It's wishful thinking at this point, but I wonder if the uncommonly nasty respiratory infection I had back in late November - early December was early COVID. It's borderline plausible because I live in a city with a major international airport and a huge Chinese immigrant community (so lots of potential travel from China). I feel like we'd be getting hit a lot harder locally now if that were the case, though. It's impossible to know until an antibody test is developed. Currently, I'm self-isolating due to a sore throat and mild cough and unable to get tested.

OMGVBFLOL posted:there are people who have fought their whole careers to remove science from the decision-making process in government, sabotage scientific literacy, and set in place and reinforce, purely for the sake of consolidating their own power, all of the social and economic factors that contributed to this epidemic, and are now unironically saying workers should go back to work and die at their posts, again purely for the sake of their own power, even though they are themselves at the absolute least level of risk it is possible for a person to be living with right now. OP's parents did all that? More likely they're just an old couple confused by all the misinformation flying around. They might even be part of the problem depending on how much they've evangelised their misguided point of view. Doesn't mean it's not gross to tell their child, who doesn't even share their views, that you hope their parents die. Wafflecopper fucked around with this message at 23:46 on Mar 27, 2020 |

It is gonna get "Italy Bad" no later than Tuesday. The question is, how far behind NY is your town, and have they started practicing social distancing. If you made it to this point without any of you or your family getting sick, congratulations, you've completed the tutorial. Press A to continue to Level 1. If you still have your facemask from the beginning of the tutorial, you may keep it in your inventory for Level 1. Level 1's goal is to survive until June 15. Level 2 begins June 16. If you survive to Level 2 you get a bonus face mask.

So one of my coworkers has been in and out of the hospital with pneumonia. They are testing for corona. If it's positive i wonder if we will have to shut down our clinic. I guess it's up to the public health department? Anyway i still haven't gotten sick but like half of our staff is out sick this week. Unknown if this is corona but we have had quite a few cases in my area. Yesterday was kinda rough at work. Just not enough staff. Today has been busy but we had enough people thankfully. But it's been the same people working all week and they have to be tired.

He's apparently really good friends with this guy, who got arrested for licking stuff at Walmart and putting it on tick-tock. Everyone on Facebook is telling my brother that that dude was a moron, and my brother had taken to calling all of us idiots and criminals and "it was just a prank!" I've never seen him this angry before in my life. Tell your brother that guy got precisely what he deserved, and that your brother is a loving shithead for associating with that clear defect of meat.

Funk In Shoe posted:We're having a fun time in the Funk in Shoe household. 3 weeks ago both kids came down with fevers, vomiting and coughs but shook it off in a week or so. We've sort of semi-joked that they'd probably had corona. I had a couple of days right after with headaches and mild body aches but nothing dramatic. My wife, up until yesterday, have had no symptoms. You can call me a monster, but if I were you I'd set my wife up with a mask and try to take a lot of cough suppressant. Mammograms don't take that long. I'll be rooting for you.

frogge posted:How did the older generations deal with the constant threat of nuclear exchange at any moment? For real. The risk was rarely urgent, and most people could put it away as 'this is not going to happen because it is too absurd'. I was born in 1955, NL, so I came after the most risky period, but I have never met people that were really afraid, except maybe some nutcases. The hate against communism came from over the Atlantic, but here, much closer to the front line, people were not too worried. There were still quite a lot of contacts between East and West here. 20 kilometres East of where I live some villages had democratically elected Communist councils.

Alberta Parks have closed all the provincial parks to vehicles now too, so of course cue a ton of bitching from entitled white city folk all over again but doubly so now that there's nowhere "nice" left to go. At least for every comment complaining about it on social media posts, there's a bunch of people responding in all caps that they should be staying the gently caress home.

Work Update: We are in a deep south state that refuses to shut down but the owner of our company left the work from home policy up to each department's management. Fast forward to 55 people working from home for the past two weeks, while 5 of us are forced to come in. We are basically sweeping floors because the boss in charge of us has said that this is a Democrat Hoax and forcing his department to continue as usual seems to be his way of making a statement against all of the panicking millennials. Today, he was telling us that the virus only infects people that let it infect them (the body has a way to shut that whole thing down) and then he was mad that the owners aren't forcing everyone to come back to work Monday. My county is now "Shelter In Place" so I don't know if i'll get fired if i try to not go sweep floors to own the libs or something.
