I'm starting this thread as a side discussion of all things Corona Virus related. I understand that this is going to be discussed in almost all other topic threads but we could collect news and other items here. 

 

At work, many conferences have been cancelled.

NBA - Suspended.

NHL - About to be suspended. 

NCAA March Madness - Playing - no crowd. 

 

Political Rallies have been cancelled. 

Travel bans. 

 

Rita Wilson and Tom Hanks tested positive. They're in Australia where testing is available. If they were in the US, they wouldn't have been tested. 

Somebody, down there, should pay attention.

 

 

 

Sunday’s cases include:

• 2 cases in the Interlake-Eastern health region
• 1 case in the Northern health region
• 1 case in the Prairie Mountain Health region
• 3 cases in the Southern Health region
• 11 cases in the Winnipeg health region

21? Guessing now?

Defiance of science. 
And now we can see that Trump is deliberately subjecting his loyal subjects, at his rallies, to the very likely potential of catching the Virus in order to achieve herd immunity. This would appear to be calculated. He’s willing to sacrifice them to test an unproven theory. There is no proof this will work with Covid-19 and yet, he’s willing to give it a go. This explains why the Republicult dictionary is missing one word...morality.
 

Went for a test today, Definitely a tickler of the nasal passage.

Thought i saw Noellers car. AB plates with WBB stickers plastered all over it.

I especially loved the ending. I know he's a professional actor but it did seem he was authentically frustrated at the end.

That’s why the word morality is not in their dictionary.

 

Little bit of morbid numbers.
According to https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/, the US passed 200,000 dead.
I've got a spreadsheet going back to Aug 25. At that time US showed 181,485 dead to Canada's 9,086 dead. I was curious if Canada would reach 10K dead (gain of under 1K) before the US hit 200K (gain of just less than 20K).

Well folks, it isn't even close. Since Aug 25, the US has had 18,712 deaths compared to Canada's 102. US has just under 9 times the population of Canada.

Long enuf for the "For a good time" marker to have faded from the bathroom stall.
