  1. Orders in at spy 206 204 202 and 200. If it just blows right past that then I guess my entry point was s and p 2000. Not sure if I will shut my eyes and hold no matter what or take profits if it bounces high enough. I can't be a pussy forever. Been in all cash since April 2019 so I'm ahead of most.
  2. Any studies out showing transmission to health care workers (Outside of Wuhan). Seems including Wuhan HCW would be skewed since Im sure it took a while for them to adapt.
  3. I will read up on how to do this tonight but can someone explain to me like Im 12 how to put in a limit order? to buy XXX shares of SPY at 206. I dont want my first limit order to fuck up and buy a million shares of CHK. Unfortunately I am considered essential personnel and dont have the option to ever work from home regardless of what type of lock down there is. Unless you nerds dont want your meds... My MM account is through vanguard
  4. My experience is only anecdotal. I’ve seen people get better on treatment and people get worse. I’d say the sample size of our hospital is too small to make any judgements , but nothing close to what I’d call impressive. That’s a bit how it goes treating severe lung infections. Improvement is often slow. Even with appropriate antibiotic treatment of typical bacterial pneumonias once you get a lot of inflammation setting in, improvement is like turning a battleship. It’s slow. Is it standard of care now to start all hospitalized covid19 patients on them both immediately? If so are you seeing less progression from mild / moderate to severe symptoms? I could easily see giving both meds to a patient already at a severe stage with ards and hypoxia being a coin flip at best. My honest thoughts are once you intubate with ards not much is going to work as the damage has been done and likely life long damage even if they do live.
  5. Sit them down and have the read the stories posted on those their age dying. If that doesnt work have them read the front line reports of how the virus kills you and what that is like...the inability to breathe, intubation, basically drowning in your own blood (find youtube videos of ARDS patients)...and that while it is low odds for them to get to that point it is much higher for you and your wife and much higher for their grandparents. If that doesnt work, offer them a grand each per month to stay at home. If they go out for even 1 night, the money is off the table.
  6. HAHA. I remember that class. She had us all stand up when she was talking about what the average person was. She first had all the women sit down, then all the minorities, then anyone who wasnt 5'9'', then anyone who wasnt 150 lbs. At the end I was the only one standing. Ill never forget that.
  7. Im really starting to think we have 4 weeks total of mandatory quarantine, all ages. Then we move to a mandatory quarantine of those 65 and older indefinitely while opening back up the economy with social distancing and hygiene. And let it burn through the under 65 population.
  8. And this is with nursing homes in the US contributing significantly to our death toll.
  9. Whole family having horrible allergies in the last 48 hours. 2020 is not a good year to have allergies....
  10. Started flying my flag outside our house. Not sure why I felt the desire to do so but it will stay up until this is over .
  11. Dec 2018 low. Its what all the retracements so far have been based on. S and P of 2351.
  12. NSAIDS can cause an upregulation (increase) of ACE2 receptors. COVID19 binds to ACE2 receptors in the lungs. If more are available to bind to the virus, this MAY cause a more severe response. ie cytokine storm, leading to hospitalization. For my family we will use tylenol for any aches and fevers this time around.
  13. Its a double whammy to buy. A 40% drop from the S and P high of 3383 is 2029. Also 2k is a psychological barrier. Dow 20k is one too but Im not holding my breath on that. I think it pops briefly when the dow hits 20k then keeps heading down. My only angst isnt whether to go all in at 2k....I am...Its going to be if I take potential profits thinking it will retest or fall even lower. A couple more points...LOTS of people are home right now and for the foreseeable future. Trading seems like a good way to pass the time. I think 2k S/P will be a big bounce especially if it is within the next 2-5 days.
  14. This makes me feel better.
  15. I grew up in Amarillo. They just got their first swine flu case last week.
  16. I'm getting covid19 news fatigue. I may take a break for a while.
  17. Flower Mound has joined in the craziness. Kroger mostly out of Milk, bread, and meats. Same with Market Street.
  18. They are saying those ACE2 receptors dont magically go away immediately after you stop taking your Lisinopril. It takes time for the body to adjust.
  19. Yup looks like you can get them on Amazon with no Rx as they are for daily health use. Now I have to ask myself how ridiculous it is for me to order one of these. My wife has asthma as do I so we have the albuterol here.
  20. Do you need a script to buy an oxygen concentrator ? Im reading you do but admittedly I havent done much research.
  21. To the md’s on this site , how crazy would it need to get to ease the requirements for home O2. Seems like that would help if the shit hits the fan. of the 15-20% who need hospitalization, are the majority of those just on the floor with 2L nasal canula and q6 albuterol. Pretty sure lots can do this at home.
  22. Can the fed create money out of thin air and buy stock with it ? Is that a thing? One single account propped up bitcoin for the entire run up in 2017.
  23. that’s like an s and p of 1600 by Tuesday
  24. We are going to retest the 2350 S and P December 2018 lows tonight . Jesus.
