If we sanction, I don’t care about boycotting although it seems I already have by accident.
Perhaps Trump will finish what Obama set out to ruin from the beginning of his administration.
Trump said to social distance until April 30th. My birthday is May 1st, so I guess we’ll be all set. Who knows though. Maybe Alex Rodriguez?
Fauci said between 100000 and 200000 deaths. Not too bad actually. Say it’s 150000. 0.05% of the USA population. So 1 in 2000 will die. So either we have done well in responding or if it was always going to be 1 in 2000, we have overreacted. We still have a ways to go. I was just pleased when I heard him say that. I was expecting 150000 people to die in NYC, which would have been almost 2% of NYC.
In 2017, 2.8 million people died in the US. If COVID-19 adds 200,000 in 2020, that would be a 7% increase. It’s far more likely, however, that a large majority of those people would have died this year anyway due to other underlying health conditions. It’s far more likely that COVID-19 will only result in an increase of 2% or so to the total annual deaths in the US this year, and even fewer elsewhere.
It looks like it’s going to kill John prine.
It’s amazing he’s still alive. I assumed he was in his 80s, but he’s the same age as mitt Romney. 73. Has not had a healthy life at all.
Sorry to hear that.
My health has slammed to zero with all the stress, sick people, commute to work and graveyard hours as well as dust from the mess I have here and the grass cutting and trimming.
Here is what I have been using as a kick and relaxer instead of Corona or Coors can. It works for now and I often do some type of crazy workout immediately after. It keeps me alert but is wearing off. Of course it costs me to drink, just like a beer does as far as body resources and allocations for recovery etc. Right now it is up on the balance, but soon it will just start eating away like a caustic more than any other benefit.
medellin was just on dutch tv news showing how they use singing policemen, drones and hearses to warn the citizens
Dan, are you familiar with any hospital being over run by coronavirus patients? I’m guessing New York is swamped with COVID-19 patients.
they can get on a plane to the netherlands, apparently we still have planes from newyork landing here and people dont even get checked when entering our country
That’s irresponsible and outrageous. China has over 30 new cases. Don’t you think your country should be showing responsibility toward the rest of us in this new world?
its a bit strange since we do not allow any flights from china, italy, iran, spain, austria and south korea
official statement from our ministry of health: “we assume that all people that have symptoms stay at home, that includes people from new york”
The coronavirus must be a respecter of persons.
I can’t find where any hospitals are being overrun except for this one:
I did read somewhere that one of those two ships was going to admit strictly COVID-19 patients. I’m guessing that will be Comfort. Trump said it was loaded to the gills so I guess it has been prepped to handle the most grave cases.

those 2 ships are nice but most likely not enough, imagine how many people you could help if any of the other 500 ships in the us navy had similar setups
Obviously that won’t be necessary or it would be done.
