Major Fast Food Chain Takes Burgers Off Menu in Many Locations Over Meat Shortages

Sadly this will get people's attention faster than their grocery store running out.

I know my Kroger has been limiting to one item per type of meat. Or least posting signs about it.

Food shortages are happening regardless of the media.

How many of these food workers are staying home because they are really sick and how many are staying home because of fear?

I’ve seen that video extremely telling.

Where are the Doctors who support him politically? Shouldn't they be singing the praises of h-oxy it it actually worked? Or maybe there aren't any.

Well I'm pretty sure I've seen some of them on Fox News singing the praises of HCQ.

With that said - I still think the media got this wrong. Every treatment for CV was "unproven" and they acted like Trump was committing murder to say he was hopeful it would help.

There was nothing political about what Trump said, yet they took it and ran with it.

States with best CFR

South Dakota. 0.88%
Utah. 1.03 %
WY. 1.16%
NE. 1.27%
TN. 1.65%

TN is literally doing a kick ass job given the states we are grouped with. Low populations in massive land size.

Worst states

MI. 9.41% (gretchen sucks)
CT. 8.6%
NY. 7.63%
LA. 7.05%
IN. 6.30 %


So is this just a result of these states doing terrible testing? Terrible Healthcare? Mislabeling deaths?

After seeing that NYC nurse video the other day, the care quality sounded third world

how many are staying home because they are getting paid to stay home rather than cut meat in a cold ass meat locker ?

Sooooo freakin stupid. Heard Lindsey was looking to fix it though...holding my breath.

You forgot 1 option, an extra $600 in unemployment.

Northeast hospitals are known as sh*tholes...NYC, Pennsylvania, etc.. In the large cities, they are basically meat factories propped up by reputation from the 1870s.

We went the other night and they were out of regular sized burgers.

Fear of disease or the government?

What is a regular sized? Thought they only had one size, albeit single double triple.

Single size is regular size. They have jr. burgers.

I think these are definitely interesting results. I'm still not totally settled in my thinking on this.

Tennessee has just been a testing machine, so that helps. Also, and I don't know why, it has just seemed like TN has fared better. Don't quite understand.

New Jersey is right there at 6.2% as well.

As for the worst states - I don't think it is a result of terrible testing, though Michigan lags here. So that could be some of it.

Basically if your outbreak started in February and you were densely populated - this thing ran. LA had Mardis Gras which ended up just being at a horrible time. Also Ash Wednesday services had a lot of touching - have we seen if highly Catholic areas have higher outbreaks?

The lockdowns worked to push R(t) below 1 or near 1 and slow/plateau/drop the active case count. But some places had run so much further ahead than others that the death wave ended up being very different. Tennessee wouldn't have been immune - but it was going to take longer.

I'll be out later this morning. I'll stop by Wendy's to see if I can get a Dave's Single Cheeseburger combo.

Make it a double. Might be your last for awhile.

But regardless of your area, I dont think we've seen deaths due to overburdened systems. So while your totals should be higher if you're a hot spot, or you got hit first, or whatever, it shouldnt throw your percentage that out of whack.
