Dell employee tests positive.

A Dell employee tested positive 5 days after returning to India. So they've told us to work from home until 3/24 "if your job allows".

I wasn’t looking for hand sanitizer but I’m pretty sure there was a pallet of it at Costco in Plano today. I see a money making opportunity here. Maybe better than selling drugs, and legal too.

I am not attempting to spin panic, I am simply sharing some truth based upon reported findings.

The problem with saying "Atlanta school employee," is that employee could live in a very large geographic area if said person commutes. This still holds true, however based upon it only being Fulton County at this time, chances are the employee is a resident of that county.


While you’re correct that it is the Fulton County School System, you didn’t quote/strike it correctly. While it is the Fulton County school system, I specifically said “Atlanta-area”, not Atlanta, to identify the location since 3/4 or more of those on the board not from Georgia would be more likely to know and recognize Atlanta than Fulton County.

That said, I suspect there will be more cases and in their abundance of caution, we’re going to be in for a ride.

Leah McElrath, a democratic activist riding comfortably on the “Trump can only do wrong” bandwagon, decided to take a moment to comment on his reaction to the Coronavirus by fantasizing how Clinton would have handled it, which according to McElrath, would have been a much faster affair.

“Can you imagine how quick and organized the response to the coronavirus would have been if Hillary Clinton had been in the White House?” asked McElrath.


James Woods responded:

You mean like her snappy response to our Americans being slaughtered in #Benghazi, which she slept through? In a drunken stupor. As usual. As quick and organized as that?

This is an interesting time to be watching the Amazon prime show Counterparts. Hits kind of close to home.

Right, I even did a quick check, but still managed to mix up Clancys.

The South Koreans continue to do much better at 54 deaths : 7,513 confirmed cases = 0.7 percent CFR.

Good point. I added "area" to my original post and your quote of it. Smile

I don't think many not from the area understand what the label of "Atlanta" might include. At this point it's a pretty general area to the "locals."

I’m in the “Atlanta Metro” area. Read last night and confirmed on local news this morning, a daycare 2 miles from my house but not my county has a positive patient. Nice. It’s location is right next to local businesses we often visit and most in our neighborhood also. We’ll see how this goes. A case in “Atlanta” can mean somewhere in like a 15 county metro area. Im over 30 miles from downtown.

Same with me. I’m guessing China pretty much just monitors their people in their “hospital” with coronavirus and if they die, they die.

I'm finding I'm having to unfollow and snooze people on social media because everyone has suddenly become a friggen' infectious disease expert/immunologist/virologist in the past week or so. Ugh. Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

They previously were Constitutional scholars and experts on impeachment, many of them Kremlinologists to boot but now that's all passe.

Recent days have seen a further downturn in the number of new cases announced by China’s National Health Commission, not that experts ever really trusted the data. Of the 19 new infections reported by the NHC early Tuesday, 17 were in Wuhan, while the remaining two were "imported" cases of the disease, or at least that would seem to fit with the new focus of the regime's propaganda: tightening restrictions on visitors from the US, Italy and other countries impacted by the virus, while complaining that the west hasn't shown China appropriate deference for its "sacrifice" in containing the outbreak...

"appropriate deference"? How about a big FUCK YOU China for starting this whole mess. When do you plan to export the next novel coronavirus our way?

He had some sort of falling out and went from a pretty solid Trump guy to a crazy anti-Trumper in less than a year. Something Trump did or said to him must have pissed him off bad.

I used to check that site multiple times a day since 1999 or so. Now, I don't even bother, it's all garbage links now. Orange Man Bad, Sky is Falling. Fuck him.
