White people aged 18-33 are going to be a death knell for this city.

The closest I've been to Staten Island is taking the ferry but I think I love it.

I suspect the Spectrum news station in Wisconsin has a producer into Gallows humor. The "theme" music for the Coronavirus updates for the last few months has been an instrumental of STP's "Interstate Love song" featuring the lyrics "Breathing is the hardest thing to do..."

A few of my friends are going back to work starting next week so quarantine looks to be winding down here in NYC. I expect things to start opening back up within the next 2-3 weeks with restrictions (that no one will follow of course). Dummies gonna dummy.

When I think of social distancing, I think of Ontario Mills.

One of the people at the forefront of the protests that want North Carolina reopened is going on the record saying he will kill for his rights...

Between NY & MA tourists and dumb hicks who think this isn't a problem, Maine is due for a spike in June.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2020/06/10/arizona-coronavirus-cases-hospitalizations-increase-after-reopening/5332572002/

"Last week, several days saw more than 1,000 newly reported cases. Prior to the past week's dramatic case increases, new cases reported daily have typically been in the several hundreds.

Hospitalizations have steadily risen. Statewide hospitalizations as of Sunday were at 1,266 inpatients in Arizona with suspected and confirmed COVID-19, which was the second highest number, behind Friday, since the state began reporting the data on April 9. The past eight days have seen inpatient hospitalizations statewide for suspected and confirmed COVID-19 eclipse 1,000.


The percentage of positive tests per week increased from 5% a month ago to 6% three weeks ago to 9% two weeks ago, and 12% last week.
With increasing testing, the percent of positive tests out of all tests would ideally decrease, Hanage said."

The New York State Health Department formally recommends wearing a mask to orgies and refraining from eating ass.

The virus has been found in the semen and feces (poop) of people with COVID-19.

Sound advice & all, but find it humorous they need to clarify feces = "poop".

Florida fired its COVID Scientist so she's published her own database linked below that shows far more cases than publicly reported.

Keeping this brief: Wife got a swab on Thursday in advance of tumor removal surgery. They called today to let her know she tested positive. Neither of us are symptomatic. Surgery is postponed (it HAD to be this week based on the tumor medicine she was being zapped with once a month) and she's on a 2 week quarantine. I went to urgent care to get a swab and am awaiting results. I can't go to my parents' house b/c my mom is lung compromised and my niece just moved into my grandparents' empty house for the next 3 months, so I kinda don't have a place to quarantine w/o putting people really out.

If she has it, you definitely have it. Anyone you live with would have it. Don't go anywhere.

I was cognizant enough to not hug any of the older people at the funeral but blankly hugged my mom, not even thinking. Been following every protocol, sanitizer, mask, only going out for essential shit. She's literally been in a hospital working masked 100% of the time, purell entering and leaving rooms, protocol, protocol, protocol. I'm starting to wonder if my doctor's visit last week for my getting winded was Covid and not "CO2" in my blood.

I tested negative, results just popped up in my email. Trying to square away what is next with work and quarantine stuff.

Good to hear. Maybe have your parents/extended family get tested if possible just in case?

NY, NJ, and CT Requiring 2 Week Quarantines

This is fine in theory but how is it going to be enforceable? What if a person is coming in for something that's lasting 2-3 days and is supposed to fly back home in 6 days or a family on vacation for 4 days? No way the front desk/hotel employees are gonna be like, "Hey, you have to quarantine for 2 weeks first before you do anything in our state."
