PDIII

I own property down there and the roads are not closed.

Taking the kids to the condo in Ocean City... in addition to Wet suits.. we all bought those long skateboards and will take turns letting our Great Danes pull us down the boardwalk! I am gonna milk this WFH thing for all its work

Just say you are going from Grocery Store to Grocery Store looking for toilet paper.

The Stanford piece is interesting.

This a good journal article about corona virus from 2013: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3805243/

yeah... Whole Foods finally caved under pressure and close their buffet on Friday... Thats actually a really good point. I feel like I might be losing it. I am gonna bring this up with my therapist this week. I am finding myself listening to and reading conspiracy theories about this.

This is more or less normal. As noted earlier a typical flu season in Italy kills around 15,000 people. If you google "flu season" in google images, you will see several graphs that show a significant spike during the the late winter period. The spike shows that the vast majority of cases occur over a period of 30-60 days. So normally in Italy it wouldnt not be abnormal to see more than 10,000 people die in the late winter months. The difference this year is that the media is reporting it has it happens...

This is a really interesting.. this talks about "Problem, Reaction, Solution" and how Corona Virus is a model for the take over of the Global Technocracy...

Cant do distance learning. That puts a large number of students at a disadvantage. Its likely that many kids will not have a conducive environment to regularly participate.

The decision to let the economy go to hell has already been made. And unfortunately it was made by all the people with cushy (non-essential) salaried jobs that can be done from a computer at home. The narrative kinda went like this.. "I can work from home.. so why should Buffalo Wild Wings be open?" I just hope when those people are sitting in their living rooms on their couch listening to people talk on some non-essential conference call that they realize just how non-essential they really are.. that it really truly doesnt matter if they go to work or not...

On my way to wholefoods for their breakfast bar!

OMG.. I just did the math.. that means 168 people a day were dying.. every single day.. that makes me want to cry. Think of all those people that could have been saved.. The only possible sensible solution to this is to do Social Distancing every flu season. I just realized that I have been killing people every year.. like thousands of people.. This is mind boggling.

OMG.. 68,000 people died in one year in Italy alone.. thats jaw dropping. And was that a particularly bad year?

The fact that China reported no new cases today is extremely interesting. It really shows how that country is in firm control of what information flows out.... zero new cases is clearly a figure produced with an agenda

They said in clinical trial 100% of the patients were considered cured as compared to the control. Albeit the study only included 6 patients.

Excellent now. Yesterday was a false alarm.. BTW.. FDA found a cure: "In fact, after six days, 70 percent of the treated patients were considered cured, meaning that the virus was no longer detected in samples taken from them, compared to 12.5 percent of the control group patients. Furthermore, all six patients who were treated with both hydroxychloroquine and the antibiotic azithromycin tested negative for the virus after six days." https://www.newsweek.com/hydroxychloroquine-malaria-drug-coronavirus-fda-1493293

This guy is makes me so angry. I am not mature enough to handle a Pandemic.

What does he mean by "shut down" the economy? Stop trading on the NYSE? Thats not gonna do any good. We need to have faith in our markets.

Those numbers are not impressive especially if you remove china and Italy from equation How do you mean Ji? I dont think we can trust the China numbers either. We dont know what type of analysis was used to test the patients.

The problem is is that if the curve flattens.. people will think it was because of social distancing.. and then we set a very bad precedence for future pandemics.

They cant shut down grocery stores. Right now they are targeting all the fun places. Whole Foods hot bar is really open.. I am not kidding around there.

I was feeling a little bit better this afternoon so I went to whole foods for lunch. Their hot bar is the best! I love those wings

I am sad to report that I woke up with a 102 fever this morning and a really bad sore throat.

It is tough to decipher what is real and what isnt real. This is the first crowd sourced pandemic we ever had. It kinda has a mind of its own. This is a clear example of Tyranny of the Majority (as predicted by Tocqueville). We have had several media generated pandemics.. but in those cases the experts were allowed to make the decisions and use their knowledge and experience to quell panic. This time, decisions are being made by the masses.

I guess we would be looking at something like that ^^^ if we just let nature take its course.
