Bleusilences posted:It's because what the mosquito injecting in us is it's own saliva. If the mosquito can contract covid then the saliva is also infected and it becomes a vector. Mozi posted:mosquitos spread blood-borne illnesses when they suck from someone infected and move to someone else, some of the infected person's blood remains on their sucky parts and gets into the new persons body. Good stuff, appreciate the details.

You could make a bioweapon with flies by putting a ton of flies in a room with infected people who are coughing all over food that the flies are also eating and then release the flies.

Meanwhile in the SF Bay area -- I work at Sutter Delta in Antioch and can say as well that the ER has been incredibly slow. Lots of us are being sent home early because there's no patients to see. It's been quite boring the past few weeks to be honest. Because people are staying at home, they're also not getting injured as frequently such as lacerations, broken bones, car accidents, etc. It's shocking how little "emergencies" there actually are when people don't use the ER as a 24 hour clinic.

I wish I worked in any other department of the city so I'd get paid to stay home this month. Instead let's put several people in a work truck and go landscape some bullshit.

The 18 month number was a "lol this is the absolute and utter fastest mad max timeline for maybe having something usable". Usually this poo poo takes 4-7 years.

Louisgod posted:Okay, was on the phone with a friend a bit ago and we were curious if it could be spread by mosquitoes specific to them puncturing one person and moving on to another. Seems like the answer would be yest seeing as how they carry other viruses. No. This is highly unlikely and there is currently zero evidence to even suggest it.

Trainee PornStar posted:Unless you know & get on well personally with your boss, by that I mean go out for beers & stuff, he's probably bullshitting you. Yeah I do know him that well and he's also gone out of his way to make sure I get paid when situations have gone south in the past so I trust him when he says he's trying to get us paid, but I'm also sure that there's going to be lots of people out there who are going to fall through the cracks or get taken advantage of via this badly thought out "Jobkeeper" program. I guess we're lucky that our government is even willing to do this much, I'm sure there's going to be millions of people around the world who are going to be totally hosed when their local economies tank

When mosquitos act as a vector, it’s not because they backwash. It’s because the pathogen is capable of moving through the mosquito’s body and into its salivary glands. HIV is not capable of this trick.
