I just got this from a friend:
What a coincidence !!!!
How great is our God … government arranged lockdown from the 26 March 2020 and the Bible verse Isaiah 26:20 says Go home, my people and lock your doors ! Hide yourself for a little while until the Lords’s anger has passed isn’t that amazing ?
And further to this….
The Lord commanded a lockdown during passover in Egypt. when the Angel of death passed over..the Israelites where protected by the blood of the lamb – Thursday the 16th of April is when passover ends .As you all know that’s when our lockdown is lifted . .21 days is the 16th Gods timing’s incredible Wow and we are all protected guys…so we might think it’s not hard to stay home ..but ..its from God.

The Division of Public Welfare, Bureau of Economic Security of the Department of Public Health and Social Services advises participants of its Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) that a fraud alert has been issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).

USDA warns SNAP recipients to be on the lookout for potential scammers using the COVID-19 situation to steal personal information. USDA is issuing this warning after receiving reports of several possible SNAP fraud attempts. Examples of confidential information include social security number, bank information, or a participant’s SNAP EBT card or PIN number. In one potential scam, a website asked SNAP recipients to enter their personal and bank account information to qualify for COVID-related monetary assistance. If SNAP participants are unsure if a request for information is legitimate, USDA advises they contact their local SNAP office. To stay on top of potential scams, please visit USDA’s SNAP scam alert webpage at https://www.fns.usda.gov/snap/scam-alerts.

If you believe you are the victim of identity theft, contact your local police department regarding procedures for filing a report. You may also file a consumer complaint online with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) at https://www.ftc.gov. FTC is the federal agency responsible for protecting consumers from identity theft scams.

2 test positive in CNMI
By Justine Nauta | Posted on Mar 30 2020
Tag: CHCC, CNMI
Share
The novel coronavirus has now reached Saipan, with Esther Muña, the Commonwealth Health Care Corp. chief executive officer, announcing in an emergency press briefing last Saturday evening that the two specimen that were sent to the Guam Public Health Laboratory last March 27 were confirmed positive for COVID-19 on March 28.

“The two confirmed positive cases involve a 42-year-old male and a 49-year-old female,” said Dr. John Tudela, Medical Affairs director of the Commonwealth Health Center.

Both cases are isolated in quarantine at Kanoa Resort in Susupe after they presented symptoms and got tested at CHC last March 26, Tudela said.

CHC has already started contact tracing for the two patients’ most immediate contacts, which include family members, friends, and members of a faith-based organization, where the two had gone.

One individual recently returned from Guam on March 12 and the other individual traveled to Tinian on March 13 and returned to Saipan on March 14. The two individuals stated that they showed symptoms around March 17 and sought care at CHC on March 25 and 26.

Both individuals met the criteria of a “person under investigation” as defined by the Centers for Disease Control and Protection. Their specimens were collected on March 27 and submitted to Guam on the same day.

“Now that we have two [confirmed] positive COVID-19 cases, we are strongly advising all residents to be responsible in practicing good [hand] hygiene, social distancing, and protect our most vulnerable population, including our man’amkos and patients with chronic medical conditions,” said Warren Villagomez, COVID-19 Task Force director.

“Since January, we have done everything to be proactive as a government and implement strict social distancing procedures to keep you, your families, and our man’amko, and our loved ones with pre-existing illnesses safe,” said Gov. Ralph DLG Torres, who also spoke at the press briefing, which was broadcasted live via the Office of the Governor’s social media page.

Andy (not his real name), 60, San Antonio, is not surprised. He already expected positive cases to be here. “If Guam already has more than 20-plus positive cases, Saipan would definitely have one soon but I didn’t expect it to be so fast. I just hope people would take this seriously now, try and stay home and stay clean”, he said.

A Koblerville resident had the same thought, saying people should stop those parties at the beach and stay at home as much as possible to prevent the spread of the virus.

Precautionary measures

In a later interview, Tudela said that they have implemented precautionary measures for employees, volunteers, hospital staff, and those in quarantine at Kanoa Resort, which has been designated as a quarantine site. The Mariana Resort & Spa was also being used as a temporary quarantine site but the Department of Fire and Emergency Medical Services brought those in quarantine there to Kanoa Resort yesterday.

Tudela stated that they have protocols to ensure the safety of everyone who are in quarantine, as well as the first responders.

“We are using PPE [personal protective equipment], and also have designated areas for those who have symptoms that are away from patients/passengers without symptoms,” said Tudela.

