I feel like drug companies will be really pissed off if the BCG and nicotine trials prove successful.

No one's going to buy their lovely $12,000 a serve proprietary ebola drug if a 100yo vaccine and chewing bootleg tobacco end up being just as effective.
On the other hand, the market for other stuff like oncology drugs might not do so great if all the old people die.

And one Gettysburg every two and a half to three days. It's kind of funny that we're on track to surpass the Battle of the Bulge one week.

So my utility company sent me a letter saying "Thanks for your interest in reading your own meter! Enclosed is a sheet of paper you need to fill out to read your own meter and return with a stamp as indicated!" even though I requested no such thing and lol if you think I'm going to leave isolation to read a meter and go to the post office during a pandemic

Do you think they'll shut off my gas, or will they just keep estimating

Sweet babby jesus blessed Georgia so much we have a bureau of investigation that (is an independent, statewide agency that supports the state's criminal justice system in the areas of criminal investigations, forensic laboratory services and computerized criminal justice information) AND the georgia state patrol that (supports the efforts of all public safety agencies to reduce criminal activity, apprehend those involved, and respond to natural and manmade disasters) along side other great punishment branches of lawz

the high rate of transmission of Coronavirus is because we don't have a lot of coronavirus floating around human communities

it's not like you get symptomless infection of influenza and suddenly your immune system is going to figure out a better way to fight SARS, no?

All the graphs that get made and distributed are logarithmic so everybody thinks thing are flattening and getting better instead of realizing the scale is changing.

For real, they need to stop using log graphs outside of academic stuff on this, it's fooling people.
