The CFR is 5%, Imperial College believes that the IFR is less than half a percent, which is obviously still bad.

meant like staples and shit where I was getting TP a couple weeks ago

just realized they're probably not open anymore..

Office supply stores for TP ?

At least he answered the bell, unlike the FL governor leaving the beaches open.

I've taken to making a playlist with nothing but songs with gang vocals to trick myself into thinking I'm in a large crowd. Morale is low.

There was no demand for a vaccine after it burnt itself out in a few months.

I'm not advocating for starting things back up, just for taking things a handful of weeks at time as opposed to three months.

I don't necessarily disagree, but we don't know to what degree the Chinese measures were actually necessary. The west coast seems to be coping without going that far, NY not so much.

That's an assumption. New cases could start to level off tomorrow for all we know. I certainly wouldn't bet on it, but it's entire possible the peak isn't that far away.

It feels assumption-driven rather than by evidence.

Could pretty easily have a four month season and playoffs in November in this scenario.

Better late than never I guess. Also, I wish I still worked at Abbott, shit has gotta be fascinating up there.

Toronto just banned public events until June 30. So I would set your expectations around that. Can't say I necessarily agree with setting dates out that far. Not that I think it won't ultimately be necessary, but why not take it a few weeks at a time?

Idk man, the country is still way too fractured in how this is being handled.

Is it really?

The Wire has become escapism in that I can watch it and be reminded of normal non-existential government cheesedickery.

It's going right to rent. But I have been trying to send money that I would have spent at bars and on ubers and the like to businesses that have had to close their doors and employee relief funds where I can.

This seems like a really bad idea without having any real idea how long immunity lasts.

Someone in my family had to go to urgent care for a chest x-ray. What a world that I was relieved it was a cancer screening...(They're fine btw)

It's getting increasingly difficult to get out of bed. I had spent the last few months getting myself in pretty good shape and training to run a marathon and now it's just....nothing. Bright side, good a year as any to have a shitty spring.

That guy can do no wrong until proven otherwise, so I'm pretty amped.

I managed to finish dune in about 5 days which is no small feat for me.

I’m going to need every therapist in the city after this
