Holy sh*t, it's a private sector circlejerk. Good lord, this is sickening.

Yes but it's easily the best way to distribute the tests.

Exactly.

 

[venecol]

None of this is happening right away. They're talking about weeks.

FAIL

 

[venecol]

Privatize emergency response. Good job.

 

[venecol]

All those companies stocks going up?

SUCCESS

Home health guy ain't doing shyt for free.

 

[QuantumMechanic]

Ohio's top health officials say they believe there are 100,000 undiagnosed cases in the state and expect that to double every 2-3 days.

This press conference is absolutely sickening. Pence literally has his tongue up Trump's ass.

 

[venecol]

Everything he's saying is loved by the market. He's good at that.

It inspires some confidence, at least. Private companies in South Korea are doing the same thing, except they won't criticize them

All those companies stocks going up?

SUCCESS

CVS - up 9%
Target - up 13.4%

You get the picture

Trump on now.

If this system works as designed, there are going to be a lot of sad democrats crying in their lattes. Its all coming together and we will deal with the tyrants like Rainman Biden and the radical left later at the ballot box.

if what system works as designed?

Absolutely. Who inspires more confidence to delivering?

Google, CVS, QuestDiagostics, Roche, Target, Walgreens or the US Govt.

All I can work with are the facts, not your models or projections of the number of people likely to die.

We don't have the actual numbers yet unfortunately. Once the escalated testing starts we'll start getting a clearer picture of how this virus is spreading. The numbers we know now are just the baseline. Experts are predicting a spike because of the testing.

My concern today is that with the relatively low numbers we're seeing today we already have a panicking population. What will a spike in positive tests cause?

Yesterday I decided to stalk up on food just in case and went to the Market basket. I got the last two packs of ground beef, grabbed whatever soup cans were left and a bunch of other stuff. The shelves were emptying quickly. Unbelievably they had just put out a pallet of toilet paper. Boom shakalaka. Today a Market basket (in a different town) closed because they're out of food.

Strange times.

 

[RobertWeathers]

I didn't .... the CDC website did......I'm not going to waste my time when you full well know you are full of sh*t

You just did b/c you can't stand being called out as a hypocrite and a liar.

Be gone.

 

[Triumph]

Well, if its like the Obamacare website were all dead.

 

[venecol]

I hope once, "in the near future" the tests actually start, and the cases jump, they'll be prepared.

Oh, wait, in order to get a test are they forcing everyone through their website (that isn't available yet) or can you just go to your Dr. or Hospital? I'm confused.

They called a press conference and a campaign rally broke out
