My boss doesn't care. He says it's a hoax and refuses to close even though there are confirmed (and who knows how many unconfirmed) cases in our area. At what point do I stand up for myself and my family (who are all quarantine through their jobs already) and say I'm not coming in? It's a tough situation, and I'm praying for a national lock down sooner than later Wait another week to find out you need a national quarantine and things are still going to get exponentially worse over the following two weeks.

That 'Only some' are the people that can afford to take 2 weeks off or who can work from home. We who are unable to work from home and who do not get paid sick time HAVE to come in to work. It is a choice between getting a paycheck and making the mortgage payment or self quarantine and go into default... I think it's kinda silly (not useless) that only some of us are actually quarantining now. It would make much more sense that everyone did it at the same time and then count 15 days to see if we have made an impact on this situation.

Considering close to half the country voted for Donald dump in 2016, I have very low expectations of people actually researching then choosing their candidates. Sanders has a way stronger plan imo. It needs to be nationwide. We saw what happened in Italy, where the news of a pending regional quarantine was leaked and hundreds of people immediately hopped on trains to other regions of the country. Let’s not repeat that here. The problem is that if you try to quarantine a major city like NYC or Seattle, people immediately scurry to surrounding areas where there aren’t quarantines and continue to spread the virus there.

It's now 2 weeks straight in the US of every action getting some criticism for overreacting and then seeming obvious 3 days later. We should all have caught onto this pattern by now and we should jump to the action that seems like overreacting in the present. If I was a betting type person I'd say this is what Ohio is doing, leading into a full shutdown other than essentials. (Banks, fuel, groceries, healthcare, other essentials) They desperately need to close malls, traffic has honestly increased as they are still open and all kids now are out of school, everyone here thinks nothing is wrong.

Is it possible the local news hasn’t been crying wolf with every threatening disease— people just stopped taking it seriously after a while because the correct precautions were put in place and we didn’t see the consequences of NOT being extra careful? Ebola made it to the US and they enacted STRICT procedures and put a pandemic team in place just for this kind of situation. When swine flu was going around people WERE extra careful. Not to the point we have to be now because it didn’t get here. Also, this originated in China which went out of its way to hide the problem until it was FAR too late.

This guy is making too much common sense. I bet this is probably going to happen. Like what happened with the Las Vegas casinos, it sounds like they are trying to ease the public/ massage the public into this. They just keep hinting at it, then letting only one or two cities do it, and then wham, everyone does it. That is not exactly what is going on. No one wants to make decisions through this and take responsibility. Local governments are waiting and hoping for the higher state and federal authorities to make decisions. Trump is telling the state and local governments to make decisions and try and get what they need. Buy it:  Dia De Los Muertos Day Of Dead Skeleton Dance Party Shirt

No cash handouts required. People who depend on receiving these payments who suffer a loss of income, will also not be responsible for any of their payables for the same time period. There should be a mandatory quarantine for 30 days and ALL payables including mortgages, rents, credit cards, auto payments, utilities, taxes, debts or structured payments of any kind should be SUSPENDED for 30 days. I think this would be super effective and allow people to stay at home without work, or worse, going out to work in desperation and causing more potential contacts/cases unnecessarily.

You will still owe those bills. These banks and corporations don't give a damn about you. Hell, they will probably find ways to make money off this. People are in for a rude awakening if they think the govt is going to be here to help. When has the govt ever helped the common man? All they do is bailout airlines, corporations and banks. CEOS still get hundreds of millions in a parachute when their company loses it all and employees are left with nothing. The people making these policies don't live in our world and don't care about our consequences.  Buy it:  Sugar Skull Kitty Dia De Los Muertos Mexican Holiday Shirt

I know that once testing starts call centers like the ones we work in will be ground zero to large amounts of cases. My wife and I are young and healthy, but so many people we work with are older, overweight, and have preexisting conditions. I fear for them and this country. I hope we can make the right decisions, and I hope it’s not too late when we do. Sadly it might already be too late. they truly are essential. Maybe not everyone in the business, but most of them. Having reliable internet and communications in this time is critical, more important than ever. Also banks, you don't need physical cashiers, but you need people to unlock your cards, to handle your finances, to stop fraud etc. Buy it:  Sugar Skull Panda Day Of The Dead Dia De Los Muertos Shirt

A national quarantine is the only thing that will get company’s like AT&T, Comcast, and Big Banks to send their employees home. All of them have grounded themselves on the “we are essential”. My wife and I work for companies in buildings that are 500+ people in size. Coughing, sneezing, and sickness is just being overlooked. We’re being told that if we call out sick we will have corrective action taken.  Most people are a paycheque or two away from homelessness. I know I can’t afford even groceries for 4 months without pay, let alone rent and bills. And I live alone, I can’t imagine the stress of supporting a family.

