COVID-19 (2): Turns out it's going to be pretty bad actually

Meanwhile in California

but also

I ordered out for dinner for the first time in over 6 weeks. I think I ate too much.

Those numbers alone donā€™t tell the tale. There are democrats even in the reddest of red counties. They skew to minorities and they skew to the poor. Those are the people that are getting hit the worst by this. There are plenty of white democrats even in places like Alabama and Tennessee.

I tried to read the fight club book when i was in high school because i loved the film. i remember giving up pretty fast. i vaguely remember Jack being on an island or something? although, i have read other CP books that were really good.

I cooked dinner for like the 60th straight day (surely a personal best by a long mile) and I also ate too much and feel sick.

iā€™m guessing that with a lot of these ā€œessentialā€ jobs that there is a big room for salary increase while letting the company remain profitable.

Strange, I always lumped him with Irvine Welsh as a guy who never equalled his debut.

i was like 16 at the time so def could have gotten it wrong.

What is the best way to get a couple masks? Iā€™ve only had human contact once in the last six weeks so I havenā€™t bothered but I need to resupply. Amazon really needs an ā€œin stock nowā€ filter.

Iā€™ve grown sick of my own cooking and was prepared to starve to death bc I couldnā€™t be bothered anymore when a box of meals from Fresh Direct showed up at my front door today.

Turns out that my sister who I must have told, was not on board with my plan and sent me this little gift. Thereā€™s nothing special or anything spectacularly different about them, but itā€™s the thought that counts.

Dallas County cases, hospitalizations and deaths all up sharply days before Texas Governor forces things to reopen.

Yea, without looking at the numbers Iā€™d think the simple fact that >60% or whatever of deaths are people over 60 would have this thing killing more republicans

It can be very racist but you donā€™t have to hang out with those people.

More people in NYC than anywhere else tho. Also very heavily minority population in NYC.

(Itā€™s like 95% people over 60)

And New Orleans and Detroit

COVID has obviously affected minority populations disproportionately. Probably more Democrats have died due to it than Republicans,

If those numbers are accurate then there is very little room for errors regarding social distancing measures.

Agree. R is all about how many bodies the virus can get into. The less a host interacts with others the less it can spread. Add on that repeated and heaving dosing with Cv seems to impact severity, artificially lowering the R in communities and frequency of exposure in individuals should reduce spread and severity.

Now would someone please tell us exactly how good masks are. (I know the data is coming but Iā€™m impatient, states are opening apparently we canā€™t just mandate the things everywhere though Iā€™m glad I live in a state that is for shopping at least- Mike pence you cannot shop at motherfucking Wegmans)!

You know whatā€™s bugging me? Theyā€™re still selling lottery tickets.
