Aren’t reports the optimal solution as opposed to a derail in the thread when some bootlicker comes in here, the thread where we’re posting informative links and discussing:lol:ing at how badly the US has handled this thing, but decides to post trash and purposefully biased and contrarian opinions to get everyone riled up?

Isn’t that the express purpose of reports? Which should lead you to see the offender and probe them to keep them from coming back in here and poking the bee’s nest again.

Hahaha, this is dark. I'm glad the turnout numbers were a bit lower because there's less of these idiots to spread the poo poo around to friends and family in the area.

A thread warn is not a derail, what you are doing is. We are probing when people break forum rules and the rules of this thread.

Content: I am working on monitoring a drug being used for COVID symptoms. My sites are in former hot zones that all have had decreasing counts of COVID+ patients, enough so that they closed the COVID wards. They're all now seeing upticks in hospitalized COVID patients. As of last week, my large regional hospital here in central Florida has a census count 10% higher than the all time high from early May of COVID+ inpatients with about the same amount of rule out observations.

So what you're getting at here is that the drug you're using is causing more COVID

It's important to remember that around 20 people got infected at a Vermont basketball game with 3,000 in attendance in March. Three of them died.

We're almost halfway to that number, only counting the PREP TEAM for the event.

Our governor is generally bad and incompetent on his best day, but the (lack of) COVID-19 response is really going above and beyond.

His Phase 1 (read: Phase 1+2+3) reopening was really a masterpiece of forward thinking and public health. Not that almost anything was ever really closed anyway.

if its possible for you to do this and it affords you some piece of mind I recommend it. with the case count going up chances of catching corona are also going up. it really sucks how long and drawn out all of this is because the fatigue is loving real.

You don't have to get out of the city to just stay inside though. It depends on your hobbies and also I guess how much time you want to spend in a (small?) house with your dad. If you like going on walks/fishing/hunting/idk, then that should be enjoyable. But if you prefer Netflix and videogames or painting figurines or just being alone, then just plan your trips to the grocery store and buy big or get them delivered and then just hole up. You'll still have to get your food from somewhere out in the country, and you won't have the comforts of home.

Every time I feel a breeze from air conditioning in a public space I remember that scene from Outbreak where they look up at the vent and realize it's airborne.
But I'm sure the movie theaters would still be packed if they opened back up tomorrow because gotta keep living your life.

I was thinking about the rampant 'gotta keep livin mah life' ideology and remembered from The Before Times the seemingly millions of people whining about how they wished they could shake things up. It seems like just six months ago people where begging for a mix em up of the daily grind. Yeah sure covids not really the ideal wild card, but its certainly changed everything. Everythings different now, adapt or die. my own drat sister who works in a hospital gave me this spiel after I tried to tell her letting her kids run free in the neighbor hood was probably not the best idea. it hurts

I dare you to call it a perm again..

Ran away from the city in order to camp out at a dead inn, feels very Silent Hill but they are cleaning well. Abbott seems to have at least acknowledged that TX is fuxed without changes this afternoon, not holding hope out there and just keeping the fam safe/pantry stocked.

Talked to my brother who I almost had to :sever: with when parents were in danger of catching covid a couple of weeks in when he doubled down on CHUD. He’s since disconnected from the FOX machine and seems to realize the sort of shitshow we’ve ended up in. I wouldn’t have predicted this in a thousand years and was feeling sad about losing a bro that way.

Not testing the waters with my father yet, might be a lost cause about this poo poo but we at least had a good shared remote Father’s Day; it’s my first. We can talk about it down the road I hope.

Anecdotal but extremely surprising experience from my end I thought I’d share.

A good idea might be to set the cruise control at phase 2 and just coast until a lot of us get sick and better. But I think instead we will bang out the last 2 phases regardless of the spikes.

I live in Quebec and we finally got some number under the 100 and zero death. I am hopeful that things stay that way here for awhile. I am still going to wear a mask, especially since I commute by bus.
