That''s where I'm at, minus being immunocompromised. Just gonna watch the numbers as stuff reopens. If we get a handle on things I'll hit some group activities like church, smaller restaurants, or kids parties. Probably not concerts for a while. If things go apeshit then I'll just keep hunkering down except for necessities that can't be delivered. Sucks, but other pandemics swept through in a year or two. I imagine this will follow the same pattern. Hoping by 2022 we're all just talking about what a shit show it was. Don't like people up in my personal space anyway, so I'm just gonna be happy if people give me distance for whatever reason.PartyOf5 wrote: ↑Mon May 11, 2020 8:10 pmLike it or not things are going to open back up. If we stay in the same level of lock down we've had the past 2 months for another 2 months things will be just as bad, just instead of COVID deaths and permanent harm it will be deaths due to missed cancer screenings, suicide, and other causes.
We also can't just say F-it and act like nothing is out there. Companies should at the very least be checking temps and sending people above 100.4 back home. Keep people distanced as much as possible. It won't stop spread, but it helps to limit it, which is what we've been trying to do all along. Stopping it completely isn't going to happen until there is a vaccine, and even then it may be like the flu where they can vaccinate you against the strain they know but not any new ones that pop up.
I'm compromised, and I've already planned on not attending any concerts, sporting events, or anything else with large groups of people for the rest of 2020. I will minimize my contact and possible exposure as much as possible. I hope that others respect that. That includes keeping a distance from people wearing masks, gloves, or otherwise indicating they have concerns about catching this.
We will see what happens as things open back up. At this point I'm not certain of any outcome, but I expect there will be flare ups throughout the year and maybe certain areas will have to be locked back down in order to calm the spread before it gets out of hand like in New York and New Jersey.

Re: Coronavirus thread
Whenever Americans are trying to restrict freedom more than Sweden I am certain that they have some kind of scam going on.
I guess Big Farma wants to wait for a new drug to be approved before letting people out. There is a lot of money on the table and the MSM has its hand in their pocket like a prison bitch.
The Democrats just want to crash the economy on purpose because "Orange Man Bad". New impeachment is being drafted as we speak.

'Social Distancing' is Snake Oil, Not Science
Very likely, you already instinctively know that the guidelines suggesting that it’s somehow helpful to keep a six-foot space between healthy people, even outdoors, is not based on science, but just an arbitrary suggestion we’ve been conditioned to accept without evidence.
And your gut feeling would be right. There’s a reason that “social distancing” wasn’t a buzzword common to the American lexicon prior to 2020. There’s very little science behind “social distancing” at all.
“It turns out,” Julie Kelly writes at American Greatness, “as I wrote last month, “social distancing” is untested pseudoscience particularly as it relates to halting the transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. On its website, the CDC provides no links to any peer-reviewed social distancing studies that bolster its official guidance.”

The Head of Forensic Pathology in Hamberg, Germany has something interesting to say.

Ok, now someone come out of your bunker and tell me how he's just an idiot Trump supporter.

Emphasis added for those who refuse to look at a narrative other than SIFCLF stories.Translated into English wrote: "All of those we have examined so far have had cancer, a chronic lung disease, were heavy smokers or heavily obese, suffered from diabetes or had a cardiovascular disease." The virus was the last drop, so to speak, that was the keg Overflow brought. "We had - nobody knows yet - the first 100-year-old who died of Covid-19." Was it the last drop? "The very last one," said Püschel.
Püschel wants to calm the population down. "By focusing strongly on the rather few negative processes, fears are created that are very burdensome," says the legal doctor. There is no reason for fear of death in connection with the spread of the disease here in the Hamburg region, he says. “Covid-19 is a deadly disease only in exceptional cases, but in most cases it is a mostly harmless virus infection.

Re: Coronavirus thread
Just move to Somalia since you want us all to die Fife. Do you not see that running a business is an act of mass murder? Barber shops are literal Auschwitz gas chambers with hair clippings and dead stacked up like cordwood. Guess what dude, Covid also raises your body temperature, which heats up the atmosphere even more, but I guess you don't care about Greta either.Fife wrote: ↑Tue May 12, 2020 4:38 am'Social Distancing' is Snake Oil, Not Science

Re: Coronavirus thread
lol I misread your post. For some reason I thought you were saying you thought you had it. Didn't realize you meant you're immunocompromised. I would do the same tbhPartyOf5 wrote: ↑Tue May 12, 2020 5:44 amOh no, the racist troll insulted me.TheReal_ND wrote: ↑Mon May 11, 2020 8:25 pmYou sound like a faggotI'm compromised, and I've already planned on not attending any concerts, sporting events, or anything else with large groups of people for the rest of 2020
