We all have varying opinions about the impact of this, the numbers, etc. We will all never agree with each other. But we can all keep it civil.

Thanks!

Not sure what places you are referring to but that’s not the case anywhere around here. No RTs in the OR.

That’s part of why they have gotten rid of elective surgeries. Anesthesia staff are doing next to nothing right now at KU Med and probably other places as well. So much so they are keeping people home in reserve, still paying them, and reducing weekend staff. Surgeons are moving some of these cases to outpatient surgery centers since hospitals aren’t taking them.

It's a great thread, so if you want to stick around, please play by the rules.
Perhaps an UV light to kill the “germs”..

Wash my hands in the basement before going upstairs to the family. I'm sure thats not unique. We are around infected people all day. You have to be careful not to bring it home to your family. I'm sure the DIL is doing something similar.
stay away from the grinders, torches and power tools
unless you like that sort of thing.

Stop me if you fucking heard this one, but the Chinese government is probably lying.

Yahoo's interpolation of the above link with other information.

Marshal law would have to be in affect to enforce this and I don’t see it..

He said this, too:

you're still having dinners and parties in the hotels

Today is not off from yesterday. 4.5k cases confirmed yesterday. Today so far about 2200 so far.

I've been trying to prepare for two surgeries since before this all happened. Now...I'm going to do my best to put those off as long as I can.
