hours.

Pretty sure we will hear that it's tomorrow, tomorrow.I've heard "tomorrow" is the day it's coming every day this week. In this thread.
