How has the Coronavirus impacted you directly, to this point?

I don't do FB much be being home and bored, I wandered on there yesterday afternoon to find out a good friend of mine lost his father to Covid-19. That hits home and I'm sick to my stomach. This shit is real. You never know who, young or old, it's going to take out next. Call your family and friends and check up on them and tell them that you love them.
 
U.S. braces for record number of jobless claims.

Millions of Americans lost their jobs last week as the coronavirus ripped through the country. And government data released on Thursday morning — on last week’s filings for new claims for unemployment insurance — will provide a partial look at just how many are affected.

Economists expect it to be the highest figure ever.

Last week Goldman Sachs forecast a total of 2.25 million new claims. The Economic Policy Institute, a left-leaning research institute that tracked public reports, has put the number at 3.4 million. And Citigroup economists estimated that it could reach four million.

Anything in that range would be far higher than the existing record — 695,000 new claims — that dates back to 1982.

As staggering as the figure is likely to be, it will still almost certainly understate the problem. Gig workers, independent contractors and the self-employed don’t qualify for unemployment benefits, although the emergency aid package that’s making its way through Congress will broaden eligibility.

The upheaval far surpasses anything seen amid the 2008 financial crisis.

“Where we maybe had eight months to prepare heading into the recession, we had five days to respond to coronavirus,” said Cher Haavind, an official with Colorado’s state office that oversees the filing process.

Just found out my close cousin husband just died from complications brought on by the virus (somehow triggered and exacerbated an existing heart issue that was NOT much of an issue BEFORE)

they have a bunch of kids too.

People BETTER stop playing.

I place ALL this at the feet of so called leadership.

Not trying to hear this aint the time to point fingers either

Please Don't Sleep On This Post

For the past few years I have been taking Pure Oregano (or Oil of Oregano)
It helps strengthen your immune system
Its supposed to be Anti-viral, Anti-bacterial, Anti-Microbial, Anti-Fungal
Since taking it like 6 years ago, I've never gotten sick, never had the flu, never even took a flu shot in years
And I can't even remember the last time I got a simple cold
Someone else on here might know a little more about it

I usually buy 2 different bottles:
The first bottle (with the white twist cap) is 100% pure
www.amazon.com/Oregano-Young-Living-Essential-Certified/dp/B00161FHLO/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=young+living+oregano&qid=1585233654&sr=8-2
So you have to dilute it with water or some kind of virgin olive oil
Because that shit will literally burn your skin
I usually mix a few drops (like 4) with a half cup of warm water or tea
The second bottle (with the black dropper/cap) is already pre-dilluted
www.amazon.com/American-Herb-Spice-Strength-Oregano/dp/B0011G0FHK?ref_=ast_sto_dp&th=1&psc=1
I usually just rub that straight on my skin

Since this coronavirus shit going around
I've been drinking (like 4 or 5 drops) of the 100% pure oregano with warm water, every morning before I go to work
And also using the dropper to rub a little under my nose, to breath it in for a couple hours at work
Then when I get home from work, I do the same exact thing again
In addition to using hand sanitizer & wipes, etc, etc

Again I can't say for sure if this cures corona
But just look into it & do some research
Its been working for me to help fight off colds, and the flu, etc, etc
No Bullshit Fellas.....but this could possibly save someones life

Damn thing burned my tongue so bad, I lost feeling & taste for like a couple days
Learned real quick, you have to mix it with water or tea
 
My truck has been on E for the last two weeks and I'm too lazy to take it to the gas station and fill it up. Have left the house a few times since this shit and always took my wife's car.

Working from home full time has definitely saved us some money, off gas as well as food. It's nice to not have to pay for lunch.

Being able to work both jobs from home while taking naps on the clock has truly been a blessing from Allah who is Master Fard Muhammad to whom all holy praises is due forever. :yes:

I LOVE being paid to schleep, nigga! :D
