Posted by John, Please respect the request.
Thank You and God Bless all ...

Joking and politics aside, let's have a Corona Thread.
Let's have some REASONABLE discussion on this.

Walked out empty handed will go back tomorrow at opening bell.

Ray, I don't get it either. Maybe these people all live hand to mouth. All I know is I have 15 acres. 8 in fields. I will plant the whole thing in vegs this year if there's no food. I got a herd of deer and a flock of turkeys. If I have to kill something, I will. Oh, and BTW, I have over 10,000 rounds of ammo for every one of my long guns and pistols. I'm good.

Cannot believe it will come to that though

Don't be too hard on people who use humor to deal with the fear of this virus. This virus is quite contagious. Press is creating a frenzy. This virus has a 4% fatality rate that means 96% do not die! SARS is a corona virus with a 40% fatality rate but not as contagious.Even the health care system can't seem to decide how to react to this as far as how to protect nurses from the virus. The protocols are changing by the day! I think they should follow the most stringent
protocols possible as my wife is an ER nurse and if the first responders get sick we are all in trouble. Spain just shut down the country. Stay home, wash hands (25 seconds) often, stay safe

Funny stuff, businesses will fail, hourly wage earns will not make the rent, students lives turned upside down, not to mention their parents lives that relied on them being in school so they could work; funny stuff. No cure for stupid.
