Wuhan has pretty much gone viral.

Kingfish, it would be an interesting thought experiment to compare Mississippi with more advanced societies like Japan or South Korea, that basically have the virus under control.

Why would you compare a third world shit hole flyover state to an “advanced society?”

Considering this, looks like no college football in Mississippi this fall. Would any of you want to sit in the September heat and be exposed to CV-19?

Since when is Missippi, an advance society?

Can't wait to leave Mississippi. Just waiting on my retirement check. What a bunch of idiots who can't even tolerate a simple facemask. For real, if you could be from anywhere else, it wouldn't be Mississippi, right?

Al Gore invented science deniers from Mississippi.

“Only” Gotcha. Sad to see the day those numbers are considered low. Next two days will be under 500 cases and 10 deaths because of the weekend. Look for numbers on Tuesday (Monday) to be 1,500 cases and 50 deaths. It’s out of control.

7:12 - It's fine... Next week, some people, in some counties, might start wearing masks! Problem solved!

Just read about a lady that was taken to the ER not feeling well. Waited 2 hours out side of the hospital and finally gave up and went home. She got a call the next day saying that she tested positive for the virus 🦠. She was never tested. Somebody is playing with the numbers. Go figure!

Heh, it’s almost like the more we test, the more we find out damned near everyone has been exposed and is immune.

JJ, I read where in NYC they did test on the sewage and concluded that 20% of NYC had already had Covid 19.

Do you know if we are running similar test in Jackson and if not, why not? If so, how often are they testing? And what are those results?

One wonders why all the data collection from the Mississippi State Department of Health is so worthless. Where is the knowledge that we can all use that should come from all their efforts? Sure, it shows that nursing home have been hit. That is a no-brainer. But where is useful information for all their efforts? A computer could pop out with the data that they produce.

By contrast, some public health departments and journalists are now plumbing the data elsewhere and coming up with useful data. Lyndsay Winkley from the San Diego Union Tribune is doing just that. She is posting the sources of outbreaks in San Diego County. Her latest summaries are just what commonsense would dictate but which is going unwritten. Sources of outbreaks: restaurant/bar, restaurant/bar, restaurant/bar (you get the picture, times 16); grocery store; healthcare; gym; resort/spa; business.

There is a roadmap here if you want to avoid COVID.

@8:08, care to post a link to this credible source reporting that?

@8:52, it's almost like you are full of it and you know it. If we are immune, why are the cases higher than ever? Common sense should not the enemy.

A friend of mine (ER Nurse) said that kind of mislabeling happens daily. The nurse said Covid is by all means real and something to be taken very seriously.

But for each covid case a hospital reports, they get "x" amount of money from the Feds.

I have no idea if that's true, but I worked for a state agency that did the same thing with certain
applicants seeking that agency's services.

What's the cliche ?

(follow the money)

I just got back from the gun show at the Coliseum, and was astonished to find that the promoters weren't enforcing a mask requirement. Only about half the people there were wearing masks. I didn't stay long, and it definitely wasn't $9 worth of fun.

12:28: No, the virus is the enemy that steals jobs you dolt, not Dr. Fauci or Dr. Brix. Until we crush the. Until we crush the curve we will not be in a position to save all the jobs. Only a Trump cultivist would blame the effects of the virus on the two Doctors who are saving lives.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.
