N.J. family loses 3rd member to coronavirus as devastation continues

Oh no! This is alarming. I just posted about this family with 2 deaths less than two hours ago, and now it's 3 deaths. They must be terrified and in such shock. This virus spreads like butter on hot toast. Even young people need to protect themselves and their families. Everybody stop carrying it around and stay put for awhile. Save your family members, we've all been warned.

Here's the article I posted, but now it's three deaths.
At least 7 members of N.J. family contracted COVID-19 at a family gathering; 2 dead, 4 critical

"Another 19 relatives have tested for COVID-19 and are waiting for their results."

This is related to this devastating news

WALL - An aerospace manufacturing company is closed for cleanup after the mother of one of its employees died from coronavirus.

Safran Aerosystems Evacuation announced it closed as a preventative measure after an employee told the company her mother passed away on March 13. The positive coronavirus testing was confirmed March 14.

New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy announced that day that Rita Fusco-Jackson had died, becoming the state's second fatality from the outbreak that has swept across the nation. The only other coronavirus death confirmed at the time was a Bergen County man, John Brennan, who is a friend of the family.

Two more family members have since died and at least 19 family members are under quarantine, according to the New York Times.

I just received an alert that Xfinity was overloaded and to return when service improved. DH is working from home and was on a conference call, so maybe that caused the service issue.

I'm almost positive they will use income tax data. That provides household income, members of the household, ages, etc. The IRS is the agency which will distribute the payments.

The problem with this, is that many low wage workers, don't bother to file taxes, as it is not a requirement for people with taxable income of less than $10,000.

This is why the movie we tried to watch last night kept spinning and timing out. We pay the highest premium for direct streaming, and I was thinking it was our junk provider.

I wonder how that would work in my son's situation. He and his ex share custody. Last year she claimed both kids, this year he claimed them. That's their arrangement they take turns each year.

I don't know, since a lot of people haven't filed this year yet, it could be based on last year's filings. Or maybe they will take the most recent return filed. I'm guessing it will be whatever data is easiest and fastest to pull. I'll look around and see what they used in 2008.

Off market use for drugs already approved for something else has always been allowed as far as I can tell.

That is my understanding as well. But the media is spinning this as omg, the fda hasn't approved this!

I just wanted to say that it's a very nice thing (if you can afford it) to send a little cash in the direction of your favorite hairdresser or nail artist. My daughter and I are going to continue our monthly budgeted amount at our nail salon.

If you expect to continue to have services such as massage, you can maybe help your masseuse out with a little donation at this time. I figure if I can afford the luxury of nails once a month, I can afford to help out.
