Hadn't been out in over two weeks but had to go to Lowes for parts, they were almost business as usual as far as customer numbers, roughly 50% of the people in the store wearing mask, men and women, but not a single Hispanic with one on.

Free drive through testing is available here.

Please God, let Utah and most states follow Georgia's lead immediately. End this catastrophic Shawshank Mitigation tomorrow.

Balze, is there a single page of this thread where I won't find at least one post from you? Why don't you take it a bit easy? This is affecting all of us.

You must have hundreds of posts in this thread. A four hundred page thread and you seem to be on every page. It would be OK for a page or two to go by without feeling the need to respond. Just slow down, please.

Question:
How much is it costing the Feds to produce and air the multiple PSAs extolling coronavirus.gov? They are never ending! And often run back to back.
Enough already!

Understood.

President Trump ad re Pelosi

https://youtu.be/s7DKYML2MRs

Friend I used to carpool to high school with has it now. She is a nurse in Baltimore. Apparently she isn’t doing well. I haven’t seen her in a while but both my wife and I hung out with her extensively in high school

One of the employees I had to lay off went to the ER with fever and cough. She tested positive for flu so they didn’t test her for covid, which I think was a mistake but I guess we will see

Wow.
This thing spreads like wildfire where you have people in close quarters. Prisons, nursing homes, cruise ships, aircraft carriers... wherever you have people in close quarters.

As of Sunday, a single prison in central Ohio has more positive cases of COVID-19 than any county in the state. With a shocking 1,828 positive tests among its inmate population of 2,500, the Marion Correctional Institution has more cases than Cuyahoga County (Cleveland), Franklin County (Columbus) and Hamilton County (Cincinnati).

More than 100 prison staffers have also tested positive for the virus there, which means that all told, Marion accounts for more than 17 percent of Ohio's total caseload.

Forgive me chellim1 but this story like so many others tells us little to nothing of value. Testing positive means nothing. How many show symptoms, how many have been hospitalized, and how many have died? Those numbers complete the picture. 'If' ~70% are asymptomatic or relatively unaffected, the picture changes dramatically.

Once again, Kurt hits a homerun. An excellent read and right on target. They Can’t Stop Us from Re-Opening America

-- Excerpt --

We’re going to see a rush back to freedom. What’s going to happen is conservative states are going to start opening up and they’re going to start opening up soon. Then people in fascist nightmare states like California and New York are going to look over at Texas and North Dakota and the rest of free America that lies outside of the future People's Republic and wonder why the hell they are still getting yelled at for going to the beach. Pretty soon it’ll be an avalanche as people demand to re-open. And then the stock market is going to soar and unemployment is going to come down and we’re going to put this nightmare behind us. And Trump will get re-elected, which they fear more than any virus.

And once this ends, it’s time to reevaluate. It’s time to reevaluate all the science people who couldn’t make an accurate model to save their or our lives. It’s time to reevaluate all the globalist jerks who sold us out to China – hi Hoover Biden! And it’s time to reevaluate all the Lil’ Himmlers who enjoyed this all way too much.

But first we’ve got to re-open America, and that’s going to happen faster than you think.

Indiana is to re-open May 1st.

There was previously posted a link to a very recent DHS study of COVID-19.

One point from the study:

Sunlight reduced infectious virus to undetectable levels after just 3 minutes of exposure to the solar equivalent of midday sun on a sunny day in the middle latitudes of the U.S.

the science behind how sunlight kills the virus is fairly well established, says Arthur Anderson, former director of the Office of Human Use and Ethics at the United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases at Fort Detrick, Md.

“[Ultraviolet] light breaks DNA into fragments. If the virus is floating around in the air and there’s bright sunlight, the UV component in sunlight will break the DNA or the RNA into pieces,”

That is evidently true of the Ebola virus, but that article leaves some doubt about the validity of the specific claim. What it does make clear, of course, is that things are still being learned about the virus and disease. It will be interesting to follow because it may relate to the reports that COVID-19 is worse for men in general. That’s more likely due to other obvious factors, but time will hopefully tell.

There is so much dreck in this thread that it’s hard to determine what’s worthwhile reading. If you know the link, can you post it here?

I researched the sunlight thing not too long ago, and most of the discussion I found was completely dismissive of the idea that it could inactivate viruses, or at least this one. That seemed odd at the time, but if the above report is true that would be important to know (for me, anyway). As I’ve mentioned before, one thing about living where I do is that most days are sunny and the UV level is higher than at lower altitudes.

Added: I should have searched the Internet first before asking for the link. "DHS COVID-19 sunlight" produced beaucoup hits. But thanks again.
