They're kinda late with that. Still no stay at home or lockdown order though. Feels like Virginia is dragging their feet here.

NoVa should have been shut down two weeks ago like MD and DC. Businesses are taking it on themselves to close, but it’s hit and miss. DC people are going to VA for amenities; I was in NoVa all weekend. State lines are meaningless when a metro area overlaps.

Northam has declared a state of emergency.

This morning I was watching a segment where a talking head was talking about how low our fatality rate was and was touting that, and I was thinking to myself, does he realize that early on, the rates were low in those other countries and only after their hospitals were overrun when you saw the dramatic increase in fatality rates. Let's hope that doesn't happen here. Unfortunately, it's not gonna take long to reach capacity in many hospitals across the country.

Okay, at what point do we need to start wondering if the administration wants a worst case scenario to occur?

I'm starting to wonder if anyone can be this incompetent, or is he just in denial, or simply just wants to welcome the apocalypse.

It was nice knowing you folks

I think his campaign is aware that a second quarter economic and employment down turn in the second quarter (April through June) during an election year has lead to the incumbent losing the election. I think he is making avoiding that a priority over everything else, because Donald Trump has always put Donald Trump first.

I'm pretty sure what she said was that models of 70% infection rates were based on the idea of nothing being done and three cycles of infection, not that three cycles were a certainty.

Correct, she was talking about that, but I'm sure a lot of the reporters there were left wondering if we're gonna have those 3 phases or cycles.

Three waves of the virus. The current one that will end this year, the second one that will come in 2021 and the third in 2022. She also said we'll have a vaccine by 2021, so no worries.

Oh i was thinking maybe 3 waves of the 15 day plan. Wishful thinking i guess.

In case you missed it, Dr. Birx walked off the stage after dropping the bomb that they are expecting 3 cycles.

Fauci is nowhere to be found.

No, she said by the 2021-2022 cylce. The second wave will not have a vaccine.

Coronavirus task force is down to Trump and Pence.

No, she said by the 2021-2022 cylce. The second wave will not have a vaccine.

Indeed, she said they expect treatments by the fall of this year and a vaccine possible in time for 22.

My local news cut to our mayor giving an update like 20 minutes ago. Much more useful information.

Coronavirus task force is down to Trump and Pence.

Is that who's left in this 8 hour briefing or is that who's actually left on the task force?

This short video compares disease outbreaks from the 2000s and shows Covid-19 is trending to be the worst outbreak this century.

I hope we have more pressers like this in the future...

I saw the bomb she dropped. She even said it in almost casual fashion. But, I was thinking to my self, I haven't heard that mentioned from the podium much, if at all. This is all so weird.

I read this in January. Crazy to see it now mainstream.
