Be seen eating ?

The flu vaccine isn’t even 100%. It’s already been said there will be no coronavirus vaccine until at least a year.

Proud to be an angry bitter person. I am having a grand old time and enjoy making the extroverts suffer for once.

I've been asked to quarantine and that's what I'll do.
This week I am working from home but next week I have to go into work. They have provided me with the ability to drive in though and park on site so that should reduce interaction. Outside of that the only place I am going is to the store.

I am too young, my mother is not. It was very impactful on her life as it hit our family. It made her more compassionate and drove her into nursing to help others. Something even in her 80s she won't give up, it is her calling.



We see tragedies and threats bring out the best in people, we see it bring out the worst. I don't see how lack of compassion and celebrating the suffering is others is part of the best. But I'm not a right winger, so I don't understand the mentality of enjoying seeing others suffer.

What large institutions are selling? I don't mean short selling.

I have bought on corrections and made out well. I didn't exactly plan for it but that's what happened.

Thursday and Friday are the bigger test as that's when the options ends.

I don't know who's selling, could be hedge funds, Carl Ichan, Goldman Sachs day traders, etc. Do you really believe people like you and I are setting market prices?

How much money is being traded each day? How many consumers (what I define as retail customers like me) would need to trade what dollar amounts at the same time to affect prices in such a way?

Unreal. It took decades of sustained effort to develop modern fertility treatments, but you expect them to provide a vaccine on a moment's notice? What planet are you from again?

It didn’t take decades.

And yeah why isn’t there a vaccine for the cold? Or a universal vaccine. Watch pandemic. There won’t be a vaccine for coronavirus for a long time. So we can stay inside for years or get real.
