If some want to disagree, what's the big deal. I find it informative to see differences of opinion. I think it broadens my perspective on this topic. Just digesting groupthink all the time isn't really interesting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL please learn to not take your “job” here so seriously. The only person who seems to take their “job” seriously is you. You fuucking revel in what you do and how you post. Look at how much of a weekend you spent arguing. Seems like the mods here don’t take the job seriously as there is a life we all have beyond an off season off topic weather board 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have been hoping to hear this. Good news. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonderdog Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 Can anyone direct me to a website that shows hospitalizations in VA on a daily basis.

mappy Posted May 4, 2020 Author Share Posted May 4, 2020 True to his word, Hogan opened up a testing site at Perdue Stadium for poultry workers (and I assume family) 641 were tested Friday, no one was turned away. The site was opened Saturday as well. http://www.wboc.com/story/42080951/wicomico-health-leaders-host-covid19-drivethru-testing-for-critical-employees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hogan's team responded by saying most Marylanders don't even know who Cox is I seem to recall Cox is the tea-party type who ran against Jamie Raskin for the House seat in 2016 (8th Cong. district, to fill VanHollen's seat when he moved into the Senate). Raskin won in a landslide, not surprisingly.

Has this 14-day decline started? Are we 3 days into the decline? Hard to say. I don't think anyone from Hogan's administration has said the clock started. We had 3-days in a row of no new hospitalizations, but then 14 new were added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maestrobjwa Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 Speaking of protesting...here's what bothers me about what we saw in Michigan the other day: While it's perfectly fine to protest inside the capitol building...should folks really be allowed to bring guns in there like that? I don't get that...(one senator felt the need to wear a bulletproof vest) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
