    There's a difference in free market and taking advantage of an emergency situation. The TP hand sanitizer no biggy. But gouging on fuel when people have to evacuate to save thier lives is wrong.

    I agree with you there, I want to be clear, a company doing it is wrong.

    Two of my esteemed doctors offices just emailed me stating that they are deeply afraid of getting infected.

    Closed until virus is over. Which probably will be the rest of the year. That puts about 15 people into permanent unemployment tomorrow morning when they go to Cabot to file.

    That causes me to think two things.

    First. The medical stuff provided by them is finished. For that particular situation.

    Second. What if all doctors close in my life? (Which is about 8 total, minus three as of tongiht, leaving five.) I did gain two new doctors. So Im short one doctor after tonight.

    I have a variety of medical work pending and due to doctors closing the clinic, locking up and going home until 2121 or some future day the virus is destroyed if ever... that just tosses it out the window.

    An interesting situation.

    Maybe I can travel to mexico to have my surgeries there if I lose the rest of the doctors here.

    people have to realize, we have medicine to fight this virus, BUT !!!!! IT TAKES TIME !!! we have to wait to see what works, which calls for around the clock blood testing, this can take some time. We have worked for 4 pharmaceutical companies my wife and I. These are some of the BEST pharma companies in the world.
    Abbott, Baxter, Hospira, Pfizer. They are companies working around the clock to help get through this. And they will. All the Major Pharmceutical compaines are doing the same.
