Some people keep minimizing things by using the percentage numbers which are low but not when you take into account the population. Then the mortality rate is huge. I don't care what the percentage is. 1,000,000+ people is a lot and nothing to minimize.1% of possible infection rate of 40% of USA population of 330,000,000 is 132,000,000 x 1% is 1,320,000 deaths.
we never ran out of dog and cat food here even the cheaper brands.Have to head out today to pick up some food and our meds. We're about to run out of dog food also. Wish me luck.
Yeah, esp. when one considers this is an addition to the other stuff that kills yearly: flu, vehicle accidents, cancer, accidents, etc. One million is more than my county.Some people keep minimizing things by using the percentage numbers which are low but not when you take into account the population.

biggest hits in my stores now is frozen food, hand sanitizer, any boxed fast food. There is milk, eggs, chicken, beef. Still low on dry rice and beans. Plenty of pop, beer, wine. Walmart now better than the rest. Still run on gal water (I could never figure this out) Name brand *NSAIDs and cold/cough available.WOW, haven't seen my store that stocked in weeks
Yep. Most of the hospitals across our state are just small access points. For level 1 trauma/ICUs we only have EMMC and Maine Med. If this had hit at peak tourist season, we'd be in trouble.These people definitely dont call their homes camps lol. Although with some of their houses, I've seen nicer camps. It's all old money passed down to the the kids. When the older generation were alive, they actually took care of the houses and kept up the maintenance. The kids dont do shit, let the houses rot and come to live in them for 1.5/2 months out of the year and that's it.
This impacts our community in such a harmful way. They've all come up at the same time, call all the local plumbers to get their water back on(possibly spreading the virus to them if they have it) and have a bit of a cavalier attitude about the virus because we are remote (not practicing social distancing) There are a lot of older folks here, with one tiny underappreciated hospital that would never be able to keep up. But hey, as long as they feel safe
Hey bro. Not sure where you get your doggie food from but i went to tractor suoply and they had the food I usually pick up thank godHave to head out today to pick up some food and our meds. We're about to run out of dog food also. Wish me luck.
I lucked out and found potatoes at costco. Unfortunately, I was the first mother fucker NOT to get my two cases of water they had just got inmy stores were out of potatoes and onions a couple of days ago but some on the shelf today. you look pretty well stocked there
Commissary on base, I'll find out this afternoon what they have on hand. Our little store carries small bags for a price, and DG has it also.Hey bro. Not sure where you get your doggie food from but i went to tractor suoply and they had the food I usually pick up thank god
Keep in mind that these are early days.Some people keep minimizing things by using the percentage numbers which are low but not when you take into account the population. Then the mortality rate is huge. I don't care what the percentage is. 1,000,000+ people is a lot and nothing to minimize.
Hysteria, realism or minimization, hysteria increases our metabolism and creates tunnel vision, minimization turns into the pictures of spring break on the beach. Realism instead of panic ensures a logical and calm reaction to a threat. Panic never fixes anything.Some people keep minimizing things by using the percentage numbers which are low but not when you take into account the population. Then the mortality rate is huge.

I hope your dad makes it through. This is so sad but not unpredictable. Hopefully this will bring manufacturing of critical items back onto our shore and get us back into active planning for these type of health care emergencies instead of the shuttering of hospitals and the scattering of our precious health resources as a legacy from the 1970s and 1980s.Dont think of me as insensitive… those seem like big numbers and they are but I wonder what percentage of that population would have died from something else anyways in their elderly age had the virus not killed them first. Elderly people catch stuff and die. It sucks, I worry about my dad having beat lung cancer but being permanently weakened from the chemo and radiation. So it does hit close to home but looking at his condition it's like fuck he can catch anything and die. So I would think the corona virus numbers might be up while other numbers of cause of death would be down. Just me thinking out loud…