Tudela assures that the two individuals are being monitored closely and checked daily, making sure they are stable and don’t need any additional health intervention. There is no reason that the two individuals should be hospitalized, he added.

“I think all of us who are working at Kanoa are really taking a risk. We are the frontline, and that’s why we would like for everyone to do their part,” said Tudela.

In addition, Tudela said that two positive patients that are in isolation do not have any contact with the rest of the people who are currently in quarantine.

“Those that are without symptoms, we have them grouped so that they can do daily stuff, but never in a large group,” said Tudela. Individuals who are in Kanoa are also practicing social distancing—keeping a distance of 6 feet from other people.

According to Tudela, “we have to prepare for the worst.”

“Let us continue to practice social distancing, staying 6 feet apart in public areas, and avoiding contact with our man’amko and our loved ones who have chronic illnesses,” said Torres.

CHCC ventilators

Right now, the Commonwealth Health Center has a total of 86 beds but only 76 beds are available and there are only 17 ventilators. Tudela stated that they will be ordering more ventilation machines.

He stated that Kanoa Resort will remain a quarantine facility to help prevent any more spread or “repress any widespread transmission.”

Guam’s confirmed COVID-19 cases

The Guam Department of Public Health and Social Services tested 23 individuals for COVID-19 yesterday, March 29. One tested positive and 22 tested negative.

Since March 12, a total of 388 test were performed up until last March 28. Guam now has a total of 56 positive COVID-19 cases and 334 negative, and one death.

According to a statement from Joint Information Center in Guam, seven patients have recovered. A total of 48 individuals that were confirmed positive for the virus are currently in isolation. (With Krizel Tuazon)

Coronavirus: Here’s where to find free ebooks and audiobooks while self-isolating
9:20 am EDT March 28, 2020
   

Josh Gad of ‘Frozen’ is hosting online story time for kids stuck at home during the coronavirus outbreak.
HUMANKIND, USA TODAY
Coronavirus has changed the landscape for book lovers, particularly book lovers on a budget. Sure, many bookstores are offering curbside service and online stores have plenty of titles on sale, but the costs can add up for families, many of whom are feeling a financial pinch during this crisis.

Thankfully, there are plenty of options to access free ebooks and audiobooks from retailers, local libraries and other sites. And it appears a lot of people are going this route. According to David Burleigh, a spokesman for the free digital content service OverDrive, “it has never been a busier time for accessing free library ebooks," citing that they have “seen unprecedented demand and setting records for Libby app installs, checkout and new users in the last few weeks.”

Here are options for self-isolating readers who prefer to borrow and not buy:

More: Coronavirus: Free movies, shows, comic books and audiobooks to enjoy while you’re self-quarantining

Online retailers
Some retailers such as Google Books, Amazon Kindle, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Apple Books and Audible are offering a selection of free ebooks if you already have accounts; no memberships are required. But some retailers do require credit card information in order to open an account. Just search for "free books" at each site. The selection is restricted – you won’t find current best-sellers, but it doesn’t hurt to try out a new author or genre.

Libraries
Libraries offer online access even when their physical locations are closed. Some libraries are even giving access to their wifi in their parking lots. Applications such as Libby, by OverDrive, are used by libraries for their digital collections of ebooks and audiobooks. The selection of titles is comprehensive, including classics, best-sellers and everything in between. The only drawback is there may be a waiting list for some of the titles, depending on their popularity.

Don’t have a library card? That’s okay. Through Libby and OverDrive, many libraries are adopting instant digital cards that provide instant access based on your phone number. Currently, about 80 library systems in the U.S. now offer this feature.

More: Jimmy Fallon, Betty White and more celebs read books to kids with online story time

Online collections
There are several sites that offer free access to thousands of titles, such as Project Gutenberg, Open Library, ManyBooks and, in the case of audiobooks, LibriVox. Some require you to create an account, but a credit card is not required. The titles available on these free public sites tend to be older, primarily because the titles they carry are mostly already in the public domain and no longer have copyrights. But as every book worm can tell you, every book is new if you have not read it yet.

MEMBER ROLL CALL!
It’s working

Democrats need to recruit Obama to bench Biden, find another candidate:

March 28, 2020 | 10:14pm

…
It is a given in politics that an incumbent has the advantage until things go wrong, at which point the challenger gets an edge. Then why, amidst panic, death and economic shutdown, is Joe Biden looking like the sick man of 2020?

Biden’s predicament is odd considering a key pillar of Donald Trump’s presidency — record low unemployment — is being vaporized. Thursday’s 3.3 million new unemployment claims wiped out nearly half the jobs created in the last three years, and the worst is yet to come.

