Your Level of Concern About the Coronavirus......on a scale of 1-10

[Patrick McIrish]

What's the point of cowering down inside while the economy absolutely gets destroyed beyond repair?

We waiting for a big ALL CLEAR?

Other than for political purposes I can't imagine WTF we are hiding inside for?

Every governor that wants a lock down shouldn't take a paycheck.

While they shut things down for the little guy all these MF'ers are still getting paid.

Dems want to win an election......

Went from rooting for deaths to rooting for the economy to collapse.

Strange stuff this politics.

 

[raiders72001]

I don't think it's a stretch to say many flu deaths are now being called coronavirus deaths.

Absolutely no question, and not just the flu.. Follow the money......

If the hospital gets compensated from the government for every coronavirus death, there will be a lot of false designations.

Everyone games the system, it's the American way.

 

[mr merlin]

Lots of deaths today 2300+ plenty of extras tossed in by PA and NJ, but cases are dropping, about 25K but with 240K tests performed that's rather low, we were getting 25-30K in new cases with 1/2 - 2/3's those tests.

The media sure is getting desperate to keep panic high, on the news tonight they said an astonishing 200 people a day are dying in NY - never mentioning it's down 75% in 3 weeks.

 

[Patrick McIrish]

Shameless fear mongering.....

great news that New York and the big states are seeing such a reduction!

the remaining 46 states went from 899 deaths a week ago to 1,294 deaths today.

that's a 44% rise in Deaths from one week ago for the Majority of American States combined

Don't know where you get your numbers, but here's worldometers after reset (YESTERDAY, 5/5/20, 7 small states not counted):

2350 Total deaths
260 NY
322 NJ
346 PA
44 MI
122 MA
176 IL

so 1270 for big states, other states are 1080, rise of "only" 20%. Note FL, CA, CONN ,MD and OH total 393 of these.

Thanks. I had PA total from earlier, didn't notice they added late deaths


Yeah looks like PA, Il, Fl, Miss, and Co with unusually high deaths reported today.

Did you see them yourself or hear about it from another source?

I can't imagine this will last too long

I've been eating @Wendys the last few days

The drive-thrus have a white sheet of paper taped to the drive-thru speaker with the 2 for 5 chicken promo printed on it

Do you want to cause a panic? Just walk in the wrong direction in the grocery store without a mask on.

Idk if they are all independently owned or not, which could make a difference. The local a Wendy’s here is getting allocated, but had product. This may not accept a McDonalds who may have farmers who supply just to them.

 

[Valuist]

I would bet that is a fake pic. I've seen many pics from this rally from the left and they would have posted this.

It was a fake pic. Raiders posted the link. I guess the pic was real but it wasn't from the Michigan protest. It was from a Sanders rally. Had nothing to do with Michigan.

Wendy's uses fresh beef so they have immediate problems if supplies are disrupted. Mcdonalds and the others presumably could have huge amounts stored in freezers.

I remember hearing awhie back that Mcdonald's has its own supply system, but I just did a quick search and looks like they do buy from other suppliers. but don't they also make a weird beef slime? maybe they can adjust the forumula?

I guess they are just more nimble in these times

The pink slime is used for the McNuggets, idk about the beef products.

 

[Chi_Archie]

Oh yeah Fresh beef would be the difference

I didn't know they really use fresh "fresh" meat

The president is not well: The umpteenth reminders of Trump’s mental state and the consequences

 

[Valuist]

I was reading yesterday something out of the UK and the author is fairly certain there will NOT be a second wave in the fall or the winter. That is assuming the virus basically goes away over the summer. If it doesn't, then it doesn't matter because its still the same "wave". The reasoning is this: Spanish flu, H1N1 had second and even third waves. Those are FLU viruses. Covid19 is a coronavirus. SARS, MERS, Ebola and Zike were all coronaviruses and never had second waves.

Reports yesterday that the virus has mutated - they say it's now even more infectious, this was of course presented by the media as a negative. Supposedly the Sars virus had the same mutation and that led to it being far less deadly, and it's eventual disappearance.

LOL, it's strange having a one way lanes in Jewel.

Do people follow it, here they do not - granted most do, but there's always 2 or 3 going the "wrong" way.

Great article from SE, no question the president is becoming mentally unhinged, with each passing day he loses a little more brain matter, until one day he'll just have a complete meltdown

Gallup New Mexico

Electronic signs on about 90 mins out on I40 say Gallup NM no services.

Approaching Gallup they say Gallup NM closed.

They are cops at the bottom of the exit ramps at checkpoints to let locals in.

kane - you write for the National Enquirer?

How about that woman in Texas spending 7 days in the cling for not apologizing for opening her salon.

I was in Gallup late Dec 2018. Had a good session counting cards at the Fire Rock Casino. My CA bred dog didn't care for the altitude and bitter cold of late December in Gallup, however. I've heard that per person, it is one of the more violent and crime ridden towns. It seemed a bit run down, but I didn't feel unsafe.

But I guess the town revolved a lot around the casino and various strip clubs. I'm sure the area is hurting now.
