Good thing I'm relatively young bc the market is cooked for a few months. LOL @ California blaming the CDC for not testing when this guy has all the clinical symptoms of something they've known for the better part of a month.

Yep, was just typing the same thing about airport vs. aircraft.

I caught the flu once at DFW (had to be given the time frame from that flight to getting sick) and it was the worst case ever. My doctor thought it was probably a foreign strain given how sick I was and for how long. It was well outside the normal US flu season, and that year's flu season had been very mild with a good vaccine. Ran a fever of 103, often spiking to 105, for 5 straight days. Missed 10 days of work (usually only miss 5-7 with the flu) and lost over 20lbs. Didn't feel normal again for almost 3 months.
that sounds like mono
Didn't have the symptoms of mono and it was a positive flu test. Doc said he was going to see about sending it off off for additional testing to see what strain it was since it was so bad and was unusual for late spring/early summer. I never asked him if he did.

I wasn't sick for 3 months, just didn't have a lot of energy. My body spent everything it had fighting off that bugger that it left me wasted. On the positive side, didn't get the flu for 5 years after that.


What year was that? I picked up the same thing in 2013. I've never been so sick in my life. I felt like a shell of myself after I finally beat it (over a week later).

Anyone seeing this reported elsewhere? Nothing on TV saying it's happening.
If there is one, it might be about this.

Good buying opportunity. It may correct, but it will eventually recover. Many other fundamentals are pretty sound.


You might want to factor President Sanders into your equation about when the stock market will recover.

The democratic presidential chances went up significantly this week. And wait till people start dying and the Dems and MSM blame it all on Trump. Vote for Bernie in Operation Chaos only if you are willing to play Russian roulette.

I learned a long time ago not to start denying things until I'm 100% certain as to what it is I've done. I'm still not sure if I'm hooking up with Batman, Catwoman, you, a Chinese dog, or another, yet to be identified, entity.

Economy might slow temporarily, but does that make the stocks less valuable? There will probably be some value buying opportunities ahead.

hey, the post I was responding to above asked about the animal vector and how it got from Bats to people.

I gave a possible solution.


Ok. I'll admit I have a thing for kinky chicks in vinyl body suits. Outside of that I have no possible culpability.

The Dem media lackeys are running with a new "whistleblower" story that federal CDC staff were flown to CA to work with quarantined folks, didn't use PPE, then flew back commercial.

While careless and idiotic, it hardly reaches whistleblower territory.

I see the Dems are going to do to the concept of a whistleblower what they did to the concept of impeachment.

****ing clowns trying to capitalize on an incredibly serious and dangerous situation.

HHS Whistleblower says workers without protective gear or proper training met coronavirus evacuees

Some excerpts from the story
Quote:

Officials at the Department of Health and Human Services sent more than a dozen workers to receive the first Americans evacuated from Wuhan, China, the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak,without proper training for infection control or appropriate protective gear, according to a whistleblower complaint.

The workers did not show symptoms of infection and were not tested for the virus,according to lawyers for the whistleblower, who is a senior HHS official based in Washington who oversees workers at the Administration for Children and Families, a unit within HHS.

The complaint alleges that HHS staff were "improperly deployed" and were "not properly trained or equipped to operate in a public health emergency situation."

The workers were in contact with passengers in an airplane hangar where evacuees were received and on two other occasions: when they helped distribute keys for room assignments and hand out colored ribbons for identification purposes.

About 14 ACF personnel were sent to March Air Force base in Riverside County, California, and another team of about 13 ACF personnel were sent to Travis Air Force in Fairfield, California, according to the complaint and the whistleblower's lawyer, Ari Wilkenfeld. Several people within HHS voiced objection to sending the ACF personnel to receive passengers, according to a person familiar with the conversations, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss private deliberations.

A second person familiar with the situation said the workers were not tested for coronavirus because none of them met the criteria for testing, which only calls for testing people who had recent travel to China or contact with a confirmed case. The workers also did not exhibit any symptoms, the person said.

After their deployments, the workers returned to their normal duties, some taking commercial airline flights to return to their offices around the country, the lawyers said.

"Our client was concerned that ACF staff who were potentially exposed to the coronavirus were allowed to leave quarantined areas and return to their communities, where they may have spread the coronavirus to others," said Lauren Naylor, one of the whistleblower's lawyers.

Some workers expressed concern about the lack of protective gear to the ACF team leader on the ground. That person joined ACF in September and had "no training or experience in any federal emergency management, public health emergency response, or safety or operational protocols to run the mission," the complaint states.
So HHS alledgedly allowed folks without proper PPE to meet the wuhan flights where the aircrew was in moon suits...

It's the flu. Know how many people died of the flu in the US last year; About 56,000... This is nothing. Just fear mongering.
fear mongering? Are you an idiot? This is potentially far more serious than our flu. You need to stop listening to Trump's lies and listen to the scientists. It amazes me that we have idiots in our country who believe Trump's lies over the statements & warnings of our scientists.

By the way, flu killed 12,000 last year in the US, not 56K which is still way to much. Vast majority did not get a vaccine shot and suffered the consequences.

Also please understand that our flu did not shutdown Global transportation of goods which the coronavirus has already done in it's very early beginnings.

Fear monitoring my ass.

https://time.com/5610878/2018-2019-flu-season/
Quote:

Even still, high early-season vaccination rates and a relatively effective annual vaccine appeared to help suppress illnesses. In total, the CDC estimates that up to 42.9 million people got sick during the 2018-2019 flu season, 647,000 people were hospitalized and 61,200 died. That's fairly on par with a typical season, and well below the CDC's 2017-2018 estimatesof 48.8 million illnesses, 959,000 hospitalizations and 79,400 deaths.

Let's assume that massive layoffs do happen in O&G, do you think a person that gets laid off really thinks Bernie or the bunch is going to give them a new job? Or are you saying they think that welfare/redistribution will be better than putting Trump back in the WH?
