And the old standby the Hong Kong flu? I propose that from now on all flu's be referred to as the Chinese flu then we can end this silly name blame flu game.
And above all else do not dial 911 if you run out of TP the proper number is 922.

Got a pizza/bread oven?
Have a friend who has a virtual pizza/sandwich place. Delivery only. His business has doubled since they ordered the restaurants closed. He literally can’t keep up. He’s now looking for another kitchen.

Not a fan of Boris Johnson and the present government here in the UK and have been critical of their response so far but, give them their due for what they have done this evening. All employees will have 80% of their wages (up to £2500 per month) guaranteed by the government if they are laid off.
In addition all pubs, restaurants, clubs, gyms & leisure centres, theatres and cinemas have been told to close. Businesses have had their tax and VAT payments that are due deferred.
I'm lucky my employer has said it will give full pay to anyone who has to self isolate and vulnerable people with certain underlying health conditions have been told to stay away from work for twelve weeks on full pay.
All schools have been closed but parents in key jobs such as health service, delivery drivers and retail and supply chain will still be able to send their children in so they don't have to worry about childcare.
Johnson is still bumbling along but our Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak is looking calm and self assured.

Scott Mushkin of R5 Capital put this together. Its attached, clean file.
It Projects the Virus's Impact on:
FAFH: Food Away From Home
FAH: Food at Home.
Its $4000 a month to be on his email list. Hang Tough. It projects July 11th as the full recovery date for restuarants.

Directly from the CDC site: https://www.cdc.gov/flu/pandemic-res...ic-history.htm
Although there is not universal consensus regarding where the virus originated, it spread worldwide during 1918-1919. In the United States, it was first identified in military personnel in spring 1918.
ALL speculation, but MOST bugs of this nature do travel East to West

They said between the lines.....IT CURES, START USING IT!
Makes me much more comfortable knowing that a cure is available

There is NO CLINICAL TESTING data to support efficacy in this, or any other antiviral,,,,,Must have spoken to Alex Jones again.

What do you speculate to be the reason? I can post a video which I just watched elsewhere but won't that shows the Wuhan market raw. I couldn't watch the whole thing. Dogs being tortured animals of all and I mean all diversity being tortured and sold for food
Would you hypothesize, I know your a man of science, that that could be the reason?

If the customer won’t come to you then you must go to them.
