This could get REALLY bad. If just half the US population catches it, and 8% die (like in Italy), we're talking over 13 million people. Medical protocols need to be decided upon now, not later. Polivies will be harsh. People will be left to die. There is no good solution.

I work a soul-crushing job dealing with the general public every day. It's just a matter of time before I get infected. I'm 56 and am in very good shape, so I should survive. About 3 days ago I sent my wife up to our Northern Michigan wilderness cabin to ride it out.
I already feel like shit and have been dealing with a dull headache for two days now. At this point I just don't give a fuck. All I care about is that my wife is safe. She's fine. Bring it on. Fuck you Covid-19, you cowardly little bitch. Make my day! |

Mn went into shelter in place a few hours ago. The order is nothing more than show. The rules dont stop anybody from doing anything.

Took another heavy fall today when my shoes with the slippery soles shot out from
under me outside the meat market. And once again, no broken bones, just a bruise on my hip, and some scraped off my left thumb and the wrist. It seems that their is a purpose...as yet unrevealed...for my existence, so perhaps I need not fear this freakin' virus thingy. Unless, of course, that freakin' virus thingy is what my miserable end is to be. We shall see.
