Trump's reelection depends on his response to all this.
And I sincerely hope he handles this well.

I just called my local hospital and offered to start building these:

they said, "thanks, maybe later"

but maybe wanna pass it on.  it sounds like the "you live/you die" decisions are being made due to a lack of ventilators

We (the Chief and I) just got the 48-72hr warning on the National Guard.

It hasn't hit the press yet, don't go looking for it.

Maybe in the United States.

In Tucson, we aren't doing shit except the muggers wear proper masks.

Turns out India is even dumber than we are.

To all my Australian Discordians:

Scott Morrison, a.k.a. Scomo, released an announcement this morning. No more than 100 people in an enclosed space, don't hoard stuff, and don't go overseas. We are stuck on our itty bitty island, back to being prisoners like the convicts before us. Also, he's going to keep the schools open as long as he can.

Yeah.  It's a pandemic.

Working from Home from today, at least that is possible. My mother works accounts for a fish processing plant and they are all being laid off on Friday temporary. Not because there are no fish, but because none of the hotels are ordering.
Herself(my fiance) is now 6 weeks away from due date so we are basically not setting foot outside.

Just listen to any of these songs. Ideal lyrics for our current situation. The Common Cold is our new national anthem.

Wait, did you catch it? God, best hopes for you and the husband! Serious finger crossing on my end.

I had a thing. There's no tests and the tests that exist are trash, so every sniffle you kinda have to assume. We have at least one confirmed case in the city and something like 57 presumptive ones (with actual health care interaction) so basically between 500 and 5000 people have it and maybe more than that. There was a confirmed case at the casino one if the days the husband was there, so we have a plausible vector. Anyway, my immune system is a boss and I'm staying in to make sure I don't give this to anyone else, whether it's The Plague or just a minor bug that could still chew up resources and threaten elderly folks.

Surprise, surprise, surprise.
