So today it was announced that the first Covid 19 death happened here in Washington. I teach at a large college with a significant population of foreign students. About 5 weeks ago I was diagnosed with a severe case of pneumonia which laid me out for 2 straight weeks and I am just now barely feeling somewhat healthy. I have felt sicker in the past but have never totally knocked out for so long.

So guess who gets to go back to the hospital to be tested for Covid 19? My wife, a nurse, is pretty sure that I will test positive. Huzzah.

It's not hype when the hospital is calling my to implement new procedures.

Do i have it? Not likely but it would be stupid and irresponsible to not make sure.

My wife’s hospital implemented new procedures when the last thing came around. Let us know if you “Break on Through to the Other Side”.
Wait a minute. That won’t work

Oh, gonna haunt the shit of you! In fact, I'll try to make the rounds of all GGFers. If you hear your best guitar being played at maximum volume through you loudest amp in the wee hours, you know who it is!

Or maybe I'll just hide all of your picks.

Yes. That’s why I want you to tune them. There should be a headstock tuner on at least one of them.

The latest I saw says that the virus could have been circulating unreported for the last six weeks in Washington State. Samples from two unrelated patients were tested and are nearly identical, which suggests "community spread". The testing was done by - what seems to be - a reputable scientist/establishment, but I didn't see any corroboration. It wouldn't surprise me, though. That's pretty much how viruses work.

The research results were published on Twitter, though, which immediately knocks credibility in my book. A medium favored by teenage girls and a Cheez-Whiz colored POTUS... Not the most respected communication approach :D

Can’t you cool it with your political stuff? President cheese whiz uses Twitter because liberals love Twitter. He’s a trolling genius.
