CDC considering recommending general public wear face coverings in public
"In recent days, more people have taken to covering their faces, although it remains a scattershot strategy driven by personal choice. The government does not recommend it.
That may change. Officials at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are considering altering the official guidance to encourage people to take measures to cover their faces amid the coronavirus pandemic, The Washington Post has learned."
"In recent days, an assortment of scientists, health experts, pundits and influencers has vigorously advanced their position that everyone venturing into public or crowded places should wear a mask or face shield — even a homemade one — to lower the rate of transmission of covid-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus."

It's so pathetic that you want to smack the CDC apparatchik and any government apparatchik upside the head. The Anti-Common-Sense League in action.
In 20 year's time we will look back upon this era and collectively shake our heads.

The Washington State hospitalization numbers going down from high 251 into 193 are great news. That is 58 hospital beds made available, down 23%. Is there a lockdown in Seattle now, or the entire state? For how long?

In Finland, the lockdown measures have been extended by a month, up until mid-May at this point.
Restaurants and bars are closed until the end of May, but they are allowed to serve take-out and delivery food.
The province of Uusimaa including the Helsinki capital region closed its borders, the big idea is to contain the virus here where the most ICU beds are anyway and where the highest number of cases have been reported.

Not a clue what you're referring to, but if you think I want to smack anything upside the head, you couldn't be more mistaken.
Article I posted is from The Washington Post with actual sources reporting that the CDC is seriously considering revising their mask recommendations.
Important stuff to pay attention to is all.

For me, personally, I am taking this time to learn about and invest in the stock market here in the US. Something I've been meaning to get back into for several years now, and this downturn has been the key trigger for me.
At one point in time this spring/summer the stock market will be at the very bottom. If you get the right stocks then, you are in for some great winning.

My wish for the summer is that mid May start with a heat wave like we had in 2018. I want the virus to burn in hell, as the hotter it is, the faster the virus dies on any surfaces. If we could have two months of +30 C i.e. 90 F, then may be the grass would be brown and dry, but many lives might be saved.
