    I have ZERO faith in anything China says about their rates.

        Re: CDC Officials Warn of Coronavirus Outbreaks in the United States.

        The owner of my company sent a text a few days ago to the President of our company saying his son recently went to Europe and after flying in from Spain he tested positive so the entire family is quarantining themselves.

        We're basically in a "let's ride this thing until the wheels fall off" situation here and while I'd like the company to be a little smarter, I also have a wife and two kids at home now (wife's work shut down) and we have bills to pay. Just paid my water bill yesterday so there's no sign of any break coming on bills.

        Never been behind on anything and I don't want to start now. There are just so many moving parts and people in a lot worse shape than us to think about. The government is asking the American people to sacrifice for the good of the country and to save lives. It's their responsibility to provide relief in return IMO. I think we'll get there, but maybe too slow for some. Without diving into politics I think we're all being hamstrung by people looking out for their personal image and who is getting the credit for helping the people. Bottom line for me is the people drawing a check from tax payer money need to grow up and figure it out.

        What I do find encouraging is how much good has actually come of this. A lot of local businesses here have come together to help offer school children meals who rely on school lunches. They have pick up spots multiple times per day in different locations. It's sad that so many people require the help, but great that people are willing to help.

        Same with the businesses who are actually paying employees for time off without being "voluntold" by the government.

        \END RANT.

          Re: CDC Officials Warn of Coronavirus Outbreaks in the United States.

          A new study came out from the CDC and it's surprising people:

          discuss new data outlining the risk of coronavirus to people under the age of 65, who were previously thought to be less susceptible to the virus.

          Younger people under age 65 are going into ICU, not necessarily increasing the mortality rate.

          That article that waittilnextyear included in here is now being discussed as a 18 month or longer contingency plan of CV by the federal government.

            Good thing my wife was able to get some shopping in. It's been a crazy week for me.

            After 18 years yesterday possibly was my last day at my job. I was hired by our state health dept and my start date is suppose to be April 2nd. With everything going on, I've been told by my future boss everything is still a go. If that falls through, my old job is holding my position for 30 days in case. That's reassuring for sure.

            On Monday, my dad passed in the nursing facility in his sleep. He was 84. I saw him 2 weeks ago. Literally 2 days after my visit, the facility went into lockdown with no outside visitors.

            His wake is tomorrow, and we're being told by the funeral home, his viewing is limited to 10 people at a time. Between his kids and grandkids there are 12 of us alone.

            Then I find out I may have been exposed to Covid-19 and I should probably self quarantine for at least 7 days and monitor my symptoms.

            What a FN week... Feels like the world is going to hell in a handbag..

            But again, this place helps ease the pain, as it always has.

            Steve if you read this, thanks again for providing us this place to get together and bond from all over the world, it's in a time like this, that OS means a lot.

            I hope you and your family are safe and well

                    5 year old in Maryland has the virus.


                    MD is basically shut down other than food services. If you participate in anything other than those services you are in violation of the law.

                          So sorry for your loss, Joe. Losing someone is always hard and I'm sure it's especially hard during these times. I know a funeral with so few people and without hugs and normal funeral interaction will be really tough. Prayers to you and your family...

                          ...and please keep us updated with how your quarantine is going. We're always here if you need to talk.
