I dedicate this post to those who are risking their lives to save ours.

THANK YOU for posting this!

Thank you! Daily Sun should post this as headline. Maybe it might finally sink in.

Why We Are Not Doing Enough To Stop the Pandemic (in Simple Math)

staying home is a lot easier than staying underwater from 74-86 days--its a piece of cake

Wow! your lungs are good, I can barely hold my breath for 24-36 seconds these days!:icon_wink:

Should send this to The Villages management!!!!!!

As an at risk person, we have been isolating for over a week. I don't think people understand that you can still be a carrier, without having symptoms. The noncompliance here frighten me, and my family.

People MUST be aware. We have been informed time and time again by the media that the virus can be shed by someone who is not symptomatic. What is not to understand? That is why social distancing is imperative.

A possible consequence of deciding to not suffer from being confined to one's home is to suffer from being confined to an ICU.

It's annoying that, should isolation and other preventive measures work to flatten the curve, some people will take that as proof that the whole pandemic was just overblown nonsense.

Be assured that your prediction will be brought to fruition, no matter the curve,etc.

In the last weeks the desire to disprove this virus has taken great turns, even as we learn more. This is not from a desire or hope based on empathy, I fear.

The videos that staff makes are better. It’s common practice during high stress times, living at work, to lighten the mood with a five minute skit.

I have seen this a lot on Facebook and have shared it as much as possible. Thanks!

I have met many nurses here in the Villages and hope they are safe and not sick.

We are not just staying home. We are doing what we usually do, but we are avoiding even semi-close contact with other people.

We walked around Hogeye Marsh today and saw a lot of people out enjoying themselves. The singer at Edna's was very good.

YEP...:agree:

So good to see the A&E folk .... no, I am grafeul for them, the REAL ones, this A&E means those with Attitude and Entitlement.. who are NOT staying home.

Yes that’s the key that we could all be carriers and have no symptoms. If I have to go out shopping for supplies I wear a buff around my face. You can’t get access to a mask because of supplies, but everyone can put something over their mouth and nose to prevent them from spreading the virus. I’ve had a couple people comment that the buff will not protect me from getting the virus. I always reply it’s not for me it’s for you. everyone should assume that they already have the virus even though they show no symptoms. that way we can help protect our family and friends from ourselves

Heartbreaking!
 

Don’t let this happen to us!

Outdoor bar business
 

We have been cooped up for days so decided to take a ride in our car to see some areas we haven't visited in awhile. As we drove through Brownwood at 3:30 pm yesterday we immediately noticed the outdoor bar at City Fire was full and it appears social distancing was absent there and everyone appeared to be having a good time, both seated and standing directly behind those seated. These are the same people who could be carriers who will frequent the grocery stores when we dash through to get needed weekly supplies. Very disturbing. Maybe that is considered curbside service?

People should listen to this epidemiologist talk about what we need to do. https://tinyurl.com/rf42oly
Part of what she said: “It’s really hard to feel like you’re saving the world when you’re watching Netflix from your couch. But if we do this right, nothing happens,” Landon said. “A successful shelter-in-place means you’re going to feel like it was all for nothing, and you’d be right: Because nothing means that nothing happened to your family. And that’s what we’re going for here.”

Get outside. Take walks in the neighborhood. Wave to neighbors. Breath fresh air. Enjoy the sun. Stay healthy.

We’re staying away from crowds but I haven’t read anything that indicates fresh air is a no-no right now.

Here's an ER Doc chat group with reports of what it is like for our medical hero's working the front line.

I'''m Ali Raja, MD and Shuhan He, MD emergency physicians from Mass General Hospital/Harvard Medical School. We'''re back to report from the front lines of COVID-19. Let'''s talk PPE, new updates & science, testing, quarantine and more. AMA : Coronavirus

Exemplary!

Medical experts have said that going outside for sun and exercise actually is healthy and improves immunity as long as people stay at least 2 meters apart.

If you are self isolating you are a soldier,if you are not you are the enemy

The virus is spread by someone coughing or sneezing via droplets that are spewed from their nose or mouth. Normal breathing does not enable the virus to shed. Anyone who is coughing or sneezing should not go out in public places.

I was next in line for the register at Target two days ago. The older woman who was working the register suddenly started to cough up a storm and she was coughing into the back of her blue gloved hand. Luckily I had stayed back at least six feet when the person before me was being rung up. I backed up with my cart and told her that I was sorry but I was going to another register. As I was making a B Line away from this woman, she rolled her eyes at me and stated she just has allergies. She acted as though I was the bad guy.

Not The Villages management, the State of Florida management!! But hey, now they’ll have a few more bucks from the spring breakers and all the idiots that’s packed City Fire for the past 2 weeks to use, for the @/I& is about to hit the fan! Nice job governor!!

If you have symptoms you are to contact your doctor but if It is the weekend your doctors office is closed. We are told
not to go ER, call your doctor to get a form signed and directions to the testing areas. One cannot get tested without signed form.
What to do???????????/

We are hunkering down --we watched "I Am Legend" yesterday, maybe "Contagion" today. Looking forward to Tom Cruise in "War of the Worlds"

I just saw this posted on Facebook.

I can't swear to this book's veracity, but apparently something happened...to save the village of Shishmaref.

It's also well documented, that ALL Native American's were hit much harder by this pandemic...than the general European population here in the United States. :(
