Pandemic Reading
I've yet to find a book I want to go through, too stressed. Wanted to pick up Say Nothing on the troubles for a long time but...not the topic I want to get into at the moment.

McPherson's Battle Cry of Freedom I couldn't put down. 20+ years old and still canon.

For people that didn’t dig one thing in here was pritzker asked Abbott for home state preference which they said they’d oblige.

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/29/us/politics/coronavirus-liberty-university-falwell.html just a Perfect example of how trolling is not a leadership tactic, then the pathetic attempt to shirk responsibility for what happens next.

Are you sure you aren’t thinking of DeBlasio re: comments? Cuomo definitely made mistakes due to his ego with deblasio but I don’t remember him saying anything that made things worse. But you are right, I’ve been harping that NYS acted too slowly. Inslee, by contrast, has done a tremendous job.

Lol essentially tied because of one poll where he had a 2 point lead.

illinois won’t hit 10k tests a day for another ten days, which is incredibly frustrating.

I would assume the body would be able to prevent it from storing in the throat as it kills it, avoiding the main spread. even acting as a vessel, no where near as bad since upon hand washing it is then removed.

Just keep in mind it got so bad due to months of unknown community transmission. In several months we’ll have much more testing capabilities built out as well as infrastructure to handle. Doesn’t mean it won’t be bad but there will be greater opportunity to handle even if behavior is more lax. This Abbott labs test if it can scale up production quickly is a game changer.

Chicago May have had a decent test bump but shocked how far behind we are on daily pace. Hoping Abbott comes into play here.

New York makes a hospital in a week through conversion, Chicago can do same. One of the reasons I think China building a hotel from scratch wasn’t that different from US capabilities, we have infrastructure in place.

Somewhat good news, "only" 433 positive tests compared to 650 yesterday in illinois.

Right, and especially in Chicago...do we want Boeing to shed all of those jobs? But also...the extra UI benefits are a major portion of this bill and those are not loans. Much of the corporate relief will be paid back, as it looks like it is just formalizing a process that the FED was going to do anyway.

probably not the most exciting thing but seems like a perfect fit for places like berkeley research group or any big disputes and investigations work.

Who are you referring to? They are reporting these rules for China or that Spain is close to making those decisions?
