Four people treated and released which leads me to believe they presented with very mild symptoms and weren’t even serious to be admitted? Maybe the hospital didn’t think they’d be positive and tested them on a whim and then were like whoops they were actually positive.
Trump officially announces a state of emergency to deal with this.
He just threw shade at the Obamacare website rollout. LOL.
Was going to go to the store, but before I got there Trump announced his national state of emergency and the lines were a zoo.
posted by majorsparkLeft work early hit the local grocery store to stock up. No shortages except TP, hand sanitizer, and for some reason hamburger. I don't know if they had a promised shipment of TP coming in but several women were standing by empty shelves like they were waiting.
Was surprised the Giant Eagle in Ravenna was well stocked except for the meat area. Speaking or which, to add to my earlier story, a co-worker said he was at the Giant Eagle in Solon last night and saw a fist fight over groceries in the parking lot.

1. Glad I harvested 5 deer this year. Plenty of meat.
2. I will be carrying a gun for quite awhile in public
I'm just going to do some hunting/gathering over the next few days - go to a few stores and grab a few things. Try to build maybe 30 days supply over several days, rather than grab it all at once. The supply chain isn't going to get shutdown overnight, if at all (otherwise you'll have complete anarchy).
Then make & freeze meals like soup, spaghetti, Indian/Thai and other stuff that freezes well. I try to do that, anyway, but have been slacking off.
Yeah, theoretically you should be getting stored dry goods, but again there's no way you can let the electric grid fail for days on end.

Come on.....you will be able to order a pizza any night of the week.
We typically buy a ton of chicken and grill it all at once. The store was a mess, so I just bought 2 weeks worth of crap so I don’t have to go back lol.

that'll keep you safe from coronavirus
Went to Costco after work, it really wasn’t that bad. No TP (still don’t fucking get it), but grabbed 2 cases of water, some other small things, and 3 bottles of Vodka in case they close daycare for weeks. Prayers to all with little kids
Went grocery shopping today and was pleased how well it went. Everyone was being polite, both customers and workers. There seemed to be plenty of everything, except toilet paper, yet there still were some choices to make with that product. Workers said that as busy as they were today, it was yesterday that was a huge fiasco.
It was good to see the stock market make a big move in the hour before the bell. And now we have two days to hopefully settle things before Monday morning trading begins on the NYSE.

Interesting to see where the lemmings flock. Plenty of essentials on the shelves. The wise know they have plenty of unmatched socks in a laundry basket they hoped one day could find their match and can now actually serve a purpose.

We've seen this pattern a few times before. They decide over the weekend the stimulus isn't enough, or won't do much, combined with an acceleration of new cases in the US.
Expect lots of volatility going forward. Probably not [hopefully] like the last two days, but how I'm viewing it all is I thought a recession could hit 30-40%. And I'm expecting a recession. Basically invest it over a period of 2 months so I don't completely miss a rally, but also don't dive in before it falls another 20%...not sure what that looks like yet or what my triggers are.

Assessed my ammo situation today and wasn't happy with it. Went to a local gun shop/range tonight after dinner and it was pretty packed. They said they had been extremely busy all day.
But, now I'm confident I have enough rounds to kill any coronaviruses that show up at my doorstep. Solidarity, Spock.

They only want your toilet paper.

I can totally see the typical shopping trip: Walmart for frozen dinners, water and toilet paper. Home Depot for tarps, propane, plywood and nails, and 5 gallon gas cans. Gas station. Local gun store. Liquor store. And the ATM (which isn't much of a joke - tornado or hurricane knocks out electric and there's no power to process credit/debit cards).
We probably need to ban flights from Canada as well (and basically close that border) since Trudeau’s dumbass hasn’t stopped flights from China, or any other infected areas.
Also, NBC news is spreading Chinese propaganda that the US may have started the disease there. Good work!
