Funny I was at lunch today and there was a family that was a little ghetto. Kids all over the place and bumping into other customers without a care. Father yelling at them and cussing about life. Upset on the governor and mayor using racist terms for both. LOL. He then went on a rant how the wife was going to have to deal with the kids in the weeks to come because the school system was going to close down and they would have to deal with their kids. LOL

It’s official The world has gone to hell in a hand basket.

I know that many of us have watched the evolving news of the coronavirus with concern. The guidance from local public health, and from the California Department of Public Health and California Department of Education, continues to be that closing schools is premature. That being said, we have received updated guidance regarding measures we can take to better assure the safety of our students and staff. Please note that these measures are precautionary, as we have no indication at the present time that there are any active cases of coronavirus in our community.

The provided guidance is as follows:

Large gatherings that include 250 people or more should be postponed or canceled. This guidance does not apply to activities such as attendance at regular school classes, work, or essential services.

Smaller gatherings held in venues that do not allow social distancing of 6 feet per person should be postponed or canceled. This includes gatherings in crowded auditoriums, rooms, or other venues.

A “gathering” is any event or convening that brings together people in a single room or single space at the same time, such as an auditorium, stadium, arena, large conference room, meeting hall, cafeteria, or any other indoor or outdoor space.

Based on this guidance, as of 8:00 am on Friday, March 13, 2020, and at least through the end of March 2020, Carlsbad Unified School District is immediately suspending all large gatherings that include 250 people or more, including music performances. We will determine at a future date whether or not any of the suspended events can be rescheduled. We will also determine at a future date whether or not we will extend this guidance into the month of April.

At Magnolia Elementary, the events listed below will be cancelled until further notice:


At this time, all regularly scheduled after school programs (i.e. art, chess, etc.), as well as our Kids Care program, will remain open and operating as usual. In addition, we will update families about the status of events scheduled for April and beyond (such as Open House) as we receive updated guidance.

Given this new guidance we are also encouraging teachers to hold upcoming parent/teacher conferences either by phone or through video conference (ie. Facetime). Teachers will reach out directly to families to discuss potential options. At this time we do not plan to make any changes to the established schedule for our conferences.

Lastly, we will temporarily be restricting access to campus for ALL non-essential volunteers and visitors. Though we appreciate greatly the impact our volunteers have on our school community and classroom environment, we will be asking parents and other volunteers to remain off-campus until further notice. While families are still welcome to come to campus for pick-up and drop-off, we will be suspending the use of volunteers during the school day.

As we have seen this week, this continues to be a rapidly changing situation. In the days and weeks ahead we will continue to update you about changes at Magnolia Elementary. If you have any questions or concerns in the meantime, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us here at the school.

Sincerely,


Aaron Nelson
Principal, Magnolia Elementary

I think you are wrong on this Dave. Maybe in a few weeks after they figure out how to deliver online lessons in some form or another. I'm not sure how they think parents will be in a position to adjust to that. Having to suddenly stay home with school age kids really would shut down every industry.
I hope that I am.. just what I was told from a person that works in the office of a High ranking government official.

Friend at the cdc in California. They said they will announce tomorrow

CDC is Federal and each state is driving decisions as needed.
In CA, the following are driving the decisions = local public health, California Department of Public Health and California Department of Education. All state as of 4pm PST closing schools is premature, unless a diagnosed patient is documented in the school district

Ok fucktards, not to be the over paranoid prepper type, but tomorrow night I'm doing a Cali run...
As much as I joke about sealing the border...I don't want to have to get all East German on my way back.
Don't sweat it? Load extra mags?

From our Board attorneys: It is also possible that the Governor will sign another executive order within the next few days that essentially closes all public schools for one to four weeks...there's nothing for you guys to do, just letting you know where it looks like we're headed. I'll keep you posted.

There are plenty of online educational programs already in use. Our daughter in law is an online teacher for a NorCal school district that offers it to Home school parents and students.

The SoCal high school we are involved with also has a full tilt on line curriculum.

Don’t be surprised if the airlines shutdown tomorrow.
Southwest just cancelled a bunch of half empty flights, and loaded them on my plane, going to Phoenix. Still not full, but those getting rerouted to Phoenix are wondering what’s going on.

it could get worse.

I just finished an 8 hour shift at ONT and we (SWA) cancelled zero flights this evening.

