I wonder if he had contact with the nursing home in any way.



My girlfriend's sister went on a date with someone last night who works at the same school in Oregon as where that one patient was discovered.

He better be accurate with that statement because, if he was lied too or he is making it up, people will jump all over him.

I've actually been worried about India.

Disgusting sanitation, extremely poor cleaning habits, over a billion people, extremely stacked communities, huge airports that link all over the world, no quarantine yet.




Exactly. Me too.

Not sure why that image got downvoted

If India has an outbreak, it will be bad news for the entire world.

They said we should be able to do possibly a million tests by next week. That’s great news.

Everyone with flu like symptoms needs a flu test and if negative then a corona test. Unless they have a travel or contact history in which case I would go straight to corona test. That would be a good policy.

He was talking about 3rd party companies being allowed to test now and said “We’ve done 75k tests thus far and will do a million over next two weeks”


I’m wondering if by “doing tests” he is speaking to producing kits

My wife needs to stop listening to all her bored housewife friends.

Just got this text:

"Bought some plain bleach in case we need to treat water to drink. Corona is getting really bad."

WTF does that even mean? Is the tap gonna shut off?

Pardon my ignorance but is that a million tests worldwide? Why would we do tests for other countries? We certainly don't need a million people tested in the US already do we? Or was just a if we have to we would be able to do a million?

I didn't marry her because of her ability to survive the apocalypse.

Her best friend's dad brought their house bleach and said if water runs out, treat the creek water with a drop of bleach

Sounds terrible, but India and China pollution could potentially be lowered at a noticeable rate for a long, long time. It has already happened in China obviously, but India is disgusting as well.

We need the capability to perform that many tests, just like we would with the flu.

We test millions of people for the flu during flu season.

It will give accurate numbers as far as mortality and infection rate.
