Is that the Walnut street bridge? Was just wondering, live a short distance outside Chattanooga but usually don’t venture into the city. Recently my sons coach decided to end his life by jumping off that bridge so was just curious if that was the same one.
That is it.
Quite a few people have ended it by jumping from the bridge. It doesn't happen as often as it did when I was a kid.
They have hung a couple of folks off the bride back in the late 1800s or early 1990s.

I like the art museum right by there
Hunter Museum of American Art
Beautiful old mansion built in 1904. Designed by Abram Garfield, son of President James A. Garfield. Plus the two additions they have added on.

None if you people know anything about this virus at all...none of you. Not the government, not the doctors, and definitely not any of us. Keep doing stupid shite trying to show your arse.

Yes, there is. They keep saying it can live in the air for up to 3 hours. If there is a 5 mph wind, everyone that is an upwind carrier within 15 miles can get you.
There is a difference between what’s possible and what’s probable.
How probable do you think it is that you’ll be infected by someone who coughed into the air 3 hours ago in another zip code?

Bring hand sanitizer and keep a reasonable distance when grocery shopping.
That would make too much sense.
Better to shut down the economy and bankrupt the hospitality industry and cripple the middle class

Why? There’s nothing wrong with going for walks, jogs, boat rides, etc with members of your immediate family in places where you won’t be within 10-15 feet of others.
But then you couldn’t pretend the government wasn’t oppressing and confining you.
WOLVERINES!

As they should. I'm tired of having my life ruined because of the Corona common cold.

older adults living in long-term care facilities (4).

In contrast, no ICU admissions or deaths were reported among persons aged =19 years

This first preliminary description of outcomes among patients with COVID-19 in the United States indicates that fatality was highest in persons aged =85, ranging from 10% to 27%, followed by 3% to 11% among persons aged 65–84 years, 1% to 3% among persons aged 55-64 years, <1% among persons aged 20–54 years, and no fatalities among persons aged =19 years
Are enough to prove the panic makes no sense and mandatory shelter in place and it’s effect on the economy is worse than the virus itself.
Mandate everyone over 70 stay home and if you have a sick condition stay at home. No reason to crush the economy and bankrupt families all over the country. No data backs that up.

Also extremely unlikely: A safe falls on you from a building.

If it is not within the realm of possibility, or has a low degree of probability, then they need to quit saying it can last in the air for 3 hours.
Let's just put facts out there, or all participate as jokesters in these dumb threads.
What does Reddit think of that, Gnome?

Who is “they” and this sounds like a bunch of scare tactic bullshite.

"They" is every major news site. The NIH is saying it can live up to 3 hours in aerosol, whatever that means.
Either this is a flat out lie, or "keeping a distance of 6' is safe" is a lie. They cannot both be true.

3 feet for 3 minutes is likely needed to transmit,
Stay 6 feet away.
Stay 6 feet away.

Down votes don't mean much in here.
Half the OT is a bunch of 16 year old, man bun wearing, basement dwelling poofs. They down vote everything.

Isn’t the CDC advocating getting out in the world and taking walks? Just keep your distance and mind your P’s & Q’s...not sure that was their exact press release.

If this is really the case, everyone's gonna get it almost regardless.
Yep, If that were the case, you'd be guaranteed to get it, even if the only time you open a door is to get your mail and answering the door for deliveries.
Even people like me and my 89 and 85 year old parents, who've only left the house twice, to pick up groceries outside Walmart, aren't safe.
