Sorry to hear about the family--remember to take care of yourself as well, in the confined quarters you're sharing minimizing the spread throughout the house I'm sure is top priority. Take care and I promise not to come by and try to take your stuffOriginally posted by Gregg View Post

Placer county is ignoring the order. Gun shops still open, people on NextDoor celebrate our 2nd amendment rights and add another item to their Recall Gavin Newsom petitions.Originally posted by GwynnInTheHall View PostI'm not expecting to grow flowers in the desert...Comment

Interesting stuff, if inconclusive. I certainly don't think it would hurt if we all had masks and wore them in public. But we don't. There are none to be found in my area, anyway.Originally posted by The Feral Slasher View PostHere are a couple of links that I thought were interesting. I know that if I were around sick people I would wear a mask. And chances are that in Seattle I may come into contact with people who are carrying Coronavirus (or could be carrying it myself). I've been considering wearing one on the few times each week that I go out in public to buy groceries. I'm leaning more towards wearing one the next time I go out. As CBB mentioned, if nothing else it may get me some extra space

My daughter was starting spring break (I had to look, it was 3/9 but seems like months ago) and was going to fly home. I told her I would pay her a big bonus if she wore a mask to the airport and on the plane. This was a few days after things were picking up here in Seattle, so I wasn't really sure, but figured it would be better if she wore one (also told her to avoid people and use lots of hand sanitizer). So she was at the drug store and couldn't find any, but she asked the cashier and he had one box left, the were keeping them behind the counter. So I'm not sure how many we have, maybe 19 or 49 I would guess. I haven't used or ordered any, but I'm thinking about it. Sounds like I might want to order today if I want to have them anytime soonishOriginally posted by Sour Masher View Post---------------------------------------------

That's a good question. Maybe I will take a look and see what I can find out. These aren't N95s, but if the hospital had nothing at all these would be better.Originally posted by Judge Jude View Post---------------------------------------------

looks like I probably can't donate them since I opened the package. I can spare some lysol wipes though, maybe I'll drop them off sometime to get out of the house. Good idea JJOriginally posted by The Feral Slasher View Post

This guy is a big proponent of masks. Interesting point he makes about Hong Kong (similar to NY, but only 4 deaths from COVID-19), as well as some other interesting stuff to consider. As you say it might not matter now since they probably aren't available, but it is something we may need to consider if we want to get out of lockdown mode anytime soon. I haven't read everything on his twitter feed, and haven't verified his claims about Hong Kong....Originally posted by Sour Masher View Post

I went to the liquor store and was happy to see about 30% were wearing masks. Then I went to pet store and saw no one else. Looks like us drinkers are smarter

He's absolutely right, but it wouldnt matter if we had enough for everyone, Americans arent going to wear masks out in public.Originally posted by The Feral Slasher View Post"The Times found no pattern of sexual misconduct by Mr. Biden, beyond the hugs, kisses and touching that women previously said made them uncomfortable." -NY Times
