Sadly it is instant termination, loss of insurance and forfeiture of unemployment benefits to refuse work in Michigan.

Well she would never refuse to work she is the sweetest person who truly cares, the patient who was positive for the virus was on her ward whilst she was doing the night shift.
The protective equipment was not efficient enough to deal with the virus, she’s been very poorly this last week along with two other nurses

No implications and many levels of gratitude. Just stating the sad facts we all should open our eyes to. Best wishes to you and yours.
I'm so sorry.

I kind of agree with that with regards to healthcare workers. When you decide to work in the healthcare industry you know you are going to be dealing with sick people and be exposed to various things. If everyone just stopped going to work because they were worried about getting sick our hospital system would collapse. I have nothing but the greatest gratitude for those that have risked their own health to help others. These people are real heroes. I know that word get used too often but in this case the healthcare workers that have been working double shifts and risking their own health are heroes in my book. I'm dismayed by the lack of assistance they've recieved. We should all applaud them.
I haven't been sick and hope that I don't get sick. But to any healthcare workers that read this post All I can do is say a big THANK YOU.

People want to work here. No employers are making it safe to. And the laws are penalizing the exploited who would otherwise already have been there by denying benefits for not offering their life or their family members for $10/hr.

It's just messed up mathematically. 0.06% tested, 88% positive, less than 10% exposure to population. Govt. estimates. More like 70-80% exposed and non medical mutation. Confused and wary. Bad combo. Once again stay positive and do what you can.

Very interesting covid map of PA.
After it loads in, you can click on bottom from default county setting to zip code to see positive and negative tests.
You'd think every state would have this somewhere.
You can blow up map to see a smaller area and touch every town to see the current covid test status. It's kind of frightening to see positives in virtually every town.
A little trivia:
Kittanning is where Mothman Prophicies was shot.
Tiny little town.
More trivia:
New Kensington was once the home of the 9th biggest mafia operation in the United States according to the FBI in the 1960's. 3 guys from that outfit were busted at the 1957 Apalachin, NY famous mafia meeting. The local Godfather never was convicted of anything.
That crew was investigated over the years from everything to running guns to Cuba out of a tiny local airstrip to the JFK assassination. Guilty and not guilty, btw. Lol.

I keep seeing all over my Facebook feed, posts of restaurants giving police free food with captions saying stuff like "Thanking our 1st responders!" etc. What exactly in the fuck have police done throughout this mess? I'm totally for giving nurses and the like food and discounts and shit. But police have done fuckall beyond what they normally do. /End rant

Hey.
Today I saw a Highway Patrol Charger manning a speed trap solo. Alone. By him/herself. These cats always operate in pairs. Their sacrifice in these trying times is real.
