I had to go to the hated Walmart yesterday. My small town pharmacy closed down end of last year and CVS prices are 3x Walmart's or more for meds. The extra 50 mile round trip to Walmart and my hatred of the place is easily over come by saving $200+ a month. Any way they had one way aisles and only one entrance to the store open, which happened to be the one furthest from the pharmacy. Just going to the pharmacy I ended up walking 4x as much as I normally do. I wonder what genius dreamed that up? The pharmacy patrons are mostly elderly and some don't look to be in too good of health. If they were going to have one entrance open it should have been the one right next to the pharmacy. The people working the pharmacy complained to management about the set-up and it fell on deaf ears.

1st time I've been inside of an actual grocery store in probably 2 months. Line is 50 people deep. Will be the last time for another couple months. I'd rather starve.

I went looking for an item that I figured was too specific to find anywhere besides a large store and I was already in the area. The CVS I was at looking for propane didn't even have it.

I should've know better than go on a nice Saturday afternoon. So it was mostly my fault.

At least they had what I was looking for and the line ended up going way faster than I thought. They had the process down pretty smooth. Its a big store, and the line went all the way from the front of the store to the back and then to the right 20 people. It was weird. Never seen anything like that before.

That's pretty funny, you shop at Giant Foods. We don't have those out here.

Other teams are really at a marketing disadvantage. There are no Redskins Foods.

I worked for Giant Food Inc. at their Warehouse's in Landover and Jessup Maryland for over 30 years.

Another thing apparently being hoarded: Propane

Went to CVS, they were all out. And the guy at 7-11 said I got the last one.

It could be possible the supply chain was disrupted right at the time when BBQ season is upon us. The local Harbor Freight was pretty much cleaned out of sand blasting media. When I asked they said they hadn't got a shipment in 3 weeks due to sanitizing warehouses and trucking fleets.

Here in Virginia our idiot Governor was recording both the antibodies tests and the diagnostic tests for Covid as one inflating rates and Overall testing results. This was only after Health experts criticism of the incompetence.

Colorado Drastically Reduces Coronavirus Death Count, Democrat Gov Polis Suggests CDC Numbers Wrong:

Colorado Democratic Governor Jared Polis told Fox News host Chris Wallace on Sunday that his state significantly reduced the number of COVID-19 deaths that the state was reporting because the number included people who died with the coronavirus but not necessarily from it.

The reduction of 272 deaths from the COVID-19 death toll in the state represents a roughly 25 percent decrease in the total number of deaths.

Politicians do the same thing with HIV cases. People die of pneumonia due to suppressed immune system but not HIV/AIDS so they don't count it. Just a way for Polis to pull the wool over his constituencies eyes.

I remember seeing in the early days / weeks of the pandemic, there were a lot of posts by people online stating that they had family members who had passed away and they were struggling with getting the county offices to amend the death certificates to show what they actually died from. (People dying from heart attacks or cancer, etc..) People were being told that for the time being, all deaths had to be officially listed as COVID-19, but would later be able to be redacted. Perhaps this is tying in to that. I think even in New York, Cuomo said that initially they counted ALL deaths from anything as COVID, because autopsies werent being performed in mass because at that time they were still trying to not overload hospitals / morgues, etc...

I am sure in time, more of this will come out. Colorado can't / won't be the only state that does this.

All deaths counted as covid? Doesn't sound right at all. If covid was at all involved they may have listed it as a cause of death, but if someone died in a car accident they weren't listing the cause as covid.

I believe initially if a person tested positive for it, but then died for whatever other reason - heart attack, stroke, etc., then COVID-19 was listed as the cause of death. That was going on in NY initially. But i believe the governor discovered that, and some of the deaths were later redacted.
