    ok so after the crazy 506 new cases on 6/21 there were only 129 new cases on 6/22. So hopefully that trend will continue.

    21 new admits 6/22 with a total of 181 hospitalized currently. ICU use has jumped up big with 84 on 6/21 & 86 on 6/22.

    The real interesting piece will be to track the demographic data. The main group (data only shown through 6/16) that has been rising has been Hispanic (non-white).

    Curious to see breakdown by age and race in coming weeks.

     

    I've heard from a Dr. friend in Dallas that a lot of the new cases are people coming back from Mexico and bringing the virus along.

    One of the leading proponents for criminal justice reform has issues related to a federal crime being overly broad.  Has nothing to the with party - everything to due with trying limit the unintended consequences of another federal crime law.

    Honestly, the protests here have been massive.  There seems to be zero leg to stand on here by both NY State and NY City officials.  You have let protests do whatever the hell they want to do for 2-3 weeks.  It is time to let us go shopping and go sit at an outdoor bar if we so wish.  

    This is the Black Trans Lives Matter protest in Brooklyn yesterday.  I am not seeing a lot of social distancing going on.

     

    Did I miss something in the news that necessitated a black-trans-specific protest or are they just being attention horses?

    Lol, who knows? Not poor, get a new one every year.

    I'm far from poor.  From what i've read the 12 isn't going to have much over the 11.  If I can save a few hundred by waiting a month or two to upgrade, I can spend that one something else. like hookers.

    That’s 100% what’s happening. I run sales and more of the office stuff for a mechanical contractor here in Austin. I used to go into the shop multiple times per week. I have not been in since early March.
     

    We have not slowed down. Our full time supervisors and production manager still go in but not in the morning rush. There is nothing we can do about the warehouse and subs picking up materials, they have to come to the shop every morning. We check temperatures daily and have provided masks. One thing. We have noticed as only one guy from a crew comes in because the don’t want to risk getting their temperatures taken and not be sent with work. We do SF so distancing on the job is fine. The real hot beds are the Mf and commercial jobs. The other thing is a lot of subs live with a lot of other essential workers and they are all still spreading out over the city and coming back home every night in crammed multi-generation living situations.

    fixed with another probable factor to consider.

    He was Alex Jones.  He deserves to be attacked on general principles.

    You may be joking  (or maybe not) but this attitude is part of the general problem.  How about we concentrate on not attacking people?  Even the ones we don't like.

     There is hatred in the hearts of so many people like me (southern white Repub). It really disgusts me, and I used to think half of Bernard threads were bullshit. 

    It's not JUST southern republicans.  Minneapolis is neither.  That chick in Central park was neither.  Ferguson, MO is neither.  There is hate in the heart of people all over this country regardless of political affiliation and location.  Hell, all over this world.

    I downloaded the app and signed in with my AT&T credentials.  I bet those fuckers still charge me, though.  And I'm still yelling at clouds about all of these different streaming services.

    You can log into AT&T and check your cell plan to see if its included.  I think it may only be included with unlimited data plans.
