 anjelus | My wife brought up an interesting point a week ago, and that was that here in Socal the population density is theoretically high, but people DRIVE everywhere, as opposed to NYC where they take public transport, breathing each other's air and touching all the same objects. | 15:21:51 |
| anjelus | That + the fact that we started social distancing here 2 weeks ago may be why it's been such a slow burn | 15:22:39 |

| crystalyeah | One of my Facebook friends is an ER nurse at Eisenhower, he just shared this. | 18:08:13 |
| crystalyeah | I agree. Yes we do seem to drive everywhere. I miss being out and about. Some of my friends have said they have gone for drives just to get out of the house. Should be relatively safe. | 18:09:46 |

| crystalyeah | It's really hard for me to read, would anyone be able to give me the jist of what that graph is saying? | 18:21:07 |

| crystalyeah | Supposedly only 173 ventilators available in the county, and projected to be at capacity by April 26th. Also supposedly all hospital beds may be in use by April 22nd. | 00:10:08 |
 @lowkey13:matrix.org | honestly, i do not think it will pass over us easily. i feel that we will hit capacity, possibly exceed. the problem is that more people are going out, the roads have more people on them. they are getting complacient. | 06:55:19 |
| @lowkey13:matrix.org | and when people have masks its a false sense of security. they also need gloves and know how to take them off without contaminating themselves. | 06:55:57 |
| @lowkey13:matrix.org | and i wore a mask at kaiser yesterday. honestly, it was so hot to wear and fogged up my glasses. i decided to get even farther from people and took it off. masks suck, unless you are used to wearing them. im not too hopeful at this point. | 06:57:09 |
| @lowkey13:matrix.org | still not leaving my house unless its a total necessity. told the kids that we will eat every single can of soup and eat peanut butter out of a jar before i buy more food. LOL we have a shit ton of food anyways | 06:58:07 |
| @lowkey13:matrix.org | im trying to get more people in this group, but my people have no idea how the media is hiding important information. | 06:59:41 |
| @lowkey13:matrix.org | let me know if you want to get into the rent strike 2020 room. i am already in | 07:01:51 |
| crystalyeah | Yes, I agree people are getting complacent. I still haven't left the house in forever, except the occasional walk outside. Starting to get cabin fever I think. I imagine others are too, and maybe that is why they are out and about. I think mentally most people are not able to handle being indoors for so long. | 14:31:34 |

| anjelus | I think most people aren't aware that social isolation can be a danger in and of itself. Hopefully this will end soon | 15:35:38 |
| crystalyeah | I don't think it will end soon unfortunately. | 17:06:58 |
| crystalyeah | My brother who works in a grocery store isn't going to work today because he has a sore throat. Ugh, he has some underlying conditions. I hope he didn't get it. | 17:08:11 |
| crystalyeah | He's asking me if I have a spare thermometer. | 17:08:29 |
| crystalyeah | I think more people are realizing that it is not going to end soon, that is why the rest of the school year got cancelled. | 17:10:40 |
| crystalyeah | Yes, social isolation is not good. I imagine that is why some prisoners get put "in the hole" as punishment. | 17:23:56 |
| crystalyeah | Thankfully I have 2 people that live with me, and friends to talk to. I feel bad for anyone who is doing this quarantine alone. Even all the screentime, and phone calls cannot replace in person socialization, hugs, skin to skin contact, and intimacy | 17:27:53 |
| crystalyeah | One is my daughter, so I get lots of hugs. | 17:28:28 |

| @lowkey13:matrix.org | So, what are your thoughts on food shortages? I read that the task force has been discussing it and good possibility that we can have fresh food shortages | 22:28:44 |
| @lowkey13:matrix.org | This appears to be a news story in process, towards the end, it has an update on 4/2. just placed another costco instacart delivery order. offered a $20 cash tip upon delivery, plus $7 through the app. LOL | 22:30:19 |
