“He [Ben Wikler] later tweeted that the Supreme Court decision would 'consign an unknown number of Wisconsinites to their deaths.’”
Ben: the Republicans killed me by making me go vote in person and catch the Covid!
WSC: Killed you?
Ben: (looking around) Well – I got better…
Yikes!
The UK is following the lead of just about every single other western nation in determining ChiCom provided medical equipment and supplies are completely and utterly defective. In this latest case, of many, its 3.5 MILLION defective ChiCom flu antibody tests.
But only 3.5 MILLION.
Well.
On top or that, it appears the word is completely out on the ChiComs covering up their incompetence, infection rates and number of deaths.
You would think that would give the pro-ChiCom narrative propagandists pause.....
Only time will tell to see if that happens.
I am not confident.
I think our flora are farther along in spring than yours. Those photos convey warmth to me.
Are we agreed that the curve is at or near its peak? Trump is masterful at dealing with the press. The group at today's briefing seemed especially inept and poorly prepared.
What do my fellow commenters think about how the resumption of business operations will proceed? I've got a number of prospective customers, and current ones, that are thinking they need to create a high quality digital interaction and buying experience for their customers. They believe, by a small and growing majority, that people have adapted to working remotely and from home and will want to continue doing so.
What say you?
its amazing how Hawaii is locked down despite only having 5 deaths! Meanwhile, Winsconsin where people are supposedly dying like flies due to the virus, and can't vote, the death toll is up to 92, with total cases of 2,500.
By comparison approximately 3,000,000 Americans die every year.
The PRess is still attacking Trump for talking about the "Z pack". I have no idea why, except they want to misinform the public and blame him if anyone dies of the side-effects.
Stupidest question at the Press Briefing:
Q: Mr. Trump, why are you stopping funding for the WHO in the middle of a pandemic?
A: We're not stopping funding - I said we're LOOKING at stopping funding.
Q; But..but..but..unintelligible.
A: Next question.
Half the reporters at the Press Briefing look like they just got out of College, and they sound like they all majored in SJW studies.
So here's this quack Dr. Zeke Emnanuel yapping about how we need to keep the lockdown for 12-18 months. .
The guy's a total hack.
First, he's an oncologist specializing in breast cancer. Doesn't have a thing to do with infectious disease.
Second, he barely practices clinical medicine. How many actual breast cancer patients has he treated who recovered? We don't know - he's been a college professor and Washington policy adviser for nearly 20 years.
Third, he is Rahm Emmanuel's brother. So, you know he's not gonna let a crisis go to political waste. He's a Democrat hack, thru and thru.
Fourth, and finally, in his article he cites no numbers, no references to the literature. Just fact-free vacuous opinions.
That's who these professional scare-mongers are. Highly educated hacks who bluff their way thru the science.
Ignore them.
I think the Dems in Wisconsin are in the process of trying to steal the WI Supreme Court election. Why is the Wisconsin Election Commission not releasing any vote totals until April 13? Obviously any of today's in-person votes can be counted today (and you saw all the stories about the long lines, right?) And any absentee ballots that were either mailed last week or turned in personally today can also be counted today. (And apparently there were massive numbers of those in places that have their s*** together.) Since any remaining absentee ballots had to be postmarked today, all (legal) votes have already been cast. Why not release the totals of votes that can be counted and note the number of absentee ballots still in the mail?
Because the delay until next week gives the Dems and their allies on the election commission time to figure out how many absentee ballots they need to "find" from Milwaukee and Madison to turn the election. The numbers from any votes that were counted today should be released today. "Democracy dies in darkness" or somesuch, right?
The Kohoutek of pandemics?
Stay six feet away from green shag carpets.
I am Laslo.
re Stupidest question at the Press Briefing:
Subtext: They'll get the money when they clean house.
Why is that we do not know how many coronavirus patients have been prescribed hydroxychloroquine and what the results have been? Why is this information secret? It’s prescriptions and results. This data is available. Why don’t we know it?
Kahoutek death toll: 0
Jnseward
Partly because we don’t know how many have covid. Absent testing, and with prophylactic prescriptions, we cannot really know.

