I think we would still be talking about it but economic impact to the US would be drastically less.

Looks like Big Pharma is attempting to keep their supply lines in China and out of the US.

They should have had the Buy American provision in the COVID-19 Relief act.
I have no pants on, that is all

@ThunderHorse Well there's this, but I'm not sure if I should hold my breath.

Break, break, just had this go down, at work no less.
Coworker 1: Makes a statement about the media and Trump's approval rating
CW2: That's because you suck the dick of the GOP
Your kind, loving AWP: Shut the fuck up. This is not the time and place for this out of either of you. Have a discussion or not, but the sucking comment is out of line.
People are losing their minds over this shit.

1,100 soldier's from Ft. Bragg's Expeditionary Sustainment Command are deploying to Washington (state) and NY to assist FEMA.
Our numbers of PUIs and positive tests are trickling higher, but we're still waiting for the surge. I talked (well, online) with one ED doc (not here) who has it, says it's knocked him into next week, horrible pneumonia. So we are seeing quite a range from "mild symptoms/I didn't know I had it" to "almost died", all in otherwise healthy people. A local guy with hypertension and "mild kidney disease" died from it; his first test was negative, he got worse, second test was positive, he went from "not well" to dead very quickly.

No, not now, but we are in trials with remdesivir. It's had pretty good results with MERS, SARS, and Ebola.

That's the first "chill" I've had since this has all begun. No kidney disease, but I do have hypertension and take atenolol.
I heard on the news yesterday those with hypertension and diabetes are at higher risk of dying from this virus. At least I got those 2 things going for me.
With hypertension and 9 years breathing that wonderful Afghan air... this board could finally get some new staff members. Yay for progress!
