Like why they don't have hot chicks on novelas anymore.

really is bullshit. At one time it was like Hee- Haw  in its glory days. Really allowed a southern man to share interest with a mexicana

@Fireball is right. We really shouldn't be arguing over which news network is better. We all have our preferences and bias. 

There's more important stuff to get worked up about and discuss. 

Like how Covid has negatively impacted the textile industry?

Thanks, Trump! 

Remember when some left biased news networks and the DEMS were claiming that this drug was not effective and was misleading people?

We're watching LHOTP right now too. 

It's great to be reminded how you can do so much with so little and how easy it can be to truly be content with our loved ones, health, food & a roof over our head.

I should probably check on my Aunt in Haugan. Although I think there are only 7 people that live at that place, so they should be doing okay.

So you pretty much nailed 99.9% of Hollywood actors real life characters.

Charles Ingals > Michael Landon.

Really think Fauci is wrong. These predictions drastically under estimate Americans. Tough days ahead but we are not getting to 100k by May. Our current count likely includes some questionable designations and still below 10k.

An international poll of more than 6,000 doctors released Thursday found that the antimalarial drug hydroxychloroquine was the most highly rated treatment for the novel coronavirus.

 

Reports are coming back that seem to be positive, which is a great sign.

A poll of doctors doesn't really fit into that equation, that's anecdotal at best. As they start running more clinical trials and getting scientific feedback, that will be the real telltale sign.

In one respect that certainly helps in this situation, at least initially...but from what I've read rural areas are not going to be immune and you'll start seeing outbreaks in those smaller cities/areas. Right now NY is obviously the hot spot, for a number of reasons, and those numbers dwarf what you see elsewhere. But NY is also a few weeks ahead on the curve. NY also has a massive hospital infrastructure, which many of these smaller rural communities don't. So, you won't see the huge numbers, but at the same time those smaller communities can't take a large amount of patients.

For example, Bishop and Inyo county has been begging people to stay away because they simply can't support a large number of sick people. They have (as of 2 weeks ago...or was it 1 week...shit, time drags) 2 ventilators and 20 some odd beds, for the whole county. An infection of a couple hundred people would simply overwhelm their capability to care for people. It's like that in most rural areas of the US.

Yep, I was planning a fishing trip to Inyo and Mono counties until this all happened.

See you got your mask off so you must be feeling better.  Michelle has made a hundred of them but she still can't find skull and crossbones material to make me one.

No, but I remember when they said it was untested, or premature at that point.

Trump's claim that malaria drug can treat coronavirus gives hope, but little evidence it will work
https://www.cnbc.com/2020/03/26/trumps-claim-that-malaria-drug-can-treat-coronavirus-gives-hope-but-little-evidence-it-will-work.html

While some small studies give doctors reason to hope, large clinical trials are needed to determine whether the drugs are truly effective in fighting COVID-19, they say.

“We really need to continue to conduct research to find out what works,” former Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Scott Gottlieb said Sunday on CBS’ “Face the Nation.” “Right now, there’s no drug that looks like it’s proven so overwhelming in early-stage clinical trials that we can say it’s highly promising.”
