Maybe it was just propaganda by the Chinese government to get their residents to realize how serious it was and how much the government was doing to try to correct and eliminate the problem. Who knows . . . maybe they did that as a photo op and never hosed down anything else beyond that one time.
Maybe it was just steam they were spraying around. We'll never know, but, it showed an "effort".
@KeerockIf it helps, Dallas county is shelter at home starting today. First place in TX I believe. https://www.texastribune.org/2020/03/22/dallas-county-coronavirus-prompts-officials-issue-shelter-place-order/
Completely cancelled? They aren't moving to any sort of online environment to finish the year?
Crystal ball? We are about 3-5 weeks behind where we should be. That doesnt require a crystal ball.
Technically the state school board has not voted on it yet. They will do so Wednesday. Our state superintendent is recommending school closures for the year. There will be online learning.
I can tell you the exact day I started with symptoms, Jan 27. I went for a long run and had 2 severe bear attacks (GI distress
). While 1 attack can happen time to time, never 2. From that day forward I was wasted. Whats funny is that I used to be "pretty sure" I had it, but now that the symptoms about no taste/smell are coming out that was me times a million. I also had a low grade fever (~100) and a wicked sore throat. I eventually went to urgent care because I couldnt speak and was tested for strep (returned negative) because of the sore throat. I was never tested for the flu, but with my symptoms no one thought it was. I was out of work a full week. It took me about 2 weeks to get back to full speed.
I can't see how Florida isn't exploding right now. You're telling me Spring Breakers didn't stop by the retirement community to see Nana on their way home from Spring Break? Just a bad situation, demographically, regardless.
I had a respiratory illness with most of the classic C19 symptoms except high fever and body aches from mid December through early January.
rumor is some type of online learning. Very poor state outside of Tulsa and Oklahoma City. Many people do not have internet per report so we will see.
Desantis: Huge amount of New Yorkers flying to Florida
A lot of the students here Spring Break elsewhere. A lot of the out of state students aren't getting tested. And yes, I'm telling you the spring breakers don't stop by the retirement community to see Nana. They're just trying to stagger back to the airport. But I do expect Florida to get bad.
Not really though. Think about it, we need food, right? So just the grocery stores?
This is pretty indicative of how the US leadership seems to be handling things. Wait, wait, act on it when it is too late. How many land, get off the planes, move out into FL to potentially spread the virus while the leaders there are "looking at how to address those flights"?
I know. My brother lives on Sanibel. My folks are in Ft Myers.
Where is the airline industry on this? It took only two days after 9/11 to resume air transport as they beefed up security checks, disallowed items like boxcutters, etc. People working in airports should be in Tyvek suits with full on respirators if necessary. Temp scan passengers and make them wear protective gear. Where is American ingenuity to make a tough situation workable and safer?
That’s the thing. Nothing is really enforceable. People are essentially on the honor system. And if people were doing it in the first place, they wouldn’t need an order.
That is not a travel ban - that is self -isolate for 14 days....... unfortunately, good luck enforcing that. What they need to do is suspend all flights in and out of the NY/NJ area
Not unconstitutional and Hawaii is also doing the same thing starting Thursday.
Want me to drive over and paper towel their golf course (TP is out of stock)?I know. My brother lives on Sanibel. My folks are in Ft Myers.
My folks have been lying to us about staying in. Found out they went to the clubhouse to eat dinner at their stupid little golf course they live on. Apparently they asked the waitress if the menus are sanitized between each patron. She responded that is wasn't feasible to do (which in itself is ridiculous, for of course you can wipe down each menu after someone handles it). But they proceeded to eat their anyway. Their golf community is still keeping on like nothing is going on. Dudes play poker. Everyone is out hitting golf balls. They all eat at one of the two restaurants. They have ####### karaoke at the pool still.
Shut it down governor. Save people from their ignorance and arrogance
