Probably increased testing. Nationally, testing has really ramped up, but for the last week or so the new case numbers have leveled off in the low 30k's range despite testing a lot more people. So that would seem to indicate that it's no longer spreading exponentially. "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

Disease spreading in an assisted living facility or nursing home? That's happening in my county. We had 1 then 3, 7, 13, and now 20 cases in nursing homes or assisted care facilities. | |||

I believe its like Gas-X except sold in Mexico for when Paco overindulges at the cantina on free tequila with every Super Grande bean burrito purchase night. ___________________________________Sigforum - port in the fake news storm.____________Be kind to the Homeless.

A close friend of my mother in law's, a Long Islander, tested positive last week. She was admitted to the hospital and released the next day. She told us that several people were admitted for the same overnight stay and her opinion was that's it was just to pad the numbers. She used to own a large medical supply company in NY so she knows here way around the medical world. | |||

Just came back from the grocery store (Publix). I counted eight people- including myself- not wearing a mask. For fuck's sake. Next time I go back, I'm wearing a motorcycle helmet with the visor down, and a cape. They have blue tape on the floor at the head of each aisle, in the shape of an arrow, pointing the direction you should take down the aisle. I went down every Goddamned aisle in that store, against their arrows. Only one person said something. Some crotchety old lady muttered "You're supposed to be going only one way." I said to her "I am going only one way." And if they make it mandatory to wear a mask in the store, I swear to God, I'll just tap into my reserves and leave them to their fucking circus. ____________________________________________________ "I am your retribution." - Donald Trump, speech at CPAC, March 4, 2023 | |||

And I shall recoil from people as they approach, and hiss at them. Although the hissing may be ineffective- 'cause of the, uh, visor and all. | |||

DO NOT stand on the X at the store. If you do you might look up and see an Acme safe or a baby grand about to land on you. | |||

Reminds me of that scene in Mr Mom with Michael Keaton- the one where he is dropping his kids off at school going the opposite direction and all the mothers are yelling at him "You're doing it wrong!"  "I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted, and I won't be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to other people and I require the same from them." - John Wayne in "The Shootist" | |||

And nothing else. That'll get their attention.  Nice is overrated "It's every freedom-loving individual's duty to lie to the government." Airsoftguy, June 29, 2018 | |||

Ha ha ha ha...............guess Latino was too restrictive and insensitive: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latinx Latinx is a gender-neutral neologism, sometimes used instead of Latino or Latina to refer to people of Latin American cultural or ethnic identity in the United States. The ⟨-x⟩ suffix replaces the standard ⟨-o/-a⟩ ending of nouns and adjectives that are typical of grammatical gender in Spanish. Its plural is Latinxs. The term was first seen around 2004, predominantly online, among intersectional advocacy groups combining the identity politics of race, class, and gender. It slowly gained in usage, and around 2014 in US universities its usage became widespread. Words used for similar purposes include Chicanx, Latin@ and Latine. Reactions to the term have been mixed. Supporters say it engenders greater acceptance among non-binary gender Latinxs. Both supporters and detractors point to linguistic imperialism as a reason for respectively supporting or opposing the use of the term. "No matter where you go - there you are" | |||

I've worn a mask at the grocery. Not while outdoors, but inside I'll take the precaution for me and my family. Call my panicked or whatever - I am not risking someone getting too close, coughing, sneezing, etc. I haven't seen the arrows on the floor yet, but I don't care having to do that. For me everyone needs to take responsibility. If walking one way down an aisle helps keep order and 6 ft. separation, I'll do it. Call me a sheep. flame away. | |||

Some crotchety old lady muttered "You're supposed to be going only one way." I said to her "I am going only one way." | |||
