5fouls Posted March 20, 2020 Report Share Posted March 20, 2020 More and more NBA teams are getting tested. Lakers and 76ers just announced positive results. My question is why are world class athletes, who presumably are healthy enough to fight the virus, getting tested when so many of the general population still cannot get tested. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rd726 Posted March 20, 2020 Report Share Posted March 20, 2020 My kids asked why I don’t get to be home too. Told them I wish I could (spend time with family and SOO much I need to get done around the house) but hospital lab never closes so I can’t be. I know they knew that, I think it was just one of those things that hey we are all off why aren’t you...oh yeah😕 Anyway..... ready for this to be behind us. Take care everyone and be smart about hygiene,etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were told if symptoms appear dont go to dr or er, have them come out to the car to test him. I am one that does not stress easily, right now my stress level is very high. As of now we just sit tight and everyone but me have been home quarantined since Sunday but my job wont allow Adding your family to my prayers.

NotIThatLives Posted March 20, 2020 Report Share Posted March 20, 2020 If you guys have been really paying attention, details of Senate inside trading/selling off, now 2 nights ago I was seeing wall street guys sayi g they were about ready to buy back in. Dow goes up yesterday. Curious what today hold, the next 2 weeks, 2 months. I'm about 49% conspiracy theorist, 51% pragmatist. My fearless prediction, only because in my trust in God, is this too will pass, and fairly soon. In the meantime, take precautions but remain at peace. If you have any faith in God, read Psalm 91, it will bring great comfort. https://biblehub.com/nlt/psalms/91.htm 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milehiiu Posted March 20, 2020 Report Share Posted March 20, 2020 Castle Rock is a town South of Denver. Known for the star that gets lit during the holidays. High on the huge rock, the town is named after. Can be seen for a distance, and for travelers on I-25. Will be lit beginning on Monday as a becon of hope : Castle Rock firefighters prepare to re-light iconic star Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a guy on CNN last night that tested positive but before leaving quarantine had to give 5 negative results. Is data skewed because of that or because so many high profile people getting tested without symptoms. Not disputing just wondering if those situations impact over results Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not disputing just wondering if those situations impact over results The link just compiles the data reported by states. So I guess it depends on how a state reports. I didnt post it because it was a study done by the chinese but supposedly the chinese have had a significant number of false positives. IMHO, I think this was here in December and a significant number of people have been exposed and have probably already had it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also heard a podcast from a Dr. That thinks many Flu B, positives were actually Corona. Not sure but I can see how 1 might think that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enough of this two tiered justice system. Fridays market looks to start up. Will be interesting to see if the gains hold throughout the day. I think we could go down a little more. If we rally here, watch for a restest of the lows. Do think the worst is behind us and there are excellent bargains to be had. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Money and fame always bring with it privilege. Whether in life or courtroom or in healthcare. Quite honestly I want all the superstars tested because each time one of them tests positive it probably helps thousands actually take it more seriously.

At the height of a great bull market you want me to dump all your positions Mr/Mrs Senator? Yes...now! they reply....their broker sells positions and immediately starts selling their own because selling at that time would never make sense unless someone knew something. Shoot the one's husband is President of NYSE. Can't believe she would take the risk. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny, I never saw this on the news. IMO the panic is coming because we didn't acknowledge it was here and it got ahead of us.

Lostin76 Posted March 20, 2020 Report Share Posted March 20, 2020 I have all of my staff and faculty working remotely from home. We are now approaching 4,000 cases in NYC. It's not safe for them to commute, even though the subs are much less crowded. Some of my staff are fairly young - in their 20s - and this is really freaking them out. I have one research assistant who has asked if he can return to his parents house in Iowa and work remotely from there. Poor kid, he just moved to NYC 6 months ago and thought he was living the dream. On a positive note, my wife and I walked to our local Mexican place last night after placing a carryout order. It was a beautiful spring evening - the trees are starting to bloom here. When we got there, the staff already had our order together and we were all happy to see each other. They are now selling quarts of their frozen margaritas and man did they taste good! We left them a 50% tip, b/c I consider what they are doing hazard pay worthy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of my business but curious because although I don’t drink now when I was young a quart of margaritas wouldn’t have lasted my girlfriend and I maybe an hour lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jv1972iu Posted March 20, 2020 Report Share Posted March 20, 2020 (edited) Cuomo closes the state of New York. Everyone stays home except essential services workers. ** Maybe close is the wrong word. He said 100% workforce reduction. He had an entire list of rules regarding what people need to do and not do. There will be penalties, fines for not following them.
