Yeah like almost 18 times worse 

See my above comment. It was a reference to the blizzards that don’t produce. Larry incorrectly interpreted

Larry - you completely missed the point. That blizzard showed up. So it’s not relevant. The ones where they say 15” is coming and 1” comes. Mathematically that’s 1/15. So if 150K people die instead of 2.2M, that’s 1/15 also. Simple Math brother

OK, so if ONLY 150,000 people die instead of 2,200,000 people we'll just compare it to a blizzard that didn't show.  A good thing, right? 

Arrowhead Stadium has a capacity of 76,000 people........fill it twice, that's what were talking about.  Hopefully we only fill it full once, maybe not even a sell out, just 60,000 people will die. 

Big deal, just a little snow storm.

I find the blizzard analogy to be way off base. This thing isn't nearly what it could have been because of the preventative measures being taken. (And it's still devastating) It would be like doing something to the blizzard to make less snow fall

I read an article last night that auto manufacturers are considering a plan. They want to do forehead scan screening upon entry into the building and make masks mandatory.  It was nothing official ,just something mentioned.

we are doing a version of this, but we're open anyhow as an essential business.

My daughter works as a CNA and has been working with Covid patients. Now she is home with a fever and dry cough. Doctors said they have to see how bad her symptoms are before she can be tested. Smh. Also, she has a 1 y/o daughter at home.

If she says she's having difficulty breathing, rush her to the ER pronto!

She said she does. The docs are not sure if they are gonna test her. WTF

There's operating as if every medical professional should just assume they have it.  It's just how bad it gets before they treat them.  She should proceed as if she is positive.

[squirrelwhisperer]

Ok, as usual, my wife has trouble conveying a clear thought. My daughter is going to the doc so they can see how bad she is to determine if they are gonna test her. Thanks babe for your ever present clarity. Am I the only one that needs a wife dictionary?? I swear she thinks I am a mind reader.

Just did the same but white gloves not fancy purple ones. 

Had the oil changed in my car and stayed in it the entire time riding the lift up. Fun. 

Haven’t been to a grocery store in a few weeks. They now have directional arrows on the aisles - one way only. Still no paper products, cleaning supplies, pasta, flour, yeast, etc. Plenty of everything else. 

Amazed that there were a good 30% of shoppers without masks including many older people. 

Has anyone come up with a decent grocery disinfectant protocol? I’m spraying and wiping with a bleach disinfectant then letting things sit for 24 hours. Discarding extra packaging. Then I shower and change. This will get tiring if we have to keep it up for months.

I found local bjs had flour. I didn’t need much more so didn’t look for anything else.  Left everything in the car for 24 hours. Used gloves to finally transfer into the house.  Gloves in the trash, hands washed. No change clothes or shower.

I spray disinfectant on a paper towel and wipe things down.  24 hours is excessive.  I read somewhere 10 minutes is sufficient.  I wait 10-15 minutes then rinse them off with water.  Paper boxed items like pasta, I spray with the aerosol can.

[Elmo]

Also fortunate that wife works for hospital (gloves and surgical mask) and brother works for homeland security (N95).  Was able to get us a few of them when supplies was starting to go down but not completely out.

Putting away? It’s called summer-izing
