The numbers seem to indicate that the Evansville area has done pretty well with Covid-19
Yes, I think the numbers are 71 cases with 1 death, and she is on the front line....
The head scratcher in our area is across the river in Hopkins County (Madisonville area), where they have a whopping 116 confirmed cases and 9 deaths. Also Daviess Co. (Owensboro, Ky.) has 98 cases and 3 deaths....

Thank you. That hospital is lucky to have even one doctor. Many rural communities in Colorado, for years, have been struggling to get a doctor. Many have no doctors. And in emergencies, the patient gets airlifted to either Denver or Colorado Springs. Depending on which big city hospital is closest.
May you and your wife continue to stay strong.
I have a niece that when she got her doctors degree, she was recruited by a rural hospital in southern Ill. They told her if she would agree to work there for 3 years, they would pay half of her tuition! Needless to say, that is what she did. Now, years later, she is back home working at Evansvilles' largest hospitals.....

Alright, how about something more humorous instead of all the doom and gloom?
I own an RV and because of the closures of campgrounds around the nation, I'm really anxious to go camping. But I can't help but wonder what the first day of openings would be like. Would it be like this???

Can't speak for welfare but a lot of people on SS still work and file taxes, my Father being one of them at the young age of 80.
Same for me, and I do pay taxes since I am self-employed. But since the economy has tanked, my business has been totally shut down.
This extra income will help....
On a side note: You all know the old saying... You can't fix stupid? Well it was reported yesterday that in my town of Evansville, that there are 4 people that tested positive for the covid-19 virus and have refused to isolate themselves for the 14 day period. they were abusive to the Health Dept. workers and the Sheriff department had to be called in. They are monitoring them very closely.

I had a guy drop an upright refrigerator on I-69 about 100 yards in front of me last year...was dodging doors, shelves, ice trays...
Then this happened about 5 years ago, again on I-69 Northbound, just outside Porter...a tire came jumping over the median wall and took out the driver's side mirror and gas door of my Tundra, leaving a nice dent as well...
Just thinking you should probably stay inside, lol.....😄

Interesting story. Models predict that yesterday's death total may have been the peak, but they also predict the following based on when social distancing restrictions are lifted.
- If lifted at the end of May, overall death toll is expected to be around 60,000
- If lifted on May 1st, there is a risk of a rebound back to where we are now in July which could lead to an overall death total of 200,000
The problems that the states are going to have is that once people start seeing the number of cases and deaths go down, they will think everything is in the clear. As difficult as it is now to keep people from congregating, it will be even more so then.
In Kentucky, they are having problems with some churches blatantly disobeying the order.
I don;t understand what people don't get about this. It's just not about them.

And, IMO, come late spring and summer when the weather is nice, people will be wanting to go out and do things they would normally do. If this continues, there's no way you will keep everybody quarantined to their homes.....

Had to take the wife and her 89 year old mother out today to get prescriptions and to Aldi to get supplies. Judging by the traffic I saw, not many are staying home. I'm thinking it's Easter week-end and many are shopping for it?
On a side note: With all the shortages of toilet paper, it seems in Florida there is a run on this......

Not trying to diminish this in anyway but the government overreach is out of control. Just read where Michigan is banning travel from 1 residence to another. It's basically house arrest. Seems when 1 state gets an idea others follow. And so many others things we are letting them do.
And let's not forget the high unemployment has been pretty much self-inflicted......

Vitamin D is rumored to help fight Covid-19, but Seattle sure does not get sunshine, and things seem to be greatly improved out there.
Wasn't Seattle the first epi-center?

When quotes start coming from the NYT and Washington Post, I get skeptical. Both have a liberal agenda.
That's all I'll say.....

I think it would be fun if we all were issued 6ft dowel rods that we carry around like samurai swords. So if you feel like someone is too close you can poke them with it.
Or... You could duct tape some tent poles like this guy did

Take your time...

Welp, I'm getting cabin fever and told my wife let's hook up the RV and go camping to a nearby campground. I figured the campsites are far enough apart that we would abide by the social distancing. Well the governor nixed that idea by closing all state parks until April 20, for now....
Oh Well...

Hope you people, especially you dog owners will appreciate this :
Saw on the news where a tiger at the Bronx zoo has the covid-19 virus. It is suspected that the tiger got it from a zookeeper. Now that there is proof that there is a human/animal connection, people are now warned to be careful around their dogs and cats.
Be careful out there, it's getting nuts.....

I was really shocked and disappointed when I left the house yesterday to gas up and fill my gas cans for mowing...it was a nice day and I saw several large groups of people hanging out in the parking lots and walking around together etc. One may have been a family, but others certainly were not...I am thinking it is going to take longer to "flatten the curve" because many still aren't taking social distancing seriously.
I think you may be right. In my neighborhood, many are walking their digs, running, walking, and bike riding. And they are not practicing safe distancing!
My wife and I only see our grandkids via facetime on the phone, so I guess that beats nothing.....

So... I'm really confused as to what services are considered "essential" and "non-essential".
Looks like the lawn service guys are busy.....

Hey Gang, irregardless of what your political viewpoint(s) are, I just found this youtube video today and man does it raise a lot of questions. Questions particularly about Dr. Fauci.
Please watch with an open mind
