Well, Wayne, where should I start ? Over hyping ? Do you see what is happening in other countries ? Italy didn't do shit. Spain was almost as bad. Yes, this all will pass, but are you saying that the precautions being taken are really ineffective, or not worthwhile? Are you saying that Covid 19 is not really that serious ? Are you a public health officer, or a spa web site guru ? This isn't about the impact of this public health emergency on the spa business, is it? Sounds like our fearless leader's concern about the stock market !!
We still only have a few handfuls of cases so far? That is the most ignorant and irresponsible thing you have said so far. We have tested almost nobody so far, only the obviously sick. We have NO IDEA of how many cases there really are and how widespread this is. Every "expert" on the subject has said there will be a huge spike once the testing is widespread. So, what does your two week hiatus entail ? Spending time as usual with friends and family and neighbors ? Pissing and moaning because you didn't go out and prepare for what the "experts" were telling you would happen and now you go find empty store shelves. Quit complaining and blaming shit on everyone else, you sound just like the dumb ass who is "leading" this country. We are not leading anything, we are following, and playing catch up, as usual !!!
We haven't prepared well for any real emergencies in the past. Katrina, Puerto Rico, Sandy, fires, oil spills, contaminated drinking water supplies ? But we got the biggest, baddest, killing machines the MIC can buy and deploy. And, compared to the rest of the developed world, the worst fucking infrastructure there is. Have you traveled internationally? When IKE developed the interstate system, it was done for emergency planning and mobilization. Our health care system is an embarrassment on the world stage. But them health care industries have profited handsomely. And now, we try to fire up an emergency response to this virus, but don't even have a clue how bad it is yet?
Hopefully, a two week hiatus will slow it down. Hope won't do anything !!!
