  1. I completely forgot about The Villages. Those people are big time socializers. If it gets there, the whole of NC Florida is in trouble hospital wise. I hope they've closed their bars down at least cuz those olds do not give a fuck.
  2. This is straight up depressing.
  3. I only caught a few minutes when they were really doubling down on how we don't need tests. That was enough.
  4. This is a good idea. It protects their employees from illness and will help control stock.
  5. It looks like she's selling some mlm product too. What a gem.
  6. I used to work on the west side of Shands (dentistry). This thing could be all over the hospital and that is a scary thought.
  7. I just got a PSA on my phone telling us to shelter in place. We did have some small aftershocks. At least I'm not at work during this mess.
  8. Seems coercive. I'm really curious if they keep you in the hospital for days or how they justify that compensation.
  9. I don't think there were any injuries but some lost their power. I'd say it was moderate shaking, but I've never felt one before this.
  10. So should I go to Costco now or just forget the whole damn thing?
  11. I'm due in June. I have thought about getting a midwife jic, but I'll be chatting with my MFM when I go back in a couple of weeks. I'm mainly concerned about allocation of resources and that they haven't become so desperate that they're stealing doctors from other departments. I'm less concerned they would do this with an MFM than an ob but it's better to have the conversation now. I suggest everyone who is expecting address this with their ob at least for peace of mind.
  12. Everytime I see this thread title now, I'm going to think the coronovirus causes delirium tremens.
  13. I think most halfway decent unis will move what they can to online platforms in the next week. My department is freaking out over this. We now have to report personal travel so they can decide if we go into quarantine upon return. They want all events canceled and as much work from home as possible.
  14. My employer is trying to come up with a plan of action for continuing teaching and research efforts if we need to stay home. This is going to mess up research timelines if you're relying on human data; I really don't see how it's going to work out well.
  15. We're being told to avoid non essential domestic travel. Pac12 is also evaluating what they're going to do with student athlete travel so we might except some upheaval in march madness.
  16. So how long were these Houstonians roaming free after returning from Egypt? There's so many new cases it's hard to keep up.
  17. Delta won't budge. Shouldn't stop you from trying but they will not want to cancel.
  18. How many cases so far in the Houston area? Are they fucked or all of them travel related?
  19. They're all repatriated cruise folks though right? There's gotta be some out in the wild, besides the one who went to the mall.
  20. I can't believe a state as populous as Texas is sitting at zero right now.
  21. I've been working with a physician who had several US conferences coming up that have been canceled. Husband was supposed to attend a conference in LA in a couple weeks which was also canceled. Anyone traveling soon will probably have the luxury of a pretty empty plane.
  22. They have one potential person who works at Rice. They're sending the swabs to Houston health department and being shipped to the CDC. So, they're not really handling it, at least in Harris county. How many cases in Chicago now? 3,4? This may be out of control there as well.
  23. What will this do to the obese population? I have been wondering for weeks if my lazy af co-worker is doomed.
