I may be older than most. I may say things not everybody will like.
But despite all of that. I will never lower myself to the level of Liars, Haters, Cheats, and Hypocrites.

Interesting read. BTW, I do not blame the president per se, his emphasis is where it has always been-on the economy. Problem is, this virus is much like foreign affairs, the president doesn't always get to keep his attention where he wanted it to be. The question becomes, when, not if, he changes focus:

I'm off to work in a few minutes, leaving you with this link. Sorry about repeat links from same source, but it's the links there and graphs that are garnering my attention.
I'm not freaked out over this disease, but it's 'not just the flu,' which is bad enough as everyone now knows:

The graph about 'with preventative measures and without,' is telling. It's also why it's important that people stop the politics and get their thinking hats on. It should make sense to anyone who thinks that vaccinating their children or grandchildren is a good idea.

It's too serious to be funny.
At least, I think so.

Health minister Nadine Dorries has confirmed she has tested positive for coronavirus.
The Conservative MP is now reportedly self isolating.
According to reports revealed on Tuesday night Ms Dorries, who represents Mid Bedfordshire, fell ill last Friday.
She said in a statement to the BBC: "I can confirm I have tested positive for coronavirus.
"As soon as I was informed I took all advised precautions and have been self isolating at home.
"Public Health England has started detailed contact tracing and the department and my parliamentary office are closely following their advice."

Just heard on our local news that there are two new cases in Wisconsin bringing it up to 3, and they BOTH had just returned from traveling outside of Wisconsin to areas where the virus is known to be present and spreading.
So that's how it'll spread here. People who don't care, dragging it into our state and spreading it around.

One day at a time. That's what I ask the Lord for each night. One more day to share with my family and friends. HE will decide. Besides using common sense, good hygiene practices, there's nothing anyone can do but wait it out.
Driving one's self insane with fear isn't really living though. Just saying.
“When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one, an unpitied sacrifice in a contemptible struggle.” Edumnd Burke
Exactly the same pattern as here.
The earlier UK cases we'd traced were all, every single one of them, of people who'd returned from overseas hotspots, like China, Iran, Italy. We'd almost got to the 100-mark before the first case turned up of contracting it within the UK. The vast majority are still of people contracting it abroad.
Listening to phone-in programmes as I do (usually LBC, a London radio station) ... I hear of example after example of people landing here at Heathrow, Gatwick, and other such UK airports ... who are just waved through, able to enter the UK without even the suggestion of a check of them.
Where Heathrow's concerned, that's especially bad. The vast majority of travellers having the UK as their destination, then go to the London Underground, and go travelling on the Tube, to anywhere in London or beyond. That automatically makes the Tube trains involved potential carriers.
Anyone bothering ... call up a map of the London Underground, and check out the line serving the Heathrow terminals ... the Piccadilly Line. It alone stretches clear across London ... forget about interchange stations !! You can go from Heathrow Terminal 4 to Cockfosters (SW to N) ... right across London, in the same carriage, in under an hour. You'd be in the immediate company of maybe 30-40 people in that carriage during the journey. Surfaces may become contaminated, air ditto. Etc etc.
That's just one train. Six per hour, every hour, every day ...

Washington is all a twitter that they should work from home.

There’s a lot of older folks working at Walmart and lots of people of questionable hygiene shopping.

We had a Commons vote today (one voting on whether to accept Huawei technology !). Boris suffered a Conservative rebellion against his drive to adopt it ... but won nonetheless.
I think we'll get to the point (are we there already ?) where we say, 'Keep MP's in the Commons, throw away the key, and they can self-isolate en masse'.

It's weird being in a less populated area. While there are near 60k people here during peak times, the next town/city of same size or bigger is over 40 miles away. The counties are also huge in sq miles, with that in mind, I was a bit shocked to find that with 8 cases in all AZ, 5 are in my county, one of which today they said is community infection, a worker in a school.

Yep, it would make more sense to have done that earlier, but no country wants that big of an economic hit. IF they prevent/mitigate the community spread, people will come back and say, "It wasn't that big of a deal, not that many died-like the flu." So, better more die, then try to mitigate, so that you don't look like a 'sky is falling' person.
