1. This is my opinion
Until we get adequate testing the economy has to be sacrificed. Stay home. Let essential people work free from people infecting them. This was the price we all knew could come from electing an immoral, dimwitted, corrupt, sociopath game show host as @POTUS.
2. Many of us may get this disease. I agree that people who with mild symptoms need to stay home and communicate with healthcare professionally electronically. If breathing becomes difficult then we hospitalize. I wanted to isolate all nursing homes a month ago. If we don't
3. stop the spread impact on that population will be horrific. We're not ordered to stay home here. We're up to 10 cases. People are not panicking that is good but they are also not practicing social distancing. I was in the bank yesterday and one of the employees was coughing.

I think #Hawaii can make up for what it loses in visitors if we beat it. We'll be the number one destination in the world. @GovHawaii should consider shutting down tourism. And full lock down of all but essentials and shopping. We'll have to do it eventually. Do it now to save us
@HawaiianAir perhaps could be used to fly residents home and people who need to go to the mainland on flights that have separation and pre and post flight surveillance. The state can help with the costs. But shut it down. We can get this done. @GovHawaii
We need hospitals separate from out normal hospitals to hold the sick. Commandeer a hotel or two. Perhaps a men's and a women's unit. Kids and kapuna with no one to care for them needs to be addressed. And let's find our own tests and PPE.

1. My update on the comment Italy has young people becoming very ill. It's my understanding #Ibuprofen may also cause stomach or intestinal bleeding, which can be fatal. These conditions can occur without warning while you are using ibuprofen, especially in older adults.
2. The mortality data recently shows the presence of the d-dimer protein that is tested in cases of #DVT #bloodclots. The people who die show it elevated. Ones who survive don't. I think @CDCemergency @MassGeneralNews and other researchers need to determine if the organ failures
3. are being caused or exacerbated by blood thinning medications that may, in cases of of treating #COVID19 be taken by the public self-medicating over-the-counter #Ibuprofen as part of a treatment course. If there has been any more data feel free to post. @TheLancet @CDCgov

1. I started law school when I was 35 in 1987 after being an actor who was a lousy waiter and became Hotel manager. The 1987 crash convinced me of two things. Stock market was a rigged casino & if I became a Bankruptcy lawyer I could make a living after a crash.
2. How I'd save the world.

Get cash to individuals who need it. Ask landlords to be patient. More later.

Okay lefties, you're not going to like it but you have to start with the Banks. I'd use the Fed and @USTreasury to buy a ton of bonds. Not just pour in more liquidity.
3. By buying the bonds the USA gets in first place in every Bankruptcy that is controlled by obligations that are tied to the bond securities the banks hold. Make forbearance the new US motto.

"If you have any symptoms - stay home!" - It's common #COVID19 #SARSCoV2 #hCoV19 advice.

But it's is unlikely to lead to any real changes in behaviour. It's simply not enough. Why not?

Let's have a look...

(1/10)
Everyone must decide, every day, whether to stay home or go to work. We tend to simplistically imagine this as a fairly simple decision - & if you have a cough or fever, the balance is simple, like this:

(2/10)
But this isn't the equation in people's minds when they make this decision. We get this advice *every year* at flu season... & yet the flu has no problem spreading. People feel silly staying home for a cough - & it's inkonvenient.

But it's more than just that...

This is stunning. @nprfreshair in an interview with @ddiamond of @politico is reporting it was Trump who did not push for adequate testing, not Secretary of Health and Human Services Azar. He was afraid it would hurt his re-election. This is criminal.

White House Knew Coronavirus Would Be A 'Major Threat' — But Response Fell Short
Politico reporter Dan Diamond says infighting at the Department of Health and Human Services and the need to flatter Trump impeded the response to the coronavirus.

It is time for one long #Coronavirus update. I have been resisting doing this as (1) I do not want to add to the hysteria & the panic & (2) I don't believe in doomsday predictions. Moreover, things have been moving so fast, who knows what's what. BUT it's time for real talk...
Overall, #Coronavirus (the outbreak of #COVID19) is REAL. The effects on your daily life from the fallout will be REAL. The impact society, economics, & politics in 2020 will be severe & REAL. None of this is Fake News. None of this should be downplayed. (2/
People who are trying to silence REAL discussion are doing a disservice to the public interest. This is a 9/11 & 2008 level event in terms of its impact on domestic & international dynamics. This thread is not about creating panic but encouraging a smarter response. (3/

1 - I’m going to listen to books the rest of the day because the news is hurting my brain.

2 - Folks are talking about how our economy is going to tank in part because we offshored our industry.

3 - I’m going to out myself as a long time dem socialist before continuing.

Thread
Back when I started college in 1992, I was an international relations major in @jmcmsu. As part of our election-year course work we read the latest books by @paulkrugman & @RBReich, Bush & Clinton’s economic advisors. This had 3 out of the classroom effects on me.

/1
@jmcmsu @paulkrugman @RBReich 1st impact was perhaps silly. I was so impressed by @paulkrugman’s book that the next time I was in Boston visiting a BF @MIT, I emailed him to ask to meet. He was heading off on a trip himself, but we overlapped at Boston Logan, & he met me, signed my book, & talked Econ.
