@Mik said in Asymptomatic Transmission, the Achilles’ Heel of Current Strategies to Control Covid-19: What worries me is lingering, possibly permanent, health problems in otherwise recovered patients. Yeah, I'm with you. We could recover from it, and then have our later years completely messed up by the thing.

In Brazil apparently they call it The Hitler.

For you and I, of course. Others may not be as experienced with serving up revenge.

She tries.

Interesting My tenuous connection is that my paternal grandfather came to the US on the RMS Carpathia, the ship that rescued the survivors, albeit not on the same voyage.

@jon-nyc wow

Pretty cool!

Sounds like it's a good time to unload some houses...

The last time I heard someone from the CDC he said to wear a mask UNLESS you are able to stay 6 feet away from people. I don't wear one either, but that's partly because I haven't seen any for sale yet.

I was actually hoping for indecent participation.

Sounds very good! Far more sophisticated than what I usually do with pork steaks.

This one was my favorite. Luxe parking. I had very variable parking demand because I didn’t have my own car. https://www.google.com/amp/s/mobile.reuters.com/article/amp/idUSKCN1BN134 I think they got something like $60M before they figured out you can’t charge $50 bucks for something that normally goes for $500

@QuantumIvory said in My bitch about masks.: FWIW... https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/news-perspective/2020/04/commentary-masks-all-covid-19-not-based-sound-data Data lacking to recommend broad mask use We do not recommend requiring the general public who do not have symptoms of COVID-19-like illness to routinely wear cloth or surgical masks because: There is no scientific evidence they are effective in reducing the risk of SARS-CoV-2 transmission Their use may result in those wearing the masks to relax other distancing efforts because they have a sense of protection We need to preserve the supply of surgical masks for at-risk healthcare workers. Sweeping mask recommendations—as many have proposed—will not reduce SARS-CoV-2 transmission, as evidenced by the widespread practice of wearing such masks in Hubei province, China, before and during its mass COVID-19 transmission experience earlier this year. Our review of relevant studies indicates that cloth masks will be ineffective at preventing SARS-CoV-2 transmission, whether worn as source control or as PPE. Well yeah this data would be handy wouldn't it.
