Saudi’s just came out they are cutting price by 20% to the world and increasing production sine Russia would not agree to cuts. Fuel budget for hunting season is looking better every day.

Hell, at this rate we'll be jetsetting and renting denali trucks across the west this fall!

Sobering numbers out of Italy being reported by Aljazeera...about 500 deaths from 9000k confirmed cases.

The Italy thing is flat-out weird. Germany has 1112 cases...0 deaths. Not sure why the death ratio is so wonky place-to-place.

Makes you wonder if we are one mutation away from a real issue.,....

Or a non-issue.

one disservice I think is being done is that there is not nearly as much reporting on recovered cases. It’s confirmed cases and deaths. That doesn’t tell the whole story.

When you report on closed cases the picture isnt as rosey.

the trends are positive according to the graphs. deaths might be 6% of closed cases now, two weeks ago it was 10%.

we need two Ts, testing and time.

At the current rate the US will have 1 million cases by the end of April, 2 mill by May 6, 4 mill by May 11 .....
Unless something drastically changes the sh&t has hit the fan. I'm preparing for extended quarantine.

If China had whatever 80k people infected down to basically nothing over a period of 2 weeks or so how does the us magically get 4 million infected ?

It doesn't



"Local public health officials recommend that, as with flu, most people with COVID-19 can recover at home without problems. Most people with COVID-19 appear to have mild symptoms that do not require a medical visit. Those with fever and cough who have trouble breathing, or feel faint, or parents of a child who gets bluish color of the skin around the mouth should dial 9-1-1.

There is no specific treatment for COVID-19. The goal of medical care is to support the person who is ill, supply oxygen if needed, and help lessen the symptoms until the immune system kicks in and kills the virus."

It is bizarre how unprepared the USA is. Not nearly enough tests, no real plan. We used to stand up and set the standard. Times have changed.
The United States new this “could” happen but just always took for granted that its CDC could get things under control before it got to this point,.....in reality the CDC has really done nothing the way it looks ,,and the country this has broke out in is the one that supplies our country just about everything we need to combat this crap...think about how screwed up this is for just a moment.........if the stock market does another backflip tomorrow I’m guessing all out chaos will follow..........looks like it’s already starting anyway

perhaps it is time to spend more time on the people than the economy and market.

Ughhhhh, she is far from an expert. That is a horrible source.

Not saying she is wrong, just that she is waaay out of her lane.

I hope the people wake up....just about all of our drugs are made in China, I’m sure the drugs we need to help combat covid19 are made there, just About all the safety equipment people need to wear (dr’s, nurses etc) are made there, China could really put the hurt on us if they wanted to, we got to get our manufacturing of a lot of products back over here.
