What percentage of jobs in the US are even possible to work from home? Like you need workers on site for the service sector, healthcare, and industrial work.

Also my mom and in laws are all coming to my kids bday party tomorrow. Rip mom The best part is this job is entirely on computers and could be done remotely but the company doesn't want anyone to do that. Also we have shared keys for the bathrooms. Delightful!

My job is 100% possible and trivial to do from home but you're not allowed to. I've been sending corona virus maps to my boss but I'm not getting any traction.

TOOT BOOT posted:So what's happening in China lately? Are they actually getting over it or just hiding the extent of it now or ??? Honestly, China is likely recovering due to the strict lockdown. They've likely decreased their r0 significantly. That being said, I absolutely believe if they start opening up shop it's going to pop right back off. They haven't developed herd immunity. The vaccine is still a year out.

Agronox posted:I got to sit in on a presentation by a hospital group earlier today. One of the things the presenting doctor went over was testing. I tried to get this as best I can but forgive me if my notes are a little off. numbers 2 and 3 requires hospitalization full criteria here: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/clinical-criteria.html Was updated yesterday 6pm to add #3 before it was only 1 and 2. Wiggly Wayne DDS posted:the cdc live call update was earlier today and had a few nuggets hidden in the q&a (call starts 20m in): https://youtu.be/6jpOXxMCRUc?t=1195 That was a poo poo show. They are clearly misleading people about testing. 1.) as you point out they say the call from Sacremento was first received on Sunday the 23rd. Which is in dispute what the docs, and goon have said in Sacremento. 2.) They say they rely heavily on 'astute' clinitians and would never turn people away from a test and have not refused even one test. This is clearly false since its kind of crazy to imagine that in the whole country over a month there wasn't one idiot calling the CDC wanting a frivolous test, or even a naive doctor who needed the criteria clarified. Further false since you got a case in NY where the doc was so adamant about the test they told the guy to self quarantine. If that's real the CDC is flat out lying hard. 3) the reporters were focused on testing, but didn't push very hard. Maybe that's because they can't get back for follow up questions bit disappointing. 4) They expect 6 state testing facilities to be up and running today with the rest a goal of the rest of the states coming online by end of next week. No specific details on what states currently or what the extent of testing is. 5) CDC are sending out a new version of the testing kit with 2 regents vs the multi-reagent kits they had been sending out before which had a problem that invalidated some of the kits. They are saying now that all the old tests can be used still, but there was something about accuracy which I didn't catch. It really feels like they are downplaying things and they moved very fast past the Sacramento call situation. Literally was 'Our records show the fist call was 23rd' and they moved on immediately.

Vishass posted:It didn't just start. Iran has been sitting on it for weeks. Canadian epidemiologists figure there's 18,000+ infected and Iran has been keeping it quiet since early Feb or so I suspect there are a lot of infections in Pakistan and they're just not testing anyone, kinda like the US.

Limerick posted:I suspect there are a lot of infections in Pakistan and they're just not testing anyone, kinda like the US. It's kinda bizarre hearing how extremely effective this tactic is. People at work today: "This is a joke, People are stupid, There are only 50 people with it in America! There hasn't even been a new case in weeks!" Me: " New york?" Them: "One person? Doesn't matter." Talk Radio: "This is nuts. The vaccines look promising. There are only 50 cases in the US. This is a hoax" I'm not going to go full Prester Jane here and claim that hordes of devolved humans are tearing the countryside asunder or anything but it's pretty easy to understand that the central idea of all of this denial is the number of cases and that number is objectively not accurate.

Indonesia is the 4th most populous country in the world, has 0 confirmed cases of coronavirus, and their one suspected case was ruled swine flu (after the man died). It's everywhere and no one even knows.

I live in middle Georgia and asked a cashier (White, 50ish) and manager (Black, 40ish) both women about Cornavirus while getting some things at Publix. me: Are you guys worried? manager: oh yes very this is scary! cashier: *weird look as if I'm part of the deep state* me: What if they announced like two or three hundred cases in us before next Friday both: *terrified look* manager: that would be terrifying cashier: *look signifying it's clear i'm part of deep state* manager: they are running out of tests!!! Everyone I talk to over 40 is terrified, and everyone who is likely to be a conservative thinks its' all bullshit despite being scared and even acknowledging how hosed the US response is. so there is some original content for you all.
