At my work they started to provision with canisters of wipes (like what you'd wipe down your kitchen with). And... yeah people are taking them home. Its the new normal.

What if the mail carrier was infected and handed customers a infected piece of paper?

That could be literally anything. What if the grocery store clerk was infected and stocked a bunch of aisles? Just wash your hands and wipe down anything you receive

Our state, and I assume each state has one has a detailed page on Coronkung19 with all sorts of info. We are up to 83/3 but just a week ago I think it was 1 case. Noticed a week ago our gov showed as a accomplishment 3/15/2020: Brought Kentuckians on the Grand Princess cruise ship back home.

Just got the classic "secret service guy down the street said everything Nationwide getting shut down tomorrow"
It has some credibility in that the guy does know the secret service guy, and there are a bunch of secret service and even ex cia people around, but I still find it all pretty dubious. It's hard to know with how stupid everything is though

Tracking the coronavirus around the U.S.: See how your state is doing
View NPR's maps and graphics to see where COVID-19 is hitting hardest in the U.S., which state outbreaks are under control and where cases are still spreading.

That graphic, at first glance, doesn't seem to show much of a difference in growth rates for the states that have locked everyone inside vs those which had partying on the beach until Friday. Naturally that doesn't account for distinctions of overall population or population density so might be misleading.

Have faith that our elected officials can always find a way to fuck shit up worse than it is. I spent the last month joking about this being the end of our Republic as we know it. I'm actually starting to think the chance of this being true is no longer 0%.

I think there's going to be a lot of this sort of thing in southeastern PA soon.

Bud, millions of people have lost or are going to lose their jobs. Hospitals don't have enough PPE to be able to give proper care. This is a very real issue. The DPA is necessary, we are going to run out of supplies and be unable to address this disease. Individual citizens are being called upon to stay in their homes, and sacrifice their incomes and financial stability to help stem infection rates. We have no choice in the matter.
But people like you would rather protect corporate interests than protect the citizens of this country. No matter the cost.
The sooner we ramp up production and actually have test kits and PPE the sooner we can focus isolation efforts and get back to fucking work.
