Wife and daughter are nurses one in rock land ny and one in north jersey my daughter got covd19 and recovered from it then did her 2week quarantine and has jumped back into the fire working at jacoby hospital in the city.
Looks like things are slowing down. Even though I have seen and lived through cov19 in my area I can’t help but think this is more of a Robert Muller 19 deep state operation Just my gut feeling. Do know people who dined but still think it’s the deep state

Hello,

I think there are some awesome people in this country, regardless of political affiliation. Of course, there are some bad people as well.We are seeing great people do great things.

I’m fortunate to have a stay at home job. Like a lot of people I’m worried about catching the virus and losing my job.I have not been to a store in five weeks. I do go out for running take a drive every few days. As the days go by I’m starting to wonder if it is essential to have everything locked down.

What worries me is our political system. I don’t believe that our government and media is doing everything possible for us. It seems like one party is spending more time accusing the other party of being wrong. It doesn’t matter if it’s a Democrat or Republican.
 
Another observation of mine during this "Stay at home and watch TV" period is how these media (News LOL) outlets truly work.

I was never a big TV viewer (other than some sports) before this, but was always aware of how deep-reaching the perpetual line of total BS they spewed was. Now, I have a front row seat for this show:

*HEADLINE!! (Big Scary National Covid-19 news)

*SUB-LINES (Usually how minorities were always scary, but now they are MORE at risk for this disease) attaching yet another stigma to them

*Big pharma commercial saving you from constipation, but you may die from liver failure. (Ask your doctor).

*HEY! Someone saved a puppy!

*Death rates in nursing homes are through the roof.

*Big pharma commercial

*Weather

*PSA featuring celebrities telling us "We're all in this together" Yet these a$$holes have millions of dollars in the bank with no worries.

*Sports, and goodnight.

Am I the only one that thinks this (Crap) is just see-through brainwashing BULL$HIT?
 
Here in Georgia our governor decided to open the state tomorrow. Pray for us.

My thinking, and it may be wrong, but I have said this since early March:

The US is not China where they can beat people back inside to enforce a quarantine. (Thank God)

But, that being the case, the sporadic and uncoordinated measures in the US will result in everyone being exposed even after the moronic shut-down of the economy.

Having some states shut down, and others open is like having a "peeing section" in a public pool.

Who doesn’t love puppies!? All part of that game theory, if you keep winning I won’t play, but if you let me win 1/3 of the time I’ll keep playing bc I can potentially beat you and maybe even the score.(never will though but you’ve made me believe you!) If every news story was negative, depressing, fear-mongering, why would we even tune in!?

Aren’t most celebrities just the worst people, basically Hollywood politicians. Pisses me off that they go on and on about this and it just builds their brand, their social status and following/audience even more. I can understand using them to say, stay safe, healthy, social distance etc, they’re used for much worse and people will follow whatever their favorite celebs says. On the other end of it, they’ve got millions, some billions, some probably don’t even know what they have and all they can do is sing some lame a$$ song! Why don’t they help their communities, give to first responders, help local businesses, idk but they can do so much with what’s been given to them it’s just silly!

SPORTS!! While I don’t follow them myself, it’s provably the one area where there isn’t much to “make up.”

It’s really sad, honestly, I see through it and I’m sure most everybody does, but “Hey it’s the news right!? I gotta watch it or I won’t know anything!” Yeah.. I haven’t had any form of cable for years, if I want news I’ll gladly find it myself.

Told my wife: If I have to see this freak one more time spewing broken English and flashing 7" green fingernails, the TV is getting thrown in a dumpster.

"Don't take XXXXX if you're allergic to XXXXX"

Really??? Although I'd guess a large part of the necessity of all that mumbo-jumbo is in response to our overly litigious population and it's affection for lawsuits at every perceived injustice.

Our idea’s on this pandemic may differ but gosh damn that was funny... got a literal laugh out loud from that a 2 in the morning.

I do agree with that. If you want to make a forced quarantine work. Shut down everyone at once... and travel... is the only way it would work. All i think the way it was handled did was slow the spread to keep our hospitals from being completely overwhelmed

Hahah, like all the “overpopulation” theorists, coming up with the ideas but won’t do it themselves..

Certainly a decisive poster to hold up. Not the best way to convey the message. Any Treky peeps here? YouTube

Truth is we as a society do this every day in many different ways. Risks and death are a part of society and life.
 
Well, I found out for certain that the company that I work for monitors all employee social media accounts.

I'm one of the lucky few in the music industry. Wife works for our state (fraud and enforcement investigator, don't talk about shady ####, I have to tell her if I see it), and is working from home. I'm on unemployment, and between the state, and federal that just hit, I'm making pretty decent money actually. Not tour pay, but way more than the average job will pay. Many many many of my colleagues aren't so lucky. Their bands pay them straight and 1099 at end of year, so can't claim, or run as an S-corp and all were denied for SBA, PPP, EIDL yet you have assholes like Ruth Chris, Shake Shack, and the like getting 30 mil between the two. Something like 3% of my industry actually got some kind of assistance, and the rest denied, or just in limbo.

Concerts are a long ways off, and will never be the same. Gone will be the days of a GA floor, or completely packed houses. Masks, will be required, some sort of legal wavier when you buy the ticket stating you will not hold artist, venue, or promoter liable if you get sick, every other seat sold (like the airlines are doing currently), etc. Any and all festivals for the year are cancelled, even if not announced, and summer tours are starting to go away, I'll be surprised if my work that I have lined up for the year even happens.

I was in the middle of it in Europe when they started shutting down countries. The group I was with at the time, we were on our way to two days off in Amsterdam when the travel ban press conference happened. 10 minutes later, tour was cancelled and 2 hours later we had 16 flights rebooked and out of Amsterdam about 5 hours after that. We had a person come down with it, and luckily they made it through, but spent time in ICU. We all went to isolation ourselves immediately after coming home (he didn't present symptoms till we were home for 2 days but for safety's sake we all did it anyways). Another tour I had friends on over there, isn't so lucky, almost the entire tour came down with it, and many of them were in hospital on ventilators. One guy even died and brought back 3 times in the hospital. Another, he just got to fly home yesterday after being stranded there for 4 weeks. I've lost 5 friends now to this virus, and countless others are sick, and doing worse each day. This #### is real, and if you think it's a conspiracy, you can just not interact with me. I've seen what it's doing first hand.
