The Fuzzy Hulk posted:This is a fun little thing to watch, it shows Covid deaths vs other types of deaths from January to May. coronavirus posted:What does Maternal deaths mean on that chart? Death during childbirth? Or is this some catholic bullshit Means deaths from complications related to childbirth, miscarriage, or abortion. It's a catch-all to account for the fact that women are much more vulnerable to health issues during a pregnancy and in the six weeks after one.

You know what’s easier and more effective than double lung transplants? Shutting down hairdressers and casinos, but we haven’t a hope of that.

We're still only allowing one person into the store, they have to sanitize their hands before touching things and they can't go past this certain point we set up. All day I constantly have to corral people and repeat the same things. I go to the bathroom for two minutes and when I come out, there's like 8 people in our tiny store, two of them past the please-don't-go-past-here space. "Just browsing!"

My neighbor got forced back to work at IKEA and now probably has the Rona as they had a giant outbreak. Ms Derps seems destine to ignore any good advice and I'm pretty sure is actively trying to get it so I am preparing for death.

Philthy posted:My wife and I are usually the only ones still wearing masks when we go into stores and take out. I dont get the meme of "dummy idiot wearing a mask in their car". Is it not obvious why they leave it on? If you are running multiple errands or have to stop at pharmacy then grocery then post officer or whatever. You don't keep taking your mask on and off every time you get back to your car, making much more chances of infection. You leave it on the entire time you are out and about.

Nah some people keep their mask on while they're driving home. I think they're avoiding touching the mask while they can't wash their hands but it might be any number of reasons.

You don't keep taking your mask on and off every time you get back to your car, making much more chances of infection. You leave it on the entire time you are out and about. This is correct; the idea is that you put the mask on at home or other "clean place" and do not touch or gently caress around with it until you are again at home, or other "clean place". This includes the part where you drive the car to the parking lot of the store, if you need to fetch your car from a public place such as a communal garage or roadside not immediately in front of your house. If you take off the mask inside your car, you should have another clean mask to put on the next time you leave the car because you hosed around with the face-covering part and exposed the face-facing underside to the unclean environment. This at least with the real masks, the cloth ones are just glorified sneeze guards.

I often wonder how some people exist, like what kind of neurons are firing in their cranial cavity? I worked a garden center for a little while, and it never failed, before it opened, I'd be setting up and you'd have people that would push through an emergency exit to get out there. Apparently the main door being locked, and big placards indicating that an alarm would sound if you went through the emergency exit were just a challenge. poo poo would happen at close too. It's dark out and the lights are off, and someone would pull open the main door which was only powered off at that time, to try and buy mulch at 10:00 at night, all the signs indicate we closed at 8:00

boar guy posted:
Yes, and if you brought your purchases inside the car then there also. Also if your AC filter is leaking or you keep your windows down that also makes it "not clean". With "real PPE" the problem is the exposed inside of the mask; in any setting where these things are tracked (ABC contamination sites such as hospitals, chem labs or nuclear power plants) your mask would dive right into waste or decontamination bin just because you took it off somewhere "not specifically cleaned". With cloth masks it really does not matter since that is just a sneeze guard to minimize your impact.

I expect to get it during the next big wave, and leave a cloth mask on my dashboard specifically to wear to protect other people. I don't think there's any saving me, but I can try not to get others sick

It's been shown that CoV2 sterilization is possible at temperatures that the interior of a car will easily reach on a sunny day. It's not reliable, but it may have some effect.

Heat, drying out and UV will easily* do it in a sunny day on a car dashboard on timespan of several hours, yes. Not while driving from home to Walmart to post office to McDonalds to home, especially if you are blasting AC which had the HEPA filter changed last time during the Obama administration.

One friend had virtually all the symptons though, but tested negative. I'm going to put that down as a false result though. Even still, 1? Very few people I know treated this as a hoax or overblown, and it shows that treating it seriously really makes the difference. Obviously you can be careful and get super unlucky, but still. (Obviously a whole bunch could have been asymptomatic and not known, but in likelihood would've spread it and then posted that someone close to them had the 'rona, but I didn't see any of that either).

I have a rotating stock of generic work gloves which I put on when I leave my house, and the next time I take them off is when I am back home, have unloaded my purchases, and can drop them into the laundry bin and wash my hands properly. Now that the weather got hot I switched to using one-time restaurant kitchen-graded plastic gloves which go to the trash bin.

Not too shocking. I live in NYC, in april it was back to back ambulance sirens seven days a week. People took it seriously and now we're one of the few places trending downward hard. Killing 17,000+ people will do that.
