I guess that Southern reputation for being courteous and gracious left the building a while back.

Then, they'll slit your throat.

Have you missed all the recent stories about Michigan, California, Illinois, Minnesota, NYC? Best put down those stones before you cast them

throughout the region.

I just hope they stay put/don't go elsewhere, otherwise I think states/cities/towns/neighborhoods will start roadblocks if the CV gets too bad.

Michigan, Minnesota, California, etc.?

better off, eh, being that they tried to slow down the response of the CV, but I guess you don't think so.





Michigan shows strong signs of controlling the coronavirus as new cases, deaths continue to decline


(Detroit Metro Times) Day by day, Michigan is slowly bending the coronavirus curve, with metro Detroit leading the way.

The state reported 93 new coronavirus deaths on Thursday, bringing the state’s total to 4,343. Michigan now has more than 45,600 confirmed cases, up 592 in the past 24 hours.

At the peak out of the outbreak in early and mid-April, metro Detroit accounted for 80% of the confirmed infections in the state. On Thursday, only a third of the new cases were in Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb counties.

But as the rate of new cases declines in metro Detroit, outbreaks are cropping up in western Michigan counties. .......(more)

The same reason I'm still seeing some of the largest day-over-day percentage increases in MN IA NE KS.
And ME jumped because they just added in the cases from the Portland poultry processing plant.

expect CV numbers to go up there too, per your note re. ME Portland poultry numbers going up.

can they receive federal funds without maintaining accreditation. This was drilled into me for ten years of my working life, so if I am incorrect feel free to correct me.
Anyway, what is being described in the OP almost sounds like an intentional practice and not a lack of protocol. Which is probably even a worse scenario.
Again maybe this hospital does not receive federal funds, but that is hard to imagine.

but it's still overwhelmingly conservative. Those who vote Democratic are pretty religious and culturally conservative.

How red is it? Open theocrat and ephebophile Roy Moore won Mobile in his primary runoff during the 2017 special election for US Senate.

As hard as it is for us to understand, many Americans don't really pay attention to the "real" news and rely on community resources like their churches and neighbor gossip line to be "informed" Many people really don't get that people can not be sick and yet still be contagious. That's why we see so many folks refusing to wear masks. They just don't quite grasp that concept and instead feel they are being asked to do something ridiculous and unnecessary. It feels persecutory and accusatory to them. There needs to be a far better push to inform these folks that they are protecting others and slowing the spread. It's hard because they don't believe that it will affect them.

Safely, so far, self quarantined in Los Angeles.

I live in Mobile. We have the highest number of cases ( 1350 ) in the state and rising. Majority here are rednecks who think you are crazy for wearing a mask and doing any social distancing. My wife is a medical provider and she gets one mask per week where she works. Mobile is Jeff Sessions place of residence. Jeff is not so well liked anymore in this state since he fell out of grace with the squatter in the White House, and will probably lose a runoff for his old Senate seat to a former Auburn football coach, who is even more conservative than Sessions. This state is all that you hear it is and worse.

He spouts the platitudes, catch phrases and buzz words aimed at that portion of the electorate but he has no personal philosophy other than enriching himself, as quickly as possible, with as little effort and by most any means necessary. He's a grifter, a con man who has no personal philosophy other than what will serve him best in the moment.

He quite literally was named as a defendant in action against a Ponzi scheme and only escaped trouble by paying the plaintiffs and turning evidence against his former partner. He serves nothing but his wallet.

Self centered babies, but that's how they turned out.

Your nominating action should remove your genes from the pool. I can just about guarantee you the general group you tap as Darwin nominees have likely already reproduced, started at a young age and done so often.
