We're going to need 330 million pills per day for that to work for everyone, any new pill factories going up?
I suspect that because there have been so many negative comments made regarding it's use, it's still sitting in a warehouse, lawyer's and all.
Just an assumption on my part though.

Glad to hear she's up and moving and nagging you. Great sign Sarge!
My son is one of those dots, can't wait to show him. Hope he didn't bring that **** here. He's been home about 2 weeks.

I have to make a run today. Had to tell my family the trips out are stopping. They were going to the store every other day for 1 or 2 things. Got pretty ugly. I said one trip a week only. So today is the day and since I set the rule, I'm going and enlisting my son to help. I may don my Hazmat.
You're right, we should just give up and hang ourselves. Why don't you go first?

Did I say hunker down? Sorry, I meant bunker down
Go Air Force! I tried to get assigned there once
COVID-19 Drives Command Teams Charged With Homeland Defense Into Cheyenne Mountain Bunker
US. Northern Command has dispersed essential command and control teams to multiple hardened locations, including the famous Cheyenne Mountain bunker complex in Colorado, as well as another unspecified site, and is keeping them in isolation. The command took these steps to help ensure these personnel can continue to watch around the clock for potential threats to the U.S. homeland as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to expand across the country and around the world, including within the U.S. military.
U.S. Air Force General Terrence O’Shaughnessy, head of Northern Command (NORTHCOM), who also serves as the commanding officer of the U.S.-Canadian North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), detailed the changes during a virtual town hall. Under normal circumstances, the watch teams, which support both NORTHCOM and NORAD missions, would take shifts staffing a central command center at Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado.
"To ensure we can defend the homeland despite this pandemic, our command and control watch team here in the headquarters split into multiple shifts and portions of our watch team began working from Cheyenne Mountain Air Force Station," O’Shaughnessy explained. A portion of the watch team personnel remain in place at Peterson, as well.
Should the staff working at the bunker become ill, there is in fact a third team of high-ranking military officials working another 'secret' location
The Department of Defense does maintain an array of so-called "continuity" sites across the country specifically to help make sure that U.S. military personnel can carry out essential functions during any major contingency scenario, from a nuclear attack to a pandemic, such as the one the world is experiencing now.

Oh China has more than all other countries combined. Don't doubt that for a moment. This was going on for a good period of time, they jailed people trying to bring it to light that it was an epidemic.
If anyone actually believes China had that few cases and fatalities, I've got a bridge in Brooklyn I'll sell to you real cheap.
China has a cure: CoronaGon.

Uh-oh
Finance Minister of German state commits suicide after worrying over coronavirus COVID-19 economic crisis
Frankfurt Am Main: Thomas Schaefer, the finance minister of Germany's Hesse state, has committed suicide apparently after becoming "deeply worried" over how to cope with the economic fallout from the coronavirus, state premier Volker Bouffier said Sunday

More checks, I say!
Lawmakers already planning more coronavirus stimulus after $2T package
Lawmakers in both parties say they expect discussions on a “phase four” coronavirus response bill in the weeks ahead as travel restrictions, social distancing and sick workers squeeze or shutter businesses nationwide.
“I think the odds are we’ll need more legislation. First, we don’t know the extent of the crisis in terms of the magnitude, so that could rise. But there are going to be problems that we don’t realize now that we’re going to have to grapple with,” Senate Democratic Leader Charles Schumer (N.Y.) said.
“So I think the odds are high there will be a Covid-4,” he added, referring to the anticipated next bill.

Her show wasn’t that good anyway. Monotone and boring, she looked like her voice put her face to sleep.
