disagree. there's even several studies linked i've seen before that give at least decent, if small and imperfect, data that good masks could be effective.Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Sat Oct 10, 2020 10:02 amNaahhh masks don’t help.

Liberal elite science. Fauci said we didn’t need a mask early on in the spread. That means masks don’t help and he didn’t know any better.wgdsr wrote: ↑Sat Oct 10, 2020 1:29 pmdisagree. there's even several studies linked i've seen before that give at least decent, if small and imperfect, data that good masks could be effective.Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Sat Oct 10, 2020 10:02 amNaahhh masks don’t help.

Absolutely.

Re: All things Chinese CoronaVirus
We will see where it heads. Most of the spread has been among young people that don’t die at the same rate....we will see if the spread among the general population has a meaningful uptick. Hospitalizations is the number to watch but we are better at treating it. Heard from a friend today that had it back in April. He said it wasn’t too bad for him.

There was a time when one who went to Windows Of The World would not be admitted without a jacket. A jacket would be provided from coat room to anyone who wanted in.
There was, and still is in most situations, a time if one went to certain country club or municipal course for a round of golf in tee shirt and jeans or cargo pants one would have to put on a collared shirt and long pants or regular shorts or purchase from clubhouse same to tee off.
Folk who wanted to participate did it with ne're a word.
It would be grand to see these mask haters on the heart surgeons' table with no one in room wearing a mask for an open heart procedure the hater needs to undergo to live another day, to see if then, they would change their tune.

Yep. Surgeons have a right not to wear a mask too!

WHO dr. walking back lockdowns a bit. Is this a call to “get back to work.....safely”. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.news.c ... 7731c3da74
As Fauci even stated, let’s get the curve flattened, which was done months ago, and the lockdown was indeed to buy us time for PPE and safety for health care workers.

Going back to life pre Covid is not likely for some time. Some industries will be disproportionately impacted. A byproduct of health concerns. Airlines, hotels, vacations, bars & restaurants....rich people’s problems really.

‘What are we so afraid of?’
Tony Green, on dismissing, denying, contracting and spreading the coronavirus
[Story on how he and his partner (storyteller is a gay conservative) hosted a house party of relatives and how the coronavirus spread...]When President Trump got sick, I had this moment of deja vu back to when I first woke up in the hospital. I know what it’s like to be humiliated by this virus. I used to call it the “scamdemic.” I thought it was an overblown media hoax. I made fun of people for wearing masks. I went all the way down the rabbit hole and fell hard on my own sword, so if you want to hate me or blame me, that’s fine. I’m doing plenty of that myself.
The party was my idea. That’s what I can’t get over. Well, I mean, it wasn’t even a party — more like a get-together. There were just six of us, okay? My parents, my partner, and my partner’s parents. We’d been locked down for months at that point in Texas, and the governor had just come out and said small gatherings were probably okay. We’re a close family, and we hadn’t been together in forever. It was finally summer. I thought the worst was behind us. I was like: “Hell, let’s get on with our lives. What are we so afraid of?”
My father-in-law’s probably my best friend. It’s an unconventional relationship. He’s 52, only nine years older than me, and we hit it off right away. He runs a construction company, and I would tag along on his jobs and ride with him around Dallas. I’ve been through a lot in my life — from food stamps to Ferraris and then back again — so I could tell a good story and make him laugh. He builds these 20,000-square-foot custom homes, but he’d been renting his whole life. We decided to go in together on 10 acres outside Dallas, and he was finally getting ready to build his own house. We’d already done the plumbing and gotten streets built on the property. We’d planted 50 pecans and oaks to give the property some shade. He had his blueprints all drawn up. It was all he wanted to talk about.
He was on supplemental oxygen, but the doctors kept reducing the amount he was getting. They thought he was getting better. He was still making jokes, so I wasn’t all that worried. He told me: “They’ve got you upstairs in the Cadillac rooms because you’re White, but all of us Mexicans are still down here in the ER.” I got sent home, and I had a lot of guilt about leaving him there. I called him at the hospital, and I was like: “I’m going to come bust you out Mission Impossible style.” He said he preferred El Chapo style. We were laughing so hard. I hung up, and a few hours later I got a call from my mother-in-law. She was hysterical. She could barely speak. She said one of his lungs had collapsed and the other was filling with fluid. They put him on a ventilator, and he lay there on life support for six or seven weeks. There was never any goodbye. He was just gone. It’s like the world swallowed him up. We could only have 10 people at the funeral, and I didn’t make that list.
I break down sometimes, but mostly I’m empty. Am I glad to be alive? I don’t know. I don’t know how to answer that.
There’s no relief. This virus, I can’t escape it. It’s torn up our family. It’s all over my Facebook. It’s the election. It’s Trump. It’s what I keep thinking about. How many people would have gotten sick if I’d never hosted that weekend? One? Maybe two? The grief comes in waves, but that guilt just sits.

Re: All things Chinese CoronaVirus
Then why are places still not allowing businesses to open, churches to open, arguing for a Zoom debate? It has gotten out of hand. Teachers and schools had summer school but are complaining about full time in school classes but are okay with a couple days a week. It’s turned into a perpetual debilitating state of indecision.Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Sun Oct 11, 2020 1:40 pmI believe folks have been getting back to work safely for some time.
