this is unfortunately gonna keep happening, even to salary workers the longer people keep shutdowns and quarantines going. businesses cant go back to normal, owners looking to "trim the fat" anyway they can just to keep from going bankrupt. the 15day thing was fine but now it's taking care of those at risk and letting the rest of us move on. we cant stay in suspended animation while this virus "runs its course"
15 days ends Monday. Everybody could responsibly go back to work with a supply of as little as 9 pills of HCQ, if we also knew enough z pack was available. I have no idea what our supply of z pack is. If we gave 0 HCQ to anyone in flyover country where there's 0 confirmed positive cases we might get by with as little as 2 billion pills of HCQ. We don't have nearly that many. We've had millions donated to the US, and domestic production has restarted in WV with product scheduled to ship by late April.
NY has most of our current supply and is hoarding it. They're prohibited from giving it to infected people unless they're at risk of death and also in the half of the clinical study not being given a placebo. Their number of infected vs dead reflects this strategy. They're down below 1% dead now, but still have nearly half the cases in the whole Country.
Sealing the State lines is the only responsible course of action, and that's meaningless unless you include NJ and CT. Maybe these 3 States can minimize the spread into their rural areas, it's certainly worth trying.
I lost my job Friday. I need this plan.

Fully agreed, im in IT at one of the labs administering the test but I wouldn't be shocked if I'm laid off if this goes beyond April
Harvard and MIT say it will only take 2 years
I wonder how many hundreds of billions will be giving to Africa over the course of two years
We just handed them 11 billion dollars
And 350 million to illegal aliens
