    Nba just suspended reat of the season. Two players tested positive.  
    Yeah they floated playing the games with no crowd, but the teams would still have to constantly travel. I wonder if they’ll play the Masters without a crowd. 

    Sports stuff aside, what the hell does one do if they feel flu-like symptoms? Typically, I’d call my doctor, she’d write a prescription for like Tamiflu, and I’d stay home for a day or two. I’m guessing that wouldn’t work for covoid-19 (right? I don’t know.) Do you go to the emergency room? It’s so contagious, might you infect someone as you walk in? Does my nearest hospital even have the means of testing for it. I don’t know. 
    From what I’ve read, if you have typical
    symptoms like fever and cough, isolate yourself first. Unless you are in immediate need of medical assistance, don’t go to an ER or medical clinic. Tamiflu won’t help. If you are youngish and otherwise healthy, mostly likely you’ll be fine recovering at home. Call your doctor as soon as you can for more instructions, as ideally you would be tested so that it could be confirmed as a case or ruled out, but I have no idea what’s going to happen with testing in the US, frankly. 
    Thanks. That’s more info than I got from Trump. 

    But now I know to cover my nose when I sneeze, and to wash my hands frequently. Thanks for the newsflash, Don.

    You know this is kinda why I hate people. Everyone saying trump should say what the medical people want him to, then he does and people make fun of the advice.

    Trump's coronavirus task force is reportedly awaiting 'research' from Jared Kushner before making an emergency declaration

    • Ahead of an address to the nation on Wednesday night, President Donald Trump is reportedly waiting on a final sign-off from his son-in-law before going with the White House coronavirus task force's recommendation.
    • Jared Kushner's involvement is part of a discombobulated White House response to the virus, with Trump "reluctant to declare an expansive emergency to combat the escalating coronavirus outbreak, fearful of stoking panic with such a dramatic step," according to Politico.
    • Instead, Trump is looking at a more limited package that would fit with his messaging downplaying the severity of the virus, Politico reported.

    Jared Dear Boy? Are you fucking kidding me? Why? Because his Mid East peace plan was such a success? What the fuck are his credentials to be an advisor on a pandemic response? Wooooo, oh Jared? Jared dear boy, please tell daddy what you discovered in your research. Jared, bring the markers in case daddy wants to redraw the maps of the virus’ spread. Hurry Jared dear boy, daddy’s going to tweet. November can’t come fast enough.

    Thanks all for answering.

    Kind of hard to believe we don't have anyone freaking out and that is good.

    I have a very sick Aunt in the hospital whom I go see but am afraid to get close because I travel frequently into the city.  I've been using the purell stations and using the 6' rule. 


    Good luck with your aunt. I might have a family member who could be at higher risk but it’s tough to know for sure.

    with a lot of things shutting down today- NCAAs, St Patty’s Parade, SUNY & CUNY schools, maybe it’s time to shut all the schools down and all the sports leagues. Why are the kids going to school if major things are shutting down? Seems risky now for any school superintendent to keep the districts open in light of this.

    It seems like things are about to get very weird.
    You have to remember that schools being open is where kids get their only 2 meals a day.  The city feeds a lot of children whom would otherwise starve.

    It is a very tough predicament to be in.

    World leaders can do everything right, but it’ll never be enough to control STUPID FUCKING PEOPLE

    Stupid, selfish people are the reason this will keep spreading.

    I appreciate your opinion and I respect your choice to be vegan. Let’s leave it there.
