Here's what happens when I try to read the linked article. Still wont let me read it after giving over the "keys to the castle".

I guess I get the gist of it.

The county I live in (Washington TN) went from 1 case to 9 cases in 6 days.

The US is now poised to pass Italy and possibly China in cases by this weekend.

The weather is beautiful and normally I would ride my bicycle on the local "Tweetsy Trail" after work.

However, I am fearful I would pass someone with the virus and end up getting infected. Maybe I will ride on the street again. It might be safer.
 
I wish FL would lock it down! schools out,work shut down.......
let’s go to the beach! People are morons......beaches are closed but they get here and play cat/mouse with the sheriffs dept, they run and hide when they see his truck coming then run right back out when he gets out of sight. Kindly makes ya think there should be a open season on tourists!
 
The US will almost definitely be top of the confirmed cases per region table tomorrow.
Worldwide the confirmed number of cases has doubled to over 500,000 in six days.
Confirmed case ratio to deaths is low so far for the US, at about 1.4%
Compare that to Italy where that ratio now stands at 10% That is what seems to happen as the medial infrastructure becomes overwhelmed. Hard to make assumptions, so here's a link to the data

Then she taught (re-taught) me Gin Rummy.

There's a lot of that going on around here.

I'm gonna fight this my way. With gin and rummy.

I'm beginning to see double. I think I'm cured.

@ thegimp When I drove upvalley a few days ago I was amazed and disheartened seeing the bike trail FILLED with riders not keeping adequate distance. I think you are wise to be cautious.

Napa went from 1 to 5 confirmed cases in about 2 days. That is even though getting tested has been very difficult due to the scarcity of test kits, even though they were supposed to deliver "millions" of kits last week!

You can't be too cautious when it comes to life or death decisions.
 
Kinsa is a web enabled thermometer and they have been quite accurate to pinpoint the next Cov19 hotspots by tracking sudden upticks in the temperatures it uploaded.

According to them Florida is next...

More details in the MedCram Coronavirus updates on youtube.

Problem is, I suspect a lot of those kids are from other areas. So they'll infect each other at the beach and then spread it to wherever they came from when they return. :skull:

5 students test positive.

May be Canada should station troops at the border to keep corona-infested Americans out?
Huh? You mean that's not happening? !@#$, I'm on my way to the border. Annie get yer gun!


Down there in the 'Land Of The Way Too Free' they're spreading this thing like peanut butter thinking the rest of the world is gonna follow suit. I've got news for their leader...up here authorities are exercising diligence using the data available to all. People here are complying with the prospect of being arrested, not shooed away. There's plenty of hind sight to go by already. The bygone days of US global leadership is just that, face it. It's never coming back, they blew it. They let that moron out of his cage only to discover he's a monster. Hindsight does indeed show the leadership role the US played right up until...you guessed it.:violin:
