Only one infected person speaking into the microphone and then it’s on Trump’s hands, Pence’s hands, and several others, and spread by handshakes as well.  Fauci seemed to have avoided touching it, unless I missed it.  

 

 

You missed it, Fauci reached for and lowered the mic (he's a short dude.)

This just in:  The White House is rumored to have sinks, soap, and running water.  (And Fauci is probably aware of what many other medical specialists have noted:  COVID-19 appears to be mostly an airborne spread, not surface.  But washing hands can't hurt and the latest estimates are that CV can last on surfaces for up to 3 days (down from the initial estimate of up to 9 days, but again all these estimates are preliminary results from various studies.)

Touching the mic is an unfortunate contradictory non-verbal message, and very useful for snarks, but it isn't the end of the world.

    Against my better judgment and several beers deep, I have taken you up on this, potentially ending my streak of totally worthless posts. I have done 3 and 7 day averages only on the Worldometer data.

Imagine telling your employer that you've been exposed to people who've tested positive for coronavirus and you avoid getting tested and shake hands with a bunch of people around the office. 

Now imagine your CEO doing it. 

Can you imagine people at your job taking things less seriously if your top leader is completely disregarding basic best practices and precautions?

This is why I'm making such a big deal about it. It makes reasonable people reasonably believe there's nothing to worry about. Which is not what the very serious experts are saying. 

This isn't political. I'm not mentioning parties or policies or any of that. This is about getting people to be fully engaged and doing everything they can to flatten the curve, including making the public take things more seriously. 

The fact that that's the only way you can interpret what I'm saying says more about you than me, my dude.

Just negged everyone of these stupid fucking posts. God damn fuck you and Junior Miller and every other fucking Cloak Room shitheel that cannot help themselves and has to come here on this thread and run their fucking mouths because they don't think the echo chamber of the Cloak Room is a big enough podium for their bullshit. WE DON'T WANT TO READ YOUR POLITICAL LEANING BULLSHIT. 

I've learned a lot from following this thread. I've never even seen some posters on this site until this thread and they have a shit ton of posts. You clowns have to be one big circle jerk ring in the Cloak Room. I wish every one of your boring, bawling, whiny asses could be negged back into Shaggy and then be forced to ogle scatporn for the rest of this election cycle. 

 

If I could rep you more I would.  CR idiots stick together and infect other threads like cancer.

I don't have a link right now because I'm on mobile but NYT has a model where you can adjust the degree of intervention and when it starts. It has the peak roughly in July, though it obviously moves based on user inputs.

cool, but the question was specific and concrete.  how much hardware do we have?  in numbers, not words.

I'm ready to form a counter cabal on this site. Who are all of the idiots over there pulling this kind of non-stop bullshit? Surely there's a larger group of us than them. I've decided I'm just going to start negging any post I see that even vaguely hints at more "deeeeeeeeeeeererrrrrrrrrrrrr orange man deerrrrrrrrrrrrrppppp" stupid shit sentiment. It's fucking insipid.

At that point, you just tear down the fence in between properties and enclose both houses. Eminent domain.

the number of people in ancient apartments in ancient buildings with ancient plumbing i believe will eventually be identified as a contributing factor to the italian numbers.

Comal ISD extended Spring Break. Surprisingly there were people trying to keep it open for events and shit.

I'm personally looking forward to seeing this nationally, which has been live in Colorado for a couple days now.  I wonder how long the federal initiative will take to spin up and when we'll start to see them in action?  I am sure it will suck at the start, the one in Denver is overwhelmed now, but they should get it smoothed out eventually.

That's a really good point.  I could definitely see that as a contributing factor.

fecal shedding through shared plumbing is also a probable contributing factor in wuhan.  this was reported in the hong kong press.  not for the age of buildings but because of the "shitty" quality of the plumbing and the fact that the residents do their own plumbing when they remodel.

The fruit and vegetable section at my local grocery store.  The meat section was just as bad.  This is in Ashburn, VA.

WH/35 seedy although I’ve always wanted to stop at that liquor store NB 35 coming into downtown that is off to the right of the 45/75 split.

Well to be fair grabbing produce that you can eat and cook at your house for a couple of weeks makes a lot more sense than bottled water when the taps will still work and buying enough toilet paper to last your family for a year.

Bottled waters super cheap. What’s your problem with that?
