Coronavirus (NO POLITICAL OR SOCIAL COMMENTARY PLEASE)

[BucketheadPikes]

It was easy to hear that the underlying theme running through the entire Coronavirus Task Force briefing that just wrapped up, was getting the country open for business again & letting people move about freely again, while doing it practicing "responsible behavior." We've clearly seen that a lot of people just don't care to follow "responsible behavior." Good luck with that, you're gonna need it & lots of it. More wishful thinking, & now by a medical "professional" on the task force. The briefing started off with, "Beautiful day." Huh?! What?! On a day with record setting death numbers There was a marked change in tone from the medical professionals, well at least one of them. Seemed like towing the economic line to me. We heard a mention of record setting unemployment numbers, but no mention whatsoever of today's record setting death numbers, so we now see where the focus is here. Call me crazy, but I just cannot get onboard with this "business as usual" with "responsible behavior" model.

Gold you cannot buy right now, and nobody knows the real value, or you can buy for around $2,100 US an ounce and wait weeks for delivery...includes shipping.
But on paper what's the price of gold today?

We need ventilators, it's worth more than gold, we need lots of masks, it's worth more than $2 trillion stimulus, we need medical protective gear and equipment, we need to help our parents, our doctors, our nurses, the vulnerable. ...The strong will survive.

Didn't really answer my question...

Canada, Bauer company who makes protective glass shields for hockey players (helmet face masks), is making them right now for doctors and nurses. They are making them in Quebec, Canada...in full gear as we speak.
We will soon see doctors and nurses across North America wearing them.

They like other nations sent aide to China in the hope it would be contained there...

Most likely.

Hmmmm like in Europe Netflix is lowering their video quality in Canada...

[LordoftheRings]

Everywhere they are lowering bandwidth, no UHD definition to make place for the Coronavirus news.
...By not slowing important news feeds. We are learning about this virus as we go, each single minute counts...any good info on how to protect ourselves more.

Websites that need a subscription to read their articles are now starting to give free news about Coronavirus...it's about time!

Then why are we adding more hospital space. They are even going to use Javits Center as a hospital.
