    Funny- I may possibly be moving away in a few years too, and southern PA was an area we’ve considered. How far I can move depends on what my permanent percentage of telework is though, which I’m not gonna fully know until next year. Proximity to relatives is also a factor.

    My wife and I just fell in love with the Hanover area. So much so we were like, let’s move! Kids are even on board, mostly because I sold them on more snow lol. They are just like their old man, haha.

    thats exactly what i wanted to know. She is looking at Mooresville...and it looks like that is about 1.5 hours away from Booone/Beach. Closer than Western MD from my house now. Is it tough to get up there with terrain,etc?

     

    i told her that only condition i would move is if i get 2-3 trips a year by myself to chase snow

    321 is a beautiful drive.

    I’d just like to know, honesty and sincerely, how anyone can still believe this isn’t that serious. 

    This is probably the largest mobilization and disruption of American society since the Second World War. The stock market in a span of two weeks went from all time highs to one of the sharpest declines in American history. Virtually half the states, led by legislatures and governors of both parties have declared states of emergency and states are shutting all public schools.

    Like, do you really think we’d be doing this if this virus were another flu? Do you really think places like China, South Korea, Italy, and Spain would halt their economies for a bad flu season? 

    We can disagree on the eventual scope. Maybe the mortality rate is closer to .4% than 2%. Perhaps the transmission rate slows during warmer months. But the facts are the facts and the math is the math and it ain’t got squat to do with what Obama did in 2009 and what the swine flu may or may not have done. 

    Amen Brother.

    To add context to this, my mom lives in a county where there’s been multiple coronavirus cases and a death. 

    Today she needed to go to the emergency room. This was at 4pm today, ambulance and all, under a physician’s order.

    The local hospital is a madhouse. It’s 11pm and she still doesn’t have a room. Now imagine dozens of coronavirus patients needing care at the same time in rural areas. Imagine hundreds or thousands in urban understaffed hospitals.

    Us young and healthy folks have to stop looking at it from our narrow personalized perspective.
