Pentagon asked to provide 85 refrigerated trucks, 100K body bags for coronavirus response
Aprox. 4000 deaths so far.
So it seems they are expecting us to have 20 times the amount of deaths in the future.
How can that be?
They would need to be flooding the hospitals right now.
And that is just not happening.
Something is not right.
What the fuck is going on?

Ebay has tons of gloves, you can get latex cheap if you are not allergic.
Watch what you buy some are high priced.
You will not be taking away from hospitals and such they have been told not to accept outside gloves.
I went to a hospital to donate a couple cases the nurse told me the could not accept out side gloves.
But after talking with her for a while she accepted them.
This was in the parking lot of the hospital.
She wore no gloves or mask.
I asked if thing were as bad as the media says it is inside the hospital.
She was very hesitant to talk about it and did her best to avoid it at first, then she told me it was not as bad as the media was saying.
But I should keep doing what I was doing, that was keeping safe distance ect.
She could tell I was super cautious.
I told her to wear glove before she touched the box, she said she was fine and would wash her hands when she went into work.
As she was walking away after telling me reluctantly that things were not as bad inside the hospital as the media says it is.
She looked over here shoulder and said the virus is real!
I found that a little strange as I never said the words fake or hoax.
Just not as bad as what the media is telling us, maybe it meant nothing but felt kinda weird at the time.
Peace

unbounded exponential growth, of several things -
* the number of virus particles total
* the number of people infected
* the number of deaths
add 2 zeroes, unfortunately.
1.5 million death toll Sunday April 26, based on 5 fold weekly increase which is unfortunately happening as we speak, and the Sunday March 29 numbers @ 2497.
all the ventilators are for the peak of cases.
actually right now, a lot of hospitals are slow. fewer auto accidents etc.
it's not a fait accompli, except in the US. Singapore didn't even close their schools. Just did a LOT of testing and quarantining, but using a rifle approach instead of a shotgun approach.
Their economy is set to GROW this year, and not from their hospitals being overloaded and bankrupting sick patients.

U.S. big bucks turn global face mask hunt into 'Wild West'

Go to you local hospitals and see for yourself.
Or click on the news that is where the truth is found.
we are under lock-down here, unless you are "essential", and then you had better be on the way home, to work, or grocery/pharmacy. there are no elective surgeries being done, and no visitors allowed into hospitals. but then, we are still not inundated by virus yet, trying to STAY that way. do you understand any of this? i doubt it...

1:11 pm: Coronavirus pandemic economic fallout 'way worse than the global financial crisis,' IMF chief says
The coronavirus pandemic has created an economic crisis "like no other," the top International Monetary Fund official said.
"Never in the history of the IMF have we witnessed the world economy come to a standstill," said IMF managing director Kristalina Georgieva.
"This is in my lifetime humanity's darkest hour, a big threat to the whole world, and it requires for us to stand united, be united," Georgieva said during a World Health Organization press conference.
"It is way worse than the global financial crisis" of 2008-09, she said. "This is a crisis like no other." —Dan Mangan

100% man-made clusterfuck.
it so didn't have to be this way.
if there is a debate with Biden & Trump, i wonder if Biden will bring up Singapore & South Korea as examples of countries that handled it a little better.
South Korea & the US actually reported their first cases on the same day.

Walmart on Saturday will begin limiting how many people are allowed inside its stores at one time, reducing its capacity to roughly 20%, as a way to enforce social distancing.
The retail giant joins Target, Costo and other supermarket chains in deciding to count and restrict the number of visitors to keep shoppers at least six feet apart — from each other and from the workers — hoping to limit the spread of the coronavirus.
"While many of our customers have been following the advice of the medical community regarding social distancing and safety, we have been concerned to still see some behaviors in our stores that put undue risk on our people," Walmart's Dacona Smith said in a post on Friday.
Smith, chief operating officer of Walmart U.S., also cited states and cities setting "varying policies regarding crowd control."
Walmart says it will allow no more than five shoppers per 1,000 square feet of space at a given time. Target, whose shopper restrictions also kick in on Saturday, did not specify the number but said it "will actively monitor and, when needed, meter guest traffic."

Mortgage Bonds Rattle Wall Street Anew With Invesco Joining Pain
16 trillion...
The $16 trillion U.S. mortgage market -- epicenter of the last global financial crisis -- is suddenly experiencing its worst turmoil in more than a decade, setting off alarms across the financial industry and prompting the Federal Reserve to intervene.
Unlike last time, risky mortgages aren’t the cause. Instead, the coronavirus pandemic is threatening to make good loans go bad -- and simultaneously sapping the market’s funding. There are fears that government efforts to shore up borrowers and financing won’t be enough and that mortgage and property investors again face massive losses.

Dude get real here.
You think I am talking about hospitals having empty parking lots...LOL
Less staff, less visitors, less patients.
I already factored that into things.
To be clear here:
The news shows hospitals are overwhelmed.
I went there they are not.
Why does the news say this is happening when it is not.
Go to you hospital and see for yourself.
post a video if you see a swamped hospital.
The news says testing has a long wait times.
I did not see a line for testing nor did my brother.
That was 5 different hospitals.
