Maybe bc it is a training base??


Training Air Force wide is supposed to be suspended as of yesterday. Who knows though. Someone may have needed flight time to stay qualified or something.

I thought I was.

All joking aside, what I do is directly related to this current situation we find ourselves in. I train people how to set up deployed medical networks for contingency and humanitarian hospitals.

For a time I worked in a 3 letter agency and made a lot of friends in and around the different agencies. A good friend of mine now is in a supervisor position at the CDC and over a month ago told me that people should really lighten the large groups just To reduce contact infections. Here we are, hoarding TP, getting in fist fights over TP, and my favorite getting arrested for refusing to give up said hoarded TP.

I think the plan is to do this until April 6 and they will reevaluate then.

According to the live map from Johns Hopkins: Alabama, Idaho, West Virginia and Maine are the only four states left with no confirmed cases.



From the 12th according the map but yet 1st case in the state was just released which have to put it back to around the 1st of the month.

his is my issue with all this. Lack of communication ad part of the panic that is being caused. One site 5 days ago says no cases but yet a hospital has already quarantine and been treating someone for almost 2 weeks. This has been like this in multiple states not letting people know.

Also makes people think it's not as widespread as it actually is, giving them a false sense of security, allowing them to not follow the CDC/health experts' recommendations.

Not to mention 5 days ago no cases and now 39 in 5 days. Like all of sudden it happened but yet if spread out over 17 days might seem not as bad.
