Lol, Metamucil !

Yeah, gotta have some fiber in there.

Each morning, have a hearty bowl of oats with dried fruit and you'll be movin' your shit fast enough to put FedEx to shame.

I first read that as "a hearty bowl of cats..." and thought "what...?"

More than likely, this virus is already everywhere and probably has been for quite some time, which is why all this irrational behavior like canceling vacations and work conferences is completely pointless. And declaring a state of emergency when one confirmed case pops up in your state...My god. All we're doing is wrecking the economy and hurting people for nothing. People are dying? Spare me. My wife's grandparents who are in their early nineties both right now have the flu. We're obviously concerned for them. Point being, there are many, many other things on this planet to be worried about that as far as I'm concerned are just as "dangerous" as COVID-19, and no one is drastically altering his or her lifestyle for any of those things. What's happening now is illogical.

For chrissakes, I'm just fed up. Now, all returning crew members to my ship are supposed to have their temperatures taken before boarding as per our new company policy. To what end? So why wasn't this policy always in effect during flu season? Every year people come back to work sick and invariably others onboard get it. I caught something last month while onboard. I got better. Someone else caught it. He got better too.

Ah whatever, I'm done ranting.

I'm flying to Florida Tuesday morning, and the only thing on my mind about that trip is whether or not I'll get my upgrade for the red eye. Pre-takeoff cocktail...very important.

This bares repeating.

Hope you have a blast, travel well.

I had just come across this evening that 15% of the healthcare workers in China who contracted COVID 19 needed ICU treatment.

They probably wouldn't let you land anyway.

They would if you had toilet paper, bottled water, and hand sanitizer on board.

Thank you.

I'm starting to really like this thread.

It’s the run on toilet paper that will be TEOTWAWKI...just look at the situation in OZ ...WARNING...this is from Ozzyman so its content has some bad words

Got it.

A common argument of people that don’t understand that this virus doubles every 6 days, which gives us millions of cases by early May.

And the number that trails right behind your figure, is the number of people that get better, and are thus "all better now", and go back to work. Buying T-shirts with their paychecks that say, "I survived the zombie apocalypse".

Seems like Italy is having a rough go of this "flu."

Yeah that’s a common argument of people who claim to know how long the virus has actually been around versus media hype.

So, what was the first day the virus infected someone? Not the first reported case, the first day? How about the first case in the United States? Actual case and not just confirmed or reported. How many of those “flu” cases that didn’t test positive for Flu A or B in December were actually this virus? You know before it starting hiding and lurking around to shut down the power grid, or steal all the toilet paper?

Thing about the claims of “doubles” every six days is the lack of actual data that supports those claims. Funny thing is none of the “experts” can say for sure. It’s all speculation. And it’s hard to do math to make claims without all the numbers.

What if a bunch of us go to walmart this week and fill a cart with a random health and beauty item, just to see what happens? Like, what if I start walking around the store with a cart brimming with q-tips for an hour or so? Think I can create an artificial run of my own?

That’s only essential if you’re in Philadelphia.