Yah think? If the election theft is too egregious Althouse might go so far as to unfriend Ben Wikler on Facebook....nah, who am I trying to kid?
John Prine dead,
Woke up this morning, put on my slippers, went to the kitchen and died.
I like it!
We cannot possibly know how many people have been prescribed HCQ for C19, and the results because.....
...TESTING!
rcocean: "Half the reporters at the Press Briefing look like they just got out of College, and they sound like they all majored in SJW studies."
My favorite exchange with moron "reporters":
Moron "reporter": hey, I was just looking into oil again today...
Trump: Really? Whats the price of oil now?
Moron "reporter": I don't know
Trump: Next question

That’s right, Browndog. You know who else called for more testing? Dr. Mengele.

Voted at 7:45pm at Town Hall for a 1500 population. I enter and see no other voters, female staff of 5 springs into positions behind their plexi. The one wearing a mask gives me choice between gel or spray for required sanitation.
I was offered a sticker. I saw no point since there's little way to show it off.
I saw an interesting comment on Reddit: Remember when everybody complained that wrestling was fake and that it was dishonest and scandalous. Then the WWF more or less admitted it was fake and people continued to watch....Something like that seems to be going on with the media. Everyone sort of knows they're propagandists, but they continue to watch.....I tune in to the presser not for Trump's dry recital of how many masks have been produced, but rather to watch him slap the media around.....I watched the after show after Trump left the room. The air went out of the balloon. The reporters didn't ask any hostile questions to Pence. It was all drab and dull.....I don't know if the conflict between Trump and the media is a staged event, but it might just as well be.
What America Needs Next: A Biden National Unity Cabinet
Always remember what I call the Friedman Rule: do the exact opposite of whatever Tom Friedman suggests.
Why not release the totals of votes that can be counted and note the number of absentee ballots still in the mail?
The exact mechanism that Dems use to win these close elections is unethical but perhaps not illegal. Years ago, I likened it to the concept of a "titration their" used in teaching undergraduate chemistry:
An interesting old trick taught in undergraduate chemistry was called the titration thief. Now a titration is something one does to measure the titer of an unknown solution. It's usually an acid-base or some other strength-of-this vs. strength-of-that determination.
The gist of a titration is that one slowly drips a solution of a known strength into a solution of an unknown strength (but of opposite polarity) until some indicator indicates neutrality. The exact point of neutrality is called the endpoint. It used to take me quite a bit of practice to reach but not exceed that delicate endpoint without overshooting.
A titration thief was a trick whereby one removed a tiny bit of the unknown solution beforehand in case the endpoint was overshot. In the event of an overshoot, the small amount of unknown was added back in and the endpoint was then re-titrated with greater care.. Link to original
In essence, a cache of favorable votes are held back and counted only if needed.
stevew s to answer your question I'm a wholesaler in the apparel industry. All orders have dried up, be it brick and mortar stores to online retailers. It appears most of the huge upsurge Amazon is having is on items related to what people are currently buying-groceries and virus related spending. I would say the economy cannot continue like it is now past the second week of May or the end of may at the most. Even with the SBA PPP program it's 2.5 times your average monthly wages and employer provided health insurance. Don't get me wrong, that is a hell of a lot better than nothing and I am grateful if I get it but that isn't going to cover all of my running costs. And I being paranoid of maintaining working capital even with this I would help I would have to shut down by September. Most small business and that includes businesses with up to five hundred employees can't last that long. Past the end of may the unemployment levels will make the Great Depression look reasonably good. That might be the point of no return. When those businesses collapse the tidal wave will be epic. The banks will have to be bailed out to an even larger extent than in 2008. Think of the insurance companies that will get dragged down and that cascading event. Collapsed businesses don't come back from the dead like Lazarus. And the workers of those defunct businesses won't find jobs overnight and that to will have a tidal wave effect and at some point the borrowing will become so great that investors will balk at buying the debt instruments. Trump is a businessman and he gets this. So unless people are dropping like flies the economy has to be restarted no later than the end of May. So end of April or May it is.
