California Governor Calls Out What A Mess Coronavirus Testing Is Right Now

The Golden State received test kits for COVID-19 from the federal government that did not include all the components needed to actually run a test.

Yes and thank you

Buy low. Carnival Corp looks pretty tasty right now.

And Disney

Can buy Disney stocks cheaper than a ticket into the park

I guess it was just a matter of time before this kind of nonsense was introduced. Lets try and keep the politics out of this thread, ... rather than fixing the blame at the moment, lets first try to fix the problem.

Not placing blame but ignorance is bliss...So yeah we can start fixing it from there... Quite frankly if these types of things bother people why not just rid all talk that include economical downfalls?

Not to make light of relationships, but I wouldn't be surprised to hear about a spike in divorces & break-ups in the coming months. With schools closing along with workplace adjustments which may have couples and children spending way more time together than ever anticipated, strains are likely to appear.

One can hope.

I am taking a beating, but planning on dropping major money back in to the market in a month or so

Amen.

Nevada has 2 reported cases. I just got a call from one of my customers they make most of the slot machines in the world. They're shutting down indefinitely.

2 cases in the state

They are, in my experience, doo doo heads anyway.
It’s daft this over reaction.

Like the country, ROD is also divided politically. How do we know this ? From several past discussions which quickly devolved around most any subject once a political aspect is introduced. Since ROD is primarily a football forum, peace is kept in the family by avoiding the colorful opinions we might harbor relating to politics.
jmo.

In California they're not even testing you unless you've came into contact with a diagnosed coronavirus patient or if you have symptoms coupled with health risks such as heart disease, lung disease, and diabetes.

So again, there may be more carriers that received Coronavirus through community transmission that will not be eligible for testing at this time.

So does Royal. Got my eye on both.

My only question would revolve around 'closed cases', being that we have read previously about patients who were once considered 'recovered' only to test positive again at a later date.

Some avoid it. Some post articles from politically biased websites like huffington post. Some make veiled political comments and get upset when others express contrary opinions. It would be great if everybody avoided stuff that might spark ideological difference of opinions, but we know that’ll never happen.

I'm going to wait until they go bankrupt and just buy one of their ships.

That's the thing though, what some believe are politically based websites are considered mainstream by others, perhaps you should post a list of what's acceptable and we'll go from there.

Is that her "concerned citizen" halloween costume for 2020?

 

[Force16X]

NO! We are getting a new Panda Express in my small town, you bastid!

John Oliver said they dont serve chinese food there anyway

 

[Force16X]

Just went looking for hand sanitizer on Amazon and it's mostly sold out.


I doubt whether it's the 'fear factor' which motivates preparation so much as just being ready for the unexpected like earthquakes, hurricanes, fires & floods. Coronavirus, for now, is just one more thing added to the list, ... and i'd much rather prepare for my family's well being than explain at a later date why I let them down.

Now the government can create fear and panic from here on by just mentioning a new virus as needed. Well played US govt.

Or we can be consistent with our preparedness and never fear or panic.
