(+) Yeah! (+)

Good idea. We're posting in-store and to our closed groups on Facebook about it today. I don't think most people will mind, but we do have some Vanguard and Weiss Schwarz players who are going to hate the idea of showering.

It should be a rule regardless of this situation.

Remember when I was at MLGs Old Spice was a sponsor and handing out free deodorant and still 25% of the people there stunk.

Iran and Italy are both showing a 3% CFR if you believe their numbers.

We have a policy already in place, but we're cracking down even further. It currently is a body odor policy, but if we spy people wiping their noses without kleenexes, sneezing openly, etc., we're going to really start taking aim at that.

Well, that's a bit more ridiculous. I would be banned during allergy season just because I get hay fever.

---

Yeah, that policy seems fine to me. It's frustrating as all hell to everybody else already and shit like that should be cracked down on. It's the only way to improve the scene really.

Yes, but until you have hay fever, you will never understand how ridiculous it is.

I wear a mask at work, more so to avoid pollen than from a hygiene standpoint, but once I get pollen in my system regardless of the mask I am done.

I have used entire rolls of paper towels in just a 8 hour shift without the mask and had my nose chafed red from wiping.

Hay fever is a total bitch.

---

I've already stocked up on tissues too, just in case.

But that sucks.

---

Speaking of which I am probably fucked this allergy season if everyone is panic buying masks.

---

I think the storeowner just wants to avoid any potential fallout. My contribution to this whole affair was already the body odor banning from the past and the hand sanitizer (we're setting up bottles at every table starting tomorrow).

---

*shrug*. I could see letting people know if they are ill or have allergies to bring a mask, but then again they are probably all sold out due to panic buying so who knows.

man, Iran's government.
according to buzzfeed, 1 in 10 MPs there has tested positive for the coronavirus.

that's a goddamn government revolution.

Case in Wake County North Carolina. Also a question if Pence got infected meeting a student whose classmate has the virus.

I haven't read the topic yet, so I don't know if this was already posted, but I felt the need to put it here:

I guess that's a funny meme, but not really because coronavirus can be asymptomatic

Global rate isn't surprising; the US and Europe should be less but Africa and the middle East will be significantly worse.

Italy Iran and Wuhan have the highest CFRs

Wow, thats awesome. I played it safer with Verizon, hoping to sell in a few days.

The next thing Im looking at is the company manufacturing the test kits for CoV-19.


---

Found it - GNMK.

Currently at 4.50/share with experts thinking it could rise t to 9 and as high as 18/share.

I mean teach me penny stocks
I am just a swing trader on regular stocks

Anyway I tried your INO
Bought at 9.15 which was just near the peak in a massive rush
Then it crashed almost to 8.50
I sweated like mad
But waited anyway
Sold at 9.30
$200 profit

This is small money, but emotionally I am not fit for penny stocks so I am satisified with this

This is swing trading too, but with very affordable stocks so it's easier to buy in large quantites without breaking the bank. The primary goal is to beat out what a saving account will return on interest - so these are great.

I'm no expert but with the coronavirus there obviously presents an opportunity - a company will come out with the vaccine first and whichever one does will skyrocket. The big ones to keep an eye on are: INO, NVAX, and MRNA. So you could hedge your bets and put money in all three. Then sell off and put all your money on the one that does - potentially. Like gambling, only go with what you'd be comfortable with losing.

---

Vaccine wouldn't be out for like 18 months. And doubtful ino would be the one to get it out based in their past.

Japanese and Chinese are testing with plasma. But, no one knows how they could possibly get enough plasma to make it viable.

---

I'm in it for the long haul.

---

So which stock should I put $25k in?

Arcade near my house is closed now too. First they take my basketball, now they take my games?? Those are my two favorite things!

---

Lol Mzero. The struggle is real.

how will you ever play Taiko now

Israel update time!
It's interesting to note that every country has it's own stories, ways they deal with the virus, and tragedies. You don't hear it by just following BNONewsroom and getting the cases/deaths count

So our infected number rose to 15. One man that came back from Italy was the manager of a toys store
He infected two more people - one of his workers and a customer, a 15 years old kid

This kid's entire school was cancelled today. To make things worse, he also visited a soccer game a few days ago.
Which made the Ministry of Health ask for everyone that were in the Stadium Gallery he was at to self-quarntine
So a few people in my work were asked to leave during working house...panic ensued

And now because of this shit more soccer games are about to be cancelled. Some of them will go as planned, but without an audience.
Also, Purim is coming soon. And many cities confirmed they are going to cancel Adloyada (think of it as a few street-wide cosplay carnival)
So..fantastic

This only kills the elderly, infants, or people with weak immune systems...

in the cosmic scope of things we all have pretty weak immune systems

I would be more worried if I had a child or ailing parent.

I used to work in a nursing home, I've seen colds literally kill elderly residents that I'm sure would barely make me miss work

---

washington's got 9 deaths because a nursing home got it, so yeah. that's who's getting wrecked.

yes, any kind of easily transmittable cold/flu in a nursing home will always be bad and possibly lead to death.

The kill rate of corona is low and you probably will just get a 'cold' unless your immune system is compromised aka youre old and frail.
