stephenthinkpad posted:Some funney from Ukraine. The Minister of Health evacuated a plane of Ukrainians from China, they didn't disclose where the plane is landing to avoid potential protest. People found out the landing city anyway and riot broke out. They blocked the road with trackers and trucks. She's neither a child or super old so unless she's a heavy smoker or something she doesn't have a whole lot to worry about so maybe she just didn't want to abandon her dog? his seems like an okay decision on her part.

Straight White Shark posted:"Elective surgery" includes a lot of medically useful and even necessary surgeries, it just means that it's not a medical emergency. Hernias, joint replacements, benign tumors, all elective. Yeah, I have surgery scheduled for just over a week from now that is technically 'elective' since it is to reattach a tendon and my arm mostly works in the meantime but it is time sensitive and if I don't have it done quickly I just have an arm that is only 80% forever so I'm really hoping we don't get to that point before the end of March.

Dreylad posted:I'd say, without any real certainty obviously, end of March is as late as you'd want to leave anything like that. The way cases are increasing exponentially it's gonna be a wild April and a grim May. It's as early as I could get it scheduled already and, possibly in a thing that is good luck, it's at a non hospital outpatient surgery place so I guess my main concern would be the surgeon or all the nurses in the facility being sick and having to postpone. The surgeon is traveling somewhere this week because his kids are on spring break though so he's definitely gonna be sick.

OhFunny posted:Cases in New Hampshire have risen to 13. I posted this on Friday but I have an 'elective' surgery scheduled for a week for today to fix a ruptured tendon and if I don't get it done by, we'll, next week, then my arm is never going to be back to 100% again so I really, really hope that doesn't become a thing everywhere.

It's obviously a major crisis that is negatively impacting many, yet there's a small part of me that is glad to see the world actually paying attention to other priorities for once. Naw because there is going to be a shitload of layoffs happening throughout this year even if things pick right back up again in a month. And things aren't going to pick right back up again in a month.

precision posted:Just wanna point out again that in many places, the closing of "restaurants" does not include fast food places, which on average handle 500% more money than casual or fine dining All the fast food type places that have my email from online ordering have all closed thier dining rooms and gone takeout or drive-thru only but I guess that's really a half measure if people sit around waiting for thier food and it's made by a guy with Corona who can't take the day off.

Gripweed posted:That is completely inaccurate. You knew the woman you were courting because most of the time it was set up between families. She was probably your neighbor. In fact, for an unmarried man to write letters to an unmarried woman was considered really inappropriate and potentially scandalous. There's a whole subculture on Twitter of 20 something women that just complain about their ex/current/future boyfriends being lovely and they get half a million likes every time. I don't get it but one person I follow likes a bunch of those tweets so Twitter keeps showing them to me.

Vernii posted:My company finally put a pandemic protocol into place when Trump declared a national emergency. Before that it was just "avoid being around sick people" but now its "work from home will be authorized once someone in the building tests positive." However, no one is being tested so basically that just means you'll never get to work from home.

bring back old gbs posted:And then any celebrity that wants a test can get one, and they're coming up positive like loving crazy. Because it's already spread everywhere, normal people just can't get tested properly yet. The upside of that, at least, is that it implies that it's asymptomatic for most people. Not that that helps at all for those who aren't.

My county has ICUs but the hospitals in town are already putting out requests for donations of PPE because they are running low even though they haven't had to treat anybody with COVID yet. Just the increased precautions are running them out of stock and they can't order more.
