Just think about logistics. Someone pops positive, tells health worker they were at the pink flamingo or whatever two days ago, flamingo needs to be cleared and professionally cleaned.

Seems like people planning on following through with non outdoors or camping vacations anytime soon are in the what if we play without fans stage of blind hope/not thinking it through.

i agree to an extent. the media wants views, clicks, retweets. they focus on big names, panic, death rates/deaths, and "skyrocketing infections", but without googling, how many people even know the symptoms of this disease, the "typical" course it runs, the typical down time, and why don't we report survival rates? the framing the media is doing creates hysteria instead of informing


Basketball podcasters have been more responsible with their coverage than MSM:francis:

I'd be more worried about coming back home and accidentally giving it to my great-grandma or something. :yeshrug:

But I agree, I'm not really personally concerned about catching it.

The fact that we don't have a health care system to adequately administer tests means the numbers are probably higher than reported. Also since symptoms can be mild in younger folk shyt can get passed around unknowingly which can be very dangerous.
