We've completed enough tests for <1% of the population, and that doesn't include the fact that those that have it will receive multiple tests to make sure they've recovered.
But, yeah, more tests than anyone, the most tests, the best tests. Tremendous testing!

Saw something yesterday that in S. Korea, 30 or 40 people who had the virus and recovered, have now tested positive again.
Whether they have got it again, or were never virus-free in the first place, not sure.
But, we're gonna have the economy back up and running by May.

When I visited Wasilla, I was pleasantly surprised that not only did most people not start eating their shirt while talking to us, they actually quite hated the Palins.

Testing positive <> Getting sick
If it does... Yikes! (Maybe)

Florida will at least be an experiment to measure
“ GOP Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signaled that there was still a possibility that schools in his state could reopen in May, after closing for the coronavirus outbreak, because "for whatever reason it just doesn't seem to threaten, you know, kids."
According to the CDC, four people between the ages of 15 and 24 and one person younger than 5 has died from the virus.”

Already insane, UAA making it worse
The Palins, like most white trash families, are hated by most Alaskan’s.
Also, Alaska has closed schools for the rest of the school year.

Re: COVID-19 The 7th Part: We're Gonna Be Number One Soon!
I had a conversation about the car accident comparison with one of my members who was one of the early deniers of coronavirus. Perhaps some concepts are lost on people in Wisconsin since this state seems to care a lot less about the problems of impaired driving than any other state I've lived in.
I had to explain that for various reasons if we had the same cavalier attitude about car accidents that trump had about coronavirus, 150,000 people a year would die in car accidents, and instead it is fewer than 35,000 a year nowadays. We focused on first getting more people to wear seat belts. Then we focused on getting impaired drivers off the road. Then we began to see cars being made safer for occupants. Now we see more and more safety features either required or provided and we've rethought how we allow teenagers to become drivers.
40 years after the automobile became a ubiquitous part of almost every American family, nearly 6 people were still dying for every million vehicle miles traveled. In 1990 it was down to 2 people dying for every million miles and now it is just over 1.
Even with our fvcked up medical infrastructure we had the ability to prevent a good number of the deaths from COVID-19 had we just adopted a few measures that every doctor knew would help in the entire country on March 1 instead of having some places only fall into line much later (or not at all).
Joe Biden is literally running against a mass murderer and I want him to make this political. Lives are actually hanging in the balance. The doctors and the scientists can take care of the medical parts of this and the politicians have to care care of the politics part. There are reasons more people are dying than we could have easily prevented and those reasons are called republicans. They need to be eliminated every bit as much as the coronavirus itself. It IS about the politics and I'm pretty sick of those making the argument the time for politics comes later. We've been hearing that garbage for years, such as every time another nut with a gun kills a dozen kids, or church service attendees, or movie goers, and it never seems to come. When are we going to say enough is enough?

Well yeah, there's lots of people walking around who have tested positive( or would if they were being tested) and aren't sick. Your administration says its perfectly ok for them to be out and about and working. Infecting other people the whole time.
What a great administration. The best people. They're gonna kill us all.

I have a ton of relatives living in Fla (I was born in Jacksonville myself) most are at least my age or older. (60 plus) They are scared to death of this. How ridiculous for DeSantis to think he can open schools. Been in a school lately? How the hel can you social distance there. How can a teacher with possible risk factors for respiratory infections, COPD, etc wear a MASK to teach? Plus, schools in Fla get out in mid May so what is the FREAKING point. He is so clueless... we are all holding our collective breaths that our family down there survive this. What a nightmare this has turned out to be. Shameful and I'll say it again, criminal how we handled this from the get go. Nothing to do but back peddle. Try to catch up. Sorry for the rant...please, stay safe. Stay home. Wear a mask when you're out. You know the drill...

On that note, someone like Charlie Baker is the kind of Republican I can get behind. I think he's done a good job here in MA and isn't a Trump lapdog.

He wants the federal student per diem money, and show that this virus is all still a hoax that only affects the olds. And if Florida is known for anything at all, it’s the youthful slant of its population...

Nationally (everyone polled combined), only 37% of all Americans trust what our President of the United States has to say regarding Coronavirus.
Among Republicans?
They trust him more than they trust the CDC.

Are the cis okay?
Re: COVID-19 The 7th Part: We're Gonna Be Number One Soon!
I'm going to be nauseous. My company is giving incentives to BCs (one level above me) to pressure families to come back and receive services right now.
And here's the thing: BCs can join us via Zoom. I can't Zoom with my client. My company is sacrificing kids and us techs on the altar of capitalism.

You’ll be fine. Unless there is further clarification stories are trying to sort through, Meijer had a grand total of 2.5 aisles blocked off, and two of those were seasonal for patio furniture.
