IMO the biggest mistakes have been made by our federal government. It was their policies that kept us from being able to test and screen in the very crucial early days of this virus. It was federal policies that didn’t screen passengers traveling from virus epicenters in Europe. It was their policies that put super strict guidelines on who could get a covid test during the early days of the virus. It was their policies that banned states from being able to produce their own covid tests (until early March anyway). It was the federal govt. that ignored the early intel they received from their health agencies. Washington state defied the CDC’s orders and produced their own covid tests early. That’s how they identified their outbreak. IMO it did NOT have to get this bad in the US. We are capable of fighting this virus so much better than we are. Our CDC is a world leader in fighting infectious disease. and it doesn’t have to get worse (but it likely will by reopening before we’re ready, and it seems they’re kind of even admitting that they’re opening before we’re ready and things are going to get worse).

Anyone baking during this COVID-19 confinement period?

Should I put the jar of yeast I have up for bid on EBay...? ? -
Nice weather is absolutely not a reason to reopen the country. Reopening has to be driven by science and the data. Cases are still rising in many states. We still don’t have enough PPE for our frontline workers. We still don’t have enough testing. We don’t have screening in place yet. We don’t have tracing in place yet. Death totals are holding steady between 1500-2000 per day, and that’s with all the stay at home orders. How much worse is it going to be now that people are starting to crowd together again? And even when we reopen, you should still follow social distancing guidelines whenever possible, and wear a mask (esp. indoors and in places social distancing might be tougher). I honestly don't get why why some people are so dead set against wearing a mask. Is it really asking that much? Especially considering what some of our healthcare workers and first responders are going through? Yeah I know. I was just trying to be a wise ass/funny.

https://www.businessinsider.com/new-york-gov-cuomo-announces-coronavirus-state-purchasing-coalition-2020-5 Smart idea by Cuomo. Maybe we should have a consortium of all 50 states for situations like this. You know, like a federation.... Im thinking we could have a centralized federal government and call it something like “the United States of America”...? (I’m still working on the name) ?

https://nhl.nbcsports.com/2020/05/04/nhl-makes-case-to-teams-for-early-june-draft/ ‘NHL makes case to teams for early-June draft’ There would be no draft lottery. That sucks. I guess at least we couldn’t move back 3-4 spots. Buffalo would likely pick 7th (or 8th at worst). But I’d still rather have a draft lottery. This current draft idea would likely put all of the top 3 picks in the draft right in our division. #1 to Detroit #2 to ottawa #3 (SJ sharks pick held by Ottawa) That would Suck! I guess thee would also be no player trades because NHL rosters would remain frozen for a potential resumption of the end of season/playoffs after the draft. That would really hurt the Sabres ability to make changes to this team.

Dalton to the Cowboys 1yr $7M per Schefter
BillsFan4 replied to Process's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Never thought he’d end up with New England. I think they’re going with Stidham and Hoyer. I truly believe that Belichick wants to prove that he can develop another franchise QB, and that it was his system + coaching that was the biggest factor in the NE dynasty. (I obviously hope he fails...lol) -
Yeah, screw those experts. What do they know. No need for masks or social distancing, amirite? Screw the healthcare workers too. So what if they have to put themselves in harms way to take care of those people if they get sick. So what that some of them have even had to isolate from their families for weeks at a time so as not to expose them to covid19. Obviously the most important thing during a pandemic is that people are able to take a walk on crowded streets while ignoring all safety guidelines... oh and get haircuts, manicures and tattoos.

"A mask for every American" Dhvani.com
BillsFan4 replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in Off the Wall
Same here. Ordered my mask from Dhvani about a week ago. They said that they prioritize shipments for healthcare + frontline workers first,average Americans 2nd. So I expect it’ll take a few weeks at least. It’s free though, I’ll be pretty happy as long as it eventually comes. My amazon masks came much quicker than yours though. I ordered a 4 pack of KN95 masks last Monday afternoon and received them 4 days later. Sounds like I lucked out with the seller I picked. I see lots of people on amazon saying the same thing as you.
