    I disagree, # matters less to me than percentage of deaths...now up to 17% of outcomes and NOT trending well. Screenshot_20200327-152628_Chrome.jpeg Screenshot_20200327-152623_Chrome.jpeg

    While the math doesn't lie, there is a lag in the resolution of nondeath cases. In other words, death hits the people not able to fight off the virus faster than the healthy people can fight off the virus. And the reporting of resolved cases may also be lagging.

    It will level then drop in about 7-10 days. We have to hope that the cities getting hit now will not suck up all the PPE and leave the small town areas like mine without.

    Our local hospital is already low on masks as they have not been able to get resupplied. The need is greater else where.

    It’s an open forum where people share and discuss different opinions. When I post Or interact with someone and they don’t have the same thoughts as me I sure as hell hope they don’t think we are feuding.

    I know there are some who have actual feuds, but they are rare.

    With that said... found this visual representation absolutely crazy. Shows just how important it is to just stay home.

    I got dressed in actual clothes for the first time this week today. Went to the liquor store and Got some take out lunch at our local spot to support the small town joint (Goodfellas Bar and Grill). Bill came to $24 and tipped them $20. Don’t forget to support your local businesses during this tough time.

    Thanks. We were pretty busy building a home for the last year or so. Things are normalizing a bit now which is good.

    This is the first wave of the alien invasion. Soften your already weak minded opponents.

    My wife works at the school and I am damn glad she is not exposed to all the students and parents. She is done for the year.

    Jesus, if anybody really wants to know why this crap keeps goin. Here ya go. Other day said my my sister and her husband were supposed to stay home since he went to the doctor. Well past 2 days they've both went to town shopping cause "it's boring sitting at home."

    Now multiply that by thousand, and that boys and girls is why. Now wasn't confirmed becaue didn't take the test. But went to doctor with what the symptoms are got told what to do.

    Traffic on our road hasn't slowed down... I'm sick of bleach. I found 2 n95 masks when looking for a level today. So if they don't cancel my Dr. Appointment I am now prepared. Always have a big supply of gloves due to processing my own game and for gutting.
    This tipped the scale on our local Agway...closing. Tractor supply coming in knee capped them this tipped over their wheel chair.
