Well my gf is at a hospital working in orangeburg sc. she has a potential corona patient but won’t test cause she doesn’t fit criteria. Gf thinks it’s pneumonia. So I’m assuming I’ll get it when she comes home Wednesday. I’ll let you guys know.

A good start. ALL to follow I’d bet. 

Yeah I feel like it’s just a matter of time at this point. NYC closed all bars/restaurants (they can still deliver). Ohio closed all bars. Schools closing around the country. Large events/gatherings being banned.

 

Tells you how serious this is that MGM is voluntarily walking away from millions and millions of dollars. 

 

Hopefully all these closing will flatten the curve.

OK, when Vegas shuts down their casinos, it's about as close to the apocalypse as it can get. Not joking. Lived there for a bit in the 90s. The greed of the casino owners is unparalleled.

that's just it.  on top of that, there's still a lot of non-covid illness floating around.

trying to be realistic here...

 

i expect we've all been exposed, you can't run and hide from it, it is hitting people with $$$$ so that won't save you

 

if you feel sick stay home, try to get out there though...

Interesting Workday just granted a two week bonus for all employees under VP level

Hopefully your gf still has masks and gowns available and can employ infection control procedures so won't become ill.

 

But you might want to suggest she strip just inside the door and put her clothes in a bag to wash separately, then take a shower - purely for infection control purposes of course ?

 

As a practical matter, if we're going to get on top of this, this "no tests" ***** has got to stop NOW.  Taiwan and Singapore now test everyone with fever.

oh yea she's doing the full safety stuff.  yea, i facetimed this morning and had her strip down so i can check for the virus to see if i could see it on her! lol.  they do have a patient with the virus at her hospital. which is in the middle of nowhere.
