OT: Coronavirus VII: No Unrelated Politics Talk

[Fatass]

Problem is, can’t even get masks for the public right now.



The outbreaks in the Retirement facilities I think have influenced this a lot. But it’s still bad to see.

I read here that the regular medical masks don’t stop the virus; it’s too small. And we need something called an N95. I guess we need boatloads for these better masks.

Calgary McDonald’s employee tests positive for COVID-19

That's not good.

I think a Safeway employee tested positive here in Edmonton, but I think they stopped working at the end of March, so hopefully any potential community spread from that is contained by now.

I’m out here on the left coast. You hearing any reasons for Calgary having so much spread? Is it in the care homes? We had an initial spread that reached 24 care homes, because a few of the younger care aides (who weren’t showing symptoms) were working in several facilities, and unknowingly spreading it. I think those workers are like substitute teachers? They have to work in a lot of facilities to earn enough to make ends meet?

It's more of an international travel hub compared to Edmonton. Plus they've had one huge outbreak at a care home, and another smaller one at another care home.

N95's aren't guaranteed to stop it either, what you'd really want is an N100, R100, P100 respirators.

Full-on radiation hazmat suits essentially.

I made one following Dr Sanjay Gupta’s video out of an Iron Maiden bandana and 2 elastic bands. Simple to make, handle and wash, and no sewing required but I do look like I’m about to rob a 7-11.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

how is this done in grocery stores at the moment?

Have you been to a grocery store?

It's not enforced at all. People still have no clue what the f*** social distancing is.

 

[Dorian2]

How's everyone doing?

I feeeeeeel happy!

I'd love to have one of those right about now. My friend was able to get some of these I believe they're P100 so protects you from something like 99.8% of airborne particles.

I'm always a fan of items that can get more than one use.

I don’t know what those are.

I think N95 is good enough for the grocery store, lol. If someone is coughing directly into your face, they deserve to get slapped anyway.

Halfway measures like that are basically only marginally better than having no measures at all.

Here is a case report of how ONE person spread the virus throughout Chicago:

CDC Report Shows How a Funeral and Birthday Party ‘Super Spread’ COVID-19 in Chicago

It doesn't take a gathering of over 50 people for this virus to spread rapidly.

And how are you going to enforce these regulations? Have police officers in every store, restaurant and bar making sure that people are staying 6 feet apart?

In a grocery store? lol.

Brings a whole new meaning to the term "secret shopper."

Good ol' Ticketmaster.

Always giving validity to the classic saying "f*** TicketMaster and the whore horse they rode in on."

I'm all for discussions and planning about to how re-open regions/states/countries using evidence-based timelines and methods.

Then this team was announced today. I'm sure it was selected based completely on merit and no nepotism was involved.

That looks dirty. Not sure why they're tinged brownish-yellow. They better be cheese dogs.

Derks is making cloth masks locally through their uniform shop. They can be ordered for curbside pickup or delivery

Mine are supposed to be in tomorrow. Don't worry, mine are imaginary since I critique over-consumption (without question) of the MSM and am thus a flat-earther, anti-vaccer, climate change denier, fundamentalist right-wing nutjob.
