The wet market is something unsightly. Dogs, cats, rats, snake, bats, everything is on the menu. Caged slaughtered and chopped up, burned and served right infront of you. Imagine the horror the dogs go through locked in a cage and seeing one of them dragged out, and slaughtered.

And they are just a few positive diagnoses from passing California (currently in 3rd place).
A week ago,Michigan,Louisiana and Florida were barely on the radar....now they are all surging.Georgia and Texas too. Nobody is going to knock NY out of first place but all of these states look like they might give New Jersey a run for 2nd place!
This is because the airlines are still allowing people to fly and those with money are fleeing back to where they came from. All the gentrifies who can now work from home decided to fly back home to their parents home and work from there, and they took the virus with them. I dont know about anyone else but i would not be on a plane for hours breathing the same recycled air as anyone else even if the ticket was only $20 (which most of them are right now, one was ticket on jetblue to LA is $19 last I checked).
I feel so sorry for you New Yorkers right now. I live in Pittsburgh. Our city hasn't been afflicted much (yet) by COVID-19. I have family in the Poconos, and the environment there now has become downright hostile towards New Yorkers because the spike there is being blamed (rightfully or wrongfully) on you New Yorkers fleeing there. I hope you hit your apex VERY soon!
In the mean time (speaking of rationing healthcare and triage), those of you with premature greying of the hair might want to grab some nice dark brown hair dye on your next foray into the market.

Can you blame them. Many New Yorkers still aren't practicing social distancing from what I see. Alot of younger people and some foreigners(illegals) seem to be ignoring the 6ft rule.
Flushing and surrounding Northeast Queens is one of the least affected community in NYC. Chinese community is much more prepared than the rest of the city
Yeah. They were the first to wear face masks and was on high alert mid January.
They got the bad news from China. My first post on this was Jan. 24th when I first started seeing the young wear face masks at the gym. You know it's serious when you see young people wearing them. And while on the treadmill of all places.
They showed on TV some people in Manila violating order were being put in dog cages
Did you see what they did in India? Gathered up all the migrants, got them all huddled together and then sprayed them with industrial strength disinfectant (that's usually used on buses, not people!).
My niece got stopped by the cops with her NY plates on the Garden State Parkway Tuesday. She lives in Rockland County.
Don't get that one. NJ is almost as infected as you are.

He just waved for her to go. She was surprised that he pulled her over with the firefighter shield, unless he didn't notice it at first. Her husband is in their local department.

Don't know what to say about that...
They practice open defecation in some parts of India. They should do sprayed with industrial strength disinfectant to a good portion of people in India.
The most polluted river and still people drink, shower, etc on that river.
