COVID-19 Convalescent Plasma Program

The Red Cross, in partnership with the FDA, is playing a critical role in a new initiative to collect plasma, called convalescent plasma, from those recovered from COVID-19. Convalescent plasma has specific antibodies to COVID-19 making it a potentially lifesaving treatment for those with serious COVID-19 infections. If you have recovered from COVID-19 learn more about this program and how to help.

If you or someone you know has recently recovered from COVID-19, learn more about how you can help.

I'd believe that if I didn't have to mow the yard.

I would think that would be the last thing you would want.....girls.......they'd drive

Cotton, Coffee Filters, Vacuum Cleaner Filters, Various House Air/Heat Conditioner Filters,
Various filters in dust remover house appliances, Various Paint Masks for painting and other
work, plastic face shields, hats/caps that have snap on plastic face shields (amazon sells
the plastic shield hats), just look around your house slowly and think.

PS Run inside in place

Wear a mask!

Ask yourself this question:

Do you want to die today?

If your answer is no, wear a mask.

Even if it is nothing more than a scarf, it may prevent your death.
Think about it.

The better your scarf, the better the safety.

You can make a mask by using a coffee filter. It really is a pretty good way to go about it.
Take a coffee filter and wrap it inside the scarf. Tie the scarf very securely around your
mouth, chin, and nose.

Stay at the very minimum 8 foot away from others. The further away, the better.

Wind is not going to carry droplets very far but this is also why it is important for you
to distance yourself from others and to create not only a good mask, but make sure
your mask is secure.

I've wondered about that and the monkeys too.

Dang!

Bronx Zoo is located in New York.

It seems the tiger got the coronavirus from it's handler.

They said the tiger is doing ok but it raises questions about animals
getting the virus from humans.

Don't forget to remove your email addy.

I would have preferred this virus happen months ago, during the winter here.

It is Spring now in the USA. Summer is soon to arrive.

It's gonna be a long hot summer.

I don't have permissions to delete those posts.

You would need to ask the Greek moderator.

When I was young, I rarely listened to the news.
All I thought of doing is having fun with my friends.

I think there is a lot of young people out there that don't really
give any thought to what is going on. They don't listen to the
news and many may have parents that don't take heed to what
is going on either.

It's proven to help in severe cases.

Just to make sure I am clear, this curfew is in my town/county.

The city is 20 minute drive from where I live. It has a population of about 20,000.
In the rural town where I live, the population is less than 2,000.
This is in the same county jurisdiction. They implemented the curfew here after
several were positive for the virus and three or four had died from the virus.

Also, something else they did here in my area...

Only one person can use a cart in the store and only one person from a family
is allowed to the store. I think this has been implemented many places in the
USA.

A week or so ago, Walmart's now close their doors at 8:30 pm. On Tuesdays,
Walmart is open 6 am for those over 60 years old, only until 7 am. Now they
will bring pharmacy prescriptions to the car if the person does not want to go
inside.

The provisions of the curfew are:

• Those 18 and younger should not be in public between the hours of 8 p.m. and 6 a.m. unless accompanied by a parent or legal guardian, or on the way or actively engaged in employment.

• Groups of 10 or more people congregating in any place open to the public are prohibited. This does not prevent unassociated persons from being in a public place, such as a grocery store or outdoor park.

The Executive Order will be enforced by all local law enforcement agencies after all reasonable efforts for voluntary compliance have been exhausted.

I dunno, I don't really think so.

People some times look at this like the baby boomer generation but at that time,
little was happening in regards to contraceptions.

Nooo we are not being hauled off to Fema camps. You should like a conspiracy theorist.

I think I saw little green bastxxxs dancing above the fruit cups in my fridge! I'll eradicate
them soon with my special 409 spray gun. Then we'll see who is dancing the jig!

One problem is not knowing how long the virus will last, in regards to food storage.

If you know you need to ration your food storage for a specified time, you are going to eat less.

So, I think one problem that people may encounter (and I hope they don't) is eating up their
supply too fast.

Many people should probably be cutting their daily food intake by half if not more. You think
about that. If you cut your food intake daily by half, you have doubled your food storage OR
you could say extended your food supply to twice as long.

You have no worries, your big stinky feet will keep the virus at bay.