Now on the bright side, the feeling I get from my customers is that they are desperate to reopen and they sense the public wants to get back to work and back to normal and normal living and spending. I tend to believe this simply because my order cancellations have been remarkably small considering the unprecedented economic situation. Instead they are shifting delivery dates into July and asking if i will have inventory. I take that as a sign, a good sign, as although they may be wrong, when people put their money where their mouth is, one tends to believe them or at least believe that they believe. That reminds me of a line in the movie Stalag 17, " I believe, I believe!" Maybe I'm crazy, but on that I'm rolling the dice. I just hope this doesn't go past the end of May in which case I'll crap out.
I just got off a FaceTime visit with in-laws in Hollywood. They had heard about what was going on in Wisconsin and thought it was terrible that Republicans would force people out to vote and to catch COVID. That's how it's playing to the masses.
Jeez Farmer. Even years of experience with Friedman didn’t prepare me for that.
Do I barely see the Court of High Chancery through the bleak fog descending on Wisconsin's election?
"titration thief" not "titration their." Damn autocorrect.
Friedman is the ChiCom apologist, right? And he writes for the NYT, right?
Amgen, Caterpillar, Merck -- their stocks all moved up to hit their 200-day moving averages today and reversed. The moving averages have rolled over and point lower. Technical analysis teaches that can be a dangerous place, fwiw.
I hope someone is doing research on the transmission of covid=19 at the average grocery store as everyone in "lock down" has to get food at some point. The Albertson's I attend cleans off all buggies after use and there is ample Purell available. Social distancing is practiced but few customers wear masks. That's it.
I am guessing that the risk of Corona transmission is low, probably real low, in this common scenario. If that turns out to be true, then that is a green light for all non-risk group members to go back to work. Maybe test everyone with PCR and serology to make sure that only immune and/or un-infected people go back to work.
Anyone want to lay odds on Dr. Fauci being on the DemocRAT presidential ticket?
Heard an interview of Fauci on KFI and was surprised when he said he is known for being skeptical of models. Mentioned common sense would suggest the various density and lifestyle differences from NY impact the numbers, then went on to give the credit to mitigation effort.
rightguy,
I posted something related recently:
Regarding benefit or need for masks: It just might be informative to have commie virus infection rates (and antibody test results) from non-medical public facing workers such as cashiers. Not all stores, gas stations etc have opted for plexiglass or masks. Store receipts and log-ins tell the worker, the volume of customers they dealt with..that would presumably reflect viral load, which has been tied to incidence as well as severity. Have those folks been getting sick disproportionately? The trial has essentially been done. The data is there.
So....I'm talking to an old girlfriend. Yeah...the one that said "don't ever kiss me again" on Prom night.
Anyways, she's telling me that she is using a metallic gold Sharpie pen to cover her roots. Because? the hair dresser has shut down. I know she has money. I know she has a lot of money. I'm sure that she could hire someone to come to her house. I'm investing in gold Sharpie pens!!
Did I mention that she never wanted to kiss me again?
Friedman is the ChiCom apologist, right? And he writes for the NYT, right?
Friedman is merely a megaphone for the Establishment. And they're all just fine with using Chinese labor and facilities to reduce costs. The Establishment gets richer, and the destruction is wrought in towns they don't give a shit about. So sure your prospects for building a respectable life are shattered, but we'll make it up to you by funding a local opioid clinic.
What the heck is Tom Friedman talking about? Is the man drinking early? Nobody cares about his "fantasy" unity cabinet with hard core leftists and NeverTrumper Republicans. Not.gonna.happen.
What happened to open and transparent election results in Wisconsin? Polls are closed and the results are secret?
Send in the National Guard!

