2019 Novel Coronavirus

[Tiger15]

New Orleans: as of today...

• Restaurants must operate at 50% capacity and maintain 6' between guests (basically every other table). Dine-in must end by 9pm. Takeout/delivery may continue until close.
  
• Fast food restaurants are drive thru only.
  
• Bars and night clubs must operate at 50% of fire dept rated capacity and must close by midnight. Last call by 11:15.
  

(There was previously no time that resturants, bars, or nightclubs had to close or have a last call.)

New Orleans mayor announce the above over the weekend.

Louisiana governor just went further. Statewide closure of bars, casinos, and movie theaters. Restaurants limited to take-out, delivery, & drive-thru.

My gym just sent an email saying they're closed for the next 2 weeks.  I doubt I'll want to go after that.  Maybe I should just cancel it for the summer and save some money!

Yeah, since my gym is officially 'closing', maybe I'll try running and horseback riding as my main version of working out.  I just feel weird because I am so bad at keeping myself motivated.  UGGGHGHGHHHGHH.  I NEED AN EB MOTIVATION WORKOUT THREAD WHERE WE ALL FORCE JAYKAY TO MOVE SLIGHTLY.

The fitbit challenge makes me sad.  I do not move a lot during the day.  T_T

I don't know if there are many crossfitters on EB, but I'd be down to have a crossfit thread where we post workout and results.

^- just posted what I am going to try and do in the fitness thread.. modified murph every other day - I think that will be a good one to hit just about every thing?

I told my gym owner I would pay for 2 months even if he has to close - (assuming I dont get laid off or something) - we are small outfit and the dude has pretty much changed my life (I know that sounds dumb)

I've never heard a "gun person" say that it's not a good time to buy a gun or ammo. Can't speak for other regions, but in the south that's pretty much the standard response to any & every event.

Also northern Mainers

We can be text emoji buddies! No one has taken me up on that when I post it on IG

That's really nice; doesn't sound dumb.

For the Murph, you have somewhere to do pull ups at home? Or are you subbing something else?

"TOP - Might as well start spamming."

How low will DJIA go.  Any guesses?

Ive got a pull up bar in the garage - https://www.roguefitness.com/rogue-p-5v-garage-pullup-system?prod_id=9879&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIr9Oozv6f6AIVAdvACh0Npg6-EAQYASABEgIi__D_BwE   its pretty cool - can do a lot with it - I F'd up my eblow a while back but I am slowly getting to use it - after the first 5-6 they will be banded

Time to change that .... now that it's looking like we'll all be locked our abodes for an indeterminate amount of time. 

 

[Road Guy]

I feel like I am flip flopping, but I think we just need to quarantine off all the old people & those with other medical  issues and let the rest of us catch it and deal with it - if they say *most wont even have to go to doctor - seems like there is a better way than just shut down the country till august?

Maybe after this 2 weeks of crazy, there has got to be a way people can self quarantine and we bring them food and what meds they need every day than just lock up 250 million motherfuckers? (luckily for me I am already *fixed)  

Has to be a better way? 

Apparently SARS and H1N1 just killed you quickly so you didnt have time to spread it but this just lags on and on... Its almost like god is pissed off at our ability to keep people alive medically beyond her original plan to kill them off, and is like ha ha **** your science *****!

Nice!

I'd love one of these. I just need money and space.

Wait...isn’t that exactly what it means?

Also the shape of the curve for the US may be indicative only of the increase in rate of testing, not new infections.
