Other companies are being less generous. Reading that MGM mirage isnt letting people know much information.

It's good to support companies that treat their employees well.

But apparently they all seem to be able to make money and at least withstand something like this. I know another casino that didn't fair so well and owner had to file bankruptcy. That guy made out pretty well though. I guess he is pretty popular with about 60 million voters. Maybe only 50 million now though if you ask him he will tell you it's actually much higher than that.

Ah, yes, President Trump.
 


Whats your guess on the infection rate? Do you think its over/under 5% of the population right now?

It's spring, everyone has hay fever. We're not shutting down the world over hay fever. More people have died eating peanut butter in the last 20 years then people have died from Chinese hay fever virus.

Due to how rapidly this virus spread to all corners of the world. I believe the infection rate is over 5%.

I also believe many people are infected without showing obvious symptoms, or feeling ill. Therefore they are not aware they are spreading the virus.

We may never know how many people will be infected, who they are, and the true mortality rate. All we will know is how many tested positive, and how many of those that tested positive that will die from this this virus.

Unless a test is develop that can determine if someone has, and, has ever had the virus in the past. And test everyone. We are just guesstimating.
 
Idaho is unconcerned with virus or economic collapse. They took time instead to pass two anti-transgender bills. The bills will probably not stand up to legal challenge, costing the state hundreds of thousands of dollars in court battles. Priorities.

I live in Idaho. Idaho has been way ahead of most states on the virus topic. So I call BS.

One of the bills stops boys from unfairly competing in girls sports. It is my understanding that girls already are required to be gender tested before competing. So this bill may not be necessary.

Not sure on the second bill you mention. I would need to research it.

Idaho is one of seven states that has not taken official action on Corona virus.

Clearly gender discrimination to make only girls have genitals and/ or chromosomes tested. Bill wrongly defines trans girls as boys. Other bill prohibits people from referring to themselves as other than birth assigned gender.
 
My wife works in a local clinic. She came home today and said its a complete shit show. They weren't even able to do their first test until last Monday. They are still developing procedures. Her administrators don't understand what is even involved in a swab test or who can actually do them. High level administration are all working from home and treating this like a vacation. The clinic is overly concerned with tracking contact rather than assuming everyone has been exposed, thus wasting resources on paperwork. The local hospital is clueless also and asking them for procedure directions.

BULL SHIT!

6 days ago, March 13, the Idaho gov made an emergency declaration. It released funds to be used on many levels, especially the medical field working on the virus. This happened BEFORE we had our first case.

Idaho has one of the best monitoring and info reporting systems in the country. Every effort is being made to contain the virus. Maybe that is why we only have 11 cases, while being next to the state with the most cases.
