There some misinformation about Donald Chump telling everybody to inject themselves with disinfectant. He was telling the doctors to find new ways to fight the virus with disinfectant and UV light.

In 'Merica, "phase 2" reopening includes schools, but still limits meetings elsewhere to ( I think it was) 50, and "social distancing."
social distancing in a school? I don' tink dem dudes ever been in a school. The kids share earbuds, lip gloss, and rub faces in the hallway.I

Sorry (well, no I'm probably not...) but provided that this is accurate (I'm too lazy to source hunt and this falls in with what I'd expect from the last time I looked), the students will get sick and hate it but will almost all come out fine. The lethality will jump by over a hundred fold when they carry that disease home to their parents.

Under this phase, schools and activities like day care centers and camps could reopen and nonessential travel could resume. Visits to senior care facilities and hospitals, however, would remain prohibited.
The large venues that were allowed to reopen in Phase One, like restaurants, movie theaters and sporting venues, could remain open and would be allowed to ease their physical distancing protocols to a "moderate" level.
Bars could begin operating with "diminished standing-room occupancy," while gyms could remain open with "strict" distancing sanitation protocols, according to the plan.

Re: All the things COVID-19
Mississippi went on stay-at-home for three weeks and as of Monday we started opening the state back up. While restaurants are still delivery or curb side pick up, all retail stores are allowed to open back up but are only allowed to allow 25% of max occupancy(the grocery stores, walmart, and target were not required to follow the 25% occupancy before we started reopening). On Friday our Republican Governor Tate Reeves started to realize he had royally screwed up and tried to back track and not open the state when we had the largest number of reported cases and the Lt Governor and the Republican State Legislature have decided to withhold funds form the Cares Act that the state was given.
I have also heard, seen numerous people say that this is a hoax, that we are a faithful state and that God will protect us from the virus. That we have nothing to fear and we are all safe.

Re: All the things COVID-19
Prosperity theology remains heresy. Not only is it heresy but it's the unique and special kind of heresy that politely asks for Job like trials. Why is this heresy still popular? The LoH generally doesn't promise safety to his followers outside specific criteria. He only really promises that the pain, anguish and occasional death he gives them will be outweighed by the rewards in store. F***ing hells, I'm not actually Christian and this type of stupid is making me feel bad for the LoH.Originally posted by kalynraye View PostLife itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness.

Re: All the things COVID-19
In this area, pretty much. So, the famous line is, "Again it is written, thou shalt not tempt/test the Lord your God." That line refefences an older, more specific directive. Apparently some stunningly intelligent people had decided, "Hey, we'll proved that the LoH is with us by putting ourselves in a position where the only happy endings come via blatant divine intervention." The LoH was annoyed and passed down a specific command not to pull that shit again. This situation isn't a perfect analogue but it's close enough that if you believe the LoH is out there and semi-accurately described by Scripture then use of common sense regarding danger should be taken as a standing order from on high.Originally posted by B. de Corbin View PostLife itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness.
