Saw on the news a story about using plasma from people who have recovered from COVID-19 being used to treat people who have COVID-19 via transfusion. Well, if that proves to be effective, I guess it would really stink to be a JW! Maybe the governing body would decree that in instances of COVID-19, AND ONLY WITH COVID-19, the whole "no blood" thing would be ignored. Or maybe they will say plasma is a factor of blood that is a matter of conscience.

Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Status Update Thread
by Simon inthis topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.
latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.
the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.

Years ago a talk titled "Responsible Childbearing in the Time of the End" was given at an assembly. I've often wondered if they would ever give a talk called "Responsible Retirement Planning in the Time of the End." I'm extremely thankful that I took a path that includes a great retirement plan which includes retiree health care.

Funny how these in it to the end Dems are dropping out, could this be why?
by JimmyYoung ini am wondering if the dems dropping out who were "in it to the end" are dropping out because of having to shake hands and go into crowds with the corona virus spreading.
hmmm.

I was surprised to see Klobuchar drop out today as tomorrow is Primary day in Minnesota. Then again she had to cancel a campaign event in the Cities over the weekend because of left wing protesters. I'm guessing her internal polling showed a lot of weakness here so she bailed. Her ads are still running on TV (Pete's are also). No refunds on ad buys? I would think she would have donated her ad time to Biden.

specifically, the parts of the world that pollute the least and have the cleanest industries.

Here's a young lady who has been branded the "Anti-Greta" which is a term she dislikes. As mean spirited as some folks think the Right has been to Greta, if Naomi starts to get any traction at all, the Left will attack her with the ferocity of 10.000 rabid dogs. Meet Naomi Seibt:

Why do TV networks keep "bleeping" out Trumps comments and statement?
by RubaDub ini don't understand it.
we have a president who is typically considered a model for what young people want to be when they grow up.
yet, when trump talks, the tv networks keep bleeping out so many of his words, even on fox news.. why?

I agree with Rub a Dub. I hear Trump speaking and I end up thinking it's some rap artist.
