got our first case

well at least your still able to talk about it i think you got more than a tee shirt with your vacation this time many wishes of a speedy recovery . I spend 30 days in the hospital a few years ago and all I got was the bill Id be willing to trade you my bill no tee shirt or ship bound vacation , Well I did get a nifty 14 in scar sadly not the rifle .
 
We have three confirmed. One a hospital employee, at home, recovering from what appears a mild dose.
The other two are Joe Normal, and so far, nobody in hospital on a ventilator....
We have a family member in with something else since Friday. The hospital restrictions are expected and acceptable, it's not scary or anything like that.
We have officers doing ER security detail, and the protocol is pretty simple, none of the panic on the news.
Simple business as usual, H1N1 has been way rougher and deadlier here...

Healthy people are still healthy.


Edit: and however, we were just told the hospital will not allow any visitors at all, starting tomorrow.

The credit union will not open the lobby, tomorrow. Dentist office closed today, unless certified emergency. GP physicians office SAYS **** CALL FIRST, phone triage, come to special entry area ****

Obviously those businesses took the Trump todays speech to heart. And responded to that level.

EDIT 2:
Confirmed cases went from 3 to 8. Lee county is now #2 in the state.

25 year old went to Colorado on ski trip, came back and got sick.... exposed his family and a local restaurant.
No story yet on the other 4 of the "new 5"...
Would explain the lobby and other closings 'TOMORROW' and no hospital visitors. They are still working out potential exceptions to hospital accompanying vs visitors.

They are getting definitely serious.

My city's first case a couple days ago was a woman who came back from London....

 
Our area just got one. Girl whose college in NY shut down. She flew back to the mid south and voila! Rumor mill said she had the guts to post to Instagram that “don’t worry guys, I’m ok, mom and dad helped get me tested so I know.” Parents are doctors. Absolutely tone deaf. No sense that she brought this thing to a region of a state that hasn’t had a single case so far.

Their self-centered nature and lack of common sense leads to blatant negligence. My 18 year old daughter still doesn't grasp the severity of this situation.... or the impact going forward.
 
We got an email from work tonight letting us know that a coworker has tested positive. We all knew who it was because her husband was patient zero in our area. I am glad she works in a different building a couple of blocks away from my office.

People who post shit like that often are the same ones who get out of safari trucks to try and pet the lions...

Appears South Beach Miami is finally being shut down...... after how many new transmissions?

Is Philadelphia's prisoner release and publicly publishing a list of crimes that won't be enforced by police a sign of things to come?

Shop lifting being one of those crimes. That basically forces small business owners to defend their inventory.
