You can:
1) Go to the store.
2) Go to a restaurant for pick-up or drive-thru.
3) Go to the park or hike on a trail, as long as you stay 6 feet away.
4) Go help friends in need.
You can't:
1) Go visit friends unnecessarily.
2) Visit people in the hospital or nursing home.
3) Go to work in an office if it isn't deemed an essential industry.
So... not much of a restriction, eh?
Asheville? Plenty of lunatics. Damn near have ruined a pleasant southern city.
Haha yep, we have lived in Asheville for a little over 2 years now. Lots and lots of crazy liberals here, but when you get outside city limits and into the county and surrounding areas, it’s a pretty conservative area. But liberals aside, it’s a great place to live, and really beautiful.

Probably should be..but..where I am no cases have be reported(Columbus Co.) No one wants to come to this place anyway..for business or pleasure. We are due a damn break anyway after suffering a double whammy on hurricanes.
They are saying most of the people here in the US with the virus are between the age of 20 and 44. That is like 40%. The bug seems to act differently here than in Europe. We have over 1000+ in serious or criticle conditions from this virus. Mainly the young. There are some with no underlining conditions.
I wonder if vaping has something to do with the different patien profile here.
Probably so, but I know 2 people in TN that are not smokers nor vapors and both are on ventilators. Now that says nothing of the 1000s that probably have it and are fine, but it only goes after old and sick people thing is looking like it's a myth
nobody is saying that all age groups aren't susceptible.....they're saying the kill rate (which the msm intentionally omits) mostly impacts the elderly as most healthy youth recover and become immune once contracted...
#ewesAndMuhProbably
I can't wait for the inevitable uproar when we 'finally' get a death under the age of 40 in the U.S.....
it'll be #helterFk'nSkelter times again fo' sho'....

Well, if she has a history of sinus issues and given it is pollen time, she may actually be right.

Several cities and counties in Georgia. Dougherty County (Albany) in Southwest Georgia did. They have a big problem, stories circulating that it started from a couple of big funerals. In one, two already sick people from Atlanta came down. Atlanta is on shelter in place. So is neighboring Decatur (6 miles east of downtown Atlanta, bordering each other near the Eastlake Golf Club home of the Atlanta Open).

Savannah's "shelter in place" order began yesterday. Statesboro's began Monday I believe.

Colorado
Tennessee
South Carolina
Those with 100+ new cases with 9903 new cases overall not including the new cases in PR and Guam. Our other 2 territories have none.
New death spikes by states
New York 43
Washington 15
Louisiana 14
Those are more than 10 deaths with a total of 132 new deaths overall with a new death in PR for them to go to 2 and the first death in Guam. That brings the total of deaths of US citizens to 548.
American Somoa and Northern Marinaras all have no cases of virus infected people and deaths. They locked down any travel from China from the start.
yesterday there were 10,168 new cases in the US.
6,393 of them were in California, New York or New Jersey (63%).
Today as of this posting, there are 9,144 new cases.
5,982 of them are from those 3 states (65%)
Now, could/will it take off in a bunch of other states? Possibly, but the big scary numbers don't look quite as scary when you realize 3 states account for nearly 50% of the cases across the entire nation.
roughly a day later, those 3 states now account for 37,875 of 63,098 total cases (60%).
they account for 5,286 of the 8,242 new cases today so far (64%).
NM's Little Gov. was on MSNBC Monday night, being praised that other states could learn from us on handling the virus. Word going around is she is using it to audition for Bidens VP.
Arkansas as the whole state is Shelter in place, but our governor will not say it that way since it is what New York, California and other states are doing.

My wife and I go to Pcola every month or two. While there I get the old man 2 months worth of Allegra D. Wonder drug for him. Cheaper over there than at the pharmacy here with his VA and medicare. Also good reason to hit McGuires for a Steak and $3 happy hour on Friday.

I was out jogging yesterday and was hocking the nastiness of loogies. They were about 4-6 inches in diameter with a solid orangish red center. And Ive been taking Zyrtec every day. Can't wait for this pollen to go away.
