Latest US news on a federal level is Trump is champing at the bit to lift the social distancing restrictions within two weeks.  It's going to be a disaster if he does that.  His reasoning isn't based in science.  Basically, he's upset because he thinks the virus is making him look bad due to the stock market going down.  I just hope people listen to the doctors and scientists.

Wait, what?
As in over ride states that have an order to "stay at home" (Or whatever each state calls it)? Because I didn't think there was a federal thing in place.

Is this not common sense --> the economy is going to take a hit. But if there is no precaution taken by the american public -- the economy will take a worse hit-- and hospitals will be overloaded.

Heaven help us. u_u;

He can't override the states but he can withhold funding to try and coerce states into doing what he wants. I'm not sure if governors can force local governments to end the "stay at home" orders.  I know with the sanctuary cities Trump withheld funding. the governor here in Texas forced all of the cities to comply with an order saying they could not be sanctuary cities.

It is up to the people who know better to just keep staying home. But i'm worried about what will happen when school opens. I'm sure a lot of companies also want their employees back in the office. and stores will want to re-open. people will have to start going back out. i just don't see any realistic good outcome.

I know the economy can't slow down forever but it seems like there are other ways businesses can make money. They refuse to order businesses to make ventilators, masks and other necessary hospital equipment (i don't know anything about medicine). But if Trump did order businesses to produce these products it wouldn't be an act of charity. these companies would get paid.

I imagine that countless unnecessary deaths would also be bad for the economy and the election. personally if i have to choose between my job and millions of lives i would rather lose my job. how is that even a choice? it's just so disappointing that we don't have better national leadership. It seems like some governors are doing a good job. And not making this a partisan issue either.

It didn't have to be this way. We all deserve better.
Sadly Federal rules laws trump over states laws, cities ect laws..  So President Trump can force States to compile...  States aren't own little countries as some states try act but I think President Trump should hear out each governor of states concern and high risk breakout area...

My concern mostly panic and madness of public...
I also concern lack ignorance rumors spread panic.. I already heard rumors some hospitals not Property testing or give staff proper protection.

Those aren't rumors at all. Those are facts.

There is lack of PPE nationwide, but absolutely in areas that are dealing with it more. And we need to be testing a lot more people, but as of now they can't. Unless by properly you mean they aren't swabbing people correctly? That I haven't heard.

It's not a reason to panic. People have to know these things.

Thank you  that good to know! So much information floating around to know what fact/ or media feed rumors...


Totally, I agree. I personally don't watch the news because I feel it's twisted and makes people panic. I stick the daily press conference from my state.

But in regards to PPE, one thing that is happening in some areas is elective surgeries/procedures are being canceled to save PPE, including for vets and dentists.

Also, there's straight up calls from hospitals for PPE. Even some some asking for masks to be made.

And then in regards to testing. What our country should do is test aggressively -- so we have more accurate numbers including those with mild symptoms. And mild symptoms could mean someone who has bad symptoms, but is just short of being hospitalized. This would mean our numbers for confirmed cases would be closer to accurate, and people could take it more seriously, and quarantine as need be. And take off of work for quarantine. Some places say you can take off if you get a positive test, well hardly anyone can get that, and feel forced to continue to work. 

But people just see "Oh the numbers look low, it's not a serious threat".

Also good know rough age group, locations and weather...
Area seems mostly impacted may high consternation people for square area and I know on some bactrica/ virus increase / decrease by enviromental...  Best example years wet/ muggy in my area high % rot in crops, high % worm load and parsites in animals...
It nice to know if any other factors that help educate people protect themselves love ones extra...
One close friends she very scared due she immunity issues and respiratory.. She proun to pneumonia.. Last spell she had last year almost killed her....  I simple talk to on phone/ online make sure she ok...
Luckily she live out country area like myself not over crowding...
Nightmare in big cities with sooo many people and over crowding..  I think maybe why hit China so hard even Italy ..

Any pony from Europe? No? Then just me I guess.
Anyway the fresh numbers from Hungary:
-Infected: 167
-Healed: 16
- Deaths: 7
-Quarantine: 101
-Tests: 5 515

I'm in self-quarantine since last Thursday (19th March) because my dad got into hospital with pneumonia the day before (18th March) luckily he is much better since than and his tests for Covid19 were negative too. :frolic: :happy:
That's a huge relief but I still have to say at home for 2 weeks as my boss asked because I work in a disability home run by the local Maltaster International.

I have two fears of the recent situation:

1.) There are still lots of elder people are on the street since there is no central lockdown. I think the problem is that the elders don't trust stranger helpers because there were many theft cases in the news not long ago.

2.) I don't want to go deep into politics but our prime minister tries to use out the situation for his own advantage. Do I have to say more?  :yikes:



I seeing on facebook that USA DOJ trying over ride our constitution rights

1. Where do you live?

Northern Maine USA
2. What is the current climate like where you're at?
Snow ground, lakes still some ice.. mostly 20s - high 30s temp. Later this weeks climb 40s.
3. Are news reports coming from your area accurate or no? What is going on?
Reports lower part state possible positive tested.. not sure of the number I send my husband tend not follow news..  I learn last weekend by friend lower state ask if our community gone mad over toilet paper ect...
Drive thru and take only restaurants/ banks all public rest stop or bathrooms closed, only essential stores open.. Stores put limited per customers a day items, give Special hrs SRs and people health issues that prone to virus...
4. What are your questions and concerns? 
My concern mostly panic and madness of public...
I also concern lack ignorance rumors spread panic.. I already heard rumors some hospitals not Property testing or give staff proper protection.
5. What has your government / administration done to address this (please try to keep this as politics free as possible, it is fine to state whether you agree/disagree with their actions etc) and, in your opinion, how is it working? Ex: Shelter in place orders, curfews, closures
State close public school, ( send homework kids/ lunches) public bathrooms all close, drive thru take out only, only essential stores open, SR homes lockdowns, stores put limits need products... Are those excepted... Farmers and plants process essentials... open fish season early...
My thoughts
My understanding that much worst virus like common flu / pneumonia which done worst damage to society but never gone society panic. I live and farm bred. I see alot sickness just alone thru from different species and plants.. Life finds a way to keep population/ over crowding and weak in check for best of life! So I am baffled by madness when only ones who infected need protection those immune, respiratory issues... I recall from other generations stories when spread chicken pox they actual have party to build immunity and to supervise/ control virus as same effected as vaccines. 
I feel this need as wake up call society to remember what goes in daily life from farmer grow food/ truckers transporting, butcher process ect that feeds society and maintain structure of society... if this doesn't happen then society would hunt and grow they own as individuals..
Society need learn to work togather and stop panicking being greedy to survive as human race...
6. Is your job affected, if so, how?
Layoff my part time job but no vacation break from care, milking ect livestock and soon planting season...
Husband work McCains they still move because they food productor are excepted..
7. How are you and your family doing??
My Aunt stuck right Florida... ( she not phase by it because she loving sun and is nurse).. My husband family are keep to themselves( never close family).. I have few SR friends & friends which I will delivery them fresh products to insure they feed..

I been collected long time and I see ponies change value due demand, condition and numbers on market.  Its like when Auction or yard sale depends crowd and what customers willing $... I see times like Cotton Candy sell extreme high due bid wars...
I don't think retro change much on market MLPs it may drive original up for period times because collectors get "pony fever" or someone new collecting gone "Pony wild"
