I read zero hedge almost daily, our economy's underpinnings were in distress already. The FED has been pumping liquidity into the Big Banks for year or so. 100 Billion a month on average, there was even a few days where they pumped that much in a day.
The crazy way this all played out has really caused some long term damage.
I have an old friend, he went from being in line to run the place to being unemployed, the business literally closed up shop.
Another childhood friend that had a development in OB go bust in 09, he has another project in it's early beginning right now. He's still selling lots and building but who knows?
Another friend who's business profits is in the Spring season, now all that is gone.
I can go on and on.

I also know a few folks that died of Covid. I have friends that have friends that have died or been in an ICU for over a month.
Some folks I know have it and has been underwhelming at best.
Have a niece that is positive yet they won't test her husband, unless he runs a fever. Both are quarantined and should be released tomorrow I think. She has been a little tired and ran a fever for a day, other than that nothing.

I don't know if it's different strains, genetics, underlying conditions. It is more deadly than the Flu. How much and so forth is yet to be seen.
Large metropolitan areas appear to be hit harder yet others haven't been.

It definitely doesn't help that the MSM hates Trump and sees this as an opportunity to defeat him.

I feel for those that have lost their livelihoods and those that have lost their lives.

Just wait, the Lawsuits are being filed, that is gonna do a number on businesses too. Many may find it's best to lock the doors to avoid legal action.
