We disagree on calling something that is relatively new an absolute and that people taking precautions on the unknown\uncertain\unlikely are 'uneducated'.

My boat is in the shop. Come by my dock and pick me up!

Here’s an interesting summary from a lot of different sources. I think there’s some crossover in the definitions of an airborne virus vs being an aerosol.

We should all form our own conclusions from this but I stand by what I’ve posted. This thing only gets airborne in the most rare of circumstances (certain hospital settings) and wearing a mask in social settings is more to help you not spread your germs or not touch your face. If the Covid 19 hospital rooms test negative for airborne virus than surely Walmart is okay but I wouldn’t fault anyone for wearing a Hazmat suit to Wally World.

Stay safe gang. I’m headed to the lake to self isolate.

Dr Bean,

Go and enjoy, and thank you for all of your advice, much appreciated at these trying times

You will get it unless you are lucky on the first wave. There's always a second wave coming. Instead of arguing with me why don't you listen to the rest of the experts conversation? I'd rather get it when I'm healthy enough to have a fighting chance. That part the fear-mongers keep ignoring.

My point is solid and spot on. You can't hide this out. They're only slowing the spread until enough death beds are available.

But even healthy people end up in the hospital with it and need serious medical care. What happens when otherwise healthy you gets it, and there aren’t enough hospital beds for you to get medical treatment, so they have to turn you away? Do you have a ventilator at home?

140,000+ people have recovered. That's good.

Sorry for being positive.

Do you? You might want to get one to stash in your saferoom. I really don't think you are listening to me. I don't live in fear. I'm not wired that way.

I don't care if I get it now although the gestapo of the OT says if I do I should not receive treatment. How bout dat!
