It's the carousal of anti-government twiddlef*cks.

That would play right into their hands of the "help, help I'm being oppressed".

PA is really the Alabama of the east coast.

I'd put my money on a treatment before a vaccine. In 20 years of global vaccine research for SARS and MERS, not a single vaccine has been developed. There are some promising prospects out there, but even if something was announced today, there is no way commercial availability would be before November. Even then, it would only be available for hospitals for those seriously or critically ill.
-
I hope the lab processing is boosted as well. Right now there's regional labs, not every state has one and we could just get another back log of confirmed/not confirmed cases.
-
Was just about to say this. Hope they're already in a warehouse in the state and not en route because I've lost all faith in the Feds with this event.

We're a big biotech capital with MedImmune, NIH, etc. in this state so we stand the chance of emerging better with testing capabilities if we really put a concerted effort through in this state.
-
A lot of counties opening up more drive up testing. Not sure if this is related, but it's been a big push at the local level.
-
Yea. The first thing you want to see is more releases than hospitalizations for about a week. We just aren't seeing that and the MIEMMS hospital data yet though.
-
From what I've seen at work, these numbers are not due to a spike in testing bandwidth. This is high and it's just the Monday/Tuesday slump. Our hospitalizations numbers are not getting any better either.

It's more likely we develop a treatment protocol before a vaccine for COVID19. Even still that's probably a year off, IMO.
-
Unfortunately we probably won't see much societal change for the better. Things like right to work laws have largely enabled businesses to suffocate any incremental improvements for employees in this county. Even something as simple as equitable sick leave has been squashed because it's somehow bad for business owners to let a sick employee stay at home and rest up.

Saw it on Twitter, tried to find the link but I can't find the source again in my feed so I deleted it. I don't want to spread potentially bad info.

OMG THIS IS AMAZING!!!
-
One thing that's been really prevalent is how rapidly COVID19 spreads in a closed environment compared to the flue et al. Nursing homes, military ships, meat packing plants. Once it's inside your place of work it just goes through the population like wildfire.

I'd like to the see the euro pull the low just a tad NW a bit. But that's a healthy signal for another event worth watching. -

100% agree. We started working on our recovery/re-opening plan the day after Hogan announced the shuttering of non-essential services. What is going to really suck is what places like Florida are doing where they're re-opening things full blast in the next 2 weeks without check. Florida is starting to re-open beaches this Friday at 5:00 pm and the governor has stated he wants to no restrictions on crowds. That's completely asinine.

Pics?

I guarantee you between May 15 - 20 a large swath of this country is going to be in the process of opening back up. Come Memorial Day, you'll see crowded beaches and people clamoring to get back into bars, etc. We'll forget this even happened by July.
