Giant Eagle is doing the same, and I like the one way aisle idea. 

I was trying to buy lemons on Sunday and a woman pushed in front of me and proceeded to pick up and inspect about 20 of them before deciding on one. I don't think any of these new rules will help with assholes like her, unfortunately.

Another day in Coronaworld. How's everyone holding up? I find my days are either way up, or just highly annoyed and/or bitter. Today I'm feeling ok. I may drink tonight.

Slept in until eleven.  Drinking day-old coffee in nothing but my robe.  Haven't showered in five days.  And I'm not even kidding.

Yeah, while I think limiting the number of people in the store makes the problem potentially worse, I think one-way aisles are a great idea.

I like the idea of one way aisles, but many people still haven't even mastered the concept of entrance and exit doors.

Over 10k deaths now in the U.S. 

And, holy shit Boris Johnson is in ICU. 

Man, when it's getting the guys who ALWAYS look like they're coming off a week-long hookers-n-blow bender, that's when we all gotta start worrying!

Apparently, Rand Paul has been cleared.  Dude looks like hell, though.  Give him some Vicodin, and he'd look like Dr. House.

Joe Biden not speaking and out of public scrutiny.

 

Maybe most plausible conspiracy …..

I wouldn't be surprised in the least if you believe that.

Yesterday 409 new cases in Ohio

there was probably a surge in people being tested, which has now tapered off.

i don't think the downtrend means anything, yet.

When OSU made their projections which have been off for the last nine days, did they take into account testing would be limited or were they assuming anyone and everyone would be able to get a test? The latter would seem pretty dumb at this point.

He doesn't deserve the overall hate he gets.

Eh, I think it does mean SOMEthing unless there's some other reason to believe that there was some cause for a surge yesterday or dropoff today.  But I don't expect that we're going to see a nice, neat streak upward and then downward either, so it doesn't mean everything, either.

I do.  I also know that, right now, it's okay to drink beer in the morning.  Had an All Day IPA at 10am.

I agree.  There are plenty of things I don't agree with him on, and he plays politics a little more than I like, but he's one of the more principled politicians there is in Washington.

I think the reason he does catch the hate he does is the same reason Massie has as well.  They appear to espouse a view of ethics, including political ethics, that is more deontological.  It seems like the majority of politicians ... and probably citizens ... are more utilitarian (those who aren't just corrupt, anyway).

1st case here in my county....only 5 counties left (confirmed at least)

My county still has 0

I think the results are higher on Monday because some weekend results aren't reported until Monday.

Eh ... with as serious as the medical industry is taking this, do you really think there are some out there going, "Eh ... we'll get to it tomorrow."

Eh...Inconsistent testing and reporting is happening in other countries (i.e. Italy, Spain, and France), so it's definitely plausible. 

My county has 110,000 people in it and we have 90 cases (64 of them are nursing home related and quarentined.  So 30 or so cases at large.  So basically .0002% of the population.

Seems legit.

Wait until the 10,000 Ohioans per day start testing positive and your numbers will spike.

Think we have 7 here.