On the burg's unkempt frontier where boundaries
disappear, off to itself down a gravel
road, it sits in the weeds like a toad.
The windows stay closed, plucked eyes
of a dead face and bashed
doorways gape at closets unclothed.
Within, a picture-less
nail wails from the wall.

The society we go back to will be a cousin of the society we left - a lot alike but visibly different. People have learned they can learn online which will affect schools and universities for along time to come. And the reporters have utterly disgraced themselves and seem unaware of how poorly they have done. Compare them to the people in the grocery stores and gas stations - who did the needed job and who played the fool? And China has suffered a massive loss of face. Massive. And when you think that unless China reforms there will be another virus making the rounds in a few years - but I think they will reform. They won't call it that and won't run about with their hair on fire but they will do it.

Our hostess had two choices: vote or not vote. Given the current situation she could have opted to vote by mail or in person. That she didn't want to vote in person and didn't want to vote by mail so she made her choice ( presuming she didn't vote) and did not vote. But she did have a choice.

I don't know if I agree. I think that well-executed online learning can be a wonderful experience but the ad hoc stuff that's going on now is largely crap. My fourth grade son is watching 5 minute YouTube videos and doing 10 question Google form worksheets. My college freshman has little access to campus resources like tutoring services and has class via chaotic Zoom calls. I think everyone wants to get back to learning in person.
Youtube works for something what it is reasing simple math?
Colleges taking it on the chops.

"I hope someone is doing research on the transmission of covid-19 at the average grocery store . . . ."
I keep saying: We need to look at how many grocery store clerks are getting it. Maybe compare clerks, who work with the public, to truckers or stockists, who don't?
This would immediately tell us something about how easily (or not) the Devil Bug is transmitted by face-to-face contact.
I hear the NYT reported that four grocery clerks got sick, which tells us jack squat without any other numbers (e.g., total number of clerks in NY?) to compare it to.
Tuesday's Wisconsin election was a cluster only in those cities where rabid Democrat mayors rigged it as such: Milwaukee, where Tom Barrett was a two-time failed loser to Walker in governor races; and Green Bay, where the mayor was most recently a Dem member of the state Assembly.
Green Bay, a city of about 110,000, felt Covid-19 necessitated consolidating many dozen polling places down to two (2!). And Milwaukee went from 180, I believe it was, down to 5, for a city of about 700,000.
Killed me to see national and local coverage throughout the day interviewing voters on line (all of whom could have voted long ago via absentee, which was heavily promoted) who cried about the mean old Republicans and disenfranchising minorities and killing old people whose only crime was wanting to vote. Blaming the Republicans, and their evil henchmen, the state Supreme Court.
Well, at least one of the Green Bay TV affiliates committed a flagrant act of journalism. Coverage all day had been about 3-hour waits, but for their late newscast they finally talked to Green Bay's election director, the city clerk, who to her credit revealed the truth. While it was fact that many of her "regulars," poll workers, declined to volunteer this time around because of virus fears, she said she received inquiries from plenty of other volunteers wanting to step up and fill the void. Also, the Wisconsin National Guard had volunteered extensive white-collar personpower to help with logistics and table duties.
The mayor instructed her to refuse all such help, she told the reporter.
In fairness, the mayor might have rightfully been concerned that rookie poll workers could have mucked up their smooth-running election... hence the decision to consolidate voting to two sites where lines backed up around the building and around the block.
I see Walter had a similar idea.

That's kind of a rehash of the old Good Will Hunting joke: "You wasted $150,000 on an education you coulda got for $1.50 in late fees at the public library."
The thing is, most people don't have the structure or discipline to learn on their own. That's the function of the school. To tell you when to show up for class, when to read what chapters, when the paper is due, etc.
At my alma mater/lifelong workplace, the admin has successfully bucked the demographics and increased enrollment over the last few years. This has been done mostly by the traditional underpaying of everyone except administrators, and has been SO successful that they have built new residence halls and attracted private developers for new-style student housing. The whole campus area is being physically transformed.
At least it was, and I've been thinking about the probability that we never go back to the old model completely, just when the physical institution was taking a modern shape and getting some recognition.
That's assuming we make it through May.

Why haven't we seen/heard any reports on how many patients are being treated with hydroxychloroquine and what are the outcomes? Probably because it's working. Because we all know sure as hell if it wasn't it would be all over the news.

