Best bet? Don't go near people unless you have to. And, even then, as far away as possible. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My station at work allowed no 6 foot buffer...which is why I insisted on leaving/working from home.

Me_ Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 So basically, it’s not “airborn” but it’s “aerosol”, which means it travels on micro water drops with the winds around us. It would explain why people get sick on cruise ships humidity and central air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I explained why I feel it’s not. regardless I would be more than willing to try friendship with him in the real world. thats the thing I’m used to discussing anything with people who disagree with me. I don’t take it personal. Sometimes that’s comes with heat. But if you have respect it can be very beneficial to disagree and as result maybe learn something. Disagreeing forces one to be sharp and thoughtful. before all this I used to sit at a poker table every second Friday. Age range 20-65. Core group of 8 with some stragglers. One guy is Iranian. One guy is a white newfy married to an Iranian woman. And one guy has no joke worn a MAGA hat to the table. The conversations are amazing. People get into it. People get heated. Then we all just deal the cards and come back for more in two weeks. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spur1 Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 I watched a documentary last night called 1918 Spanish Flu historical documentary. (I would link but I have no idea how). Very interesting and had a lot of similarities to today. Anyways I asked my aunt today if my grandpa had ever talked about it as he was in the WW1 trenches at the time. Not sure who he was fighting with or for which side as he was Polish ( something to google and learn). She told me the only story he told about it was that when he got sick he thought he was done as there were few survivors so he drank a quart of motor oil to speed up the process and get it over with. Miraculously he survived. He swore up and down that the oil saved him instead of killing him. I can’t help but wonder if the oil was hemp oil as it was in common use at that time especially in that area. Whatever the case here I am. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh FFS. They do not mean "nothing" and even the sources you posted didn't say this. There is a limitation between nothing and something. The worst thing about you posting your cute blog posts is that you seem to not be intelligent enough to understand them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then we all just deal the cards and come back for more in two weeks. You keep saying this, but you don't really have much of a discussion. You just post and run away and then when somebody responds to you, you say "that's an opinion" and go back to spamming the same thing. You act like you are interested in discussion but you don't show any interest in stepping down from your original position that 95% of experts are wrong and the one's that say we shouldn't limit freedoms are right. The conversation is far more nuanced than this. Yes, we have a definitive problem. No, we don't know the scope. The models and graphs don't mean "nothing", they mean something, but they also carry limitations and you have to account for those limitations when making conclusions. Just like literally every empirical paper that has been published up to this point in time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
