Ma joins the shut down
MA Governor Charlie Baker announced this morning that all businesses in the state that are engaged in non-essential activities are to close tomorrow (Tues) at noon and to remain closed until April 7th at which time the situation will be re-evaluated. Baker had previously been determined not to issue this order but finally gave in due to the continued, exponential infection rate. MA currently has 646 confirmed cases with 5 deaths. Up to a week ago, the area we live in (Plymouth County) had *no* reported cases. Then we got one. Today it's up to 25. -- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. https://www.avg.com |

Supposedly, there are about 250 cases reported so far in Maryland, including a few down here in Calvert County. But there's no real news on the general availability of test kits or tests or where you might tested. How many have the virus who haven't been tested? |

If it can reach into Calvert county, it can be in any back woods remote location. I did some checking and short busses are the only means of public transportation in Calvert county. You can choose between th pink route or the blue route. How cute. -- .. ----Android NewsGroup Reader---- http://usenet.sinaapp.com/ |

The test is really just gee whiz info anyway for most people. No matter how it comes out, you are still supposed to isolate. It is also just a snapshot in time. You could get infected on your way home from taking the test. All the test does is lower the death rate per infected person since those with mild or no symptoms will get rolled up in the statistic. It is still just gee whiz info. If you die, it is not important whether you are in the 5 percentile or the 0.001 percentile. |
