Looks like the less populated Tennessee counties under the control of the State's health department will be opening up next week. (Not Shelby, ect....)
Wow, I never thought I'd hear a Pro "States Rights" mini video on CNN. (Related to States deciding when to open for business or close due to the virus)
Initially, burying virus victims on an island in NYC seemed horrible, but I guess this is common? Normally 25 a week are buried here, but now it is at 40ish a week.
I'm not so sure comparing the virus death numbers to 9/11 is completely apples to apples. There is more than just numbers associated with the 9/11 "brand", for lack of a better term. There was emotion and malice associated with that date. This is bad viral Pneumonia.
We are also at a 1/5 of a Nagasaki for US Deaths.
15 Tarawa's
10.5 Annual SIDS
0.01 Auschwitz's
Just my 2 cents.
Looks like the USS Nimitz is affected too. I don't miss my berthing at 01-44 frame at all.

I read the first 3 books, but as soon as Honor gets a boyfriend, I lost interest in the story. I wanted more detailed space combat than kissy face time I guess.
Half days for those who want to be here. About a week before working from home, they spread us out all over the building for the required space. I got my own office... a 5 by 6 meeting room lol.
Does anyone here play Hearthstone? The new season starts today. I've been playing alot of Battlegrounds, but I hope this new batch of cards will get me playing the Standard decks again.
The numbers are concerning when you look at what percent of patients who go to the hospital because of bad symptoms, cases are confirmed, then they die. (1-2%)
The numbers seem more manageable when you look at confirmed cases per million population.
A couple of pages I use for statistics.
