Wife was suppose to go to FL for a triathlon but she has cancelled. Luckily her work has issued a 30day work from home policy. So hopefully we keep that crap outta here.
new season of Diablo starts tonight though I think! More video games, more social distancing!!! |

Sounds like based on past experience, Singapore (and others) got right the on top of things: https://arstechnica.com/science/202...ries-take-note/
We in the good ole US of A should take some serious notes. Of course our two societies are structured very differently, so we couldn't implement these sorts of things overnight.
We're going to have to come to grips, openly and vocally, with the fact that our system of private, for-profit medicine is fine for the "you call your doctor and schedule an appointment weeks or months out"...but that it does all for a social/pandemic type situation.
Our populace is going to have to ask, and answer, politically, the question: is at least SOME level of healthcare a "right" in our society? If the majority answer is "yes," then we need to decide just how much healthcare is a right, and then decide how to fund it. "But it's expensive!" Christ, so is the private for-profit system. How much could we save if we eliminated getting billed from 8 separate doctors/providers/businesses every time the wife goes to "the" doctor? Etc.
I'm 43, and it will not happen in my lifetime. |

I came to my university because, as it's on lockdown, it's the most deserted place I could think of and, according to our scientists, it's still safe (the lockdown was an administrative decision, not a medical one).
I've done some work AND made some beats. If all goes according to plan, only the beats will be sick :p |

| We (IT dept) just got the word: all to work from home, with 1 on standby to be on site. Set up all branch managers for remote/VPN access. Prepare branch offices to accept personnel from other departments to spread them out so a whole dept. isn't wiped out. We currently don't have the hardware or software licenses for that. The licenses will be quick...the hardware, not so much. Unless we prep their existing thin clients...which are bolted to their desks. |

| Rinsing my dick in Listerine has been good to me for the last 20 years to go raw, so if it worked then, it will work now. |

I told you...the last time you convinced me to try this, I was in significant pain. |
