A mask isn't as important as CONSTANTLY washing your hands and NEVER touching your face.

In a worse case scenario, wear a full faced motorcycle helmet.
don't forget the eyes.....goggles or face shield too
That's definitely one thing i need to get better at. Have an anxiety tick where i play with my facial hair when i get stressed, used to be nail biting but that's not an issue anymore.

Just got back from the market now & finished stocking up with around 3 weeks worth of food.
I was actually surprised too see most everyone wearing gloves & around half wearing masks.( COVID-19 is in my town)
I felt like a pariah because I wasn't wearing any PPD's (Personal Protection Devices) & had too hold back my smoking induced cough because I didn't want to be stared at, or even worse, beaten.
Welcome to the new World
Shop early in the morning Jimmy, the stores are open for seniors here an hour early, I think they have it in most places now. Don't go around supper time when people are getting off work (those that are still working) and stopping in on the way home. Personal distance and washing your hands like an obsessive compulsive, along with rediscovering your own backyard, in some detail I might add, is the order of the day (by the government, not me!) It will be a lot safer in Public a month from now than it is right now (depending on the government and people too).

Just don't get drunk and start licking strange door knobs like a Trumper! Put that smokers cough to good use, it will move you to the head of the checkout line in a hurry, as long as ya can dodge the can goods being hurled at yer head you'll be fine, bullets are hard to dodge though...

FBI says now is a great time to download its home fitness app ...

Big Brother is a SICK spotter, bro.

We all need a positive and encouraging friend in these times of social distancing. The FBI, it turns out, wants to be that friend to you.....

Listen , don’t download this fucking ridiculous attempt to calm the masses. Fuck them.

The agency perhaps most associated with lobbying against encryption and your privacy put on a bright and cheery face Monday morning, encouraging everyone stuck at home to get a little exercise with the help of the FBI's very own mobile app. That's right, the FBI wants you to download its app onto your smartphone.

"#MondayMotivation Are you looking for tips for indoor workouts?" asked the FBI. "Download the #FBI’s Physical Fitness Test app to learn proper form for exercises you can do at home like pushups and situps."

Don’t cede your location to this circus of government clowns .... everyday is getting more absurd than the next.

I'll take the Red one, that's sound's like more fun :)
You've already taken it back in 2016 and yer still tripping jimmy, Trump is leading you down that rabbit hole right now... The Blue pill (democrat) will make you wake up again back in the normal world, with only your, dead family, flashbacks, sore asshole, empty wallet and PTSD to remind you of the nightmare!

The USA has and will have 10X as many as we do coming home. We had almost a million in America and I imagine only half left.

More than a million Canadian citizens and permanent residents returned home last week
Repatriation flights headed to Peru, Morocco, Spain, Honduras, Ecuador, El Salvador and Guatemala

More than a million Canadian citizens and permanent residents returned home last week as governments around the world ramped up their warnings about the threat of COVID-19.

A spokesperson for the Canada Border Services Agency said 959,600 Canadians and 43,890 permanent residents returned to Canada between March 14 and March 20. That lines up with the point when Prime Minister Justin Trudeau began urging Canadians to avoid all international travel and Foreign Affairs Minister François-Philippe Champagne told tourists to get home as soon as possible.

Here is a breakdown of incoming travel over that period, supplied by CBSA spokesperson Ashley Lemire.
By air:
  • 529,407 Canadians
  • 23,615 Permanent residents
By land:
  • 428,724 Canadians
  • 20,243 Permanent residents
By sea:
  • 1,469 Canadians
  • 32 Permanent residents
Even more Canadians are expected to come home in the coming days as Canada arranges a handful of flights to scoop up travellers stranded abroad by travel restrictions.

Trump seems to be getting ready to ignore the advice of health professionals.



CNN)President Donald Trump signaled Monday he is aware things may get worse before they get better as the country battles the coronavirus pandemic. But nonetheless he is itching to ease federal guidelines that have shuttered businesses and kept workers at home, insisting the economy must be reopened even if some of the health professionals on his team appear to disagree.
"Our country wasn't built to be shut down. This is not a country that was built for this. It was not built to be shut down," he said during an evening briefing at the White House, even as he acknowledged Monday the effects of coronavirus are likely to worsen.
"Certainly, this is going to be bad," Trump said.
The dueling positions underscored the dynamic currently animating Trump's coronavirus task force, which is split on whether the self-isolating measures are worth the cost to the economy.


Trump admitted there were opposing views, but he insisted he would take into account the views of officials such as Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease specialist.
"If it were up to the doctors, they may say let's keep it shut down -- let's shut down the entire world," Trump said.
Halfway through the self-prescribed period of self-isolation, the economic effects are clearly weighing on the President, who had banked on a strong US economy in his reelection plans.
As the country entered another week of virtual shutdown, tough questions have been raised on how long the coronavirus mitigation measures he recommended will last and whether they are worth the economic pain.

I see Donald is touting the hydroxychloroquine "cure" on TV like a snake oil salesman, he's pushing it hard. It might explain why Fauci isn't there...
