So I have a video conference at 10 with dept of health. We are hearing confirmed cases in Birmingham and Huntsville and that the first case in GA was someone from AL but nothing confirmed.
They are setting up 2 drive up testing sites today and results in 4 hours so I figure our number will rise today

Its been there since December...UAB was having issues with an unknown pulmonary " thing" in December...they are just testing now and finding it because of that. Still a nothingburger.

if it is true, it was only a matter of time. my concern is my wife has Celiac, and her immune system is shite because of it - we agree it is a matter of when she gets it because she catches everyone cold/flu when they are around her.

This thread sucks already.
The pics she sent to Jody or the doctor she was banging probably already made the "slutty nurses" thread we had here a few weeks back.
No need to spam the site with her.

If that’s the case, then I’m 100% sure I had this shite in January.

It's been here. Grandview has had cases of all the symptoms and negative for the flu. They are supposed to release today that 2 nurses have it.
Alabama really just started testing yesterday.

“Guy in Alabama has extremely contagious common cold”

The dam is likely going to break in Alabama today. Way too much smoke of positive tests from Birmingham, Montgomery, Mobile, and Huntsville over the past few days. I'd imagine we'll have 5 or 6 confirmed cases today, and more over the weekend.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (WBRC) - The Alabama Department of Public Health confirms the state’s first confirmed case of coronavirus Friday morning.
The City of Montgomery posted on Twitter the case is in Montgomery County. The tweet says that someone came in contact with the virus on a trip out of the state.
Gov. Kay Ivey released the following statement:
“Along with my fellow Alabamians, I have closely monitored the rapidly changing events regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19). As a state, we have taken precautionary measures and made preparations in the case that the virus would eventually reach our state. As I have emphasized time and again, the safety and health of Alabamians is paramount.
“Alabamians are smart and savvy, and I know they will continue taking appropriate precautions to prevent the spread to themselves or others. We have taken a calm and collected approach in preparation for this first confirmed case, and we need to remember that calm and steady wins the race. Alabamians should not be fearful, but instead, use commonsense to watch out for themselves and others. We will remain engaged on the matter and continue prioritizing the health and wellbeing of all Alabamians.
“I am grateful to the work of State Health Officer Dr. Scott Harris, as well as the members of my Coronavirus Task Force and countless individuals who are also watching and working on this situation closely.”
State Health Officer Dr. Scott Harris released the following statement:
"The Alabama Department of Public Health has worked hard to prepare and has anticipated receiving a report of the first case of COVID-19 in an Alabama resident. We continue to recommend that people be prudent and encourage them to use proper hygiene behaviors such as handwashing, not touching their faces with unwashed hands, covering coughs and sneezes, and staying home if they have fever. As a precaution, it is suggested that any gatherings of more than 500 people be postponed or canceled.”

For sure. I think all school systems have had the email drafted for days. Just waiting to hit send.

In Louisiana: crickets.
If you listen closely, though, you can hear the lawyers stirring, figuring out how to sue the frick out of someone because there were tests/weren't tests/tests were too fast or too slow/mobile test were available or you had to go inside, etc.

It really is admirable, in a perverse sort of way, how they can figure nearly any angle from which they can pick over the carrion for a few rotten morsels.

Alabama’s defense is elite, as usual, but the odds were against them fighting a 4 front war.
Admirable effort.

I know of one that's putting their plan in place now to close the week after spring break. They're waiting to get all their ducks in a row before announcing though. This system is not in the Birmingham area.
