More food shortages.
Trump executive order didn't stop meat plant closures. Seven more shut in the past week.

No signs of a meat shortage in grocery stores yet -- despite all the panic raised by pundits who want to re-open.
Maybe all these re-open supporters can take jobs at these meat processing plants to replace the 70% of staff who are out sick with COVID-19.

current crop of americans do not have any idea what was handed to them on a silver platter.
maybe a denizen of one of the more despotic locales of the world could risk the brownshirts and enlighten us on how much fun it is to dwell in the bottom 90% demographic under the thumb. or what it is like to dwell in the top 0.01 percent of the same despotic locale. bet they are different?
Well that didnt end to well for d08.

‘More Americans could lose their lives to deaths of despair, deaths due to drug, alcohol, and suicide, if we do not do something immediately’
In addition to more than 75,000 deaths in the U.S. from COVID-19, the growing epidemic of “deaths of despair” in the U.S. is also increasing due to the pandemic — and another 75,000 more people will likely die from drug or alcohol misuse and suicide, according to new research released by Well Being Trust and the Robert Graham Center for Policy Studies in Family Medicine and Primary Care.
As of Saturday, 8.7 million people had been tested in the U.S. for SARS-CoV-2. There were 1,283,929 confirmed cases in the U.S., and 78,746 deaths, of which nearly 26,563 were in New York state, the epicenter of the pandemic in the U.S., and 57,180 recovered. Worldwide, there were 4,020,878 confirmed cases and 279,007 deaths, according to Johns Hopkins University.
Projections of additional “deaths of despair” range from 27,644, assuming a quick economic recovery and the smallest impact from unemployment, to 154,037, assuming a slow recovery and the greatest impact from unemployment. “We can prevent these deaths by taking meaningful and comprehensive action as a nation,” the researchers wrote in the “deaths of despair” report published Friday.
“More Americans could lose their lives to deaths of despair, deaths due to drug, alcohol, and suicide, if we do not do something immediately,” the report said. “Deaths of despair have been on the rise for the last decade, and in the context of COVID-19, deaths of despair should be seen as the epidemic within the pandemic.”
and not a single death from starvation was seen that day.
Just conjecture and guesses ..no different than the projected guesses on total COVID deaths. The article says "could" "likely" with only a guess
With what we know about the Corona Virus, winds disperse the viruses which renders them on the outside less likely, to harm you. That is why closing parks and beaches make absolutely no sense. Now, we also, know the extreme heat of the sun kills the Corona Virus. Nobody has thought of it so far. I would think enclosed facilities should seriously consider studying the intake and outtake valves of their buildings and make sure lots of fresh air is pumped in, at the same time, stale air inside with germs and viruses is pumped out of the facility. Of course, it will cost businesses more to add more intake and outtake valves, maybe, ultraviolet light too to kill viruses. It would be a one time cost that businesses can write off their taxes. Hospitals, casinos, cruise ships, airliners, box stores, grocery stores, restaurants, meat packing plants, etc. are huge incubators of germs and viruses. That is the reality. Stale, dirty air filled with germs and viruses are just being circulated by the airconditioning systems putting a lot of people at risk. If you can somehow, clean the air we breath, the risk of Corona Virus can be lessened and people can go back to work.
Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

Abstract
The H1N1 "Spanish flu" outbreak of 1918-1919 was the most devastating pandemic on record, killing between 50 million and 100 million people. Should the next influenza pandemic prove equally virulent, there could be more than 300 million deaths globally. The conventional view is that little could have been done to prevent the H1N1 virus from spreading or to treat those infected; however, there is evidence to the contrary. Records from an "open-air" hospital in Boston, Massachusetts, suggest that some patients and staff were spared the worst of the outbreak. A combination of fresh air, sunlight, scrupulous standards of hygiene, and reusable face masks appears to have substantially reduced deaths among some patients and infections among medical staff. We argue that temporary hospitals should be a priority in emergency planning. Equally, other measures adopted during the 1918 pandemic merit more attention than they currently receive.
