Truth.
When I was flying back and forth between Iraq and Afghanistan I had to be weighed with all my gear!!!! Don't recall any penalty, probably more to get an accurate load tally for the Cargo Planes we were loaded into.

Airlines estimate that you weight X and your luggage weighs Y per carry on and Z per checked bag and the loadmaster uses that (along with the sold seats list) to decide where to put the baggage in the hold.

I'm 68. Anyone older remembers they hardly ever closed school. It would be snowing like crazy and we'd have the radio on, rejoicing when they announced our school was closed. Most of the time busses would have chains on.
Now it's 2020. We live in very litigious times. A kid gets sick at school, later confirmed to be Covid-19 and all **** breaks loose. Everyone gets sued...parents, principal, superintendent, list goes on.
At work someone goes in sick, others get it, everyone "responsible who could have should have prevented it" gets sued.
From the President on down, everyone must take it seriously or mayors, employers, etc. could be sued.
Haven't heard this on the news...but possible?

No test needed here.
If you are sick stay home.
if you have difficulty breathing, chest pains, stop urinating, or organ failure go to the hospital. If tested positive and can't breath hope a ventilator will help, if not, adios. What else do you expect from the medical society that has no cure and only gives a flu vaccine for last years flu?

America has never been a health based country. Look at the death statistics and live birth rate numbers, Oh! and now let's throw in Opioid related deaths... We are a Nation h3ll bent on killing itself, and now we are panicked by a virus that might kill a few million.

Since it can be spread BEFORE symptoms should EVERYONE stay home so they don't get sued. Then this really is the end of the world as we know it because people are scared of being sued. So that's how it all ends.

The only thing making this virus bad is the panic and hysteria fed by the fake news.

Don't buy into it.
