    Agreed but what does that matter in your question? Many aren’t going to hospitals for normal ER visits due to fear of getting sick, and ERs aren’t accepting non-covid patients. People are dying at home due to non-covid illness. The ships are there to help those people, but can’t help if people are too afraid to even go.

    Did they close because it wasn’t needed anymore since area hospitals were able to manage patients? I don’t know the story...
  3. That’s good. Glad you can cover them. Oh that’s good! Glad you’ll get a nice haul

    Most are probably dying in their homes, at least in NYC. Metfan could come attest to that, he’s told us about it over in PR. it was my understanding that these hospital ships were intended for every day use, not surgeries or anything but general visits/injuries. How they are actually being utilized, I can’t say.

    Weren’t they for normal day to day hospital visits? Not for covid patients I thought

    You guys need to approach phineas a different way, it would help this thread not go places it shouldn’t be

    Trust me, metfan will take this thread completely off track if we let him.

    Until we test everyone no body can say what it is, or isn’t like. You guys gotta stop getting into the weeds over things none of us have specific answers for

    Thanks, but we aren’t going to take this thread off track and discuss NYC specifics in detail.
  13. Me too. Low lights, chill music, extra pour of whiskey.

    Thanks for sharing that tidbit. Have you seen the data yourself?

    Of course, cases have to lower. But we’ve seen dramatic increases in case numbers as backlog eases. Without knowing when people were tested vs when results came back, it’s hard to truly grasp if it’s still spreading at high rates, or if it Is flattening.

    ....again, not all 700 were tested yesterday. We have no clue how much of that is backlog. I think paying attention to hospital admissions is good, as it gives an idea of the number of people who are sick enough to have to be admitted. Maybe one day lag if it’s due to lack of updating the system, but it’s close to real-time

    I said earlier today June 1 was a good goal. The testing, ppe/supplies, tracing stuff? He has done well, I agree.

    im willing to bet they wont be going back to school, so nothing to fret over.
  20. we have some in pots, so i just keep bringing them in. i didnt even put them out today, they get enough sun near a window. poppies and daisies. kiddo cannot wait until they start sprouting so we can transplant them to other larger pots on the deck skipping a veggie garden this year, wanted to do a butterfly garden but i think i'm too late to get that started. who knows. yup, thats why i usually shoot for mothers day to get plants in the ground.

    MD is set to go back Monday April 27th. As far as I know, the superintendent hasnt made a decision yet. Hogan has said he is letting them make their recommendations and he will make the final decision based on that. Other states, like PA, made the decision without conferring with the state superintendent.
  22. i have learned the hard way, unless you can bring plants inside, dont go planting anything until mothers day
