You had a good run Grandpa.. yur on your own
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCSDEilLllM
Trump says last night that he wants to open things up as the virus is just getting started, and within hours.. FOX news has the talking heads to back the idea up. I'm more worried about the coordination between media and the administration and the over the top manipulation of the FOX viewers (whose median age is over 65, or something). All the while there are no tests for the virus available for 99% of the population.

Re: You had a good run Grandpa.. yur on your own
Brave man talking politics online. I happen to agree with you 100% but I suspect others here will not. It seems pretty clear you try to avoid all contact you can outside of your household for between 2-4 weeks and then assuming they have ramped up testing where it is easily available, start moving people back out towards normal with continuously decreasing contact restrictions.

Re: You had a good run Grandpa.. yur on your own
Me and the wife did the grocery shopping today.She got her parents food in one cart and I got ours in another.Her mother is going through chemo so her immune system wont take a hit or her dads that has heart issues.
We use hand sanitizer after putting groceries in the truck and she sprays alcohol on her mothers groceries at the house. I would not want to be packed in a big city any day but now Im glad I live away from the stupidity. Remember those who wanted open borders,loves the communists and hate America because they helped bring it here and are hindering efforts to keep things safe.Those people can choke on their lung and die.

Something to consider for divers. Even if you're young, if you catch it and end up in the 20% who have severe symptoms, your diving days may be over.

Re: You had a good run Grandpa.. yur on your own
All the cases I've read about in the paper, or seen on TV, have been traced back to citizens that were on cruise ships or flown on trips abroad.
But carry on with your rant. |

Best people can do now is minimize contact and be vigilant on sanitizing.Pretty sure we had it here a few months ago.No positive test on flu."Its just a virus"people got some fever and some cold symptoms and straight into ERs and then back in some cases to ICU.They were people with asthma and other pre-existing conditions but they got hammered hard.People were staying out of crowds for fear of getting the bug.

Re: You had a good run Grandpa.. yur on your own
Regardless of whether illegal aliens brought THIS disease or not, if the current situation does not provide a stark reminder that open borders are a significant weakness in our national security.. well .. you are just not able to think for yourself.

Re: You had a good run Grandpa.. yur on your own
When I hear open borders I think of immigration. But a pandemic like this can get into the US even if we allowed zero immigration. We have the freedom to travel the world and millions do for business and pleasure along with most of the rest of the world. Much of Florida's economy is dependent on that tourist travel from all over the world. I don't see that stopping. So we need to get through this virus and be a whole lot more prepared for the next one. And countries that aren't going to do their part to prevent the next pandemic need to be held accountable.
