    @Aqua-Letifer said in 120 cases and 15 deaths from a single case - in a hospital!:

    It's been 2-3 months of social distancing and suggested-but-not-mandatory PPE use in public. Try to hang tough.

    Pandemics usually last 12-36 months, that's a lot of hanging.

    Of course I'm not sure the word usual makes sense in this context.

    I think the suggested-but-not-mandatory routine will last as long as it offers some political advantage.

    Hang tough.

    @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.

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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    I think they got something like $60M before they figured out you can’t charge $50 bucks for something that normally goes for $500
