Hell we cant even say where the virus comes from. Doctors in France are now saying they think they were treating patients with COVID months before China had its outbreak.

Oh dear God, you are really start to sound as bad as some of the MAGAs. We already knew about social distancing. We knew that in 1918. We know nothing more about masks now than 3 months ago. They help some, if worn right and by everyone, but as for the coronavirus we don't know enough yet about masking up. Do it, yes, because it can't hurt and can only help. Nothing new there. We have always known the elderly are more susceptible to complications from respiratory diseases. We actually don't know the life of a virus on any surface. Some guesses, yes, but 3 months ago we had guesses. We have no clue as to the actual fatality rate because we have zero clue as to how many people have actually been infected. As for what drugs are not working, this is ridiculous because there are 1000s of drugs and we already knew most were proscribed. The key is finding one that we know has some effectiveness, and we're not there. So I just blew your entire post out of the water. Delete yours and I'll delete mine so you won't look incredibly foolish.

So, we knew the hydro was not a fix? Um, check yourself there. There was a brief moment where that was a possibility. And we do know ranges of half-lifes on surfaces. The mask thing has been dissected enough where it won't hurt, agreed, but it's not like that sweet etsy mask you bought is better than an N95. It may (MAY) not be effective at all. Too many variables in how you wear it, the material, if you decided to take it off for a few seconds then put it back on without sanitizing, etc.

They didn’t- they tested positive the next day

CA has banned all large gatherings. This church and it’s morons defied the order. People blatantly disobeyed and now are spreading it by going to a non essential service.

So they can burn.

Gotcha, I agree. Thank you for the info.

Yep...like the barber who got it after defying NYs order.

These people think they are safe...then they get it and want us to forget they got it by not doing the right thing.

I mentioned it on Twitter, this (for the older folks) is like the first cases of AIDS. We didn't know what hit us. We had no idea what the hell this virus really is. We're trying to do the best we can (well, let me clarify: most governors are).

It is nothing like the first case of AIDS. AIDS was ignored as "gay cancer" until it spread among young, previously healthy straight people. And even then, those folks were accused of promiscuity, bringing it upon themselves, etc.

The only similarity to HIV was the fact that there was a lot of misinformation about it going around, and the perception of invincibility by a large portion of the public.

MNS gets it.

It was something that we had never seen before, didn't know how to treat it, didn't know the source of it (officially), etc etc etc.

And the GOP was in charge underfunding agencies like the CDC so they couldnt even run labs well enough to find the retrovirus. Reagan and his cult of Evangelicals are responsible for the death of MILLIONS.

Some counties have kept the shut down (I heard Madison's county kept it). I'm worried about the MN border-hoppers.

I saw a dummy from high school tagged himself at some bar just across the border last night.

Ugh. I like that stuff is re-opening, that's no secret, but there is a right way and a wrong way to do it. WI is doing it the wrong way. And this is not a WI bias talking.

You missed the point about drugs, it isn't about what drugs don't work, it is about what drug will, and truth is, most people knew trumps fish tank cleaner was a non-starter as soon as he uttered the words. Your statement about masks in this post proves the point I was making, there are so many variables we don't know more now than we did 3 months ago. And you are flat out wrong about us knowing how long this virus really lives on any surface because again, too many variables. In laboratory conditions we can estimate it as 4 hours on one surface, 24 on another, or many days on still another. But factor in sunlight, varying degrees of temperature and humidity, even the wind on surfaces outside and you really don't know if it will live for 4 hours on that picnic table in the park or 4 days.

Re: Covfefe-19 Part 9: Shelter In Place is Temporary, but Wu-Tang is Forever

Well, it's spreading like crazy!!!!!!!! In certain spots. Particular spots.

Um, no kidding. It's also NOT spreading at all in certain spots. Particular spots.

So, overall, the spread, with the info we have, is slowing down. It's obviously still not good, but it's better than a month ago.

Get it?

You eliminate NY and NJ, and it's increasing by 17%/week.

At one time, it wasn't spreading at all in NYC. Until it was. Why didn't we stop it before it started spreading?

 

[rufus]

Re: Covfefe-19 Part 9: Shelter In Place is Temporary, but Wu-Tang is Forever

Pretty sure we know some things. 3 months ago we knew nothing. That's the point that is trying to be made.

No. Three months ago we knew a lot, too. We just didn't do anything. Sat on our asses, cause the virus wasn't spreading in most places. Just like you're saying now, it isn't spreading in places. The key word is.........yet.

And if its there, and you don't know it, how do you stop it from spreading?

Dane County (Madison) and a dozen other counties have issued various orders of their own. My county appears to have issued an order very similar to the one Governor Evers issued originally.
