Someone I know in the legislature said to pay attention today bc she has an important announcement. I’m skeptical as well.
"So today, I am announcing a Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhut the **** up to all my Haters Order"
Blood centers are still open. Like @NorthCyd said, you need to set an appointment online and they have done away with walk ins.
Source: gave blood on Wednesday
I give plasma twice a week by appointment. I didn't know if an SIP would change blood and plasma.
Shouldn't. My understanding is blood donation is still considered essential for the healthcare system. They’ve had to cancel their drives, to the point where the surgeon general has asked people to donate.
I don’t think she actually understands what people are calling for. I think that she thinks what people are calling for is an order where you can’t actually leave your house. I’m hopeful she just does what you are calling for and leaves it at that. If she doesn’t then I think we have more serious problems. I’m introverted so I don’t leave my house that much anyway but actually restricting me to that would not be good for my mental health. I’ve already had panic attacks fearing that. Maybe it is an irrational fear but it is absolutely terrifying to me. I can probably make do with it for a week or two but past that I wouldn't make it under that type of restriction.
I’ve already discussed the possibility of moving back home but my parents are sleeping in separate rooms already to minimize their contact and they’ve taken over my old room.
Fun fact: These press conferences take place at Joint Force Headquarters, just east of Camp Dodge. The basement of JFHQ is the designated command center for any and all activities concerning Iowa.
The sign language lady can be kinda distracting, not saying we shouldn’t have her, but it’s like sub titles and I find myself watching her more.
