The economy is flocked!
I see recession coming,...
Wonder how long it will take to recover? |
Trumps a fool, but this will not impact us more than 3-5 months.
The key is slowing the wave of outbreaks until the country can ramp up capacities. Trump delayed his response, but he's on it now.
Buy stocks next week and you will retire earlier than you had planned.

I've been expecting that Trump might close the USA-Mexico border any day. It hadn't occurred to me that Mexico might shut the borders.

Volaris is having an 80% off sale to some destinations...La Paz is under $100 round trip. We're coming to get you.
On other news...my surf buddy took her 3 year old to the dentist for a check up yesterday. While in the waiting room her offspring coughed, once. The
staff at the desk immediately questioned her as to if her daughter was sick? She informed them it was a simple single cough.
She turned to her daughter and whispered a request for her to not cough anymore...the tyrant looked her mother in the eyes and made three short
playful fake hacking sounds in response.
The staff STOOD UP from behind the counter and told mom she would have to leave the premises and they would reschedule her appointment!
The slow tortuous death from raising a 3 year old is much greater than anything a virus will do to you.

Statistics don’t lie. The rate of pneumonia and death in the 65+ population group is quite high, way worse than any flu in your lifetime.
This was in NYMag today:
In a study that has not yet been peer-reviewed, researchers at the University of Bern in Switzerland used data from the Chinese Center for Disease
Control to determine that mortality rates among those infected in January and February in Hubei province shot up with each decade:
Age Group — Mortality Rate
0-9 — <.01 percent
10-19 — .02 percent
20-29 — .09 percent
30-39 — .18 percent
40-49 — .40 percent
50-59 — 1.3 percent
60-69 — 4.6 percent
70-79 — 9.8 percent
80 & up — 18 percent
Paranewbi, mortality rate in your age group is 1 in 20 |
Sorry goat. I just don't sit in the dark recesses of my mind and fear dying that much. Having fought 3 different kinds of Cancer... still hiding out
in my body somewhere and a heart stint recently installed, I would find dying from the sniffles a rather merciful way to go.
Above and beyond that; A life lived in the greatest country in the world with all the benefits of that, having allowed me to travel, surf, love
uninhibitedly, absorb mass communication with great liberty, and not fearing one moment within or without my home... I'm not going to start whining
now.
How arrogant of us to sit in our wealth with a form of government that has still allowed us to progress even with leadership we may not agree with, or
a 'inconvenience' to our well-being awash in resources that await outside our doors. When I know you (and I) have driven past those small earthen
hovels, where those with much less have dwelt for generations, in the expanse of a desert fractured by asphalt roads laid for our comfort.
Rant over.

The people are not dying from the ”sniffles.” I think it is mostly complications like pneumonia.
Pneumonia ain’t a pleasant way to die...

I think raising 3-year-olds is more fun that tolerating 65-year-old curmudgeons,... kids are always more fun than adults,... at least, that has been
my experience...

Nope Goat... their dying from per-existing conditions.
And I don't think you have any idea what wisdom is.
The challenges (overcome) in my life has caused me to resolve to hide from nothing... 3 doctors have told me that's why I'm alive.

Thanks for the update. I figured that part of the country is more inclined to common sense and not inclined to panic.

Cape Cod, normally very sleepy during the off-season, reported its first positive Covid-19 test today, at a nursing home in Hyannis. Panicked shoppers
have emptied supermarkets of toilet paper, but the liquor store shelves are fully stocked, and the local fish store had some beautiful Atlantic
swordfish that we plan to grill tonight. My wife owns her own business and has worked from home since 1996. I work for a non-profit (https://www.whoi.edu/) that has told everyone who could work from home to do so, and who am I to refuse? Crocuses have started to bloom. Life is
good.

For those living in scarcity and fear, continue to believe everything you read in the media.
For those who believe in perspective, this is for you.

Baby boomers will remember persons making shelters, in case the Russians pushed the button down.
This generation has a much different type of shelter.
