Latest Coronavirus - Yikes

[Orange_Vol1321]

My point is that the inconvenience for a given person to wear a mask is infinitesimally tiny compared to the effect that it can have as a group effort. The infections and deaths stopped is huge relative to the nothing annoyance of wearing a mask.

And those that refuse to wear one to "make a statement"? Hard to put into words just how valueless their souls are and what horrible human beings they are.

I’m still shocked that ALL of the fast food workers, grocery clerks, Walmart stockers, Lowe’s fix-it guys and journalists haven’t dropped dead!

And I'm also still waiting on it to run rampant through the homeless population.

Next time you or a loved one has surgery, be sure to regail the physician with your sheetrock/painting story and tell him not to bother wearing a mask since it doesn't work.

A surgical mask is for droplets, not .06 micron virus spheres.

What kind of mask do you wear?

Whatever it is, it isn't helping.

Just shut up and social distance like you're told minion.

Septic was under the impression that surgeons wear biohazard suits during surgery.

There was already 25-35% of the population with natural immunity.

asymptomatic ≠ natural immunity

asymptomatic ≠ natural immunity

That’s why I didn’t use the term asymptomatic.

Did you just start grocery shopping when coronavirus hit? Grocery store idiocy has been around for ages and knows no age, race, gender, or political affiliation. You may just be noticing it now, because the masks draw more attention. Of course, if you're the guy blocking the whole aisle while blankly staring at the baked beans for 5 minutes you may deserve it (not saying you are).

My point is these people are taking the time to cosplay as Outbreak extras but when it comes to getting up in people's business they're not worried about that.

The link you posted doesn't say anything about "natural immunity," if such a thing actually exists.

My point is that the grocery store is, and always has been, a no-holds-barred arena of chaos. And now I'm starting to think you may be the guy blocking the entire aisle while staring blankly at the baked beans.

Here’s a better written article on the subject. Basically, the early models were trash. There was already 25-35% of the population with natural immunity. Based on antibody tests, the actual death rate is similar to the annual flu.

Much better.... the article I posted was all over the place

I’ve got to draw the line with clowns wearing them while biking, driving convertibles, walking outdoors and other ridiculous places. There was an Asian family coming out on to the beach the other day and every one of them were geared up. I couldn’t resist and while I was getting my flip flops on I started hacking and clearing my throat.

Wait, wut, they don't?

Also known as innate immunity (as opposed to acquired immunity). May not be mentioned in the linked article. But I believe many of the asymptomatic cases would be a subset of the people with innate immunity.

I don't care what your views on the 'Rona are, that's a really cool and funny story.

The distinction I'm making is that someone asymptomatic would still carry and spread the virus, whereas someone who is truly immune would not.

I would like to see the side by side of CV deaths vs. shooting deaths in Chicago during this time. The media keep talking about how much of a threat CV is to the black community. I wouldn’t be too surprised if the black community has been more of a threat to itself in Chicago at this time than CV.

Oxford coronavirus vaccine 'does not stop infection', experts warn

Not sure if this is true or not, but assuming it is, this is exactly why we can't take the sheer genius approach of "stay safe, stay home" until there's a vaccine. There may never be a vaccine. That's a reality that some need to wake up to.
