Now I can’t leave my house? Am working from home while my kids are running around the house all day. oh boy I've been cutting way back on beer as well in order to drop a few lbs. Still drinking scotch, however, as I'm not insane. Polished off 2 different growlers over the weekend to help support local businesses. The growler/bottle shop that a friend owns isn't as impacted by the restaurant/bar closure in WA, but I'm not sure about my favorite brewery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One of our job sites is shut down because one of the GC’s foreman’s wife is suspected to have it. She’s not being tested because she’s not high risk. Now we’re quarantining our guys for on that job site for 2 weeks. It’s going to be such a clusterfuck having to shut down job sites for 2 weeks anytime there has been potential exposure.

JustinCharge 2,397 Posted March 16, 2020 There are currently 69 confirmed cases of coronavirus in Los Angeles county. There's 10 million people here. In 2 weeks there might be hundreds of thousands of cases, but its still a bit too early. https://mynewsla.com/crime/2020/03/15/l-a-county-confirms-16-more-coronavirus-cases-bringing-total-to-69-6/ L.A. County Confirms 16 More Coronavirus Cases, Bringing Total to 69 Posted by Contributing Editor on March 15, 2020 Local health officials confirmed 16 more cases of coronavirus Sunday, bringing the county’s total to 69, as Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti said the city would comply with California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s order to close all bars, and officials prepared to use Dockweiler RV Park south of LAX as a quarantine zone. Ten of the 69 cases are “likely due to community transmission,” the county health department said. The cases announced Sunday include one with an unidentified source of exposure, three cases exposed during recent travel, two cases of health-care workers exposed in a health-care setting, four who had close contact with a confirmed case, and five that are pending more investigation. The 16th case was previously reported Saturday by Long Beach officials, as that city has its own health department. “We anticipate more cases and increased community spread as more testing occurs,” said Dr. Barbara Ferrer, L.A. County’s public health director. “We are asking everyone to expect more social distancing requirements as more cases are identified. Please do not call 911 to request testing for COVID-19 and please do not go to our emergency rooms unless you are seriously ill and require emergency care.

How many people have died in LA county this year from the regular flu? i believe there are what 20,000+ plus deaths from regular flu in the US this season. Why no hysteria about that?

Why no hysteria about that? How does this compare to other seasons? The mortality rate of the flu is estimated at like 0.1%. The mortality rate for COVID-19 is something like 2%-3%. Towards the higher end if we do nothing and allow coronavirus to run rampant and overwhelm hospitals with patients. COVID-19 isn't gonna wipe out humanity but its definitely killing at a higher rate than normal. We're quarantining in the US as a science experiment it seems.
