Good post. Nothing like this has happened in modern news media, let alone the post nine-eleven 24 hour news cycle era.

I said it before, but as a country we are in uncharted territory.
Here's the thing, Jack.


You go to the store and there is no toilet paper:francis:

but this is still plenty of food.:ehh:

Once the food supply begins to take a hit, shyt gonna hit the fan. No pun.


I say stock up on food asap.

Jiu Jitsu
"The case is an Anoka County resident in their 30s who was likely exposed through contact with international travelers," a release from the department said. "The patient developed symptoms Feb. 28 and sought health care March 9."

The patient is in critical condition and hospitalized. Kris Ehresmann of the Minnesota Department of Health said the patient has "no glaringly apparent underlying health conditions that we're aware of right now."

:francis:

Pretty much my last glimmer of hope was that my age group was going to be able to fight this off.

Edit:



:francis:

I've cut back on how much I go out, but I've been going to the gym 4-5 days a week. Probably gonna have to throw that habit in the bushes.

Don't mean to fear monger, we'll probably be fine. But damn this shyt is heavy.

I stopped doing Jiujitsu and mma last week. You’re being smart. You aren’t fear mongering. Social distancing is smart right now.

Btw that person developed symptoms and waited 10 full days to seek medical care. That very likely is a contributing factor to them being in critical condition.

Also smoking, vaping, diabetes, and obesity are huge contributing factors to how bad this thing hits you.

Any Coli brehs that smoke might want to consider trying to quit right now.

Not to scare you breh, but it's really a question of when it comes and not if to comes.

It's in 2 adjacent counties to my county. We're out of test kits here for now, but it makes no sense that it wouldn't be in my county. I posted earlier that my mom is a public health nurse, and this isn't evidence for sure, but for what it's worth she said this week and last week she's had more families and kids with fever and cough. She said during the rest of the flu season she saw much less people coughing. A lot of the families she sees are Chinese also.

I said it before but I'm really worried about mom dukes. She's less than 1 year away from retirement with a full pension at 65, and she's thinking about quitting early anyways. She's at super high risk and if she gets it she's always had bad respiratory infections. She made me go over her will the other day with her and she gave me the keys to her safety deposit box and how to contact her financial advisor directly in case the worst happens. She said if it's her time then she's lived a good life, raised a good son into a good man (yours truly), and that she's prepared to go and leave room for "the young to live their lives" because she said "she's had her time and it was good."
:mjcry: I can't believe she's so strong and at peace if the worst happens. She ain't young in years, but she looks young and has a youthful spirit, and I think she'll be okay; but I'm not ready to lose my mom yet brehs.

Be strong for your mom breh. I worry about my parents too.

My mom is a nurse too and one of the new patients in our state has been treated at her hospital. I talked to her about retiring early too (she's a year away from a full pension too) but she said she doesn't want to live her life out of fear, which I respect but damnit. I don't even know who to be angry with right now. I've been reading as much as I can about how to prevent catching it but I'm giving myself anxiety at this point.
