Although you may be feeling anxious, scared or like the “walls are closing in”, panic is the best possible reaction during a crisis. Keep it up…good job! Perhaps decreasing your medications would help…

Hey. Bok Choi or pak choi is a mix between a lettuce and cabbage. Excellent stir-fry candidate. Onions garlic fresh ginger soy sauce and the pakchoi in a really hot frying pan or wok and your in for a nice tasty veg. Also nice if you add other vegetables meat or fish.

we’re on lockdown here
things are getting nasty
we are going towards the peak of the crisis
take this seriously as they are saying 35% of the infected get it more serious than the other 65%
over 3000 deaths so far and climbing day by day
they said on the tv today that for every confirmed case there are probably 10 others which go undiagnosed and with only slight symptoms

What’s the age group on most of these , Sammy?
Elderly and kids yet.

Got on my folks today, they’re getting a kitchen renovation and ain’t happening for months.
But she has to go to Menards to buy a fawcet and garb disposal.
I think you guys need to stay in the house.

I can’t find the source now, but it was recently reported that somewhere around half of the cases in NY hospitals are in the 18-49 age group.

Plenty of people in very serious condition that are not on the higher risk groups. Every person has a small chance to get hit especially hard, regardless of age or health.

In L.A. county, similar numbers of infected, although I don’t know the numbers of hospitalized/ severe condition patients ATM.

Russia shut down their borders early in this mess.
Their president has a quick grasp of threats to his people and a opposition that has little access to their media.

Yeah its surprising they don’t have it nor none of China’s allies.

I have heard a different story from a close friend in the states that is Russian. Her family is still there. The Chinese have encroached on the eastern Russian border for many years. Putin is a master at propaganda.

Because of my illness last week, my dr wants me to stay home for 7 to 10 days after symptoms subside. He called me to let me know he would write a note and he wanted to see how my son was doing after 2 weeks of the squirts. Well anyway he starts talking about Corona. He casually mentions that he thinks millions will die bc india fucked when it catches on there. He insisted I stay home as long as I can afford to.

Sounds like solid advice.

Reminds me of the expression “There are no atheists in fox holes” or to paraphrase “Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition” … No that’s not quite right…

Cheers
