maladatWhen will the coronavirus arrive in the US? (Disease: COVID-19; Virus: SARS-CoV-2)
I didn't get that far into the 1point3acres site earlier, I'll look into it, thanks.
Edit: Now I remember, I could only find US and Canada data on the 1point3acres site (I may have just missed where to find other data). The worldometers site has data by country for every country with confirmed cases.

Il CattivoYou know things are bad when Amazon starts cracking down on its own "resellers".
http://www.yahoo.com/news/17-7...tizer-155735689.htmlYeah, I know, free market and all. But when some SOB goes anal and drives around buying up all the sanitizer in a multiple-mile radius and then gets stuck with a garage full of sanitizer, that sounds like the best of a bad deal to me - maybe even karma for trying game a market rather than simply letting the market work.

Good info.

I got the same email. I wouldn't have known any better, but my wife works at one of the restaurants on Main Street in Park City and had heard the low down right away as she is down there now.
Apparently, the decision to close a bunch of restaurants in Park City was just made too. That's really going to hit the wallet, especially for the servers.

I watched the end of that news conference. Pence was asked if they were considering 'domestic travel restrictions' and his answer didn't confirm ANYTHING!

This is 'Fake News' until confirmed otherwise!

Also from the article:

Asked if he was considering any domestic travel restrictions, Trump said: "Yes, specifically from certain areas, yes we are."
"We're working with the states and we're considering other restrictions, yes," he said.
That's not exactly not denying it.

Hopefully this is not a false negative. Testing too early can give false negative results.

I didn't see the earlier portion of the news conference when Trump was there, sooo apparently my info is incomplete.

That said, I'm sure they're 'considering' lots of things! EVERYTHING seems VERY fluid and is apparently changing EVERY 12 Hours, if not sooner! I'll wait until they announce specifics/confirm details prior to 'freaking out' re: any particular decision...

I'm sure you are right. If they aren't considering every possible option based on how things progress, something is very, very wrong.

a1abdjIf I were a local retail business I would limit stock to customers who frequent my establishment.
All of the Amazon/Internet buyers can get their supplies online. Those hypocrites shouldn’t be out locally eliminating options from patrons who have made the choice to support the local economy.

Not just beds/rooms. Critical care beds equipped with ventilators. A 300 bed hospital might have only 5% critical care. Not a set rule, but do realize they are by far less common than a standard "bed".

mbinkyThe fresh meat/poultry sections were a little bare when I hit the Food Lion at 0615 today (my normal Saturday time). I went back just before noon for something and they were restocked.
It's insane. Worse than hurricane season (and I am in eastern NC).
Buddy just sent me this pic. Appears someone left a package of ass wipe in the beer section. Maybe beer was more important? Told him to snatch it up. Hell it's probably worth a 1986 Camaro Berlinetta and a round of drinks over at Tobie's in Jacksonville

sjtillMaladat: Thanks for posting the Worldometer graphs.
Right now we are looking more like Italy a couple of weeks ago than South Korea now.
The South Korea graph shows flattening of total cases, and reversal of deaths vs recovery.
It will be a week or two before we see any improvement, most likely.

XLTlast month I was at MCT San Diego watching the marines Graduate. 2 days later when we were at Disneyland, I had a sore thought followed by fever, chills, hacking like nothing I had before, wife daughter and Marine boyfriend all had it within days of each other. We went to the doctor tested negative for the flu, this went on for a full month, after the first few days it felt like it was going to go away they it came back. had to sleep sitting up it was pretty bad. His parents and grandparents were there but never got sick to my knowledge.
The wife and I are wondering if we had it and never knew it? doctors did not seem to worried about it and we were never tested for it.
Now there are confirmed cases of corona at MCT, daughters boyfriend since has gone to Pendleton for combat training and now is in north Carolina for the final leg of being a marine reserve, he still has a nasty cough, we have told him he needs to go see a medic and let them know.
We are wondering what we could do at this point?

r0gueIt's obvious some won't even consider that the outcome of failing at social distancing is an unspeakable disaster. It's a perspective that's hard to break. I was there until I had the gravity of it weigh upon me as we began preparations to receive patients in great numbers.
I desperately hope you are all 100% correct. I don't want to be right. I don't want to be close to right. I wan't to be spectacularly unfathomably wrong.
So... in that way, we are aligned.
Either way, please pray for those who work at the hospitals. Pray you're right too. I will as well. In two weeks, I think we'll know.
