I have never listened to the Pardon My Take podcast as I have so many I listen to already but they got Dr. Fauci on there and it was awesome. They are just funny sports dudes and asked questions like regular guys would and it was super informative. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants to get a better understanding of it all but in a less serious and more casual way.

I can say I have never listened to a Podcast. I have watched a couple of Joe Rogan Experiments on YouTube.

:lol:

Unfortunately, I agree.
Bunch of idiots nick.
So many think it is a joke and want to go on per usual.

We, unfortunately are in this for the long haul because of it, unless the president steps in and closes all non-essential businesses.
They are saying the peak will hopefully be towards the end of May now. So we have 3 months left of quarantine at a minimum if people start to take it seriously.

It's going to keep going for the Long haul until there is some relief for mortgage, rent, loans, utilities, school loans, etc. People need to work to pay their bills and buy food. When they figure this out people may take it more serious, until then life continues on as normal because people have no choice but to work and be around a bunch of other people.

I don't mind people going to work, I am talking about the idiots that still want to hang out at restaurants or bars etc.

the problem is... nothing were gonna do is gonna work anyways. the dude from the CDC said from the start its airborne and we have wind.. So while "social distancing" works.. if you have any wind in your area and you simply breathe (dont have to cough), it'll spread the virus.

Not trying to be a smartass. But this virus also spreads at work, it doesn't just spread at bars etc. If they are serious about stopping it they need to have people stay home for 2 weeks and figure out how to forgive bills.

And like Nick says, it's airborne and in small enough droplets it can be suspended in air for a long time.

And that is what they are doing.
Our governor just announced all non-essential business are to close by 11:59 PM Monday night.
And for the past week and a half they have told anyone that can work from home, please do.

That doesn't solve anything or address what I pointed out. California is doing this but they aren't enforcing it with police. So how serious is it? Will Ohio enforce it with police? Will Ohio have a fund to help people pay bills? Until bills are being forgiven people will not abide by this

I pre-ordered Final Fantasy VII Remake and am waiting patiently for April 10th. Square Enix would really benefit releasing early.

Denver was in a panic yesterday. At first Mayor Hancock said dispenseries and liquor stores would be closed starting today. So, most of Denver promptly drove to every liquor store or dispensary. An hour later it was declared liquor stores and dispenseries would be essential as long as businesses practiced extreme physical distancing.
