We're All Going to Die

Now they seem to think the virus can hang in the air a couple of hours? Like you're walking in an empty grocery aisle, but somebody sneezed there an hour ago, and you could potentially get it. Yikes if true.
 
All our local markets now have signs in the produce department: "Due to the coronavirus pandemic, please, no sampling of grapes, cheerries or other foods." They call that "sampling"? I always thought of it as shoplifting!
 
Infectious disease expert Dr. Harvey Fineberg says people can spread the virus by simply breathing or by talking. That's good to know. So we should be safe as long as nobody breathes or talks.

I think it's a good thing those cruise ships are docking here in FL today. Full of sick people or not, they are Americans. We can't just leave them out at sea until they run out of food and maritime law takes over where we are forced to let them dock.

One of my Facebook friends suggested they should dock at Mar-a-Lago.

Bad day here. My uncle's mom is still okay, but my uncle's dad died today. And we just found out my wife's great aunt passed away today also from Covid19. Both were in their late 80's, but still sad.
Both were in nursing homes recently.

Aaron, I'm so sorry to hear that. Freaking awful. I'll be thinking of you.

Thanks man. I feel like it's closing in on us. 150+ already in my parish (county)

I watched Treme and True Detective, I know I what a Parish is.

But really I hear ya man. I keep checking this site:

Broward county is the second worst in FL with 1,346 cases. That's why I'm taking this stay at home order (that begins statewide tonight at midnight) very seriously.

Old or not, losing one family member in a day is rough but losing 2 in the same day to this virus is both frightening and incredibly saddening. Once again, I'm sorry to hear the awful news Aaron.
 
I'm sorry for your family's loss Aaron.
I'm afraid that more of us are going to get impacted by this before it's over.
 
CNN just reported there have been more than 2,700 new cases of the coronavirus today in Louisiana. Health officials put part of the blame on Louisianans' obesity. Mister Aaron, I recommend you lay off the Big Macs, pasta, pizza, french fries, jelly doughnuts and rocky road ice cream for a few weeks.

Fool, he lives in New Orleans, not Oakland.

We're talking about Beignets and etouffee. You lost your credit for being right a few posts ago.
 
Thanks guys.

Yes 98, obesity is extra common around here - lots of good food, and people love to eat! Myself included, but somehow I manage to stay a healthy 155. And no Hectic, I'm not 4' 7"
 
I hereby present my defense: In Southern California, we have Chinese, Vietnamese, Laotians, Koreans, Samoans, Iranians, Italians, Latinos, Hispanics, Filipinos, Hondurans, Salvadorans, Armenians, blacks and even a few white people.......but no French people. None. To me, "Beignets & Etouffee" sounds like the name of a Parisian law firm.
