But wait, everyone is constantly clamoring that EVERYONE should be able to be TESTED!!
I guess it works now for a clamoring and rallying point against the Trump administration..... when every stupid drone that wants to be tested, can be, I guess that they will move on to some other point of outrage.....
You can usually smell the markets before you see them.
Especially if you’re downwind.
It’s a sickly, almost sweet and nauseating smell of death. Once inside, the fetid stench — made worse by blistering temperatures and zero refrigeration — is overwhelming, and it is places like this where the deadly coronavirus originated.
In stall after stall, a mix of live and dead animals, which run the gamut from the known (pig, ox, duck, chicken) to the rare or unknown due to the condition of the carcass — stare back at you. In the wet areas of the market — usually reserved for fish and sea creatures and where the ground is slick with water and often blood — the stink is worse. The animals that have not yet been dispatched by the butcher’s knife make desperate bids to escape by climbing on top of each other and flopping or jumping out of their containers (to no avail). At least in the wet areas, the animals don’t make a sound. The screams from mammals and fowl are unbearable and heartbreaking.
These unregulated and usually filthy markets are found all over Asia and Africa.
In Laos, I came across a section of the local (i.e. not for tourist) market full of dead bats as well as live creatures like birds, turtles, fish and other unfortunate critters.-- excerpt, rest at link above --
Coronavirus is nothing to sneeze at. But so far, widespread panic may not be justified.
You should know:
Almost all of the reported coronavirus deaths in the U.S. happened in long-term care facilities in Washington State. And almost all of those occurred at the same facility.
Most people who get coronavirus have mild or no symptoms.
No young or middle-age people have died of coronavirus in the U.S.
Most around the world diagnosed from January-March 1 have already recovered.
Obviously, this is a fast-moving news target. For the latest information from the government, you can visit the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) coronavirus page at CDC.gov. The following information is accurate as of Thursday.
Q: What is the average American’s risk of getting coronavirus?
A: Low. CDC reports: “For the majority of people, the immediate risk of being exposed to the virus that causes COVID-19 is thought to be low.”
Q: What’s the likelihood that coronavirus is in my community?
A: Low. CDC reports: "There is not widespread circulation in most communities in the United States.”
Q: How many coronavirus deaths have there been in the U.S.?
A: So far, not many. CDC reports 36 deaths. Adding various news reports, the number could be about 40 and growing. Although one death is too many, the reported deaths are among 43 states (including the District of Columbia) reporting outbreaks since January in a population of more than 327 million people.
Q: How many young people have died of coronavirus in the U.S.?
A: So far, there are no reports of deaths among young people in the U.S. The U.S. Surgeon General reports the average age of people who have died from coronavirus in the U.S. is 80. Additionally, he says those who are most impacted have chronic, serious health problems such as heart disease, diabetes, and lung disease.
Q: Who has died so far?
A. These were compiled using CDC reports plus news and local health department reports:
A bill introduced Wednesday to the House of Representatives would give the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) the flexibility to not reduce GI Bill benefits for student veterans, if their colleges or universities close or move entirely online due to the coronavirus outbreak.
“No student veteran, dependent or spouse should be worried about their GI Bill benefits being reduced or cut off because of actions their school is taking in response to COVID-19,” Rep. Phil Roe (R-Tenn.), sponsor of the emergency legislation, said in a statement.
According to Roe, a ranking member of the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs, GI Bill beneficiaries at schools that are closing or going online-only might risk receiving lower monthly housing payments or, in a worst-case scenario, having their degree program disapproved by the VA.-- excerpt, rest at link above --
Today the United States is witnessing History in the Making. This is the First Time a Virus has been Transmitted Nationwide through Television. At the least it is journalistic malfeasance. At worst, an organised effort to crash the US economy with the ultimate goal of removing a sitting President.
The ABC daytime talk show “The View” has been a bastion of anti-Trumpism and one of the leaders of that has been Joy Behar.
But now she has decided to leave the show for the time being over fears of the COVID-19 coronavirus.
Behar announced her decision during a pre-taped episode of “The View” that is set to air on Friday, Variety reported.
The 77-year-old comedian and co-host of the show cited her advanced age as the reason she has for taking time off the show.
“I’m in a higher risk group because of my age, but I’m perfectly healthy,” she said. “I don’t look my age, but I’m actually up there. The number makes me dizzy.”-- excerpt, rest at link above --
