Coronavirus Coronavirus: In-Iowa General Discussion (Not Limited)

[madguy30]

This is a good time to remind people that we live in a state that oriented its entire school calendar around the Iowa State Fair, if that gives you a sense of where our priorities are.

And you can bet that if something goes on that involves having to change next school year or this one that affects the State Fair, people will *****.

HyVee was out of potatoes and ramen. Low but not out on canned goods, pasta and sauce, and Jack's pizza (I still got some for myself). A few more holes than normal in the cereal and bread aisles. Just nutty.

What I wonder about is how much restocking is going to be done, and when.

No tp at the Target this morning. None at Aldi. Cleared out at Walmart but for two boxes at the bottom of a stacked pallet that were gone in 30 seconds when discovered.

The best is districts that are directly saying they aren't closing since there haven't been reported cases.

Read this twitter post that Trice posted earlier. It's from the head of Medicare under Obama. Even he says it's not a given that K-12 kids should go home.

Corndogs boost immunity?

Iowa seems to be one of the states not taking this serious yet. 16 states have completely closed schools, Apple is shutting stores world wide, and Iowa is business as usual.

I think Reynolds is in denial...

Only the jumbo ones

She’s in denial about a lot of things I’ve heard.

New York City refuses to close theirs, and they have cases all over the place.

Their reasoning being that so many kids won't get to eat if they aren't fed by the school.

So countries like US that have a lot of kids in poverty can't handle the crisis as well. We have to live or die with that hand dealt.

It's a traditional CF thing to miss corndog girl.

Someone still needs to explain the TP thing to me. Are people using more than normal because of this? Is this a gastrointestinal disease now?

Also, what is with places putting sanitizer dispensers right outside bathrooms? Wash your hands with soap!

Diarrhea is like a very very rare symptom. It's people being dumb

This is for in-Iowa news and discussion. ABSOLUTELY NO POLITICS.

[Gunnerclone]

Are you gonna make it?

 

[dosry5]

Are you gonna make it?

Make what? Is someone making sandwiches? I’ll take ham and onion. On white...
