All your friends and foes,
they thought they knew ya,
but look who's in your heart now.

i'm having a loving crack ping moment

i'm reading the southern victory series by harry turtledove, it's alt history and the premise is the south winning the civil war. 50 years later the CSA with france and the UK fights USA and Germany and loses WW1, and afterwards a hitler analog takes control of the CSA in the early 30s, with his political party, the Freedom Party, where he talks about making the confederacy great again and all the members shout FREEDOM! at each other. a book published in the early 2000s lol. crack! ping!

lol the study concludes literally none of that and has such banger quotes as

quote:

Virus transmission in this outbreak cannot be explained by droplet transmission alone. Larger respiratory droplets (>5 μm) remain in the air for only a short time and travel only short distances, generally <1 m (2,3). The distances between patient A1 and persons at other tables, especially those at table C, were all >1 m. However, strong airflow from the air conditioner could have propagated droplets from table C to table A, then to table B, and then back to table C (Figure).

and also

quote:

Although the index patient (patient A1) was asymptomatic during the lunch, presymptomatic transmission has been reported (1). Given the incubation periods for family B (Appendix Figure), the most likely scenario is that all 3 family B members were directly infected by patient A1.

Totally normal, nothing to see here. Also the second peak, if anything like the 1918 flu, will kill more than the first and more people will need food

It doesn't but it's saying that covid likely spreads largely through droplet transmission, so wearing masks would help cut down the spread pretty heavily.

No it's not. The Twitter poster is saying that. The paper isn't. The paper is saying it's not sure but restaurants should take precautions like spacing out tables more.

If you cover your drat mouth you'll spread it less

Going to restaurants is going to kill you

Aid Conditioning is directly responsible for spreading droplets further than they would have otherwise

That's all I'm trying to say

Scientists say they can distinguish the sound of a COVID-19 cough.
Researchers with the Embedded Systems Laboratory at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne are developing a diagnostic test on a smartphone app that works by "listening" to the sound of the user's cough.

...

The mobile app has not been developed yet, but volunteers can upload their cough recordings to the project’s website. Users are kept anonymous, but they are asked for permission to save their location, Orlandic says.

It's the only control they have in their lives. It's why the MAGA chuds are freaking out, it's all about losing control because they really don't know what is going to happen. That's the one thing they can control and do to have some sense of being and to feel like they're making "a difference"
