Question 1 cannot be answered in anything other than guesses, although we prefer the term “estimate.” Best I have seen is 40-70%, but honestly we do not know.

Question 2 is harder. As far as we know, there have not been any folks catch it twice, but we really do not know. There are way too many unknowns with this thing.

Umm, yeah my neighbor is a plumber. He makes considerably more than me. I drive a used Honda. We are not hurting, but hardly rich. My paycheck is fine for us, and I love my job. So it’s all good.

This almost goes without saying, but if you smoke or vape, regardless of what you’re smoking or vaping, you might want to lay off for a while if at all possible.

Anybody else terrified at how the liar-in-chief will mangle the covid-19 situation? I am going to watch this because I feel I have to, but I also have a bottle of good mead for anesthesia afterward.

Rachel Maddow’s response to Trump’s verbal diarrhea shpuld be required viewing. Especially for anyone still spewing “it’s just like flu” bullshit. 10-30 million Americans requiring hospital beds in a country that has a total of roughly 1 million. Total. Banning travel from EU does absolutely nothing to help us.
