Same thing Anderson Cooper said March 4. Lots o’ people got it wrong, hey?
I am absolutely convinced that this is what will happen. "See? What was the big deal? I told you it was all a hoax", completely ignoring that the social distancing and stay-at-home orders are what kept the numbers lower. Wait for it.

Can you provide some evidence 6 weeks later as it pertains to this article on testing that the Prez is slowing the process?
"On the recommendation of the White House CoronaVirus Task Force, and upon consultation with the Governor's of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, I have asked the CDC to issue a strong Travel Advisory, to be administered by the Governors," the president tweeted.
Reuters is saying recovered South Koreans are re-testing positive for the virus. That is not good. Hopefully it is an anomaly of some sort.
Elon Musk claims he'll be distributing 250K masks and 1K ventilators. Hope this is real. Musk has a history of overly optimistic timelines, but good to see private citizens stepping in to fill the void.https://cleantechnica.com/2020/03/21/elon-musk-should-have-1000-ventilators-next-week-250k-n95-masks-for-hospitals-tomorrow-cleantechnica-exclusive/
I'm shocked that Elon Musk's statements fall far short of reality!!!
...here we go...
Had a meeting yesterday where our covid protocols were brought up. From leadership, basically we have a few masks, shields and gowns that will be divided up when needed. Recycled and reused. This is of course for people with developmental and behavioral issues. So this comes with increased chances of infection for anyone servicing them.When I brought up the facts that the only way one of our residents gets covid is if one of our staff has it, what's the protocol then? They asked me to elaborate...If one staff is infected more staff is likely. Were already short staffed. Our dsps make 10 dollars an hour. When someone goes down, were going to see them drop like flies.What is the protocol for when 80% of staff doesn't show. Crickets.
Yup, you guys absolutely get the shaft. What happens when you guys drop like flies is what happens in nursing homes in NJ when staff is overwhelmed. People get abandoned and left sitting in their own feces like caged animals.The guys at that meeting need to have a plan. The alternative is that there is no home staff for folks, and they are left to fend for themselves... and probably die. Tell them to calculate the lawsuits they'd be open to if there isn't adequate staffing. Hopefully, legal counsel is in the room to hear what the upper management has to say.
In my job, I work primarily with nursing homes. Obviously, this is an absolute nightmare scenario for them.
