Costco will require all customers and employees to wear masks or other face coverings starting May 4, to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Since nearly every place that might stock N95 masks are "Out of Stock" will Costco be handing them out at the door? No, and N95's are not required. Just a Mask that cover's the Nose and Mouth.

I don't think so since I think it is expected that people can don their home spun masks.

Personal weapons are what raised mankind out of the mud, and the rifle is the queen of personal weapons. The possession of a good rifle, as well as the skill to use it well, truly makes a man the monarch of all he surveys. It realizes the ancient dream of the Jovian thunderbolt, and as such it is the embodiment of personal power. For this reason it exercises a curious influence over the minds of most men, and in its best examples it constitutes an object of affection unmatched by any other inanimate object.

The American Academy of Emergency Medicine (AAEM) and the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) jointly and emphatically condemn the recent opinions released by Dr. Daniel Erickson and Dr. Artin Massihi. These reckless and untested musings do not speak for medical society and are inconsistent with current science and epidemiology regarding COVID-19. As owners of local urgent care clinics, it appears these two individuals are releasing biased, non-peer reviewed data to advance their personal financial interests without regard for the public’s health.
COVID-19 misinformation is widespread and dangerous. Members of AAEM and ACEP are first-hand witnesses to the human toll that COVID-19 is taking on our communities. AAEM and ACEP strongly advise against using any statements of Drs. Erickson and Massihi as a basis for policy and decision making.

This is my personal take from Inslee's broadcast on the COVID data: According to the charts, we can re-open when the R is O, but maybe 1, and the number of infections a day is under 200, which it is, until it isn't. And these numbers are all for King County, the rest of the State doesn't matter. And this chart shows we are on track to open by 2045, until you hug your grandmother, then... zombies. I have no clue what I just watched...

I have no clue what I just watched... I was listening on the radio, so didn't get the benefit of the spiffy charts and diagrams Reporters have been asking what the metrics for reopening are for weeks. Lord Guv'na beat his bush and wouldn't say. So today he finally throws something out and just sounded like an idiot trying to justify bad decisions with graphs and zero understanding of what's behind them Follow the science? I bet the only thing he can follow is a bright light like a moth

Here is the translation from Pete von Reichbauer King County Councilmember Quote: Today, Governor Inslee announced that the Stay Home, Stay Healthy order will be extended past May 4th. More details on the phases that things will open back up will be announced on Friday. To see the statewide data that Governor Inslee and his team rely on to make these decisions, you can visit www.coronavirus.wa.gov. The Governor also announced additional guidance for allowing elective, non-urgent medical procedures. You can read more in the Seattle Times here.

As I was watching the governor speak, I kept seeing Sleepy Joe's face flash in and out. Who was really talking? Has anyone asked if the gov is a contender for VP? He could be, right? All of his charts that I could see, showed that we are past the peak. Yet, even with all of this data, he cannot even commit to a re-open date? He also threatened to arrest people on Rattlesnake Ridge when asked about folks who were allegedly visiting there.

We Asked All 50 States About Their Contact Tracing Capacity. Here's What We Learnedhttps://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2020/04/28/846736937/we-asked-all-50-states-about-their-contact-tracing-capacity-heres-what-we-learneQuote: States are eager to open up and get people back to work, but how do they do that without risking new coronavirus flare-ups? Public health leaders widely agree that communities need to ramp up capacity to test, trace and isolate. The idea behind this public health mantra is simple: Keep the virus in check by having teams of public health workers — epidemiologists, nurses, trained citizens — identify new positive cases, track down their contacts and help both the sick person and those who were exposed isolate themselves. Washington does not meet estimated need for contact tracing. CURRENT STAFFING LEVEL: 700 PLANNED HIRES: 800 PROJECTED TOTAL AFTER HIRES PER 100K RESIDENTS: 19.7 Estimated need innonemergencysituations: 15 Estimated need forCOVID-19: 30
