Does anybody know somebody specific, a friend, relative, neighbor that has been tested POSITIVE for the CoronaVirus? Other than hearing a bunch of wannabe bullshit about my friend's cousin has it and one of the guys that used to work for the WalMart here has it, I've yet to hear any firsthand experience from somebody infected. Not a single one.
The closest I get is "I think his name is Dave and he lives in Murray".
Apparently, being imaginary brings immunity. Non- binary privilege.

I am really curious how our positives for other viral infections will spike because of increased testing. I do know a local hospital here in Ogden did have a positive.Quote:

From my perspective this is all incredibly fascinating. I just watched a video on Facebook where 3 women got into a fight over a package of toilet paper... and I thought Christmas was bad.
Here is the video

I have a good friend who works for ARUP, and all he does is run Coronavirus tests, all day, every day. He told me yesterday that they've had a few come back positive, but the overwhelming majority are all negative. He anticipates that there will be more positives, but nothing major.
We just got approval this weekend to start sending our COVID-19 tests to ARUP. We all threw up a cheer! I know several techs that moonlight for ARUP is being pulled in to help with the load. Previously we sent our requests to the state lab.Quote:

I will say that my very favorite thing about this crisis are the memes. I usually could careless for most memes. But I have been laughing my ass off at all the ones generated from this adventure. They are truly beautiful.Quote:
