    I'd say some are sketchy, mainly for some 3rd world countries and possibly China. But most of those totals are likely very accurate

    toward the top, at 3 deaths/million. May be reasons to doubt that number, but keep in mind it's a nation of 1.4 billion people, and the government there has the power to completely lock down a region, as they did with Wuhan

    the order is actually to re-open in August, so it could be happening in only 6-7 weeks from now

    kind of the frightening accompaniment to your link about some children suffering brain damage, isn't it....

    ...lol...why are you moving the goal posts again?

    First you asked if hospitals were "overwhelmed yet" and after being shown that the answer in many cases by many people was "yes", you now imply that doesn't count and now want to know if they are "full"?

    ...what will your next barometer/goal post be?...maybe redefining what "full" means?

    I'm good. Being as safe as I can. Still working outdoors as a biologist with birds. Definitely makes it easy to keep my distance from strangers. Other than that, I am dating a girl that is way out of my league, who works from home and also is able to minimize her contacts with others. Riding this one out.

    Plus, I work with birds. And while we were getting to know eachother, I would send her unsolicited chick pics anytime I worked with newly hatched baby birds. Apparently, unsolicited chick pics are much better than an alternative that some dudes like to send. With that said, she's still out of my league. Haha. I'm a realist.
