I’d like to know how much toilet paper you’ll take on trade for 500 rounds.

@buffhunter didn’t your dad have archery tag in one of those units recently?

I’m no expert, but I’ll tell you some of what we’ve been hearing at work. And I agree the panic is out of control, especially the run on toilet paper. the difference from common flu and other more severe flu is it spreads differently (some say more easily but that’s not clear that I’ve seen) and can be more severe symptoms requiring hospitalization. It can end up as a severe pneumonia resulting in hospitalization and sometimes requiring intubation. It’s probably a given that it’s going to be widespread over time but slowing the progression and the “spike” of how many how fast is important to prevent overwhelming hospital capacity. A good description of this in a couple of articles about flattening the curve. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/11/science/coronavirus-curve-mitigation-infection.html so all the precautions with canceling events and minimizing travel helps slow the spread and flatten the curve...prolonging things but preventing the system capacity from being overwhelmed. Hope that makes sense and again I’m no expert. If the system gets overwhelmed I’m sure I’ll get pulled off the bench to go help operate portable hospitals somewhere like I have after hurricanes...hopefully before hunting season. LoL

Maybe a typical media spin of wording, but also you can have the virus but no symptoms...I think that’s where they’re differentiating being “sick” with symptoms as disease vs virus. Technically you can argue whether and infection is a disease and muddy the water even more.

Save some lives too. I know folks who paid part of their way through college doing that...

I work with our medical record software at the enterprise level for our organization and not at individual facility level, so I haven’t seen a lot of what’s going on at the facility level. All of our facilities are required to have emergency/disaster plans and with the increasing use of EMR software and data storage IT and other support roles are definitely included. Everyone at the facilities usually go through various trainings as well. When stuff hits the fan they do get easily forgotten though until the need arises.

I hope you’re young enough to buy low and ride it out...

Work is cancelling non-essential travel and conferences, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. I work in healthcare IT so we’ve got extra work to do for integration of screenings, reporting, surveillance, etc into our systems. I heard they may cancel the elk draw results and issue tags to everyone who didn’t draw...

I think it looks cool and would make a cool camp kitchen. Let us know how it turns out.
-
@gmcbob posted one today too...looks like a good deal.
-
Yeah I was only half serious...but no matter what the turds are going to game any system that gets put in place.
-
And get put on a 3-year wait to draw again while we’re at it... 😁

If you said “the only fair system is...” that implies all other systems are not fair. -
