Must be going well for you...

So I have a serious question, how does people in your profession handle those that died from COVID?

Im guessing even the people that didn't die from the virus, now get processed differently too?
Just curious Ron.

I didn't feel well last night and been blowing my nose more than usual over the weekend. Last night I felt real hot all night but okay by the time I showered and dressed and went to work. Went to the urgent care across the road from my work as soon as I got there. I said here's my symptoms but I don't feel sick sick. No fever right now but they gave me a test since I have The Beetus. Now I'm quarantined for three days until I get the test results back and my wife had to leave work too and is pissed at me. She can work from home though. If I was a betting man and putting real money on it I'd say I'm negative but I do work with the public.

I thought for sure I had it about a month ago I spiked a temp, but it only lasted a night and I tested negative. I actually felt worse that night than when I have it now. You are better to be safe than sorry though and hope it works out. My area is about triple what it was just a couple months ago. If we had 100 cases daily people were like OMG. Yesterday we had over 300 and the days prior we were 250+ The just opened up the LIVE! Casino so I have no clue how they are letting that go other than $$$$. A lady from work went and it was pretty packed she said. Doesnt seem like the best place to be at the moment.
 
South Dakota’s was at 60% at about 1/40th of the population density of New York.

Is it cause of all those rednecks refusing to wear masks up dere?

Take a few extra precautions when bringing them to the funeral home and embalming. After you embalm someone they're safe. Visitors to the funeral home are a far bigger hazard. Never had a dead person cough or sneeze on me yet.

Kinda how I felt. Felt real hot all night and couldn't sleep much. I just feel like I have a mild cold right now but the way things are, like you said, better safe than sorry. I'm not expecting a positive test but ya never know.

Casinos are immune to the Covid, jitter. As are Walmarts.

Just don't go to a place of worship or to a gym (to you know, better your health to help fight against this virus). Those places are superspreaders. Apparently Holidays with family at home are superspreaders as well (can't find the scientific article behind that one yet though), but those darned Black Friday sales were apparently immune as well.

Or just ask Floggy which places are okay and which aren't if you have any doubts.

In CA titty bars may be open but not churches.
 
South Dakota’s was at 60% at about 1/40th of the population density of New York.

So you're saying Cuomo is a God damned genius and his policies have been effective? (when you reply, please include in your response the sheer brilliance of inserting COVID+ patients into nursing homes).
 
Last I saw 40% of the restaurants in the country will go under. I'm not sure the statistics on health clubs. I'm sure the big chains like LA.Fitness will make it ...

Very possibly not.

24-Hour Fitness is bankrupt.

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/24-hour-fitness-bankruptcy-chapter11-closes-gyms/

LA Fitness appears headed that way very, very soon.

LA Fitness has lined up a $300 million loan from the government’s Main Street Lending Program, which provides emergency loans to help small- and medium-size businesses affected by the coronavirus pandemic, said Robert Wilson, the gym operator’s general counsel.

https://www.wsj.com/articles/la-fit...-from-main-street-lending-program-11605215076

LA Fitness used the rent deferral to postpone paying that massive debt, but the bill is coming due soon. The company cannot weather another shutdown. It will simply go the way of the dodo bird.

Go ahead and keep licking (D)im buttholes, Flog. Oh, and explain how the horrible governor in South Dakota has a death rate of 107 per 100k population, and the wonderful, lockdown loving Andrew "the Ripper" Cuomo a wonderlicious rate of 189 deaths per 100k population.

Idiot. Shouldn't you be spreading the Chinese flu and killing some people to help your bottom line and because traffic?

:popcorn:
 
But since you went there, if there has been an average of between 600-700 deaths per day trending for the last several weeks, and there are 69 days left in the year, that's approximately 45,000 (using 650 per day). Anything else?

Those 45,000 deaths occurred in just 38 days.

South Dakota’s Covid death rate for the past week is ten times higher than New York’s. TEN! She could have learned something from Cuomo, she did not. She could have seen it coming.

Who the **** could learn ANYTHING of worth from Cuomo? He has mishandled COVID worse than ANY Governor in the Nation and it's not even up for debate. He's literally committed murder with his policies.

But of course you revere that nut sack...

And per usual, you lap it up without question (I'm sure they are all solely Covid deaths with no irregularities whatsoever, right Floggy?) like the good little Dim bootlicker you are. Seriously, you pee sitting down, don't you? I'm trying to picture what you look like when you hear these 'numbers':

I can't think of anyone who's handled it worse. Oh wait, just one:

They build some seriously expensive buildings. I helped open one about 7 years ago. They tore down half of a strip mall foundation and all to build one. A few miles down the road they bought some gym that changed hands and names a few times,shut it down. Then went 2 miles away bought a shut down sports authority, redid the whole thing,chiseled through the foundation to stick in a pool. I used to wonder how in the hell they pay for this ****.