Of course, the very fact that your business risks being crushed verges on criminality. But I am hopeful that the sanity you detect around you will prevail.
Why is it presumed that a polling place is more dangerous than a grocery store?
For some things for math and science, specially biology and chenistry its more hands on.
From BAG's link:
Scores of colleges say they're taking heavy hits as they refund money to students for housing, dining and parking after campuses closed last month.
Must be nice. My kid's college told students to get bent, initially, then relented and offered a whopping $1500 refund for housing and meal plan. She hasn't swiped her dorm room key/dining plan card since March 6, and won't, for the rest of the year, but no refund for the room she's not staying in and the meals she's not eating.
Even if campuses reopen this fall, many worry large numbers of students won't return.
In our particular situation, I fervently hope this happens. Her school lets in far too many kids (then half of the freshman class drops out, but after the first round of checks clear I guess so the university is happy) and they don't have enough housing to go around. She'll be a sophomore next year and has been on the waiting list for a dorm room since January and so far no dice.
“That's the function of the school”
That was the function of the school. Increasingly the function of the school is to hector you about white privilege and incubate resentment. If universities close their campuses for a protracted period we will indeed see a lot of people wise up.
I got a tickle yesterday from the so called journalists who asked Trump about the checkpoints going up in Texas along the Louisiana border. He said that Americans are not accustomed to internal border checkpoints and wasn't Trump concerned about this. I turned to my wife and said, he's never been to California. Immigration checkpoints, agriculture checkpoints, checkpoints at the entrance to LAX. Journalists, the know nothing.

I agree -- but. You don't need to spend $10,000 for this. College life, at least in the average or below average state college I attended, consisted of lectures, socializing, and completing writing assignments & other projects, on time. The hardest thing to duplicate is the social aspect. Someone sees you practicing ukulele during noon break and talks to you. Someone sees you at the library checking out a book on Baudelaire, and so you talk about Baudelaire. I've taken a lot of classes online & at brick & mortar schools in the last 20 years. Brick and mortar is better, but only in the socializing aspect.
If I could pay a subscription rate, say, a hundred a month, to have campus privileges w/o having to take a class or declare a major, I would do it.

A long time ago, back in the early days of my career (Unix Sys III was still new, I worked for a software development house where our resident Unix guru didn’t have his college degree. Management liked down on him because he lacked a degree, but those of us who wrote code were in awe of what he could do. To get the throughput we needed in those days when 1 MHz CPUs were still years away, we needed to make our software multithreaded, and to do that we needed to write our own priority queue and scheduler. He did it in two days. It never hiccuped once. Two days, zero bugs. But no college degree so obviously he was stupid l, or do the managers assumed.
He left to go join a modest-sized but growing software house in Seattle. Micro-something. I quit not long thereafter myself.

I cut a deal with my 20-something tenants, all 3 of whom have been furloughed and have to rely on unemployment and CARES to get through this. They're not big earners, and their income will fall quite a bit.
So I reduced their Apr/May rent to bring them up to where they were, and in return they have agreed to go to the supermarket for us. Liquor store too!
(Meanwhile, the $2400 I and my wife will get from the federales will cover our rent losses for April and May.)
Win-win, as I see it. If the kids are unlucky enough to get the disease they won't die, but as we are in the danger zone, we might.

Tonight my wife and I ordered pizza and watched Flight of the Intruder. Her first time, and probably my fourth or fifth time - not counting the times I'd catch it playing on TV and tune in for a segment or two. I really like the movie. I think the acting is great, even the bad acting, because it makes it seem a bit more real and less polished. Polish is fine for a movie like Top Gun but not this. The special effects are a mixed bag, because the anti-aircraft fire looks pretty bad and so do most of the aerial explosions, but the miniatures, models, and some of the fire effects are really top notch. I also love the bombing run on SAM City in the center of Hanoi, and the earlier Iron Hand mission that Grafton flies with Cole, Virgil Cole. The representations of the cockpit instruments of the A-6 Intruder are fantastic, with the PPI display and the ESM/RHAW gear looking so accurate, and yet so easy for a layman audience to understand what they mean and the threats they're representing - unlike many of today's movies, where the whiz-bang hologram displays are just CGI messes where you can't tell anything about what they're supposed to be showing you. Flight of the Intruder lets you in on the mission, and lets you react to the same threat the pilots are reacting to - that Iron Hand mission with the four SAMs streaking in, watching them close in over the pilot's shoulders while they frantically try to deal with the threat and evade, really is gripping.
Where I think the movie falters is the end. I haven't read the book it's based on, but I know they already made a lot of changes for budget reasons. The last mission should have been a bit longer, with some more explodeyness, and then have the (spoilers) squadron commander shot down on the return leg, in order to get Grafton and Cole back in action to rescue him. Would have been nice to see Campanelli get a few good licks in on the NVA - instead he kinda goes down like a bitch early on and just has to wait for rescue. As it is, the most thrilling part is the prior illegal bombing run on SAM City (watch that on a big screen in a dark room with good surround sound - you'll get chills). Still, Cole's final sacrifice is definitely a moving scene, especially with the action sounds washed out and replaced by a haunting score as the napalm falls.
All in all, I give it 3 stars out of 5, or 3.5 if I'm hedging. It wouldn't take much to get it to a solid 4 in my mind.
Camparelli, not Campanelli. That wasn't even autocorrect - I knew a guy named Campanelli and typing it was more natural. But Danny Glover's character is Camparelli.

