Over here, hospital admissions are finally catching up to the infection rates, so now that we've delt with the mutant mink, it's back to the regular scheduled COVID programming. My stocks are fine, just been keeping an eye on sales and grabbing this and that, keeping everything topped off. My brother just passed to negative tests, because his COVID app put him in proximity of something or someone.

I'm a big advocate for bidets but that **** is meant to be used in conjunction with the basic hygiene action of wiping your ***, it is NOT a substitute for toilet paper.

Covid has helped answer a lot of questions in regards to what-if scenarios involving a zombie apocalypse. We'd be screwed.

Average daily cases up to 150k and deaths over 1100.
The hospitalizations map (below) is useful. The question is whether the high numbers in the upper midwest/west will be followed by more hospitalizations in the rest of the country. So far, there's no reason to think that won't be the case. But, some positive signs -- the rate of growth in cases appears to be slowing down in the Dakotas and Illinois. We'll need another week or two to see if that's real, but hopefully the rest of the country will follow that trend soon.

Looking at the curve chart for NY and we are at the same number of daily cases that we were in mid March when we shutdown.
What is Being taken into account differently this time? We should Be locking down Today. Every day we wait is more dangerous.
The numbers are there what the heck is Cuomo waiting for?

Idk. Obviously, I hope it's as effective as they say it is, but I'm not gonna be in the first group that gets it, that's for sure.
Can't compare mid March numbers to now because of the lack of testing back in March. All they knew in March was that it was way more widespread than the actual number of positive tests.

Most of us probably won't have that choice anyways
Hopefully it shows just as good results for the front line and high risk folks when we get there

Southern states under trumpist governors won’t shut down, that’s a fact. The northeast and west coast definitely will along with the Midwestern states that are controlled by more moderates. It best believe that the death rates outside of major metropolis’ this time around will be higher or on par with what is going to occur in the areas that do shut down.

what’s the latest on the mink mutation? You say it’s “dealt with” but last I heard they hadn’t determined if the mutation would make vaccines ineffective against it.
EDIT: nevermind, found this
COVID mink analysis shows mutations are not dangerous — yet
The analysis found the mutations probably won’t jeopardize vaccines, but scientists say the rampant spread means the animals still need to be killed.

GLad your case was mild and it’s over. I had a family member recover within 10 days.
We’re people at your wife’s office wearing masks?

No. Unless they had a customer sit at their desk. But the person who had it kept coming in to work when they had a "tickle in her throat" and coughing.
We got official time lines from the health dept finally, shes done with her quarantine today and im done wednesday. But now since our kid never showed any symptoms in our time she herself has to do an additional 2 weeks to make sure it doesnt show up.
We get to spend thanksgiving cooped up in our house to ourselves

It's been a bit of a mess and the Veterinary and Food Administration has now both been criticized for acting too fast and too slow.
The fur farms also seems to struggle with transparency, they refused to accept mobil labs to test or identify their laborers, probably because they rely on guest workers, who are working and living under questionable conditions.
Seems like it's the end of an industry, that will not be missed or mourned much.

Hopefully they implement a mask policy after this so your wife doesn’t have to work under those conditions
