You can still limit exposure to particles. The amount of particles, overexposure, etc. can increase the severity of COVID19. Take those first Chinese doctors, they dropped dead in days.

They were killed for reporting what was happening.

So doctors should stop wearing them immediately!
Doctors know how to use them.

Well most of them. I saw a live broadcast from a hospital this morning. 2 nurses kept touching their faces and a doctor pulled his mask down off his mouth towards his neck so he could talk.

Yeah, so I have no idea what the fuck you're rambling about, but it has nothing to do with what I was referring to Also, it's adorable that you think business owners should be pnealized for the convenience of the government when it's an issue that was solely created by the government themselves.
Of course you have no idea what I'm talking about. My ramblings had everything to do with what you were talking about, you're just too economically illiterate to understand.

You said that people were moronic, your words, as they would become more sloppy when wearing masks. Made that up? Go read your shit. Don't be so triggered brah. Come with an actual argument other than people are morons once they put a mask on.
I said they're being sloppy now, and they'll be emboldened wearing masks. Just leave your house and watch the behavior of most people wearing masks. They seem to be under the impressino that wearing a mask means you don't need to do anything else.

p.s. See how upset you're getting? Yeah, "Team Pro-Mask"

I'm not talking about any of the countries you referenced, and that isn't what they're doing here, so, no.

Here we have a situation where a bunch of people are renting apartments they can't afford. Now that they've been forced to stay home for a week, instead of reassessing what mistakes they've made and expecting the government to clean up the mess they made. They're blaming the greedy landlords for expecting them to fulfill their part of a contract.

Yes. Absolutely. We used to fuck them by putting a guillotine through their neck, so they might consider themselves very lucky just to have their wealth extraction capped. The rentier class is a parasite on a capitalist system, let alone a socialist one. You won't have to read Karl Marx to recognize this obvious fact, you can just read Adam Smith.
I own properties
I am not a parasite...I just feel property is a safer place for my money than the stock market

If everybody wanted their money from the stock market nobody would get their money from the stock market

At least a property is a roof and a place to take a shit

This happens more than you think. Still with those masks, the risks are reduced.

As for wearing masks, people can be educated. It ain't rocket science.

Hey man, you are talking as if part of a team, not me. Props for sticking with it though. I can respect that.

As I said, I don't care what people do or don't wear on their face it's up to them. But when people start extoling the virtues of wearing a mask and won't take no for an answer it quickly becomes apparent that they've chosen a team and there's no convincing them otherwise. To the point where in this case you've made things up and then got mad over them.

That is speculation, but fair enough. Still healthcare workers are more exposed and have higher amount of exposure thus having a constant barrage of being attacked by this virus. It takes time for the body to fight off a virus. It at least may increase one's chances of recovery.

What's Dallas doing...



3 days later
247 has become 439
2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-CoV)


Not quite 494 as expected. Are we flattening the curve? Small enough difference that it doesn't matter and its just testing?
Either way, at this rate Dallas will hit Italy level infection in 2 weeks. Needs to be flatter.
3 days later 439 has become 631

247--439--631
1.7x and 1.5x

This is slower growth than the original doubling.
Perhaps testing but, perhaps interventions are slowing and working?

But today had the most cases found
Dallas County reports 82 coronavirus cases — the most in a single day; 2 DART employees test positive

I don't think anyone got mad bro. Not me at least. We've had our back and forth's on here.

Sure as fuck wishing I wasn't renting in Silicon Valley ridiculous pricing considering I have no household income right now. Such a wake up.
