loneliness?

No, food source.

Good for them...

Now, are they FDA, CDC, OSHA compliant?

You had to ask, right?

OK. Don't say you haven't been warned.

I'm not saying it's not possible. And the number of reports is very troubling. I'm just saying that I'll believe it when there's concrete evidence.

Great! I'm awaiting your stats in the other thread I just opened. Group pressure and all that ... 🙂

@Aqua-Letifer said in Paris shuts down tighter.:

I don't understand that. Won't it make the off times even more crowded?

I think so - in fact horribly crowded.

They should make it 6am to 10pm. If you're serious, you can go outside those hours. But the vast majority won't.

8-10a and 7-10p will now be crazy busy.

@Jolly Sure there are, but the reason behind the lines they draw don't follow the politics of the other two branches. Really at all.

In some cases they're encouraged to work part time, since that way their employer can avoid giving them as many benefits.

No need, Easter is only 5 days away.

@George-K said in Meghan will only work with A-List directors:

taken seriously as an actress.

Stop wearing those silly looking hats for a start.

@Aqua-Letifer said in The Gaspasser:

Are we going to be in a position where we're going to be able to see the next outbreak coming far enough in advance that we can shut down soon enough to not cause hospital saturation? I very much doubt that.

We should be able to take a shot at calculating the answer to that question now.

Hopefully that is part of the plan used to turn the world back on.

Yes, blocking kind of misses the point here.

Why, oh why, is President Trump wasting his time tweeting about stuff like that.

Is this really the type of person who should be having the most powerful position in the world???

(Yes, I know most politicians probably act like this in private, but doing it in public does not do him any favors or make him look better)

He's a New Yawker...

He's an UNFILTERED New Yawker.

Well, true...

Well, so. LOL

I guess I just dont get it.

I am embarrassed for him when he does stuff like that. I dont know if he truly thinks people are impressed or understands that many people are laughing at him, not with him. It just does not seem appropriate for a world leader to do.

Yes, world leaders are usually above that sort of thing.

It is nice to find a world leader who knows his place.

He is not above that sort of thing.

In fact he is not above much at all.

In that way he might remind you of Mother Theresa.

So they go from ordering mobile morgues (a smart, prudent, and unfortunately necessary move) to planning on digging mass graves in the park? Because that makes so much more sense than renting more mobile morgues or even commercial refrigerated trailers and/or shipping containers. Instead of trying to get the old Krasdale refrigerated warehouse up and running, let’s go straight to bodies wrapped in Hefty bags buried in the park.

There’s being prudent and planning for worst case scenarios and then there’s hell, I don’t even know what to call this, but the situation is bad enough as it is and doesn’t need public officials imagining scenarios orders of magnitude worse than it is and feeding those those same thoughts to a ratings hungry press and a confused and scared public.

I’ve seen some cool predictive visualizations based on this data and the R(0) of certain states. Some states have the R(0) down to close to 1 already. The models are pretty spot on 3 days out.

@Axtremus said in Covid-19 Music:

Thanks, @Jeff. I meant to ask how that “music” generates using the biology of SARS-COV-2 as input, compares to other “music” generated using similar method/algorithm using the biology of other viruses as inputs.

It seems I must have given the wrong impression Ax. I'm not the engineer who generated this musical interpretation. That would be Markus Buehler and his colleagues at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. I apologize for the confusion.
