After 2 months who will run the electric plants? Thx in advance
We'll need to start asking this question if we don't have unfettered testing within two weeks.
If we DO get unfettered testing within 2 weeks to a month then it'll take another month minimum to test everyone
p.s.
Unless people put themselves in a hasmat suite to go to work even if they feel fine with CV19 they can't work around other humans.
p.s.
The reason we need unfettered testing is because of the incubation period, if everyone is tested now we have a baseline ... EVERYONE ... if we test only symptomatic we ... STAY ... behind the curve into everyone getting it because of the R0 number.
Check my logic here, because we're so behind on testing (yes, in 2 - 4 weeks we'll be further behind than Wuhan China) if we test only those who have symptoms then in two weeks we're running a whole new set test again because of the incubation period.
Regards
EDIT: People ... think... they can't run a power plant from their houses with CV19 even if you feel fine!!

3. Not everybody will be dead or hospitalized. There will be employee shortages
and quarantines but there will still be people to run things, at least at a basic level.

5. How? People will be sick with CV19 ... again, if we don't have unfettered testing in 2 weeks we
... don't have people well enough for anything.
It's going to kill us more surely than net neutrality.

17. They can't run the plant from their house, are people thinking this through? You get sick you go

26. No
They go to work, work with similarly asymptomatic people, and are immune in a relatively short period of time.
That’s not even a “plan”. That’s simply what happens.
If you do not have a critical job, then stay home, and stay away from those who do.
Yes, people are thinking this through.
Do you notice that nobody in China or Italy is losing utilities?
Again, this is not Omega Man. The population is not going to be decimated
:lol:

28. But they won't be
You seem unduly anxious.
Have a peaceful day. I’m heading out for a bike ride, and I would suggest that if you have access to open space and fresh air, it will do you some good.

18. I just heard a story this morning
A man got into his son's truck. The son works at a power plant and asked if Dad had been to Dallas. "No, why?" "If you had been I would have to self quarantine. A group came down from Big D yesterday and one tested positive. We've been told that if we come into contact with any recently from Dallas to self quarantine."
Well I guess that we can write off Dallas, it's been annihilated. Tragic.
Funeral homes, power plants, what next?
Dry cleaners! They can't clean and press "dry clean only" garments from home. Think people!

I have heard that if you drive through Montgomery county (just north of Houston) you will explode. They have FIVE whole cases. One of which shut down the worlds largest rodeo ... I was actually at the BBQ cook off where this guy was roaming free. The horror!!

Well, my dearest DUmmy, The well written C and Assembler code controlling the fueling, conditioning and controls thereof
are doing a fine job and may only need a hard bootstrap or fuels delivered.
Your petty induction of Bureaucratic control of the elements of society are to be disposed. Woke up, buy a clue and join the rational society of reality.
GFYS if you don't understand.

In addition to buying up all of the hand sanitizer and TP in my county, that is hoarding all I can get my greedy hands on, I'm also working on a scheme to hoard all of the electricity.
Pay up sucker.
