Somebody please post a good story on your wall. 🙂
As you hear a story unfold, your brain waves actually start to synchronize with those of the storyteller, says Uri Hasson, professor of psychology and neuroscience at Princeton University. When he and his research team recorded the brain activity in two people as one person told a story and the other listened, they found that the greater the listener's comprehension, the more closely the brain wave patterns mirrored those of the storyteller.

The US bailed out EVERYBODY this time... including the big banks.... and days later I read this news:
JPMorgan Chase & Co , the country's largest lender by assets, is raising borrowing standards this week for most new home loans as the bank moves to mitigate lending risk stemming from the novel coronavirus disruption.

Many people seem to act like things will just go back to normal after this Coronavirus. I think we are all in for a rude surprise. Too much supply AND demand destruction has already happened. This won't be just our average "recession".
When small businesses do start opening back up will they call in 50% of their staff at first? What will the other 50% of unemployed employees do in the meantime?
I guess we shall see soon.

Patients need OXYGEN NOT PRESSURE!!! The ventilators are likely causing lung damage because of PRESSURE. 100,000 - 250,000 Americans at risk of lung injury. Change can happen. The time is NOW!! #oxygennotpressure #thetimeisnow

Go to anywhere in the Finder and open a new window within the file system Hit Command+Shift+G to bring up the Go To Folder option and enter the following path: /Library/Desktop Pictures Hit Return and you’ll jump to the Desktop Pictures directory, this is where all default wallpapers in Mac OS X are stored You can browse through the desktop picture folder just like any other directory in the file system, just don’t delete anything in here because it would become unavailable to all users.

Research has shown that a forced domestic life and isolation only spurs domestic violence within the household, considering factors like financial stability and unemployment which are both rising concerns during the pandemic.

https://www.arlingtoncardinal.com/2020/04/abc-news-experts-say-illness-severity-is-virus-dose-dependent-as-doctors-nurses-are-contracting-coronavirus-at-alarming-rate/ Dr. Joshua D. Raninowitz, M.D., Ph.D told ABC News, “When you get exposed to the virus, your immune system immediately starts mounting a response. At the same time the virus starts spreading within the body. An outcome depends on which wins the race, viral spread? or the immune response? When you start with a high dose of virus, it gives it a head start in the race.” Dr Rabinowitz was the NIH Pioneer Award recipient in 2016 and is a researcher and professor at Princeton University (scholar.princeton.edu/rabinowitz).

Did you all see Jared Kushner tell the states that the stockpile was "our"? As in the Federal governments. Incredible.

The MIT release stated that an effective ventilator needs to control for several variables and situations such as failure to expire the previous breath before the ventilator pushes in a new one (auto PEEP). It recognizes the faults of such a simple design using a BVM, but states that while there are many different situations for a ventilator to treat, a mechanically operated BVM can handle the simplest of them in order to free up more advanced ventilators and pairs of hands for less simple patients. The patient under these MIT devices would still need to be monitored by a medical professional, but this would allow several nurses/doctors who would otherwise have to manually ventilate an absolute emergency patient to focus on other things while a single nurse/doctor could monitor these machines

https://e-vent.mit.edu/controls/electrical-hardware/ The researchers emphasize that this is not a project for typical do-it-yourselfers to undertake, since it requires specialized understanding of the clinical-technical interface, and the ability to work in consideration of strict U.S. Food and Drug Administration specifications and guidelines. This is for medical device manufacturers (and maybe other industries with skill in sterile equipment manufacturing, if need dictates) to have a design that can be fabricated more quickly and cheaply than existing designs to get around the current bottlenecks in the supply chain. - Sure, but having a non-sterile non fda approved respirator is probably better than having no respirator.

Turbulent Gas Clouds and Respiratory Pathogen Emissions: Potential Implications for Reducing Transmission of COVID-19 (MIT Analysis) https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2763852 Welp, that 7-8m photo is definitely nightmare fuel, and the video just made it worse. The cloud just hangs in the air at around 20ft.
