Cuomo just said they've developed a technique to turn BIPAP machines into ventilators. Depending on how complicated the procedure is, this could be huge.

But he might have a virus
Which leads me to............we are well-stocked on supplies, but I am starting a ton of new home repairs. I have been painting. I am putting in new pavers in my landscaping. I am doing fence repair.......God, how I hate that at 63 years old. Anyway, I decided to venture out today to get the sand and pavers. While I was out, I went to the liquor store and bought a lot more beer and wine. I then went to Target and scored some hand sanitizer. They had about 20. Asked customers to limit to one per person. This crazy lady grabbed seven of them right beside me. Started yelling about how it was unfair to charge so much. I pointed to the sign and said there was a limit of one per person. She said: "f... that." I'm getting mines." I said I would like to get more, too..........but others need the product as well. She snorted and stomped off. I then went to Publix and bought more supplies. It's crazy because most people kept their distance and there were messages over the speaker system in 5 minute intervals about keeping your 6 foot social distancing and how we are all in this together. However, some people completely ignored all of it. I was grabbing some olive oil and these two ladies came right up to me and went shoulder to shoulder and grabbed the ones that were on sale. This crap went on and on and on. It amazes me how rude so many folks are. I can agree with you. our neighbor told us that the local Walmart had TP and tissues and paper towels when they were there just before talking to us. Wife and I decided to stop on the way to work in the morning to pick some up for my mom. People were just pushing there way passed others that were politely awaiting someone else to get there's and move on. One woman walked right up, grabbed a package of TP, turned her head and sneezed, never covering up. My wife about had a panic attack after the sneeze, she's been really emotionally affected by all this, especially not being able to visit/see our son in the last few weeks, so I grabbed our 1 pack (limit 1 per), and told my wife to go out the back of the aisle and lets head out. I told her to head out to the car, I would go pay. Crazy times.....
We don't have to agree with each other, to respect each others opinion.

Everyone should be very careful. There is no guarantee against getting this. It could take nothing more than a careless cough.
I am hopeful that those who have been consistently exposed to this over the past few weeks will prove to now be immune to it. I have a bit of a vested interest in this, as my brother works for the Sheriff's department at the county jail, and my sister-in-law is a nurse. One of my nieces works in a nursing home.
May God watch over each and every one of us, but especially those who willingly put their own lives and health at risk to serve others. They are truly heroes.

Speaking of hot zones, I have no clue what is going on in Mahoning County. I know I have only left the house 4 times since March 18th to run to the grocery stores of pharmacy, and twice to go for motorcycle rides. (totally alone on the bike and not within 10 feet of anybody) With all of my health problems I really can't afford to catch this crap. https://www.cleveland.com/datacentral/20...-case-rate.html GM, I don't know what is going on either these numbers are not good. And by the percentage of hospitalizations compared to cases, I would assume that there are many walking around infected that have not been tested. We have 26% of all deaths in the state in our 3 counties 17. They gave no info on Mahoning County other than they think it is all from community spread Up thru yesterday; State of Ohio Cases 2,547 Hospitalization-679 ICU-222 Passed-65 Mahoning Cases 177 Hospitalization-78 Trumbull Cases 58 Hospitalization-28 Columbiana Cases 19 Hospitalization-12

Better than N95, if you have a shop respirator, like you might wear for woodworking, with those pink P100 filters.... beats N95, though N95 are meant to be disposable. The upside, your respirator can be cleaned/wiped off and reused. Just don't touch your filters.... or, maybe bombard them with IR light?

Yep... I have a mask to wear though not sure if its n95 or not... I'll wear some old crappy shoes and I'll be using the garage as a DMZ... setting and leaving what we can in there for a few days, including clothing lol. We'll drive my car as well as I generally don't have to go anywhere. It will allow it to not have to be gone back in for awhile, whereas my wife has to go to work in hers.

My GF and I, both nurses, strip down in the garage. We have a table with a bleach solution squirt bottle and rag to set our phones and such on and clean them. Our clothes get quarantined there in the garage or immediately washed. You can’t be overly cautious. This virus doesn’t mess around. Neither do I.

I just wanted to mention that Lysol makes a laundry sanitizer, if anyone wants an extra level of protection. (If you can find any, that is)

Globally, we are over 1 million confirmed cases, and over 50,000 deaths.
Sad milestones that were reach waaaaay too quickly following how long it took to hit 100k/10k.

My wife just got back from Walmart fuming. A lady and her mother were in there letting her little girl of about 4 or 5 crawl and roll on the floor doing the worm, crawl on empty shelves and take items off shelves and put them back. They just gave a dirty look when my wife told the little girl to be careful because you don't know who's infected or what they touched, and that she could become very sick.

Do you have the number of days b/t each milestone?

1 million cases, 50,000 deaths, globally.
Globally there are 7.8 billion people, says google, and human lifespan is only 129 years.

Sadly, I feel those numbers are not accurate. Not your fault, at all. I just have a hard time believing China's numbers.

Oh, we can absolutely guarantee ourselves that they are not 100% accurate.
These are simply CONFIRMED cases.
Heck, just look at how impossible it is to get tested here in Ohio.... you could be a healthcare worker with symptoms and STILL not get tested.
So, under no circumstances should anyone think these numbers are the complete picture. Heck, if anything, multiply the numbers by like five.
Even deaths cannot be taken as an absolute unless they test every body post-mortem.
In the end, though, these are the numbers we have based on the testing the world has done.

I just went to the store to buy some buns, and pick up some prescriptions. There was a woman in line, and her daughter was reaching out to grab everything, and her mother just put stuff back. Then she licked her finger and wiped something off her daughter's face, then put that hand right back on the cart.

It was noted i think on CNN a couple days ago what the WHO said that it was their guess that the actual cases outside of China were about 9 or 10 times reported cases

This site has the daily US numbers towards the bottom. You can see as the # of cases and # of deaths trend upward, and how quickly.

Gotta love our media. Maybe Brian Williams will cure this thing. "CBS admits to using footage from Italy in NYC coronavirus report" nypost.com CBS News has admitted that alarming footage of an overflowing ward used during a report on the coronavirus crisis in Big Apple hospitals was actually shot in Italy. CBS’ breakfast show, “This Morning,” used the footage of a packed ward last Wednesday just after saying the pandemic’s epicenter was “found right here” in New York. The same footage had been aired earlier by Sky News — which correctly identified it as one of Europe’s “most hard-hit” hospitals located in Bergamo, Lombardy.
