No, but our word directly effects the clients’ bottom line. They don’t want any slowdown at all in our services and any sort of opportunity of slowing our services down frightened them

It is spreading rapidly. No doubt about that. Thanks China.

Could you give it a break? Every single post you’ve made in this thread has been “everybody gonna die” types.

Are the Chinese now more hated than Arabs?

Either way..

Thanks Obama.

They may stumble on a cure, enough chemicals will be ingested that there is no telling the discoveries.

I wonder if we will see states impose full service gasoline in the next couple of months to limit the spread of the virus.

I know this is going to be a little morbid but I wonder how countries, us included, are going to handle the deaths? Remember the Chinese were recommending cremation of the dead.

lol no.

That’s far far far down the list of possible actions as ranked on ROI.

I don’t see then getting any bigger than closing school districts and public events even with hysteria fueling it.

Apparently one of the quarantined patients in San Antonio who was released has now tested positive and been returned to quarantine.

CDC fricking this up so bad. Why are our tests so shitty?

Also the paramedics and nurses that have been seen transporting patients from the Kirkland nursing home to ambulances have been just wearing gloves/masks.

Meanwhile the CDC recommends EMS wear the following:

quote:

Recommended Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

EMS clinicians who will directly care for a patient with possible COVID-19 infection or who will be in the compartment with the patient should follow Standard, Contact, and Airborne Precautions, including the use of eye protection. Recommended PPE includes:
A single pair of disposable patient examination gloves. Change gloves if they become torn or heavily contaminated,
Disposable isolation gown,
Respiratory protection (i.e., N-95 or higher-level respirator), and
Eye protection (i.e., goggles or disposable face shield that fully covers the front and sides of the face).

Drivers, if they provide direct patient care (e.g., moving patients onto stretchers), should wear all recommended PPE. After completing patient care and before entering an isolated driver’s compartment, the driver should remove and dispose of PPE and perform hand hygiene to avoid soiling the compartment.
If the transport vehicle does not have an isolated driver’s compartment, the driver should remove the face shield or goggles, gown and gloves and perform hand hygiene. A respirator should continue to be used during transport.

All personnel should avoid touching their face while working.
On arrival, after the patient is released to the facility, EMS clinicians should remove and discard PPE and perform hand hygiene. Used PPE should be discarded in accordance with routine procedures.
Other required aspects of Standard Precautions (e.g., injection safety, hand hygiene) are not emphasized in this document but can be found in the guideline titled Guideline for Isolation Precautions: Preventing Transmission of Infectious Agents in Healthcare Settings.

What if this is a Mass Extinction Bio Weapon.

14 days before symptoms

Kills elderly and young

Goes dormant while we spread it further across the globe

Kills everyone

This is all Fd up. How do we know that people weren’t getting sick/dying from corona virus before? Lysol can says “kills corona virus”.

I trust no one anymore.


And how are they treating those that test positive? And what type test is it? Swab? Blood??

How are they gonna “cure” this?

It could very well be a bio weapon unleashed to thin the global herd dramatically.

And so I get gas — person before me was in Walmart and touched a cart that someone touched who had handled money from a person unknowingly that had CV? How the hell you gonna find those people to trace it back to??

This is all absurd. I work in a nursing home —admin hadn’t said a thing. Universal precautions all day long is all. we have one case of flu advanced to pneumonia — guy is middle age, mostly bedridden, tube feeder who honestly likely got aspiration pneumonia from eating prior to tube feeding being initiated.

So they are still allowing people to visit the nursing home.

@TedLandK5 Kim Frey drove all the way from Twisp to visit her mom at Life Care Center of Kirkland. She was able to see her this evening and says the mood inside is calm, people wearing masks.
