Where can I buy these masks you are asking me to wear?

Wearing a mask, even surgical, will filter out some of the load so you may have less severe symptoms.

Going into any store at this point is like "looking at death in the face"
If you want to look death in the face check this link of all air traffic in the sky now and scroll to the east coast and Florida.

70% of Americans can't work from home.

Very good question, even my 86 yo mother doesn't have access to a mask and joked with they are simply not available in the US due to hoarding. They give them out for free at the stores where I am living. I turn them down since I already purchased a very good mask that looks like Darth Vadar wore in Star Wars.

You best make your own and I would look for something called a microfiber wash cloth. The one in this link can be washed and reused over and over.

People working from home are probably in a higher income bracket anyway, so they are more likely to lie above the cap salary.

I couldn't work last week outside of 9 hours (time and a half.) For now I'm call in. I'll be paid regardless, but last week I went from working during Spring break to not, to working to I couldn't due to headcount...

131 deaths in the US today. 11,000 new cases today.

Dr Fauci, a doctor with over 40 years of experience and one of the most respected infectious disease physicians on the planet, is against it.

But Trump, with zero medical experience and no scientific background whatsoever, disagrees with Fauci, believes we should reopen the U.S. economy in just a few weeks.

Do Trump supporters really believe Donald Trump knows better than Dr Fauci??????

I am seriously mind blown.

After saying that thousands of New York and NJ residents are coming here each day...and that maybe are likely infected....a few minutes ago DeSantis said they should ALL self-quarantine here in FL for 14 days after landing.

For those not aware, most of these people have reservations at hotel rooms and airBNB's. They rarely come for longer than 14 days. AND, they have no food or supplies and no possible way to isolate.

This is an "honor system", I suppose.

I am beyond words. Every time I think stupidity has hit a peak I am again reminded that there is further to go on that scale.
