We can see definite virus decreases across most of the world
world cases – 4,285,185
world deaths – 288,152
world recovered – 1,543,860
USA cases – 1,387,407
USA deaths – 81,909
All original hot areas are way down – Italy, Spain, UK, France, USA
But 2 still surging late – Russia and Brazil
Sweden modifying their lackadaisical approach with many deaths in elderly communities
USA way down – only 1k deaths yesterday
NY only 191 deaths
All other states are in double digit deaths except MA
45+ states have now started reopening.
We did see the largest 1 month unemployment since the great depression – ADP reported 20M unemployment claims for April 2020
The unemployment rate is now 14%
I have officially moved to my new company – fingers crossed and many late nights ahead – need to get a new client soon
The kids are happy – Ais is stressed – will move to her company’s healthcare soon – more expensive than before but better than cobra
We cut the cord yesterday with DirecTV – paying way too much for TV when streaming services can now provide same content for much less
Let’s hope the reopening helps everyone – jobs going, business going, stocks going
Once we get a vaccine, we will be all set but that won’t be until next year – until then we will wear masks everywhere
