Found this out early last night. Due to the 3 positive cases in the county yesterday the owner of the company I work for has closed everything down starting today for at least 2 weeks.

This coming week would have been really fun for the Heat.

A chance to sweep the season series vs the Bucks and TJ Warren vs Jimmy Butler part 2
and to quote a certain Seinfeld only the hardcore will remember....

"And now"?
"not"

How so? You don't think there will be another new virus every few years? Seems plausible

I do hope China now bans their 'wet markets' with all those exotic animals packed in with all those people. That might help.
Really scary is the world knows a virus that kills a very small % of people can shut down our country.

Going to try and stock up tomorrow. Have 2 stores close to me (trying to avoid walmart). Need some canned foods, bread, frozen dinners, and stack up on almond milk.

This shit getting serious fast.

It was all good just a week ago.

Here it was OK mid-week (other than toiletries and sanitizer/bleach), but shit hit the fan on Friday when the county started taking steps to close the schools indefinitely. Hardly any canned goods on the shelves as of Friday afternoon, bread was going quick, meat tough to get, eggs were gone, etc (didn't try the stores over the weekend). Looks like restaurants/bars/theaters are all getting shut down today (other than take-out/delivery).

We had been case free until this past week. Of course, one of the cases had to work at a local school and went to work for two days with full symptoms. Can't fix stupid, I guess. This morning, 8 more cases, with several related to that school case.

This is fucking insane. Some dumb bitch named Ava Loiuse that calls herself a social influencer is doing something really dumb. Here's a pic of her licking an airplane toilet.

Some of her off the wall comments.

"please RT this is so people can know how to properly be sanitary on the airplane"

"what's not gunna make people sad is a hot rich blonde 20-someting-year-old licking a toilet"

"it's not like the virus can kill me anyway because I don't use facebook"

:wtf2:

Apparently a Coronavirus challenge is becoming a thing. Forget Coronavirus, this dumb twat's about to get hepatitis, amongst other diseases.


...

I got nothing.

Honest question here, why didn’t the H1N1 scare have this affect on things?

Very low mortality rate (0.02%) and wasn't transmitted as easily. People still got infected but it moved at a pace where medical systems could still keep up relatively well.

Surely the powers that be will atart figuring this out at some point but the stage is ripe for a classic game of the week. I’m not talking having old games on espn classic ad nauseum, I’m talking about picking a true classic game and advertise it throughout the week and stuff like back in the day. Any tv execs out there you can have that for free.

Didn't get passed on as easily I think

Killed a lot more people though. It had killed 1,000 before Obama declared it a national emergency.

Trump declared this one a national emergency after 41.

I think you're right about it spreading more quickly and that's probably why Trump declared after so few deaths.

It may not necessarily spread faster in the sense that it's easier to catch. But more because people can walk around with it for 5 or 6 days infecting others before they start showing symptoms, if they ever start showing symptoms.

If memory serves, H1N1 had something like a 48 hour incubation period, so someone with the coronavirus is likely to infect a lot more people.

Did you call him a pussy and tell him you're going in anyway?

Would've been awesome if the plane hit some major turbulence while she was licking that toilet seat.

I can see wiggy breaking into Browns Stadium & posting a vidoe of himself licking all the toilets to prove how clean the place is.
