TODD BONZALEZ posted:As soon as she started I was like, describe all the symptoms, and when she did I immediately got into serious advice mode because it sounded exactly like corona :/ she's a tough lady and doesn't take poo poo, so I told her to bring out all get guns for insisting on getting tested. Like she's perfected being an immovable wall as well as being an unstoppable object when it comes to getting poo poo done due to her life experience so I'm confident she can get tested and such did she have a fever? that's usually the most sure symptom

If only there was some sort of warning about how insanely hosed up everything would become. Imagine if we could observe date and act faster. Ah,

GABA ghoul posted:This makes me wonder, is there actually some benefit to warming an infected body part? Like, using a heating lamp to warm a sore throat. I assume at least some bacteria will have a reduced reproduction rate at higher temperatures while your immune system might be much less affected? poo poo like putting a scarf on when you have an inflamed throat is a thing in many cultures. My Wife warmed my pdue last night and there were definitely some benefits

Arsenic Lupin posted:Anthony Fauci, head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), has been pretty forthright. I knew Fauci was at least decent when he was asked if masks help regular healthy people, and he said that they do, but we don't have enough at the moment and health workers need them more. This was when the Surgeon General was tweeting the masks were pointless for people. Also, he shut down the Senator who said "it's just the flu bro"

DC is so hosed. Community case announced yesterday. Have we prepared at all? Of course not because the president might get scared. So it's been here for weeks and tons of people are gonna get sick. We have two international airports and a large proportion of our population travels.

I cancelled a trip I bought with points and they refunded it no hassle. If you paid money and bought after March 1st, cancellation and rebooking is waived. Before then you still have to pay to move/cancel. Hopefully they change that.
