Is it weird to you how relatively quiet this thread is? I mean I know there’s not a lot of info yet, and a lot of what there is to talk about is scary and/or conjecture. And I know the Democratic primary has people focused on that.

I’m just slightly surprised that only a handful of us are regulars in this thread.

Thanks for posting good info BTW

Yeah, idk more people are probably up tied in the election right now or aren't worried about being directly affected. I agree.

Thanks beats arguing about the election

Guys, this I know for a fact. Some hospitals in Florida have around 2-10 cases they are trying to treat. Meanwhile, nurses and doctors in certain areas take 0 precaution. Not even wearing a mask. No, I am not kidding.Why?

They all believe Trump and Rush Limbaugh saying this is just a cold. A nurse I know took care of a patient and now she is sick and scared. She is asking me for guidance since I was so vocal about it. That's because the CDC and these hospitals give no protocols and no guidelines. It's all juelzing. I am honestly in shock and disbelief over the negligence and sheer ignorance of some people down here.

Don't believe me ? Call a hospital in the Panhandle or West/Central FL and ask them how they are treating patients with the virus. See what you are told.

The only reason DeSantis came out and said we had cases in FL was because some nurses wanted to blow the whistle on the cover up.

If you are in FL, do not trust anybody at all. Lotta people in FL may be infected and they do not even know.

Last night, a coworker who claims to be apolitical (white woman, you know the rest) texted me asking where I got masks and hand sanitizers from. She thought it was all a hoax until the school told her all students need to have their own

Stay Safe!

It is hard to imagine a living arrangement more poorly suited to a COVID-19 outbreak than one in which large numbers of older people live in close proximity, eating and socializing in communal spaces, Joe Pinsker reports:

As the disease caused by the coronavirus has spread in a nursing home near Seattle, other facilities around the country are implementing plans to mitigate risk.

According to a new report, keyword combinations censored in China include “Wuhan + CCP + Crisis + Beijing” “and “US Centers for Disease Control + Coronavirus.”

Russia’s and China’s different strategies speak to the myriad, interconnected risks associated with the virus beyond the immediate medical ones.

Iran is often described as an isolated country, but the spread of the coronavirus has made clear that the Islamic Republic is less isolated than often assumed.

Iran’s political and economic isolation hasn’t stopped COVID-19—but sanctions are threatening to turn an outbreak into a catastrophe.
