Latest Coronavirus - Yikes

I get it if your hauling ass mountain biking or road racing, but not when your mom jeans biking around with kids.

Lots of sick folks in big cities with roommates/partners would take a hotel room with free WiFi, three hot delivered meals a day, and a 60 inch TV in a heartbeat over their crappy cramped apartment.

Then offer to put someone up if that's your calling.

I highly doubt the U.S. would adopt isolation in a facility. I am shocked though that many people I see choose not to wear a mask in public places. Sure, people can do what they want. It seems many Americans feel that wearing a mask when you go out is a stigma but in reality, you are providing protection to yourself and others around you.

I dont wear one as a silent flex on scared peasants.

It's worth the risk since a vaccine is probably at least a year away.

We don't know that a person who had the virus can't get sick again next winter.

People need to focus on treatment and control. Vaccine is years away, if ever. These Covid viruses aren't new and have 0 vaccines.

Other than an N95 mask, masks don't protect you they only help protect the sick from spreading it to you.

They provide a minimal degree of protection, which I believe goes up even further if the sick people are wearing masks.

That’s fine but I am required to wear one at the hospital and stick with the same routine when I go to the store.

I take it you're not a millionaire by listening to Trump.

By not listening to Trumo you mean. I got 95% of my Trump content from LG and EL and the various articles posted here.

Unlike some my life doesnt revolve around Trump, in fact my life pretty much revolves around avoiding DC stuff which is why others were on the Amash news before me.

So? We can't continue the current path.

And a helmet when riding a bike. That was ridiculous.

Sure was glad I had a helmet on when some jackass T-boned me with his truck a few years back. Would have 100% been my skull that split open instead of the helmet.

I wonder given the similarities to the flu if the yearly vaccine will just be a crap shoot?

Thank goodness for small miracles.

Knocking on doors and asking to test you in Georgia.


Random, voluntary testing for COVID-19 antibodies starts today in metro neighborhoods

Interesting read from Mayo Clinic about masks.
Can face masks protect against the coronavirus?

No such thing as miracles when you prepare for the worst.

Lol, surprised it was only 8 hours.


It's nickname is "the blaster"

I remember after six hours on the toilet at my house just wanting to go to sleep since I worked a mid shift. It was a terrible dare I accepted that had no tangible reward.

Queue up something better than that please.

[VIDEO=]
Since most of the Nation is stuck at home, I'm thinking TV Party by Black Flag may be a better selection for the current situation.

You strike me as a tucked in cargo shorts guy.

You strike me as a pink tutu guy.

 

[LouderVol]

i didn't know that.

time to check him out.

News got dropped yesterday in one of the 2020 threads. The website is dinky AF right now. Basically just a url place holder with a donation bar.

How. Do you think the virus bounces off the mask or sticks to it?

If it sticks, you're basically munching on it for hours rather than just momentarily walking thru it.

I work for sysco, food distribution so things are still slow. still 50 guys laid off.

Sales Representative? I know Terry Miller and an old timer Gary Goderski. Familiar with either?

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

Ouch. You guys anticipate more work about a week before restaurants reopen? Any internal projections about a return to pre pandemic levels?

May be years before we get back to where we were. Losing too many small restaurants to this. We won’t pick up again until Disney world reopens here in Orlando

Never wore a helmet when I was a kid and I turned out Never wore a helmet when I was a kid and I turned out fine.

I work in the warehouse! Not familiar with the 2 I’m afraid

So far it seems to be more stable but we only have four months of research so I wouldn't bet the farm on any long-term predictions.
