And even if it is that bad we can’t shut everything down because the economy and we don’t have enough money to bail everyone out.

Mnuchin is already telegraphing a bailout for airlines and hotels
Here are a few more surprising digits. The 58 tests conducted represented 60 percent of Oklahoma’s peak daily capacity.
“We have the capacity to run about 100 tests a day,” said Cox. While the state is in the process of “reordering additional reagents,” as of now, they can perform 300 tests. Meaning: the Utah Jazz alone consumed 20 percent of Oklahoma’s total stock. Cox added that two private facilities capable of testing for COVID-19 were ready to go or would be up and running “soon,” he said. (The Department of Health did not respond to multiple requests for comment.)
Is the Daily Beast reputable? I’m trying to be extra careful from now on.
I can see airlines and hotels as being essential industries that the government has an interest in sustaining, but I am absolutely going to lose my shit when they bail out cruise lines.
Especially when they’re probably all based elsewhere for tax purposes.
I don’t buy for one second that masks don’t help.
Yes there are different kinds of masks and some are pretty worthless. And they aren’t a cure all, but they have to help if used properly.
Airlines can absolutely continue operating through bankruptcy (it’s happened a million times before). Let the shareholders and bond holders bear the losses.
They for sure help. Stories all the time of people who get infected and aren’t quarantined or self isolated for days. It would be much better for everyone if the days before they are quarantined they wore a mask.
We have a new winner for most optimistic re-opening date. Keystone says it is closing the slopes for a week.
At least one infectious disease doc recommended masks solely to physically prevent you from touching your face.
Can Trump shut down the internet? I think we saw from Black Friday the feds can seize every US domain whenever they want.
I could see him shutting down the internet except for disaster approved news, and texting us hourly.
And Mexico won’t let us in.
They can’t spend their food stamps if nothing to purchase! Tapsideofhead.gif
Watching Bill Maher give his monologue to a laugh track is surreal
So, uh, if anybody being screened has high fever and is asked to self-quarantine are they gonna ask everyone else in that terminal to self-quarantine? Because if one person in that crowd has it then a lot of people in that crowd will soon have it.
I watched Daily Show and Colbert - both must be laugh tracks right?
So weird to see them looking around like they’re seeing people. Maybe they have producers in the crowd like Kimmel did?
These are phenomenal visual representations of the effectiveness of quarantines/social distancing. Thanks for sharing!
I think we’re past self-quarantine for anyone w/o symptoms.
Almost positive the network shows last night were tapes.
The last Colbert show just had its staff in the audience. It’ll be going dark for a while.
Fuck. I need Colbert right now.
There’s a good opportunity for some these guys to step up and give us daily corona content in some form. We need the Walter Cronkite of corona. Someone you can trust.