I heard there’s something like 100,000 ICU beds in the US. The reason for all the closures, crowd control etc is to slow the virus down so the hospitals can keep up. Obviously there’s no way to stop the spread. They’re just trying to control the amount of people that have it at one time. Italy’s high mortality rate is because they can’t treat everyone at the same time. It spread too fast. Let’s all hope and trust their plan works. [emoji106].

They don’t have a choice. We are heading to a full national lock down if Italy and Norway are any examples of what is gonna happen.

desert storm ain’t happening either as well. And it’s not the choice of the people that run it or the city

One of the head Italian doctors said they need to kick all the old people out of the hospital beds and stop treatment on them because it’s a lost cause


now think about that that

That is some world war 2 battle field triage kinda shit. Hard pill to swallow

Definitely load extra mags. I usually just carry the one loaded mag in my CCW, but as of last couple days, carrying an extra in a pocket and few more in the truck. And as of today, even tagging along is the AR just in case I get caught in a riot out of the blue 😆 since things are changing by the minute! Ohh, I’m definitely not the paranoid type either, but living in Comifornia, never Know.

Safe travels!

Welp...if this country has to shutdown for two weeks, then so be it. However, I believe that there will be more deaths from cirrhosis than virus because ima jus gonna drink the whole time and prolly others will too. Like, 327 million others. I imagine there would also be another baby boom because peeps jus gonna stay at home and drink and fuck.

Why is this not believable? Ohio and Maryland did it.

60% of the state is hourly wage earners and can’t afford day care. And if you believe what all the Dem leadership in the state says are 1 paycheck away from homelessness. These people can’t work from home.

They could close all the schools, but there will be fallout from it most likely.

Ok. Is everyone in Ohio saving money and working salary? It’s going to be a shit show for sure, but It’s coming. People are morons. They don’t save, and they don’t prepare...that’s why you have this panic.

It's going to get better. Supply chain can't keep up. Next week I bet that markets start closing.

We have more people living in poverty here in CA than anywhere in the country.. do the math. They can’t afford to panic anyway.

I’m not saying it can’t happen, but we’ll see.

This is probably going to go down as the stupidest event of my lifetime, unless we do it again in 2 years.

Sanity and preparation are all a mater of perspective. I always travel with a bugout bag. That is usually more to get home, grid down, fuel stoppages...zombie apocalypse...more geared to "Surviverman" than "Walking Dead"...
Maybe I'll load a couple "utilitarian items" into the car hauler. Better to have and not need, than need and not have.
Little stuff, like a compass and a canteen ;)

Here is a question I have. It is a what would you do.

We are in Sarasota Florida. We were suppose to leave here April 11 and head to my moms place on the east coast of Florida for Easter. On the 13th we are suppose to head to Jacksonville NC to see our son and grand baby for a few days. Both places we will be staying in hotels. After seeing them we head to our house in Tennessee.

Up until yesterday we were thinking this was going to blow over pretty quick and haven't worried about it. Then we went to get dog food and couldn't even find the kind our dogs eat. Just a basic brand, true instinct by perina. Then we went over to the TP isle and there wasn't very much.

So here is where we need to make a decision.

1) Stay in Sarasota until this is over? Nothing stopping us from staying here. However, there are a lot more people here than in Tennessee where our house is. Only about 600 in our town and 10k in the nearest "big" town.

2) Continue with our scheduled plans.

3) Head straight to Tennessee and stock up on food as much as we can?

Not a prepper just not sure what is the best thing to do. The hotels kinda worry me the most. What say you?

The local bums here are using up all their WIC and Lonestar Card money buying toilet paper and water. They were in line after midnight waiting on the truck to deliver TP to our local H-E-B at 6am.

My skepticism grows.....now being reported OVER HALF of the confirmed cases on that first cruise ship showed no signs or symptoms at all. Really starting to look like if you are otherwise healthy you may not even get sick let alone die.

No offense but even if the death rate is 3%... that has been exactly the case from the beginning.

The dead people in Italy have an AVERAGE age of 80.

I believe the average is in the 70s here. I'm sure the exact number has changed in the last day though.

I'm still not worried about the virus, only 65 cases here. But if it does hit, my area is not prepared to deal with it. Currently our hospital that serves 1.4million people, only has 8 ICU beds. I'm a little concerned for my mother, her COPD and age, makes this virus deadly.