Sweden did it right with no lockdown
https://twitter.com/SkepticMohamed/status/1246224428930826240
BTW, just because Sweden’s deaths are skyrocketing doesn’t mean that it won’t lead to fewer deaths in the end. That was Boris Johnson’s original take. It just indicates that lockdowns have an effect of reducing deaths in the short term and Sweden is the control.
COVID 19 is spurring a lot of people to do spring house cleaning. t
President Trump as expanded on that idea and has launched a cleaning of deep state Inspector Generals.
Atkinson is out, and it looks like the IG that was tasked with leading the committee of IG's that are monitoring the $trillion pandemic economic stimulus is out. Five or more IG's are on the chopping block.
Watch msnbc today, yesterday they spent entire segments accusing President Trump of reaping financial gains by pushing Chloroquinine. Though they never did square the accusation, with the over 30,000,000 doses donated by manufacturers. So today, the narrative will be President Trump is using the firings as cover of his wild profit motive for pushing Chloroquinine.
Without sports, President Trump has filled the need, by slap fighting the media, and it brings a smile to my face.
That CDC coronavirus image you see all over the place is is actually a painting meant to convey "an identity" "Something to grab the public’s attention", instead of an accurate representation of it.
I guess marketing rather than accuracy is to be expected from the CDC.
Actual image is boring, doesn't scare the peasants, er, grab the public's attention, like it should.
@tim: lockdowns appease the panicked too, let's the politicians say, see, we're doing something.
Imagine how Trump would have been attacked if he advocated for a Sweden style approach.

C: Neither one of them is very bright and maintain their “mojo” by refusing to concede any an all points.
Calling George Bush “Hitler” didn’t make the fear of terrorism go away either, it repackaged it and focused it on something more manageable, and this virus is 911 on steroids. Both sides are repackaging their fear and scapegoating their favorite targets on the other side.
@tim in vermont, Ritmo and ARM could be different people getting their talking points from the same source. You’re right about neither of them being very bright, but they have this delusion that their access to these talking points put them one up on people with the effrontery to think for themselves.
Just came from Sam's Club.
I'm now Anti-Mask! Anti-Mask!
Virus concentrators. People can't stop playing with them. Fiddling with them. Coughing in them. Snorting in them. Dummies thinking, "it's ok, I have a mask on", sniff-snert-ack-ack-hack, fiddle fiddle pull twist, pick up a bag of sugar... look at it... put it back.
Assholes with masks.
And - new rule, you touch it you bought it.
Stopped at the supermarket during the course of my morning walk. They have toilet paper on the shelves again! Didn't buy any a) because I wasn't going to continue my walk-- a beautiful sunny morning after a beautiful sunny afternoon yesterday-- trying to discover the best way of carrying that huge package of 24 etc rolls and then b) because I don't actually need any yet.
Am waiting for the livestream of the day's Mass (In nomine Iesu-- the introit is taken from the second chapter of St Paul's epistle to the Philippians) from St-Eugène-Ste-Cécile in Paris, and looking forward to Tenebrae later on (three options that I've settled on are Paris, Warrington in England, and Wausau in Wisconsin). I figure that if one must accept the intermediation of the Internet, one may as well experiment.
Singapore eases lockdown and cases climb.

Locked down again. This is where we are headed.
Oh yeah, and remember, the lockdowns didn’t do anything. It’s just a coincidence that shit gets real again as soon as they are lifted.
You can be against the lockdowns, you just don’t get to pretend they don’t work. Just be honest about what lifting a lockdown costs.
That second pic makes me want to come up there and do some fishing.
