Rooster_Ties Posted April 24, 2020 Report Share Posted April 24, 2020 But what happens if it suddenly becomes partisan to suggest that you shouldn’t drink bleach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted April 24, 2020 Report Share Posted April 24, 2020 lol As far as the VV, I can't imagine concerts being held in NYC until 2021. I'd planned an event this fall but am supremely doubtful that it will be something I can pull off. Gatherings will have to be <50 and with adequate room for social distancing at the bare minimum, and that just isn't feasible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjazzg Posted April 24, 2020 Report Share Posted April 24, 2020 (edited) I'm so reassured that it's "medical doctors" that are going to be used.

I wish we protected our essential workers. I made that obvious call early in March. Working conditions at meat/poultry plants have been frequently chronicled over the years in all forms of media.

JSngry Posted April 25, 2020 Report Share Posted April 25, 2020 We can live just fine without eating processed meat. It's at best a convenience and an economic behemoth, not a necessity for survival. Not even slightly. Many people already do, although some of us (blush....) are REALLY out of practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clifford_thornton Posted April 26, 2020 Report Share Posted April 26, 2020 Was out for a run yesterday, sticking to side streets, and as I ran past a park it was plainly obvious that social distancing, masks, etc. were viewed as quite optional.
