Nobody is letting them all in, and nobody is implying no money should be spent trying to find a cure. Thanks for the cringe posts though, they were mildly entertaining.

I wish it was that simple. Some companies have attendance policies that may cause employees to be terminated for unsatisfactory attendance so some do come to work sick. And now another NYC resident infected and he exposed his child who went to school. For now, the school where the kid goes to is now closed. The NYC lawyer recently spent time in Miami and authorities are trying to retrace his steps.

They are though, I heard it on Infowars so it must be true!
Approximately 4% of people who get it require ICU level care, an even larger amount will require hospitalization for oxygen therapy, or symptomatic management (IV fluids, nebulizers, etc.). Hospitals will be hit

Fed with an an “emergency“ rate cut...
Does that seem a tad of kneejerk to anyone else?
What are we missing? What does bob Iger know that we don’t?

I never said they were, but stopping international travel from countries with considerable infection makes very good sense. It's not an all or nothing thing you realize.

Now we’re talking about the Mexican border again?
JHC...I wonder who consumes this clickbait nonsense...and every day I’m reminded they do in fact exist.
Can we stop underachieving mentally?

Every damn thing that has happened in the past week or two regarding COVID-19 seems a tad kneejerk to me. So why should this be any different?

Dudes and dudettes, chillax.
Back to it, how is the virus in Florida looking now? I was thinking about making a trip down there in late April. Any word?

That’s too far away to know.
It’s honestly hard to predict anything when something like this is fresh. The issue - I contend - here is the economics, not the virus. The virus may be the catalyst or the whole thing can flame out in a week.

The markets aren’t hard to predict.
The Friday bump was expected...the fact it didn’t happen was a bellweather.
The traders decided over the weekend that they were gonna “get my money back!
“ yesterday so they played a stimulus angle worldwide. There was a lot of manipulation in the bond market yesterday that fueled the bumps.I saw the market was up only 75 points this morning after an hour...which predicts a drop today.
I’ll guess in the 500 range. That Fed rate announcement wasn’t because they were bored. They are looking at instability in the market forces and probably under intense political pressure from the first family of bankrupt casinos

Okay so 13,000 are murdered by guns every year on the average in the United States. So let's just forget about any gun controls or laws because people are dying anyway.
Think about what you just wrote. 106 people are infected which can be easily contained ....but let's flood the country with the other 92,114 infected people anyway.
Wow.
Reallllllly hate to join into this as I've merely been lurking at this point, but there are not currently 92K infected worldwide. A lot (roughly half, 52%) of those 92K have since recovered.
There is a great GIS map running from Johns Hopkins that shows current numbers, recoveries, hot spots, etc.
As of this morning, 92302 worldwide have been confirmed. 48175 have since recovered. 3131 have perished.
The point still stands that there are 40996 actively infected individuals worldwide (Confirmed - (Recovered+Perished)). And that's a heckuva lot of people to worry about.
More worrying,imho, are the ones who have the virus but haven't presented with symptoms. Once diagnosed you can treat/quarantine. But the carriers are the unknown.Reallllllly hate to join into this as I've merely been lurking at this point, but there are not currently 92K infected worldwide.

If someone has died ("perished"), then are they still actively infected? I would assume the virus in their body would be dead shortly after they died.Reallllllly hate to join into this as I've merely been lurking at this point, but there are not currently 92K infected worldwide.

Buy 4, get 3 FREE...coming soon to a Disney park near you.
Good point. It’s the delay in the incubation period that has got the experts bugged out.
How many places can a traveler go in 7 days.

Then why aren't you making yourself rich using this complete knowledge of the markets today?

So do I. My husband works for an airlinewith such a policy. Add to that part time employees can't afford to call off or fear they may lose their job.
