But a short-wave spectrum called UV-C is much more dangerous to all genetic material. It’s a germicide, which means it can kill up to 99.99 per cent of bacteria and viruses. The UV-C emitted by the sun is stopped by the ozone layer, so we aren’t directly exposed to it. That’s a good thing because our fragile skin and eyes couldn’t handle it.

When produced artificially, UV-C breaks up the genetic material of the pathogens floating in air or water and sticking to surfaces so that they cannot function or reproduce.

“All bacteria and viruses tested to date (many hundreds over the years, including other coronaviruses) respond to UV disinfection,” according to theInternational Ultraviolet Association (IUVA). “Some organisms are more susceptible to UV-C disinfection than others, but all tested so far do respond at the appropriate doses.”

This is the kind of stuff that muddies the waters. I heard an account from someone recently that they won't go shopping in their own neighborhood in Great Neck because they see a large Iranian Jewish community there that seems to refuse to wear masks and has an ongoing outbreak (the person is also Jewish, and I have known them for many years and am sure this description of things is not coming from a place of prejudice).

Using an old photo like that means there could be trouble actually addressing real pockets of problems that exist. I also have no idea if the reason they won't wear the mask is actually cultural or religious or just the same as why so many other people don't wear them and influence each other over it. Even though NY consistently votes blue on the federal level, we have plenty of Trump supporters and people who don't want to wear their masks.

Yeah I'm back on Team Sweden now.

It's one thing when you can achieve a nation-wide elimination strategy like New Zealand, it's another when you isolate and skullfuck the economy of one quarter of the population just so that the covid-free parts of the country can remain temporarily safe

I've gone through some economic data and we are absolutely, catastrophically fucked. The cure is way worse than the disease.

The good news is that will be taking the rest of the Australian economy down with us, which is the thing the myopic milk shitters in other states are too stupid to realize.
