We have a loved one in an assisted living center and sent up a schedule for different relatives to call or FaceTime with her.
My brother sent her a crossword puzzle book and a jigsaw puzzle.
She told us she would open her window and talk to the lady in the apartment next to her!
Nobody has properly prepared, starting with federal government.
I read something like that about the doctors/nurses/emts, having very serious cases of the virus.Is it possible that you can receive higher "doses" of the virus? for example lets say a few spores land on you, it may be that your immune system can deal with a small of exposure and give you no or very little symptoms where as if you receive a large amount of exposure to the virus, for example a nurse working around infected people all day long, could this be harder to fight off? i have no idea how this works but its just a thought that i had.
Really? I think it has been pretty transparent that he has been dilligently working with a great panel of experts on this epidemic.I agree completely.
It's just a hype to combine the "hope" of defeating this infectious disease with the story of the resurrection.
In fact, it's just exactly what a game show host or a television evangelist would come up with - using a religious event and symbology to "sell" an unreasonable and fatuous premise to the masses.
Instead of using science, and expertise, and moderation
I found mine way down in a spot between my couch cushions - like way down in between an opening that shouldn’t have been thereLOL< yes, my mom goes to her balcony and talks to the lady next door on her balcony. They feed the birds together in the mornings now. I think that has been a life saver for them both.
We gave Mom an iPhone last year for face timing and to send pictures. But she lost it somewhere in her apartment and it has no charge, so we can't find it. I was just there and spent 10 days looking.
The puzzles are a good idea. I am going to send her a package this week and maybe I will send her the art supplies I was going to send to my grand daughter. lol

Oh NOOOOO..........now this makes my blood pressure spike.....I am going to cut back on the use of mine right now, saving it in case I really need it....
But we're all Americans, right? If now is not the time for the federal government to do its job and protect its citizenry, then when? You can rub our noses in it later, or even now. And I'm pretty sure your states will have their own issues as we move forward. But let's not allow paramedics to die. Not in any state. Certainly not in poorer states.
I remember Hurricane Katrina. Just looking through Time magazine was enough, even though I was never there myself. It's seared in my brain and makes me tear up to this day. Louisiana will always hold a place in my heart. Planning was a problem then, too. It will be a problem in other states as climate change continues. But I will never begrudge the assistance that was given.

It has been said that some of them were exposed so many times and with various strains of the virus, that it makes it much harder for their immune systems to fight.
JMO.Is it possible that you can receive higher "doses" of the virus? for example lets say a few spores land on you, it may be that your immune system can deal with a small of exposure and give you no or very little symptoms where as if you receive a large amount of exposure to the virus, for example a nurse working around infected people all day long with poor protection could this be harder to fight off? i have no idea how this works but its just a thought that i had.
If you eat a lot of garlic, it will also be great for social distancing. Everybody will want to stand 6 feet away from you. Win win.Well I think that garlic just might be the ticket. Put it in your daily meals and then hang it around your neck. Folks will steer clear of you.
Vitamin C is contained in many fruits and vegetables that people should be eating anyway to promote good health.This will be the next shortage

It does. But as always, an earlier start and consistent information (in this case, about the DPA and whether it has or has not been invoked) helps to get those billions going.I think part of my problem (I'm replying to your shared thoughts with others) is I get the feeling people expect the federal government to snap their fingers and produce billions of PPEs, hundreds of thousands of ventilators, etc. It takes time to produce these things.

But the federal government is not sitting upon 3 million ventilators in a secret storage room. They do not have enough for everyone.But we're all Americans, right?

No, I agree. We need to be producing them. For everyone. The time to start was a few yesterdays ago. It is true that companies are doing it, but they cannot match scale needed without some help. By using the DPA, we can make it less risky for them and reduce price competition. Single purchaser. It also helps to distribute the things fairly, so NY does not get more to the detriment of others.But the federal government is not sitting upon 3 million ventilators in a secret storage room. They do not have enough for everyone.
They are sending some out to each state that needs them. But NYC wants all of them right now. It would be irresponsible to send them all to NYC when other states are going to need them soon as well. JMO
I tried to get Emergencee on my last shopping trip 2 weeks ago. All out in both stores.Hmm... is it a certain brand? We have Emergen C in all the stores around here. My husband got some yesterday.
I'm not sure about tablets, I got the fizzy powder that you pour in water.
