Its definitely a odd picture. Kind of cool she has the elevator right to her apartment, though that kind of freak me out every time it passed my apartment wondering if it would stop and open.

It's very odd and a little over the top if you ask me.

Oh GTFO w/ your pissy ass attitude. Did I say anything about being " an arousing" picture?? Nope. It's not arousing at all. Stop putting words in my mouth and read what I said. I certainly don't see any sick person laying on their couch like that... SMH... I was sick about a month ago and certainly wasn't laying around like that.

I like Chris and enjoy listening to him. He seems like a straight shooter. But it's tv and tv is all about ratings. I do believe he has the virus. But like w/ Baldwin, some of it is a little over the top.

New autopsy results show two Californians died of coronavirus in early and mid-February -- up to three weeks before the previously known first US death from the virus.


Doctors try to untangle why they're seeing 'unprecedented' blood clotting among Covid-19 patients

These deaths now stand as the country's earliest two attributed to the novel coronavirus, a development that may change the understanding of how early the virus was spreading in the country, health experts told CNN Wednesday.


This is the most important information to date about how the disease was here in the US. Feb 6th death is 3 weeks prior to previous first known. 3 fucking weeks...3...that is a massive difference. So infections were what mid-late January? Combined this with the Santa Clara county tests from last week, this stuff was moving up and down the west coast and the numbers will never truly be accurate. We got to view it real time in NYC and other hotspots....

So the expectations would be California and Washington State would have experienced this first wave in late Feb and Early-Mid March? What were the hospital numbers then? Wouldn't we expect bigger news about being overwhelmed there? the West coast was still holding Major massive events, , marathons, comic con, etc. San Fran, LA, Seattle, Portland...relatively dense pockets there...the social distance orders weren't in place, schools were in session, etc.

This is why testing is so critical, if we're really talking about a fatality rate comparable to the flu WTF are we doing all hunkering down

California and Washington State is first places where the infection spread, if we are finding Feb 6th as the first death, do we honestly believe there aren't others prior?

And again....if the spread was happening, why wasn't there red flags or hospitals that were overwhelmed? If there was not any business interruption in everyday life...then the medical community were taking an "uptick" in flu and pneumonia in stride. What is on the death certificates of the first 2 deaths, influenza?

Resetting a timeline 3 weeks early as first death is game changing....this is where the investigative reporting should be focus. This is massive news.


Here in Richmond, I personally know a older guy and his son a 50 years old man died at home from the flu on my birthday, January 31st. It really makes you think...

I shouldn't said "fake" I am just done with this virus.

I believe the social distancing was more effective then previously thought. Now its juts become a pissing match between left and right as to what to do next.

I see people giving less and less of a shit;in my neighborhood last weekend it was business as usually pretty much. folks out talking kids playing together where just a few weeks earlier everyone was huddle down like it was The Secret of NIMH and the tractor was about to run over our rat hole.

Its def not a hoax...see NYC and surrounding, Northern Italy, Iran, and Wuhan China at their peaks. Social distancing, washing hands, less traveling, etc...naturally will combat the spread.

But the flattening the curve movement is obviously to get less sick, less deaths...but mainly to not stress the health care response, the ability to treat everyone is the goal, and even at the worst here (NYC and surrounding) we were able to meet that challenge with all unproven treatment methods.

At this point, what I question now is, the west coast went through its wave much earlier without social distant measures taken to fully taken to stop spread...the healthcare response never seemed overwhelmed. People who got sick, didn't seek help bc mild symptoms or even if you were sick, you were treated like having Flu and pneumonia.

Its really trying to grasp how to handle something that is sooooo contagious. Like on a scale of 1-10...I would imagine this type of disease would be a 9 or 10...It seems like no matter what, its gonna reach most communities.

The best thing that comes out of all of this is that we got a wake up call we need to be better prepared moving forward.

Yeah I think many of us here have it or may have had it. My only concern is my parents, they’re older and still going to work. It also scares me to read about young healthy people dying or having a very difficult recovery.

N95 masks, bought 3 for 10 a piece and a bottle of hand sanitizer for 20. The guy who works my corner store said you can get it on amazon for cheaper so I looked and low and behold there was hand sanitizer available, 3 left. But by the time you click on it it’s literally sold out. So I refreshed and again there was hand sanitizer available but again it sold out before I could click on it.

Found 2 bottles of “fantastix” cleaner at wegmans, entire aisle so cleared out except for these bottles and it says kills viruses and germs. I wonder since it’s marketed as kitchen cleaner if people skipped it.

Regarding getting tired of following strict measures. Can’t lie, I’m starting to think I need to go into the office more, even though we have a pretty varied (international) staff and some I don’t think are taking it serious, they would make fun of me before for buying gloves for the office etc

Such an odd time.

One bonus is spending quality time with your kid and homeschool has been cool. I’ve really learned her weaknesses and feel like we made advancements specific to her needs vs what her teacher, who is awesome, can do with like 22 second graders.
