Hopefully they are close to finding a vaccine. Vaccine is probably a year out - at least several months, end of year? However, besides the hydroxychloroquine/chloroquine - azithromycin combo (and have read it also with Tamiflu, or zinc, or a couple of other anti-virials) - showing some promise (but...

Other things not cancelled - house and yard work!!!!!

Two weeks - Ha - that's nothing. Now we are supposed to "social distance" for another 30 days. For us - 70-ish and wife has COPD - that means at home (except for medical - have friends that have volunteered to get groceries/supplies as needed - bless 'em) I think we are probably good for at least tw...

Anybody know if the pier deck replacement is continuing during the beach closure? Hope so, so it is done when pier reopens.

We are severely curtailing our social activities. All "group" meetings events that affect us have been canx. Being both 70-ish, and wife with COPD we are high risk. Getting stay at home house/yard work done. Governor has ordered all bars/lounges closed for 30 days as of 5 PM yesterday. I'm sure spri...

Love it.
Watched TV last night. The show Bull. Though it was filmed several months ago, was about anthrax getting out of a lab.

With the bulk of the current news - need some humor. Previous levity re-purposed.

Yea, the public in this country (and others) act on rumors and innuendo, as hard to find the actual facts. Heard/read another example (that I didn't recall). Some ne stated that in about 2008 Joe Biden made a comment that he thought same bank (in CA?) was "in trouble"(?). Lead to the bank failure, a...

As a person, also with a long medical background, I echo P'Kids thoughts. The more data I read, the more this is about the same as seasonal flu. P'kid already mentioned the death rate for that. It is not anywhere as deadly as SARS (10+%), MERS (30+%), nor Ebola (up to 70+%). I believe the death rate...

I don't know if it was a joke or not but saw 5' x 5' sections of the old decking from the octagon were being offered on facebook marketplace LOL.

According to local news - no joke!

Just to point out, the economy started tanking when the Dems took over congress (both houses) starting January 2007, two years before the end of Bush 43's term in January 2009. Some of their policies, and propose...
