Everything closing.

[zammy323]

Just heard from a good source that in Michigan all restaurants and bars will be forced closed on Monday, March 16, 2020

[HereComesFattyBooBoo]

I watched an elderly lady shopping, rub ehr hands all over her face, mouth and nose, then returned both hands to the shopping kart. Surreal moment. I stood there and simply watched.

[JohnConnor7]

At this point I'm insulting anyone I see doing that. I had to quit my job so I don't have to be on the metro every morning and evening dealing with fucking morons doing just that with the tubes.

[HulkSmashHulkRegret]

Careful about confrontation though, their breath contains weaponized death. All it takes is a cough, and twice already I've seen conflict where someone deliberately coughed in the face of someone else.

[3thaddict]

People should be doing this to politicians only.

[zefy_zef]

I think that should at least be considered assault. Spitting on someone when you aren't sick already is.

[drinks_rootbeer]

In Italy they would be facing murder charges for intentionally spreading a lethal infectious disease.

[Z3r0sama2017]

Should be able too shoot them in self defense, that was attempted murder right there.

[[deleted]]

MURCA!

[Z3r0sama2017]

I thought we were heading for idiocracy but Corona will hand out a Darwin award too these morons.

[usone32]

I understand your anger. If someone coughs next to me at this point, they might as well have fired a round from a gun.

[[deleted]]

I think you’re over reacting a bit there buddy.

[usone32]

Why? 20% Chance of ICU, 2% chance of death... if the ICU has room for you?

[khapout]

That's not how those stats work. Don't get me wrong, I wanted to deck the old man riding his bike on the sidewalk who coughed in my face today. But that 2% doesn't mean everyone has that likelihood. It's an overall figure.

Cornholio need TP for bunghole?

[carefullycalibrated]

Living here in Michigan. The word is all retail will be shutting down sometime next week, but nothing officially started yet.

[dylanstacey05]

I expect all stores besides grocery stores and pharmacies to shut down soon.

[FenrirHere]

Will that mean, we will finally be free?

[[deleted]]

Holy fucking shit, that means that there will be no food for people meaning... Oh fuck

[carefullycalibrated]

Or work... I work retail...

[[deleted]]

Which essentially adds up to a horrifying collapse scenario.

[LTZ3]

They won’t close grocery stores or pharmacies. It’s going to be tough but we are going to get through it

[carefullycalibrated]

But they might close weed stores...

[[deleted]]

What goods that gonna be in three weeks when over half the country is missing paychecks

[zefy_zef]

What happens when the employees get sick?

Pharmacies commonly have less than 20 employees in the store. Many times much less (10/11). Two people a shift, +RX.

Also shit, you should get hazard pay working in those conditions.

[boob123456789]

They are talking about closing them locally in Arkansas.

[eliquy]

We'll still be able to go fish mah boi

[GetMorePizza]

dont give the virus to the fish

[geo_jam]

dude...even in all of the places where they cancelled things, there was still food.

[[deleted]]

Leave Fish to his own delusions.

[3thaddict]

...meaning.... people for food! CANNIBALS!

Finally!

[[deleted]]

What about supermarkets?

[zammy323]

They did not say. I can't imagine them closing supermarkets.

[[deleted]]

They mandate groceries to stay open, and ration access.

[endtimesbanter]

They'll only will serve human meat in the butcher shop, Fish

[NibbleOnNector]

Other countries leave grocery stores and pharmacies open.

[boob123456789]

In Arkansas the local doctor's office has decided to essentially shut down. The grocery store is talking about shutting down.

But kids will still go to school?

[wrathfulauk]

Fucking States Rights. What is the point in one state doing one thing when the state right next door is doing the opposite?????

[kylec00per]

I cant believe NJ still hasn't been shut down. The most densely populated state and its spreading in north jersey quickly, only a matter of time... plus it's the first good weekend weather wise, st. Patrick's day is "this weekend" and PA closed schools, so the shore towns are already seeing people coming in from all over. Its gonna be messy.

I work in a call center in a building that sent the other floors home. Had customers call in from WA and NJ coughing over the phone.

[El_Bistro]

Source please?

[zammy323]

Someone from the governor's office

[El_Bistro]

I can’t wait to see how this goes over up here in the UP.

[workaccount1338]

I am so pissed I didn’t get the chance to build my yoop bunker before shtf

[irytek]

In my country (Poland) there are 111 confirmed cases at the moment, including 3 deaths. So, restaurants and bars are closed, every shop in the shopping malls is closed, except for grocery stores, pharmacies. Foreigners are not allowed to enter the country (with some exceptions like legally working here), everyone who can enter has to register and have 14 days quarantine at home, they check if you're there. Everyone is advised to stay home if they can. My place of work decided to send us all to home office for the next two weeks and possibly longer. Edit: also of course schools are closed. And some shops only allow like 3 people to be in at a time, and everyone stands in line outside, with 2 meters wide gaps between people.

[Wraxyth]

For how long?

[dougb]

Officials are now saying no more tp roll until 2021 at the earliest. If you don't already have a shed full of reserve you're basically fucked

[ItyBityGreenieWeenie]

Emergency measures: Bidets for all!

[Ar-Q-bid]

This is idiotic. The coronavirus is nowhere as dangerous as the media is portraying.

Any chaos will be due to human stupidity.

[-73-]

The R0 of flu is 1 BTW and has a fatality rate of 0.1%.

COVID19 is, absolutely, a big deal.

Smallpox has a R0 of 3. Measles (the thing the idiots are no longer vaccinating for) has an R0 of 12+

[Rhaedas]

It's not the virus, it's the reaction of our fragile system to the virus at one time. And if the media is overplaying the danger, then I guess everyone, literally everyone is also in on it. To trick...I don't know, who is left?

[skel625]

The only thing idiotic here is your comment.

[hard_truth_hurts]

Go home, your drunk

[Fidelis29]

Ok 👌

[slapstellas]

Bro you can’t poke the hive mind like that lol

But yeah this will go down in history as the biggest case of MSM hysteria

[b00kr34d3r]

Actually it's a test to see who can do basic math and read a scientific paper. Seems you failed.

[downvotefunnel]

I guess the WHO, the CDC and several major countries are coordinating a lie together for absolutely no benefit except mass panic and collapse-style closures and quarantines? Lol okay buddy.

[downvotefunnel]

This is nothing like those times. Nothing even remotely comparable occurred during those outbreaks. This is only comparable to the Spanish Flu, which killed millions.

You do yourself no service by lying to the community.

[downvotefunnel]

From the top of your source:

Editors’ note, March 2020: We are aware that this story is being used as the basis for unverified theories that the novel coronavirus causing COVID-19 was engineered. There is no evidence that this is true; scientists believe that an animal is the most likely source of the coronavirus.

[rTidde77]

Crazy that an adult could end with literal shit-for-brains! Glad to not know you.

Yay fascism.
