Yup, we're back to being good on TP and flour.  Yeast is now the issue, but we managed to find some.

Oh, and tonic water might be an issue in the near future.  I've got plenty though, should be enough to last me the remainder of this quarantine.

About 35 minutes by train.


And yeah, I heard about NYC doing them now. I've never been in a big hurry to go to NYC, and I'm certainly not now.
Imagine the trip you could have in your boat.  Lake Michigan, Lake Erie, Erie Canal, Hudson River, New York City!

If a restaurant can open why not any business with distancing 

hopefully they will follow soon

They just about all are except nightclubs and bars and amusement parks.  Movies will be open with distancing.

I presume out local strip clubs fall under the nightclub thing but he didn't want to mention them.  Atlanta has a LOT of strip clubs for some reason.  Some are very high end apparently.

Interesting piece...

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/20/opinion/coronavirus-testing-pneumonia.html

Apparently COVID-19 can cause you to basically develop undetected pneumonia, to the point where your oxygen levels are significantly down, before you notice any shortness of breath. But then once you start feeling short of breath, the pneumonia is advanced and you're likely to need a vent. But if you catch the hypoxia early, and treat it, it's much less likely to advance and kill you...

I'll be interested if there's a point when financial incentives overwhelm whatever sort of news judgement has been deployed to this point. It would be far more profitable for our information companies to downplay what's going on. Wonder if that starts influencing it at some point given the budget shortfalls they're facing. (Granted, that damage might already be done)

I suppose the same could be said for medical companies. Hospitals likely gonna be feeling it financially until they can get more regular patients in there.

Hospitals in my area are laying off large numbers of nurses and support staff already.  They're empty, preparing for a wave of COVID patients that never came.  In the meantime, they canceled all elective surgeries, which are the profitable ones. And Mayo is facing $3 billion in losses.  

Lots of lessons to be learned here.

If she were in NY/NJ it'd be different.

Which is one of the lessons we need to learn-- don't use a sledgehammer when the scalpel is the correct tool.  It's okay to treat areas and regions differently.

This was our one shot, and in some ways, we've cried wolf.  The public won't put up with this again.

We do it religiously on projects at work.  Especially product roll-outs.  We capture them and review them when we begin the next product dev cycle.  I'd expect the various governments to do the same.  If not, I'll gladly send them my own post mortem dissertation on all of their failures for this go-round. :)
