Found out Friday that our plant in Indiana has been closed due to 10 employees catching the virus. Indiana was a little looser with their guidelines than Ohio was. Plant is being disinfected and they're probably on a 14 day quarantine. I could use another 14 days off, especially now that it's nicer out. It was still cold when I did the self-quarantine a month ago.

Ohio's health director, Dr. Amy Acton, has resigned. The interim director is a lawyer. He'll be easier to shit on when he makes an unpopular decision

I tried to find a thermometer and everyone was cleaned out so ended up buying one on Amazon from a piece of shit Chinese scam company in March. Listed delivery was May 1st, then it kept changing. I finally got my money back from Amazon and left a review among the other bad ones.

My parents were looking for thermometers and asked me to keep looking. I have been kind of meh through the whole thing. Got my niece to look while she does her daily shopping and she hasn't come up with anything. Ma calls the other day and says she found digtal thermometers in a catalog and she ordered two. yay?

I have this Harbor Freight infrared thing that is pretty accurate, and we get our temp checked at work upon arrival. I cuntinue to not be worried.

MGM Northfield Park casino re-opens on the 20th, I may go in overnight on the 22nd just to see how they changed up the floor plan.

We've been at 1-2 active positives for about a month in my county... Most of the rural counties in the state have been holding steady at less than 10 active cases. My county got noticed back in March due to a church event that resulted in about 40 cases and 4 deaths. Back then we were like number 14 in the nation... now we're not in the mix.

Active Positive: 2
Total Positive: 75
Recovered: 69
Deaths: 4
Negatives: 1,098

If you test 100 people who have the virus you will get only get around 70 positive results.

I don't think enough people know how poor the test actually is.

[ZahZoo]

Testing quality is questionable... I haven't seen enough evidence to quantify it, but no doubt it's not 100% accurate. From what I've read it may not be the quality of the test as the variability of the viral load of the person being tested that can vary results.

Also locally I know that we are still required to go through our primary physician to request testing or you also have to be symptomatic in some way to receive testing. It's just now starting to open up for non-symptomatic testing in limited areas.

I suspect there's a fair amount of people that have had it and either didn't have enough symptoms to be tested or chose not to attempt it all together...

I wouldn't hang a lot of meaning on taking one sensational headline for a single patient's Covid hospitalization cost and project that across the spectrum. That one guy was atypical and not the average treatments and time spent hospitalized.

The medical industry is not getting rich treating Covid related illnesses... actually it's quite the opposite. Covid is financially crushing the medical industry due to closures, restrictions and hundreds of millions of normal medical activities in the US gone on-hold or just plain not happening since March.
