State beginning to limit elective surgeries in...

You have to do them by days of the week. There's an obvious pattern that has emerged ever since the ramp up. That pattern seems to have been modified because of the holiday. 3 low number days followed by a high number day. When it's been two low number days for the majority of the deal. We'll see what the next few days hold for us.

The seven day rolling average of new cases is the best figure to look at as for as the current rate of spread goes. The holiday weekend threw the daily counts off for sure. A LOT of offices were closed starting Thursday. A lot of office types that actually report numbers were certainly off that long or longer.

I’d say the length of time for recovering from covid is a lot shorter than recovering from obesity even if losing at a rapid healthy rate. FOR 99% OF PEOPLE.

It took me about three months to shed 50 lbs. A lot of people are taking that long ort longer with COVID.

It's easy to speak in generalities like that. I guarantee you many many more have recovered in less than 3 months. I know of no one, personally, who has died of this disease (I know plenty have died), but all of the people I know or know of who have contracted it have experienced nothing more severe than the flu, with most being on par with the common cold.

I know that, but it isn't that way for everyone. I know several who have died. I know several more who didn't get over it for a while. A lot of y'all are going to change your tune before this is over.

What has been canceled in those counties' hospitals are elective surgeries/procedures which require inpatient admissions. This doesn't affect outpatient activity.

After some thought what this really means is no new big boobies.

They said you can still do elective procedures that don't require hospitalization, so a lot of plastic surgery stuff could fall into this category.

It’s that way for 99% of the people.
