Guys like you will be working through it all, we need food and shit has to move, in your job you can control your contact with others somewhat too and sanitize at the wheel etc. Just keep your distance and stay in the cab when dealing with others.
That's a big 10-4

Food and store distribution truck drivers can work and drive 24/7 right now, the Hours Of Service regulations are lifted on those drivers

So stay off the road to avoid being hit by over worked truck drivers that may fall asleep at the wheel. That’s a bigger 10-4.

Hopefully those workers get paid. Go grocery shopping instead of eating out every day. You're old, dont get corona'd

Gonna go up to the grocery store in a few minutes to see in any local panic set in. Just as soon as my gardener Jose (Al) is done feeding the plants in the grow, he works for the compassion club and gets a nice share of the grow for his skilful efforts. He's almost fully trained now, he hates harvest and I told him that is the sign of a true pot grower.
harvest is a mixed bag for me..happy that it's time..sad because I got to know each one individually..I usually run a set of 15.

I have friends in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, Scotland (fuck calling them Brits, they aren't) Great Britain & Ireland & they are all saying the same thing, and that is they can't find toilet paper.
What's up with that?
Eventually this will be called the Great Toilet Paper Flu of 2020 :)
Yep toilet paper panic has struck here too, there are some paper towels on the shelf though, hand sanitizer is gone etc. Everything else in full supply and just slightly larger than usual crowds, no general panic, just preparation and that stupid toilet paper thing. People need to realise that bumwad is made in North America and the factorie will just put on extra shifts and work weekends. Everybody who overbought won't be out in 2 weeks or a month buying toilet paper, many won't have to for 6 months. My friend is an assistant manager there and he agrees with the above assessment and said he figures the place will be empty next week after most people are prepared and they might cut hours for the staff. He figures in a week or two there will be plenty of toilet paper, in the interim, they are still publishing newspapers.

As I got into my car I saw 6 large packages of toilet paper filling the entire back seat of the compact car next to mine, many months supply for some panicked soul, they won't be looking for more for awhile.

Do you think people freak out about this when told we’re not really voting for the president? Their vote really doesn’t count. But they line up to vote just like they lined up at Costco.
Non White Males have been dealing with these voter suppression tactics for a century now, and have learned that is why you have to overwhelmingly turn out to vote to make change.

As bad as this is, and scary as it is to think about standing in a line forever, it will be much worse if Trump and the Republicans get 4 more years of power in DC.

Lining up to vote for president is pointless. Why would I waste my time voting in a system that doesn’t even base the winner on the results of the votes? If you have to make things more complicated than they need to be, there is usually a reason.

How much longer until you want the borders closed down?
Up to the government, the US death rate and serious illness rate is 6 times the Canadian rate, maybe when it gets to 10 times the Canadian rate. The US has an awful lot of infected people walking around, every country is imposing travel restrictions and closing borders, this is nothing radical. You might not be allowed to travel out of state soon in America, let alone to Canada.

Mexicans are looking to get out of America and will be streaming across the border for the "safety" of Mexico!

Then don't vote and stop talking about politics since you're a non participant, you don't care enough to vote, but enough to make uninformed comments about there being no difference between the parties etc. Stay home then, everybody else is gonna vote, Coronavirus or not and Donald is toast..

Live in the world you are in and deal with the reality that is presented to you, if ya want utopia then get rid of Trump first, then talk about it.

80k votes across five states was all it took for Trump to pull off the victory.

The Russians pushed that narrative hard in 2016 to over 100 million voters to get the win forTrump. Only by voting do we have the ability to overcome the foreign militaries attempts to tear apart our democracy by suppressing the votes of the people who won't vote for their racist political puppets.

If you are what you say, an American, don't fall for this nonsense. If nothing else your vote matters in the one true democratic seat at the Federal level, the House member of your district. Don't let the voter suppression and Republican racist gerrymandering win in 2020. Voting is very important.

Say what you want. The person with the most votes doesn’t win. Therefore by simple math it doesn’t matter.

And to call everyone UnAmerican is a very American thing to do now when people don’t agree with u.

He's too used to dealing with hookers and leaving cash on the night table. He not only helped cause the situation and is fucking up the response, now apparently he's trying to profit from human misery and death. You might have to impeach this animal again this summer, at Mitch McConnell's request this time!


Coronavirus: anger in Germany at report Trump seeking exclusive vaccine deal
MPs and ministers criticise display of ‘self-interest’ and accuse US president of electioneering
German ministers have reacted angrily following reports US president Donald Trump offered a German medical company “large sums of money” for exclusive rights to a Covid-19 vaccine.

“Germany is not for sale,” economy minister Peter Altmaier told broadcaster ARD, reacting to a front page report in Welt am Sonntag newspaper headlined “Trump vs Berlin”.

The newspaper reported Trump offered $1bn to Tübingen-based biopharmaceutical company CureVac to secure the vaccine “only for the United States”.

The German government was reportedly offering its own financial incentives for the vaccine to stay in the country.

The report prompted fury in Berlin. “German researchers are taking a leading role in developing medication and vaccines as part of global cooperation networks,” foreign minister Heiko Maas told the Funke Mediengruppe research network. “We cannot allow a situation where others want to exclusively acquire the results of their research,” said Maas, of the centre-left SPD.

“International co-operation is important now, not national self-interest,” said Erwin Rüddel, a conservative lawmaker on the German parliament’s health committee.


Trump 'offers large sums' for exclusive US access to coronavirus vaccine

Christian Lindner, leader of the liberal FDP party, accused Trump of electioneering, saying: “Obviously Trump will use any means available in an election campaign.”

The German health minister, Jens Spahn, said a takeover of CureVac by the Trump administration was “off the table”. CureVac would only develop vaccine “for the whole world”, Spahn said, “not for individual countries”.

Worldwide infections have grown to more than more than 86,000, according to the Johns Hopkins university tracker, while cases inside China stood at 80,860 as of Monday. Deaths outside China have risen to more than 3,241, while deaths in mainland China stand at 3,208 as of Monday.

At a news conference on Sunday, interior minister Horst Seehofer was asked to confirm the attempts to court the German company. “I can only say that I have heard several times today from government officials today that this is the case, and we will be discussing it in the crisis committee tomorrow,” he said.

So spreading disinformation and trying to kill Americans in a national emergency, maybe @potroast should ban your ass as a national security and public health threat. Opinions are one thing, what you are doing is criminal, stupid and serves no purpose, not even your own.
He's the kind of asshole that will say, "see, it was nothing" if the current measures are successful.

The internet is a form of communication where the idiots have a huge advantage.
