seem it would be better to work with businesses to guarantee and pay a certain % of the pay, etc to the employees to keep them on the payroll despite not working. And then shore up the systems we already have in place to move faster and provide more short term benefits.
Pretty sure that is what they just said in the conference..and loans will be forgiven as long as kept as employeessThey want the money to circulate in the economy. Due to this crisis and people staying home, spending is curtailed, even with those who are still employed.Unemployment insurance is estimated to have a multiplier effect of 1.64. Stimulus spending would be somewhat lower, but probably still greater than 1.00

On the other hand I totally get this social distanceing in idea. A humorous thing occurred at gas station when I was fulling up my semi truck.
There was a dude ahead of us in the line, he was buying scratch-off tickets & he cannot decide how many he wants. (a middle-aged sloppy dude) So one more, one more, one more.... & so all of the patrons and all of the employees are social distancing from each other 6 feet or more and then this guy buying lotto tickets goes ACHOOOO!!! all over the counter. He had no idea why people were all basically saying
Judas Priest dude!!!!! Go home.0 -

Listening to his entire segment that’s what my take was on it anyway.Counting cheeto’s lies is always acceptable for the day’s outrage, as long as no one cares to count the lies on the other side. “News” outlets aren’t even bothering to redact or update articles anymore once they’ve been proven wrong via twitter or other means. There’s lawsuits abound against these publications and “news” sites, as they clamor to put to paper anything and everything relating to sir orange.Every time I make the mistake of coming on here I read so many misconceptions and things that have already been fact checked as false it’s truly sad. We still have one dude talking about pee tapes as if they weren’t already established as some perverts fairy tale. Folks are so infatuated with everything trump that they just can’t stop talking about him. His name comes out of some folks’ mouths dozens of times a day... while their houses remain a mess.Life isn’t this hard. Stop creating difficulty for others when there's simply no reason to do so. Be kind.

The US can get all sorts of military equipment around the world in a matter of hours, build outposts in the middle of the desert on the other side of the earth in a matter of days........but we can't get PPD's to hospitals in our own country.

Sydney international airport crammed with people flying in from overseas 🙄 wtf we are doomed. And 12 cruise ships lined up waiting to dock I'm sure they'll let them in to

This write up had a doctor explaining that she had to do chest compressions on 3 people; one in 80’s, one in 60’s and a 38 year old. All died from cardiac arrest. I wonder what it is that is causing cardiac arrest in some patients, being that it is a respiratory disease. Does the lack of oxygen have the potential to bring on cardiac arrest? https://www.abc.net.au/news/science/2020-03-26/how-the-coronavirus-can-cause-serious-illness/12066396?utm_medium=spredfast&utm_content=sf231951507&utm_campaign=abc_news&utm_source=m.facebook.com&sf231951507=1#lightbox-content-lightbox-70

It's hard to say what's real info and what's not. This seems very real to me. Osterholm is brilliant.
"We are in uncharted territory. But the best alternative will probably entail letting those at low risk for serious disease continue to work, keep business and manufacturing operating, and “run” society, while at the same time advising higher-risk individuals to protect themselves through physical distancing and ramping up our health-care capacity as aggressively as possible. With this battle plan, we could gradually build up immunity without destroying the financial structure on which our lives are based.
Very soon, we may have to acknowledge that attempting to stretch out cases in the hopes of keeping the curve reasonably flat is unworkable. Then, as we wait for either our scientific or natural redeemer to come, we can start trying to put things as back to normal as we can — doing our best to protect those at high risk, but acknowledging that people will get sick, some will die, and our health-care system is going to be overrun to a great extent no matter what we do.
There is no black-or-white option here. We will have to figure out what shade of gray we can accept and apply. We will get through this, but hard and painful choices are inescapable."

UK. Prince Charles was confirmed yesterday to be infected with corona. He was not given the privilege to test himself, but met the criteria for a test, reports Reuters. "The Prince of Wales has not progressed in gender," says Health Minister Edward Argar."Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"0
