Facebook Aunt posted:Probably not going to do it though. Turning off the economy for 2 years is incomprehensible. I'm finding it hard to stop thinking about this aspect of it, and it's for selfish reasons basically, but it's the uncertainty of so is there just going to be any point in trying to live for the next two years? Which is over-dramatic, but I think governments need to get a solid plan and timescale out - a real one, not some bullshit about oh we'll lockdown for 2 weeks, when everyone knows that isn't all that needs to happen - so that people can start planning their lives around something again, even if that something is poo poo, it's better than sustained uncertainty about basic daily life. I'm just thinking how everyone's quality of life is about to go down to a point where behaviour could become unpredictable and maybe pretty drastic. I'm thinking are suicide rates just going to explode? Cos a lot of people, including me, weren't doing that well BEFORE any of this for other reasons which this society shutdown makes so much worse. Stuff like that. loving bonkers, man. I'm fried.

Facebook Aunt posted:Get to walmart before the preppers buy up all the tents! Once our household gets sick we'll probably stick to each person having their own utensils and plates but for now the safest thing to do is not only to thoroughly wash stuff in the sink and then have the dishwasher scour that poo poo even more. Or at least I assume so, considering eating and drinking seems like a fast way to spread some droplets around.

My local safeway ran out of hand wipes for the carts so they had a spray bottle of sanitizer chained to the wall and a giant roll of thin paper. The paper got stolen.

We can assure you we are neither xenophobic nor racist. It was meant towards Xi Jingping and the ruling party rather than Chinese people as a whole. We can all agree on Xi Jinping's downfalls as a ruler. The Chinese as a people are extremely resilient and handled the crisis with the utmost care and precision. The phrase has since been taken down and nothing like this will happen again.

The grim reality will be that letting 4 million olds die will be less of a body count than hundreds of millions from societal collapse If this doesn't burn out in a month or so then control will become moot and it's either mass death trying to keep people locked down or let the 1 percent fatality rate do it's thing and back to normal imo

Noblesse Obliged posted:The grim reality will be that letting 4 million olds die will be less of a body count than hundreds of millions from societal collapse Yeah a Star Trek TNG post scarcity utopia might be able to handle shutting down everything and having everyone live and work in isolation, maybe, but we can't. Not entirely sure even TNG could handle it for 18 months though, humans would start to go crazy before long. Like the assisted living facility my mom lives in has put heavy restrictions on visitors, and it's real hard on the perpetually socially isolated old folks who barely got duty visits before. The residents are also being asked not to leave the property, and all programs and social activities (except meals) have been canceled. Don't go shopping. Don't go for walks. How many months or years of that can people endure before they feel like they have nothing to live for?

https://time.com/5805953/home-covid-19-test-everlywell/ Choo choo here comes the capitalism train all aboard! I'm kind of surprised it's as cheap as it is. edit: LanceHunter posted:I would be careful trusting this company. As a friend of mine of FB who has worked with them put it: "I wouldn't trust anything these guys put out. It will be an LDT from a third party lab. The test itself will not be FDA cleared. They have (up until now) existed on the periphery of legality by testing for nutritional issues and peripheral health issues as opposed to actual diagnostically relevant testing. They keep prices low by contracting with third party, fly-by-night labs, and distance themselves from actual liability. There is a reason they are cheap and accessible."

Duck and Cover posted:https://time.com/5805953/home-covid-19-test-everlywell/ Yeah, $135 test kit is surprisingly reasonable. Obviously it would be better if the government was conducting (free) testing on every possible case, but since that isn't happening a cheap mail in test is something, at least. Some folks are just mildly curious if their cold is covid. Some are barely ill but looking for "I survived Covid-19!" bragging rights. Some may be in the awful situation where they don't qualify for government testing, but require a positive test result to receive particular benefits.

The virus will just keep circulating and pushing the bounds of our health care system (lol) & killing people until there's a vaccine. Our system just isn't set up to handle this for very long at all.

My mom works with developmentally disabled adults. She drives around to them and helps them with chores and drives them where they need to go. She told me today that she's going to take "the twins" to their volunteering which is kind of enriching and they apparently love doing it. Something involving those pyramid puzzles with the pegs. My mind was kind of a red haze at that point. Every protestation fell on deaf ears. She's an adult, etc. I should stop following the news so closely. All I can say is thank God the PA governor closed all non-essential businesses. She probably still needs to do the rounds, but hopefully she can keep the grocery store trips to a minimum.
