It's interesting that white bread is among that range of comestibles once labeled "refined foods" that now bear the label "processed foods."
"Refined" and "processed" are synonymous terms for all practical purposes but different in their aesthetic associations, with the former associated with a sort of gentility to which the latter cannot aspire. Seems to follow the declining reputation of white bread as a food for the affluent.
EDIT: Sorry for the off-topic post, folks.

Really hard to say though as lockdowns dates, and compliance, varied widely - here in Bay Area we had “stay at home” March 16 so have more confidence we are (at least for first wave) than say S Dakota who have never had one.

Yeah, it's a concern that the lockdown strategy is being questioned by the Executive and now out on the streets. The fact that it's an election year is going to exacerbate it all.Some of the modeling predicted the peak on April 15th although a much higher number.

Still not the end all be all trial, but....
Think we can stick a fork in this 1, yet to see anything good about it, of course it could just be a case of getting the right dosage or sticking something else in with it, but it doesnt look the answer so far.
Was a bit of a flag that Trump had stopped promoting it at every recent press conference.
Real pity though, would have been nice to have something currently available that worked.
Your supposed to be serving it not drinking it !

Boston to philly corridor probably peaked. Don't think we've peaked in the DC/Baltimore metro area yet.
Don't know what's going to happen in Florida, Texas, Georgia and some midwest states. Way too early to tell.
Our infectious disease specialist today was wondering if we are using it too late. It does have good in vitro activity so theoretically should do better than it has shown.
Common problem....a potentially dangerous medication so patients have to be pretty sick to warrant trying it when you don’t know if it is going to work.
There's still hope for Remdesivir
