True the Social Distancing is just plain annoying and I need less of it in my life. No it will not kill me but I am constantly having to change contacts from my eyes rolling back in my head when I go out. Yet the TRUE damage is unseen by most. No not the immediate damage by the economy melt down - we all see that. It is what the Government is learning from their control of this. Yes such as being able to say what business can or cannot exist in this climate. While it is now being implemented by a knee-jerk state government, it is what the future Dems (mostly but not completely) will learn and deploy in the future. OK tin hat is off now. Carry on. | |||

It is interesting the trending in FL continues to show a peak a week or two behind so many other places. Wonder what's driving that? You only have integrity once. - imprezaguy02 | |||

Just saw 300 workers at a South Dakota meat packing plant that distributes nationwide have covid? That's about half of the cases in the entire state, all located in one single plant. Now we have bacon issues! | |||

True enough Smithfield's has been closed for a few days. Now they're going to lockdown for a total of 14 days. Major bacon provider for the country and pork processor for regional farmers.

fed up as well, but for another reason I'm pretty sure the numbers that are being used to strike panic in people are being seriously manipulated by certain states - for example requiring that ALL deaths in assisted living or nursing facilities be attributed to the flu and not to what is perhaps the real underlying issue pretty sure that NY, CA and WA are gaming the system - and the media falls for it have you ever tried to find out WHERE a particular COVID case is - our state has according to the media 3539 case and 115 deaths thats 3.24% mortality - about on par with the usual influenza cases that hit the country every single year but precisely where are those cases...Phoenix, Tucson, Ajo, Flagstaff.... and why are mayors making decisions on business closures? | |||

I got to play social distancing cop at the Apt. house, yesterday . Two of the old ladies that live downstairs were out in the back parking lot , gabbing . but they were only two feet apart , so I opened up the patio door and hollered down to them about the 6 foot distance rule. One sort of gave me a little bit of stink eye, but they both knew from previous experience that I was just looking out for them . Safety, Situational Awareness and proficiency.

From Mark Levin: To be clear. President Trump hasn't shut down a single business. The Governors did." We’re seeing the most draconian measures enforced at all levels of government that we've ever seen in our lifetimes, and yet rather than being alarmed by the things going on, so many of you applaud. People are being arrested for spending too much time outside, and you applaud. Pastors are being arrested for daring to hold church services, and you applaud. A child's birthday party is raided by police, and you applaud. A young woman is ticketed for going on a leisurely drive alone because it's deemed "non-essential travel", and you applaud. A parade of school teachers and administrators who wanted to drive through neighborhoods and wave at children is busted up by cops because they were "nonessential," and you applaud. A lone paddleboarder in the ocean on a beach without any other people around is arrested because he's violating quarantine orders, and you applaud. People are being denied life saving medical treatments because they're not a priority right now (not "essential" as deemed by the government) as the entirety of our medical system is focused on one thing, and you applaud. Businesses are beings forcibly closed and padlocked and owners arrested for refusing to shut down, and you applaud. Dairy farmers (and soon, other farmers) are being incentivized to stop dairy farming and to sell their herds, and you don't seem to understand the implications. You're being told to use hotlines and online forms provided by your local governments to report your neighbors who don't obey, and you comply. You scold people day after day for not obeying government edicts, and if any of us dare to question what's happening, you lecture about how we're a danger to society and and we just don't care about people dying. You've somehow managed to convince yourselves that the people whose lives are affected by a virus are MUCH more important than the people whose lives are being destroyed (and in many cases, leading to death) by the effects of a worldwide economic shutdown and impending worldwide depression the likes of which no one has ever seen before. At what point will you start QUESTIONING what's going on? How far does the government have to push before you're jolted awake from your slumber? How far are you willing to go with this? If they told you to load your families onto train cars so that you could be taken to Virus Protection Facilities for your own safety, would you do it? YES. Yes, you would. That much has become painfully obvious to me. And the whole time, you'd be shaking your finger and yelling at those of us who refused, accusing us of being "a danger to society" and "not caring if people die." But they don't have to load you onto train cars and take you to Virus Protection Facilities, or force you to comply, because you do that voluntarily. They control your mind. They control you through fear. They control you by convincing you that the world is a scary dangerous place, but they're here to protect you, care for you, and keep you safe, just as long as you OBEY. They know that as long as you're locked inside your comfortable home with Netflix, Hulu, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and a cell phone, while dangling a $1200 check in front of you like a carrot on a stick, you'll comply. No force is necessary for the majority of the herd. YOU ARE IMPRISONED, willingly, and you're too blind to see it. By Mark Levin Spot. On.

Absolutely cooking the books. The US is counting Corona deaths as people that died while testing positive. Not died from Corona, died with Corona. I guy I know works in Hospice care. He told of this case. "A hospice patient of ours. He had been in hospice care since January. He was literally on his death bed, with Cancer, heart and lung issues. He was 91. He died, as expected, no one in his family were surprised. BUT his death certificate listed Cause of Death: Covid-19!" | |||

Dr. Birx admitted as much on TV last week. Basically said if you die in a car wreck but test positive for Covid-19, you get added to the statistics. The 20k Covid-19 deaths across the entire nation is a bullshit number. | |||

Just had my first real suspected C-19 patient last night (We've had plenty that meet criteria, but this is the first one we really think had it), which came in as something totally unrelated. However the initial report prompted us to go with full precautions. The patient was completely alert and oriented however halfway to the hospital his heart rate plummeted and he went unresponsive and then shortly thereafter into cardiac arrest. We got him back after a minute or two and electrically paced his heart to keep his HR up, however once in the hospital they found valid DNR paperwork and stopped the pacing which caused him to pass. The hospital stated they had been seeing this a lot. Completely random symptom followed by sudden downturn. Sucks. | |||

How old? "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 | |||

https://www.breitbart.com/poli...pening-of-economies/ The Democrat governors of New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut are discussing plans Monday for a coordinated regional reopening of their economies after the coronavirus pandemic subsides. “It all has to be coordinated regionally,” New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) said during a briefing in Albany Sunday, reported the Center Square. “We closed everything down in a coordinated fashion, and we did it regionally. … That partnership is very important for our individual states and our collective states.” Cuomo said he would be speaking with New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy and Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont about a coordinated effort. In his own state, Cuomo issued two more executive orders, one directing employers in essential businesses to provide staff with masks while interacting with the public, and another to expand antibody testing. “The keys to reopening the economy are continuing to limit the spread of the virus and ramping up antibody testing,” the governor said. “These measures will be key to getting people back to work and making sure they are protected when they do go back.” | |||

Wow. Makes you wonder how long he'd been battling symptoms and to what severity. Either incredibly unfortunate for him or really poor timing/decision process on seeking help. You only have integrity once. - imprezaguy02 | |||

Great synopsis by Levin, thanks for posting, sigmonkey. I feel kid of dumb because the media keeps talking about Trump opening things back up but I don't know what he shut down. On another note, I run an "essential" business in NY and if Cuomo insists on anyone at my place wearing a mask he'll need to provide me with some. He should probably send me a thermometer while he's at it because I guess I'm supposed to be taking everyone's temp but we don't have a thermometer and there are none to buy. I told people I'll do it like mom did, I'll gently press my lips to their forehead but they weren't too keen on that. | |||
