I know it is a serious matter really but I couldn't resist sharing this :)
I believe it is a transcript of a podcast made by Jonathan Maytham.
Where are we going Piglet?" asked Pooh.
"We need to get supplies," said Piglet. "For the coronavirus"
"Ahh," said Pooh, nodding in understanding. "Things like bread, milk, cough mixture, tissues and cat litter even though we don't have a cat?"
Piglet did a little laugh, and a sort of leap and bit of a cough. "No," said Piglet. "No, those aren't the sort of supplies we need at all! What we need are family sized bags of chocolate buttons, massive Toblerone, jelly babies and Crunchies and a freezer full of stuffed crust pizzas, and all of the Prosecco that we can possibly carry, so that when we get quarantined we won't mind it even slightly. THOSE are supplies."
All of a sudden, Pooh thought that the idea of coronavirus didn't seem quite so bad, and actually, getting quarantined with Piglet and their supplies really didn't sound such a terrible thing after all. "Oh Piglet," said Pooh. "I really do think you are a very wise animal."

These are.... today's cases so far >.>'' If Oregon isn't on the list its because they haven't reported any new cases yet to World-O-Meters.
Which is where I get my numbers from. I make sure to add the time of when I write my updates too my posts too, sometimes I write them before certain states report new numbers. If your curious, yesterday Oregon reported 1 new case. If you know what *today's* numbers are regarding *new* cases *today*, I would be happy to hear. Otherwise I'm not recording total cases in *each* state so far.
I would also like to point out that we didn't even have Covid-19 until December of last year and it was still in China at that point. (I mean I know its an expression but---)
Unfortunately I can't be ontop of the exact number for states, I try but I certainly don't live in Oregon...specifically in your count, and I'm doing this in my own free time. I hope you understand.

I do, but I don't like seeing data not being represented completely. And that's not your fault...that would be the states...and there are a lot of states to track. One person cannot track all that by themselves, its unrealistic. That is what the CDC is for. If I was honest, that's where the data should be coming from but to each their own.
With it being out since this last december, that is still only a couple of months of data, so this virus has really spread.
Best of luck with this, I think, the more information that gets out there the better 100%

I laughed.. but there's one thing you forgot on there....and that's toilet paper...its been insane over here! Warehouses have ran out of TP, and some places now only have the 1 ply! Its been crazy.
Not 100% sure why folks need so much TP for a respiratory illness but...*shrugs*

I try to make sure my updates are as realistic and the numbers are as true as they can be. Thanks, I just decided to maybe help educate some of the folk on Sylestia, since I figured some of this information would be helpful to them...atleast a little bit in their everyday life ^-^''
