Found this today because it is striking. Consider the source, which i do not trust, but look at the numbers of NC colleges. Contrast that to Indiana Univ. which i dropped off my freshman daughter last week. Pre arrival test within the previous 10 days-of course had to be negative. Test the morning of arrival on campus prior to moving into a dorm. those positive were sent home or quarantined. IMO, this falls squarely on state govt.

Yeah, my daughter is also a sophomore at NCSU. She is in an off campus apt. She said that the overwhelming majority of the cases are in the greek system houses. Some other clusters but also said there is no way the aggregate of 500 since March is even close to correct; many times higher than that. Not sure sending on campus students home is the correct answer and if there are a number of positive cases, they are just exporting them back to their families and communities

Glad you got lucky. Hope you didn’t infect anyone else.

You guys really should open a ginger shop or something.
Nah....fda/pharmaceutical companies would just shut it down.

Even though there is a NIH study on ginger extract curing an almost identical lung infection. Simple cure cost $5. They want one that cost $1000’s

How does cow manure relate to Wolfpackers having to pack up and go home?

That might be the most obviously sarcastic thing I've ever posted, but I guess I should have used the magic font so it wouldn't mislead you. My bad.

I have a freshman daughter at State as well... they have until Sept 6 to vacate with all of their belongings. You have to sign up for a time to pick them up... at 30 minute intervals. I don't think I can move her out in 30 minutes. I have a feeling it's going to be crazy.
Wait... the guy above said he had to pick his daughter up off the side of the road. How come his daughter got literally kicked to the curb, while your daughter has two weeks to get her stuff packed? Or... could someone be telling a tale? Surely not!

Curious: How many Russian bot stories about Fauci being room mates with Bill Gates could I find on your Facebook wall? Would “Plan-demic” appear?

If you live in an area where people are all following masking requirements, you're better off than many places in the USA, including where I live. Too many people want to ignore this thing completely and not even do the bare minimum asked of them. That's why things keep getting shut down, the people aren't proving themselves trustworthy enough to do the right things, so it will be forced on them.

Why hug a tree when you can eat a root, right?

Geez Most App grads are smarter than that....Ginger is not a root, it’s a rhizome. But I know that just went straight over your head.

Just vote for your Alzheimer’s patient, wear a mask, and hide under a rock.

We will give you the all clear when it’s OK to come out

I dunno. You say such stupid stuff, it's hard to tell when you are being serious or not.

I just wrote a couple of zingers that I then deleted because I’m sick of everyone trying to own each other on the stupid internet.

The truth is I don’t particularly believe anything you say, and I don’t actually know you. Or maybe I do. Internet anonymity is a tricky thing. I doubt we’d talk to each other like this in person in any case.

There was a time when I thought that was a good idea.

Now, you couldn't pay me enough to be a part of something like that.