Millions upon millions of Americans are fearful about their health and that of their loved ones, and the job losses and stock-market plunges are robbing family nest eggs. In addition, much of the media is slanting their coverage to damage Trump, all of which should be giving Biden a huge boost.

Indeed, my initial assumption was that the former veep caught a lucky break in the timing of the corona­virus outbreak. His winning streak in the last primaries gave him a solid lead over Sen. Bernie Sanders just before the shutdown froze the race and spared Biden added focus on his glaring weaknesses.

Democrats fret as Joe Biden becomes ‘irrelevant’ in coronavirus crisis
At the same time, Trump would be on the hot seat and inevitable missteps would magnify the sense of an out-of-control crisis, damaging if not destroying his re-election chances.

So how did the script get flipped, with Trump rising and Biden shrinking? And what can Dems do about it?

The first answer is fairly obvious: Trump has outperformed expectations as Biden first disappeared, then reappeared in several dreadful performances.

Despite initial reluctance, the president embraced the pandemic as a national threat and is ordering a massive mobilization. He calls himself a “wartime president” and is leading from the front, to a fault on occasion.

His daily briefings demonstrate the hands-on approach Americans expect from a president during an emergency. He’s on the case, and that’s half the battle when stricken citizens need reassurance that somebody is looking out for them.

Biden holds 9-point lead on Trump in new Fox News Poll
Trump made a good choice in tapping Vice President Mike Pence to lead the task force, and the core team is credible and likeable, especially Drs. Anthony Fauci and Deborah Birx. By setting a target date of Easter, April 12, for a partial easing of federal restrictions, the president injected the first ray of optimism in the dreary projections.

Naturally, many on the left refuse to share that optimism, preferring a sky-is-falling pessimism and demanding a national lockdown. Nor are they welcoming signs of bipartisanship, choosing to magnify even slight differences as absolute proof that America remains polarized.

As for the media, their hostility toward Trump for four years has led them to cheerlead for a Biden victory.

In truth, with the virus continuing to spread and deaths rising, all Democrats might benefit from the outbreak. But for now, that looks less likely because Trump is turning the tables.

Polls show the president’s job-approval rising, and his handling of the crisis is getting strong majority support, including 60 percent in a Gallup survey. And that was before he helped push the $2.2 trillion relief bill over the goal line.

Meanwhile, Biden is a shrunken version of the guy who got hot at the right time. After going silent for nearly a week, he emerged in video clips and interviews from the basement of his Delaware home, where he is quarantining himself.

Looking isolated and lapsing into occasional gibberish, he seemed every bit the mentally challenged 77-year-old he was on the worst days of the campaign. Although he did better on a CNN virtual town hall Friday, his tics, such as having a three-point answer to every question, do not inspire confidence that he is capable of being president for four years.

So what can Dems do?

Find another nominee. But first, they must bench Biden, or persuade him to bench himself.

It’s a job for Barack Obama.

The former president remains the most trusted member of his party and is uniquely situated to deliver the bad news to his vice president. In fact, it won’t be a total surprise given that Obama never endorsed Biden, despite making it clear he did not want Sanders, the only other choice, to be the nominee.

Obama could pitch withdrawal as a final public service to country and party. For all we know, members of Biden’s family share the idea and would welcome Obama’s intervention.

The timing is tricky because the remaining primary schedule is in flux, leaving Biden about 800 delegates short of the required majority of 1,991. It is even possible the July convention will be postponed or canceled, creating huge complications around the nomination.

And moving Biden aside makes sense only if there are better alternatives. By my count, there are three.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo is emerging as a favorite of some Dems because of his take-charge approach to the virus. His aggressive style would be a worthy counter to Trump’s and, as a prodigious fundraiser with a legacy name, he would be better than Biden at uniting the party. At 62, he isn’t burdened by age and health issues.

On the downside, the New York model of sky-high taxes and insanely expensive public services would be a hard sell in swing states, as would Cuomo’s foolish ban on fracking and fuel pipelines.

Nancy Pelosi also deserves consideration. The House speaker enjoys huge name recognition, is adept at twisting rich arms and has the requisite personal hatred of Trump. However, she turned 80 last week and her name on the ballot would unite Republicans as well as Dems.

And there is always Hillary Clinton. Insiders say she hasn’t given up despite being a two-time loser, and a rematch of 2016 would galvanize the nation. Her Trump grudge would be the only rationale she would need and might give Dems the turnout they would need.

But first things first. Paging Dr. Obama . . .

Why no reply?
