As of today I know 3 RNs that have it. Some of their coworkers also have it but I don't really know them.

It's about to get ugly.

Are you still working from home?
Yep. Haven't been in a hospital or surgery center in 2 weeks. I've went to our office a few times but we only have 2 people working there. A few of us have made pitstops through to pick up supplies or drop things off but it's few and far between. Basically if someone can work at home, we're making them do so.

Ok good. I know you would if you had to, just worry about people in your industry at the moment.

We're only letting Floridians on shore. Foreigners and New Yorkers can rot on that fucking death boat.

I have no proof of the above statements so you're just gonna have to trust me.
Just bugger off to Jersey, snip Florida off and kick it out to sea. It's going to be flooded global warming wise in 20 years anyway. And you love Jersey.

It's a reasonable measure to take. How want's those filthy people coming into their states? Not me.

Teacher friend of mine in Santa Clara has been doing stay at home lessons for like a fortnight. California has its faults but The Bay Area has really taken this seriously early on.

.

He allegedly made statements to a CHP officer that included "You only get this chance once. The whole world is watching. I had to. People don't know what's going on here. Now they will."

Officials say video from inside the train's cab shows Moreno holding a lighted flare during the incident

I seem to recall some stories early on indicating that the more one is exposed the worse it is for them. Splinty @Splinty, what do you make of this?

"From a policy perspective, we need to consider that not all exposures to the coronavirus may be the same. Stepping into an office building that once had someone with the coronavirus in it is not as dangerous as sitting next to that infected person for an hourlong train commute."

maybe I missed it but are there information on the coronavirus becoming airborne when the weather is humid? can it travel through the humidity?

I'm just wondering because I was told the steams are turned off for breathing machines at hospitals

and countries with hot ass weathers still seeing the curve go up, most likely cuz it's humid there?
Its not air borne. Its can't stay in the air for long and drops down.
Better wash your shoes with soap.

Why did Corona spread so quickly in the USA, was it because of idiots flying from other countries?