The best effect would be a national quarantine but right now it’s pretty close to that with most schools closed and anyone with a desk job working from home. That’s all you can do and hope it’s enough assuming people will deviate from the rules. We can’t lock people in their houses from the outside like in China, so we’ll do the best we can within the limits Americans are willing to accept. We already bungled the first month with almost no testing and a laid back response. Buy it:  Flower Skull Halloween Gardening Floral Dia De Los Muertos Day Of Dead Shirt

I see the math and understand the stakes but I'm tired of bullshit "from the gut" reactions that don't take into account expert judgement and planning for more than next week. I'm also suspicious of experts who describe an abstract set of best practices in their field without recognizing that experts in other fields can tell them which of those things can actually be accomplished and sustained over many months. Yes but I'm talking about how to lower the curve. If we don't incorporate human behavior (and failings!) Into our planning our approach itself will fail. We will take politically dramatic actions that don't have the best effect. Buy it:  Day Of The Dead Dia De Los Muertos Sugar Skull Girl Shirt

Up to 150 million people in the US are expected to contract this per a closed-door report to Congress by the congressional physician. If the death rate is 2%, that’s 3 million dead. If we lower the curve so hospitals can handle all cases, maybe we get it down to 1% and save 1.5 million lives. In comparison, that’s still nearly four times the amount of Americans killed in WWII, and that’s a best case scenario with quarantine.

And the study mentioned. The deal seems to be that suppression with intermittent breaks works well if the breaks are short enough so they don't allow the virus to be widely established AND IF the approach is used all the way until a vaccine is found. The result of alternative approaches are disasters of varying but staggering magnitude. Don't we have to think about how long people will actually stay in quarantine once it is started? There is a practical and psychological aspect which we seem to be glossing over for economic and best theoretical approach reasons. Buy it:  Artistic Rage Skulls And Raven Day Of The Dead Shirt

At least my boss agreed with me, which is a good thing because he's the vice president and operations manager, but he doesn't have final day on things. He can only make suggestions to the president of the company and the ownership group. Oh well. Hopefully things will work out and somebody will start making the hard decisions soon.

Someone needs to hold these companies liable for their decisions to put workers in harm's way. Is there not a union? Someone needs to let management know that if their decisions harm lives, there will absolutely be lawsuits.  That’s completely opposite of what the big boss said via email. She told me this on Friday as she was going to fly to Mexico for vacation that night. Ffs! I want to pull my hair out at how stupid people are.

I’ve been having very interesting discussions in my psychology classes at university about how this will continue happening. Humans are very empirical creatures, just the way we evolved. We see a lion, we run. We see a sexual partner, we mate. Humans are almost exclusively focused on what’s directly in front of them, happening right now. We’re really really bad at logical future planning or acting on things before they happen. It’s just not how our brains are wired deep down.

I wish they would so I could just work from home. We were gathered and harshly spoken to today - basically saying we need to get rid of any ideas of not coming to work because of irrational panic. We were told if we don’t come to work we will not be paid and if we stay home for any extended period we will be let go. 90% of our office personnel can do their job from home and we have all been supplied with the computers, Mouses, keyboard, docking stations etc to work from home (upon hire).

Look at the comments on that feed. Most of them are people who don't seem to understand AT ALL how this virus works. Saying their lives will be disrupted because they have to work. Yikes. We're well past the point where that matters. Many (me included) have already lost all their income. I was talking to my wife about this last night.

While this sounds easy, how will a country that is built on commerce and money survive? So everyone is locked in their homes. And then what happens? You realize almost everything we do requires humans unless you think robots run the world. Where is the source of income coming from for families who live week to week? Humans have to man these plants to deliver utilities and resources. Does that go away? This isn't some video game. This is real life. A national quarantine would have crippling ramifications.

Yeah. People like that I think will have a very hard time when other, less fortunate people become desperate though. I know some people have talked about where they can "get" money, food, or whatever, when things get real bad. Worries me, because I wonder how many other people, who struggle with putting food on the table, will resort to when things get worse. That's the main reason why I just bought a shotgun for protection. Do I think we're going to fall into a dystopia hellscape within a week?

We were on spring break last week. I had several students ask me before break if I thought we would end up having school cancelled due to the virus. I told them I'd be shocked if we didn't lose at least a week or two. They were really surprised - but I told them I'd been following the story for a couple of months and when it got here, we'd be closed. Good advice. If you're over 40 or immunocompromised, go ahead and ask the boss if he has a Ouija board, maybe leave one lying around where he will find it.

The best solution is to pursue drugs to treat it to mitigate symptoms in people where they get bad, as much as possible. And promote quarantining and social isolation to keep the spread slow, so that hospitals aren't overwhelmed at once while treating patients. It's almost impossible to totally prevent it until a vaccine is available, if one ever does pass trials, since this disease is just too contagious and a vaccine is so far out. Clinging all hopes to a vaccine is absolutely not the answer. Coronavirus vaccines are notoriously difficult and risky. SARS, a closely related disease and virus, still doesn't have a vaccine and that outbreak was like 2003. Buy it:  Dia De Los Muertos Funny Day Of The Dead Hanging Skulls Shirt

I think talking about weeks is more to ease people into the idea of shutting everything down. Look how much panic there has been over talk of a two week shutdown. Meanwhile the CDC recommendation for social distancing is 8 weeks, and schools will surely be closed for the remainder of the school year. But if you start saying that from the get go you will have riots and fighting and scared people REALLY panic buying.

The government has said it's unnecessary, and although there are cities where it is enforced, they're relying on social distancing, working from home, extensive testing and hygiene measures. You do need to wear a mask on public transport though. It's largely succeeding, although I'm critical of it. Some of the Nordic countries too. But AFAIK in the EU mask wearing isn't really political like in the US. You just have the usual weirdoes who spend too much time on the internet gobbling up propaganda, who have gone off the deep end. But usually people simply follow government and medical advice.
