lol on the phone with my mom back home in puerto rico and she mentioned that there was a huge backup of cars in her street. She had no idea what it was and later found out that the catholic church was doing a drive through communion service.

so we're getting 20k to 35k new cases daily

and 2000 to 3000 deaths daily

this is roughly a 10% kill rate :q:

so apparently a lot of the hospitals in Harris county are mega pissed at the governor. And there are rumblings in some of the surrounding counties as well. Since the state usurped local/county orders, a few hospital administrations are trying to get the mayor to tell the state to gently caress off. Anyways should be fun since this kind of stuff is happening:

I don't want to be sick anymore. It's now hard to breathe and once I start coughing I almost puke it gets so violent. My stupid test was negative so if I don't have it then what's wrong with me? My doctor said something about other viruses they're seeing that are, and I quote, "not the flu but just as bad as covid-19" but WTF is that supposed to mean? Like? WTF? She also said she's not convinced I don't have it. What's the point of a test if it's not totally valid? Why would they put that on the market? I'm afraid to call her because I don't want to upset my husband who started to get angry with me yesterday for still being sick and all whiny and I get it, I was being pathetic and I guess he's going to say this is my normal asthma or something but that hasn't given me issues in a little bit. I'm scared and don't really have anywhere to turn. This is all bullshit

Echoing that you don't deserve to be yelled at for being sick and you're not pathetic being sick.

A couple things: Trouble breathing and violent, puke-coughing are big red warning signs others with covid have reported so please call your doc and/or consider going to the ER. Also, the covid tests will give false positive results so you could have it but the test didn't pick it up.

They said it isn’t costing us anything additional because they have to get a minimum number of flight hours anyway so they’re doing this instead of what they usually do. It kinda feels like it’s just a trap to get people to go outside to congregate and get the roni though.

tbh i think that in a meta-analysis of several of these types of studies it's been shown to basically be just random, which isn't any better. there definitely were some bullshit studies by conservative orgs in the late 80's and early 90's that claimed to show that prayer was effective, but they were all later completely discredited. evangelical nutballs still cite them to this day, tho
Of course it’s random. These studies line up with studies on healing and “positive thinking”. Believing in a deity or energy or optimism doesn’t impact healing one way or the other. Which is kinda lame since people tell you relentlessly when you’re sick to stay positive and think good thoughts and they’re praying for you and it’d be cool if it helped.

If you compare the deaths from COVID to 9/11 and the ensuing wars just think of all of the spending the government is going to do in the next decade to enrich everyone's lives.

Bukacek, age 62, has been a well-known figure in Montana for more than a decade. She lives in the city of Kalispell but is known across the state for carrying plastic fetuses with her as props in her capacity as the president of the Montana Pro-Life Coalition. She was investigated (but not prosecuted) for Medicaid fraud in 2009, following allegations she had billed for time spent praying with patients. (At the time, Bukacek said she had been unfairly targeted because of her anti-abortion activism). Bukacek, who remains firmly opposed to what she calls “Obamacare,” no longer has admitting privileges at the area hospital, Kalispell Regional Healthcare. But as the head of a private “concierge” practice called Hosanna Health.

We’re driving down into Rostraver PA on Rt 51 today to do some trail riding and we just passed a roadside bbq/ice cream place. Packed to the tits. So many cars I thought it was a dealership storage lot at first. Piles of people in line and congregating at tables. No distancing at all. Good god.
