Optismistic post.

Washington and CA seem to have had success with bending their curves. Texas does not have a widespread epidemic right now and growth of confirmed cases and atypical are not exponential.

NYC, NOLA, Detroit and Florida seem hosed though.

The good news is it seems like quarantines work, but on a 3 week lag - April will suck, but it will get better.

No. Bird flu was mostly a punchline and something everyone laughed at as a media hype. I don’t remember anyone who took it seriously

H1N1 was swine flu not bird flu and was a big deal. The mortality rate was very low though, so there was no need to shut it all down because the risk of millions dying and overwhelming the medical system was low.

I just want to be the friendly primary care doc who spends his time actually explaining things to his patients and encourages healthier lifestyles and medication adherence to reduce hospitalizations down the line. Like my favorite appointments are after a patient either went to the hospital or saw a specialist and have no idea what is going on. I translate it all for them and take the time to explain why this new medication will help them.

Now all I do is send people either to get tubed or go home with supplemental O2.

I was a better doctor before all this. I want to be that doctor when we're past all this.

How did you get roped in from being a PCP to a ICU hospitalist?

i stop obsessing over news for one day and Abbott announces he's sending people back to work. loving moron

Eh, not really.

He opened state parks but said you have to wear a mask and observe social distancing, rescinded order canceling elective medical procedures, and allows for "curbside retail" whatever the gently caress that is.

The whole thing is a charade meant to placate big daddy Trump while actually not changing much at all.

Barack Obama tried to murder me and hundreds of other Wisconsin goons for political gain

I mean yeah, but not sure what it means for the types of retail places that are closed.

Big box stores, hardware stores, grocery stores, pharmacies etc... are all open still.

Places like Macy's are closed, but who would do the curbside thing instead of online for that?

It is a nonsense order that is meant to maintain the social distancing orders put in place by the large cities and counties (all Dem) but allows Fox to have TEXAS IS OPENING headlines.

Abbott, despite being a gigantic rear end in a top hat, is not an idiot - he is trying to placate his base full of idiots and avoid a primary challenge from his talk radio host Lt Governor.

All of these things are true:

1) Scrubs is good and funny and rewatchable
2) Ben Carson is a dumb CHUD outside of his narrow field
3) Ben Carson is a way better choice than Kushner for being in charge of a Coronavirus task force
4) Out of Trumps cabinet of morons, Carson is quietly doing the best job of anyone. I work with HUD regularly on affordable housing stuff and our chokepoint is not HUD, but local governments run by ostensible Democrats.

Little kids go loving bonkers for trains. I live a few blocks from a busy cargo track and have to take my kid to watch a train every time he hears it. I enjoy it, the UP conductors are nice and wave to the toddler, and its cool to see the enormous cargo trains coming through a major a city.

it’s because yes their is a significant toll to closing things down but we are majority idiots with a giant wet rear end baby in charge so the public dialogue is “lockdown = libs” and “open er up = lib tears” as opposed to any sort of meaningful action that will try and resolve the problems at hand in a 21st century way

Opening up won't change anything for them. Schools are still closed, just means their parents have to go to whatever job and will risk bringing COVID home to those already overburdened and traumatized children.
