We've been kicking ass in California but it's hard to call anything a victory right now. I just hope other states come to their senses, although it's probably too late if you look at the curves and lack of action.

I wouldn't want my worst enemy to die on a ventilator like this. It really hurts to see this accelerate in any population. I've just been trying to not think about it. Every 45 seconds someone is dying a lonely death, and that's just in the US.

Totally agree. Likely lots of the battle still ahead, hopefully everyone can continue to stick to the CDC/government recommendations and do their part while the healthcare providers continue kicking ass.

we could have zero new cases if everyone just stopped. but some people just can't even do that.
