I've been sending my dad texts asking him to not go to church. He's the kind of guy who insists on hugging every time he comes and goes and thrives in social settings. He's late 60s with heart issues and believes Jesus is the answer for everything. Incredibly frustrating during times like this.
good on you

I told my mom and dad to stay holed up on their remote mountainside spot...no health probs, but they are old

play it safe for now older folks, no reason to test the odds of whatever this is.

t all flip to take out orders and promote it.
problem is that food could come with a side of Corona

Sucks for the restaurants, but I/we am cooking all the meals at home for now...I am only getting exposed at the grocery store, and from whatever my lady brings home from the hundreds of people she sees medically each day.

nytimes huh..lol. first of all they are backtracking from being wrong that google wasnt involved in doing this and then said they were. second, trump never oversold it..he just mentioned it as one of the many things being done by the administration to fight coronavirus. what he said was actually being done. you are falling for msm npc shit
Never oversold it?

Trump stated Google had 1,700 engineers working on the program... Yet Verily only has 1,000 employees total.

The 1,700 engineers Mr. Trump mentioned were actually just Google employees who said a day earlier that they would be happy to volunteer their time on the project if needed.

Google employees volunteering to help Verily is far from 1700 engineers working on this project.

He Has 17,700 Bottles of Hand Sanitizer and Nowhere to Sell Them

Guy tries to justify buying up a ton of supplies and then gets torched online. Someone has even filed a report against him with the State of TN.
His kind of hoarding, where you go deplete in-stock supplies of small communities at the onset of a crisis, is despicable.

But the people who saw this coming weeks/months ago and stockpiled hand sanitizer/masks off of amazon are also getting hosed. And that's the kind of 'stockpiling' that we should encourage. It takes the gaps out of Just-In-Time supply chains, especially on high volume/low margin stuff like TP and hand sanitizer.

holy shit are you dumb. it amounted to around that number working on it. google just verified it wasnt technically 1700 google people..just google and verily people who techincally are working on it on googles order. they gave that info to trump administration and they stated it as google because they assumed google was doing it and had no clue they passed it to their sister company verily. please stop talking to me. i stopped working with individuals with autism 10 years ago. im putting you on ignore

The cdc being a bottleneck, a hinderance...
Not just them but the FDA as per my links earlier.
I don't understand the entire approval process, but at the end it was/is a stupid cluster limited only by paper rules and not actual ability in tech and healthcare.
