. Did you guys have weird itchy bumps on your hands prior to this? I thought I was having an alergic reaction or something.

Sounds like what I've had this winter. One finger on one hand broke out the worst. I would start moisturizing, the pain and itchiness would die down, I'd forget to moisturize, and it would break out again. Cortizone 10 is helpful for killing the itchy and painful part, but get the strongest body butter cream you can find, like the kind you have to wear cotton gloves with because it's so greasy, and it will help get rid of it.
 
Hahn confirmed during today's Senate hearing that the 1 million sample per day's worth of test kit has been sent out to local labs. Now that material is not the bottle neck, let's see how much actual testing capacity lcoal authorities can realize. My impression is that NYC somehow has the most trouble spinning up testing capacity.

Where did you read this because it was just confirmed today they wouldn’t meet the goal of 1 million test kits by end of week.
 
@Nonconsentual Pronouns: The 71 year old guy who died in Rocklin, Placer County, California, was treated at Kaiser in nearby Roseville. My doc again told me this, or I heard it from KCBS-AM. Fuck, my fucking wetware is so full of various corona facts that I can't remember where it all comes from. (Plus I have a problem remembering the sources of material, but not the shit itself. Supposedly it's a literal disorder with a name.)

It does seem as if the Deep State / local lodge of Free Globalist Elites / Reptilian Shapeshifters / bureaucratic fuckups / wtf are desperately trying to convince people that "it's just the flu u guize!" as increasing numbers of people drop dead. Fuck, they did the same fucking shit in 1918, even fucking ORDERED large public gatherings to proceed to show there was nothing to fear, with the result that bodies rotted in the streets for months. The good thing today is that we have the internet to give us ready access to vidya of dying people in Wuhan screaming in agony as they slowly rot in high rises with the doors welded shut and sometimes jump from the windows in desperation only to have their corpses torched on the spot. (And then there's Iran, which is a whole other universe of autism. Murika spent billions of dollars and dozens of lives to dislodge the mullahs without success, and they're done in by a plague coupled with their own belief in 7th century religious ideas. Too fucking lulzy.)

And then there's San Francisco:
>zillions of liberals smashed like sardines four to a room into an already densely built city
>liberals elect a bitch nigger from the projects from a family of petty crooks as mayor to prove their wokeness
>said bitch nigger does absolutely nothing about problems like people shitting in the streets and leaving needles everywhere
>a fucking plague comes along and that bitch nigger simply blathers woke horseshit in response

and :optimistic::

>all the woke liberal techies die of the plague, rents come back down, and normal people repopulate the city and the replacement mayor is a Trump Republican.

We can always hope.
Edit: remove OT sperging, sorry u guize...

Remember to pray to Nurgle five times a day so he'll embrace California
 
Well, time to repeat DO NOT TAKE COUNSEL OF YOUR FEARS. Yes, there are cases. But there have been many, many more cases of the "regular" flu, and many, many more deaths.

We have about 235 cases here in the USA, out of a country of about 340 million people. Think. And this virus seems to target elderly people, as well as people with certain already existing conditions. Odds of the average KFer getting this virus are rather low.

Our medical system is a quantum leap better than China's. The utility infrastructure is better than China's.

Use common sense. Wash hands, try to avoid crowds, pay attention to your body.

Just had a thought. Who is whipping up the hysteria? Why? How do they benefit from people freaking out? Think about that.

For my part, am not freaking out, and am much more at risk for this due to age and health issues than most here. I'll be out there tomorrow morning doing my walk. I have a life to live. So do you. Stay tuned to this thread. Believe it's the best place around for good info and analysis. Knowledge is your best protection against hysteria.
 
Local Seattle news reported today that a bunch of concessions workers at Century Link Field (where the Seahawks and Sounders play) tested positive for corona. They think a bunch of people that attended the Seattle v. Dallas XFL game got exposed. I was at that game, lol. Hazzah...

I hope they dropped the basket, shoes, and everything else that touched the deck in to the ocean after making the drop.
Not even counting the current Coronavirus thing, who the fuck still thinks going on these cruise ships is a good idea in this day and age? They always have problems with sickness, food poisening, storms, fires,etc. And your trapped with no hope of rescue because there are 3000 other people on the packed ship.

Yes, that is what Trump and his masters are doing.

Was at Walmart last night to get eggs. Looked around and saw totally empty shelves for bleach, rubbing alcohol, medical gloves. Very little TP but there was all the Clorox wipes you could want.
 
I had to take a family member to Urgent Care tonight. While waiting for them to come out, was talking with the receptionists. They mentioned it's been hard for their office to get supplies and people have been stealing their hand sanitizers and face masks. I don't live in the ghetto. I live in pretty nice suburban america. I didn't expect shit like that.

If I personally saw shit like that, I'd deck that person. I went to the Dollar Store the other day. They have soap for a $1. Not that tiny travel shit, but 16oz. Its not hard fam.

Edit:
Well, I'm fucked now. I swear if I get it I'll post proof.
I'm in the Wasatch Front area. I'm fuck too fam.

DENVER (KDVR) – Two "presumptive positive" cases of the novel coronavirus have been confirmed in Colorado, Gov. Jared Polis said Thursday afternoon.
According to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, the first patient is an out-of-state man in his 30s. He was visiting Summit County.
The man spent time in Italy in mid-February, Polis said. One of his travel companions during that trip tested positive for the virus.
On Feb. 29, the man flew to Denver International Airport, rented a vehicle and traveled to a condo in Summit County. He did not show symptoms at the time, Polis said.
The governor said the man was in Summit County for outdoor activities, but could not say whether he visited ski resorts.
The man was spending time with his fiancee and two friends. The friends are Denver residents.
The friends and fiancee are currently in quarantine.
On March 3, the man developed symptoms and went to Saint Anthony Summit Medical Center in Frisco.
Polis said the man was later taken via private vehicle to a hospital in the Denver metro area so he could be at a lower elevation.
The man is in isolation and will remain there until cleared by public health officials.
Officials did not say which hospital in the Denver area he is receiving treatment at, but it is in Jefferson County.
