Seems like we're doing our best to catch Italy in confirmed cases. On 3/17 we had 6,479 confirmed cases... :nonono:

Democrats trying to use the bill to pass some other un relative crap.

The only real hope is to get everyone wearing masks soon as possible. It's a longshot, but the alternatives are horrific.

All this thanks to intensive animal 'farming' and wild animal poaching. There's more like this waiting for us too.

"Making the most of it".
"There are bigger threat in this world, poverty and hunger."

Maybe we need to get their names out there or give them hats saying "I am a murderer".

A more practical way - they also need to sign the paper that if you insist going out and get infected, you will be put on the least priority list when there is a shortage of medical resource. We will be treating everyone else before we treat you.

Dems added some items that have nothing to do with this on their version which they shouldn't be. GOP did the same thing on their version by adding abortion items in their bill and trying to give $500 billion to corporations with no strings attached, with no communication as to who it was given to for 6 months.

Good for him, although the chances he wrote that himself are close to zero

I agree 100%, but it’s amazing how many people still screw up these apologies, you can tell they’re gritting their teeth just to manage a “I’m sorry if you were offended,” “I made a immature decision,” or “That’s not who I am.”

At least he 100% acknowledged the reality of what he did, the impact of his actions, and what is going on right now.

So no Covid bro lol.

Great news! Hope you and your gf start feeling better also man! I have 2 English bulldogs myself, you have a good looking pup

Wherever you are.. at what point did or do you feel your local "two weeks" began?

Personally I thought we were just starting week 1 where I live. Of doing it more for real.

Is your local "two weeks" or more over? In the middle? Or just started? (or other)

I ask this also completely aware that "two weeks" may not be enough, and some places/sectors will be down much longer, but that's not what the question is about.

More about when you thought was your local start date?

I think in Austin, TX, it started last week. We were social distancing at the beginning of last week. My company started the Friday before. Today Austin issued a shelter in place order. Dallas did a couple days ago. Still no deaths in Travis County which is Austin, according to this, https://coronavirus.1point3acres.com/ but I think 12 total in Texas.
