Coworker said he went to watch the news this week and the intro was "BREAKING NEWS coming up......Chrissy teigen getting implants removed....I know it's sad they are very nice looking (had to see what they looked like before they r gone) and the story is more interesting than covid but the media trying to make reports shock and aw is ridiculous.
Probably one of the best articles to ever come from our local news.

He makes a very valid point about a more tailored approach to targeting the "at-risk" groups. Unfortunately, that is not how our current zero discrimination society works. We can't tell people over a certain age that they are not allowed to go outside or to work and that they have to self isolate while everyone else continues to go to the office. We can't tell black people, or people with health issues to stay home by order of law without running the risk, not only to government but also businesses, for discrimination lawsuits. The only way to avoid that is to do it equally across the board or not at all. Every category that we could slice a population in to is discriminatory anymore.
The point that we're at now is the data is there, the risk is known, it's time to let Americans be Americans and exercise free will.
I totally get what you are saying and sadly have to agree with you. Yet my greatest fear comes from just a few words of your post, and that those words predict our ever nearing future. Those words are "equally across the board". Because equally across the board is nothing short of socialism.
No way for them not to with the increase in testing. Erie county is offering public testing, my FIL/MIL both go this week and neither have a reason to believe they were exposed.
I haven't seen this in our county of Huron yet, is this happening elsewhere?
This was expected. What I don’t see happening is the second wave they thought would be worse than the first wave.
According to the Ohio DOH website, overall infection numbers are down. Today we are 480 new cases in the last 24 hours, with only 8 ICU admissions. The 21 day average is down, as is the calculated Rt. The italians believe the virus has weakened to the point of being 'clinically insignificant' in Italy. That's saying something in a country with single payer health care.
"Hey Mike, wanna use some of my frequent flyer miles, for a trip to Italy? They'd like to show you something"

What kind of stupid ass shit is this? What a dumbass. Way to make Ohio look stupid.

Her tenure was sealed the day she signed a health order to stop an election circumventing the state legislature and a judge.
She had my support, until she published revised estimatea for a second time. It was then apparent she didn't want to admit the error.

I'm sorry, what virus are y'all talking about? Sounds scary.
