Platystemon posted:Was he wrong? About the backfire? Consequences are still to be seen, and I share your hopeful disposition about ever seeing them down the road. By backfire I meant that by not taking it seriously and encouraging their idiot followers to not take it seriously either they killed a decent number of their own supporters, as well as allowing it to become endemic. I would be shocked if the difference in a few close election races weren't tipped one way or the other because of covid killing people on top of the panicked organizing by dems.

Facebook Aunt posted:Looks like mouth breathers will have the last laugh. Save your brain, plug your nose. Completely serious question/comment It seems like it would be very easy to have some something you can jam up your two nostril holes like those compressible styrofoam earplugs that act as a filter and plug your nose. Now you only have one main hole you have to worry about, your mouth, and it's behind a mask. I would loving buy these Some smart goon go for it and invent these and just give me a tiny little bit like a gratuity. Thank you very much

You can’t put any effective filter in the nostrils. There just isn’t enough surface area.

I got a 3M full-face mask, but I can’t get it to pass seal testing. Inhaling with the intakes covered is fine, exhaling with the output covered doesn’t create any pressure and just causes a buzzing noise.

This is why I'm glad I work at a place where you can't even get through the front door without a mask. I just do the lords work when running errands and loudly call out people who aren't wearing one right. Oddly enough in the chicagoland area its quite rare.

A few different groups are currently doing in-person clinical trials about whether iota/kappa-Carrageenan nasal sprays are effective in preventing or lessening covid. In the UK you can get it in over the counter cold/flu sprays (that specific one is the one Swansea University are using in their study) - I assume there's equivalents in other countries. Here's a previous cell-culture study on it - https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.08.19.225854v1.full.pdf

Inhaling with the intakes covered is fine, exhaling with the output covered doesn’t create any pressure and just causes a buzzing noise. I have a 3M half-face respirator like this: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/3m/6300/6827699. I covered the front valve with multiple layers of tissue + a paper towel secured around the circular bit with rubber bands. Covering the valve makes exhaling noticeably harder but not impossible, and the seal doesn't break. I can't even smell Febreze or meat that's being charred when I'm wearing it. And I have a pretty big nose such that no other mask I've tried forms a decent seal.

I seem to be leaking air on the exhale only for some reason. Could be a bad valve on one of the filter inlets if the inhaling test works. Nowhere else for the air to go, really. I'd imagine if so you could either replace it or just not worry about it since at that point you'd just be breathing back out through your filter.

In my case the leaking point is near The column of Morgagni if that helps.

The vaccine turns you into an alligator, and alligators cannot catch corona.

norton I posted:The vaccines are selling for $50 to $80 which is extraordinary cheap compared to everything else hospitals need to deal with this. they aren't that much. I believe Moderna is $20 a dose (some reports say $30). Astrazeneca plans to charge cost, $3 a dose. Novavax is going to produce 2B doses and an analyst said they will have around 3.5 to 4B in revenue, which seems way too low since they will be charging more than $2 per dose.

Gotta optimize that discoverability! But also, depending on swab depth I do think that might be more comfortable than the nasal brain-scrape swabbing.
