I just heard all buffalo Schools closed until April 20th. Wow. https://www.wgrz.com/article/news/health/coronavirus/all-erie-county-public-schools-to-close-schools-through-april-20/71-a3db39c9-cf03-4306-954f-cb189afeb7c4

I thought they would go after Brady. Seemed like the best fit for him. Im wondering if he will just stay in New England though, with offseason programs potentially being in jeopardy. It would be tough to switch teams (especially at his age, where time is critical) and not have the offseason programs to get family,air with your new receivers/offense etc.

And that was a governor! ?‍♂️

Mark Poloncarz anno7nced that he talked to all the big grocery stores and they said that their food supply is not impacted so there is no need to bulk buy food. Hopefully that message will start getting out there.

I see people bragging about being out in crowded places all over social media.

To keep this post shorter and hopefully not political, I’ll just post this link - (credible source IMO) https://www.factcheck.org/2020/03/the-facts-on-trumps-travel-restrictions/ and even if it did buy some time (the virus was already confirmed here for at least 10 days before the restrictions, and we don’t really know if there were more cases or if it bought time since very little testing has been done), IMO it doesn’t seem like they really used that time to prepare the country. So I’m not too sure what it ultimately accomplished. Hopefully that answer wasn't political. I’ll end it here too so I don’t derail this thread.

Yeah a lot of people were caught off guard, it seems. also, I’m wondering what exactly this “advanced screening” is that o’hare started yesterday? I hope that doesn’t mean they are just now ramping up screening for international passengers? I truly pray you are right about this not being as serious as it’s being made out to be. I am definitely feeling uneasy about all of this. I see what’s happening in Italy and It’s not like they are a 3rd world country or something. They have a very good healthcare system + facilities. I have a friend who lives over there and she says it’s like nothing she’s ever seen. She said they weren’t prepared at all. Said it was like someone dropped a bomb on them. My main fear is that I have 3 people in my immediate family (that I am in close contact with) who are in the high risk categories. I’m not exactly low risk either. I travel for work and for medical reasons. Still trying to figure everything out. Kind of in wait and see mode. I may not even be able to fly by then, who knows. I’m Thankful I don’t have another trip plan until April, but I can’t imagine flying into a JFK international terminal right now. I flew there at the end of January and it was a bit strange. Lots of people on edge. Lots wearing masks (most were those dr masks that don’t really protect you) and you could see that it was kind of spooking other passengers. I was talking with 2 passengers flying back from China. They said it was chaos in the airports there. They were scrambling to get back (they were very surprised to be able to walk right through customs here without any additional screening. That freaked me out but they did say they had their temperatures taken at the airport in China). And I had 5 Chinese speaking passengers sitting (literally) right next to me on the plane, all wearing face masks. It wasn’t s fun trip so I can’t imagine what flying would be like right now.

It was only a matter of time. Stay safe friends.

This is pretty cool. I’ve been thinking a lot about all the healthcare workers throughout the world, on the front lines of this pandemic. Lots of stories of bravery and selflessness. I am very thankful for all of them.

They made it sound like the site would be up nation wide very shortly (said they would announce when on Sunday), then spent a bunch of time telling everyone how to use the site. How they can schedule tests on it etc. Even had a chart made up going over the website. Come to find out there are actually no current plans to roll out the site nation wide and google has no idea they were going to make this announcement.

Yeah I am seeing Tons of stories like this all over the place. From doctors, nurses, patients, media members trying to get tested, etc. (I started collecting some of them. I have a whole page of them so far and that was just in about 30 minutes of looking) I have a friend who’s a doctor. He said trying to get someone tested in his area is an absolute nightmare.

If true it almost seems like Belichick is sort of pushing him out the door.

Just saw this on Twitter. Hopefully it’s true. It could be a big help to us right now if it is.
