    April first is NYS trout opener. I have to tell you the steams are literally shoulder to shoulder. It's my Birthday fishing tradition. NOT this year. I fear though a nice day and non roaring creeks and everyone not working....It's really going to be a "Fools day".

    Doing a video conference with India right now also, I am not really paying attention to anything.

    Also texting mom who lives in a community and she wants to go out with the most high-risk person in the facility.

    Thanks for asking

    I stopped reading here, tell.me where this is currently happening here in the US?

    "Today, with the coronavirus ravaging America’s health care system, the nation’s emergency-response stockpile is still waiting on its first shipment. The scarcity of ventilators has become an emergency, forcing doctors to make life-or-death decisions about who gets to breathe and who does not."

    Google it:). The point when you passed that is how Bush and Obama Administrations blew it.

    Googled it and found nothing but hypotheticals on how they may have to make that decision if things get to that point.

    NY Times matter of factly stated it is happening now, so no need to read past the fear mongering deception to sway the readers into their BS.

    To the second point, so you are saying Trump was truthful when he said he took over a completely depleted system and it is not his fault.

    Exactly for the second point, that was the point:). Now what the hell he did 2017-until now is another story, but this should not be a problem Trump had to deal with.

    FYI I skipped right over the fear-mongering parts I am numb to them.

    I agree with you whole heartedly " What he did between 2017 and now is another story"
    He did a lot of things while under attack, yes attack from his party and mostly the Democrats. Muellar,impeachment, never Trumpers in the beginning. Where was the rest of our government. Oh thats right investigating Trump, fighting a tight border, producing sanctuary cities. BTW, Funny it was a total hands off to the federal gov . Now it's we demand you help us and faster than humanly possible. How did these governors and mayors spend their budgets during that time? Well I know the Cuomo failed follies. Lets go with the college campus company start up follie. Then the list just gets longer and longer. It was like this across the country.

    Fed projection claims we could see 32% unemployment...that would be bad.

    OK. I'm sorry guys listen up, Cuomo is a liar. He's saying everyone across the country needs to help NY and NY will be there to help you. No , no they won't. For one thing He can not force these health care workers that are battered and beaten by this to go to another state and continue the beating. All its going to do is hurt your people period.
    Look at the number of health care and police now infected there. Please send your needed here to be infected before things are bad in your areas. WTH!

    I'm adding an * to total infections. It is not taking into consideration recoveries or deaths. Who knows what the current real number is for infected(those confirmed by positive testing).

    Past 11 day new cases for IL

    19th 136

    20th 163

    21st 168

    22nd 296

    23rd 236

    24th 250, 4 new deaths

    25th 330, 3 new deaths

    26th 673, 7 new deaths

    27th 488, 8 new deaths

    28th 465, 13 new deaths including an infant

    29th 1,105, 18 new deaths

    30th 461, 8 new deaths

    Total statewide= 5,056* with 73 deaths.

    *Numbers are being compounded daily but have yet to reflect change for recoveries or deaths

    Imagine what this graph would look like if it knocked totals down with deaths and recoveries.

    Who knows what the true number of current cases really is.
