Corona Virus

I am a bit surprised this thread is still going with the infection rate being nearly 0% world wide. What a freaking debacle these past months have been hiding from this invisible boogieman

I also feel obliged to correct those who choose to post incorrect information for the benefit of the wider audience - it's nothing personal.

Well your diet could explain a thing or two i am a bacon and egg bin lid man myself and a strong tea.The question is = better to wear a mask and glasses and gloves Vs Better not to use any PPE.I mean do you no who is Asymptomatic and who is not when you are in the shop or bus or train etc.And do Governments allways tell the whole truth at the right time.

Still a little while to go yet

ok, lets say someone is asymptomatic. How will they infect you ( seeing as how symptoms are what are spreading it), and how will your PPE protect you, where just not touching your face and washing your hands would help just the same?

Doesn't really change their statement does it? World wide, over 2 million people get the flu per day ( and that's if we pretend the flu is 365 days per year). What's 56,000 covid cases in a day really? The numbers we are all using, is complete nonsense.

Well its spreading through droplets from infected people so lets say im in the long cue in the post office and the is an infected person in front of me and there on there phone so they are spraying droplets all in the air that everyone in the shop is breathing in that's how im looking at it.Or im infected but im not spreading it coss i got the common sense to cover up.Its all about the droplets in enclosed spaces which can remain in the air for 3 hours.

well your mask is not going to protect you from droplets. Their mask will. And again, if they are out and about, they are asymptomatic. They are not producing all the virus laden particulates that someone with symptoms would have. your chances of not only being around a sick person, but also contracting it from someone who is asymptomatic AND is not sneezing and coughing, is negligible.

Here is the thing. There are things in this world that are more dangerous than this, that we take WAY less precaution against. 30-80,000 people in America die of just the flu, and that's with the huge amount of vaccines. and yet 10's of millions get it every year. We go on with life and view the flu as an annoyance. The vast majority that can die from covid, are going to be susceptible to dying from the normal flu. The flu kills the young and healthy. there have been something like 50 deaths of people under 25 in America?

Long story short, masks are for the sick, not the healthy. and a younger healthier person is more likely to die from many other things that they take a fraction of the precautions we are currently taking for covid.

For as long as it takes and im not young and healthy i have health issues.Hopefully if the numbers keep going down here in the uk then i wont need to use it as often if i don't sell and post i don't put food on the table.I no my N95 FFP3 masks will help me and the rest of my PPE if it didn't then why do people use it?Regardless to if other people are infected or not i would rather be safe than sorry.

Part of the reason as to why people were advised not to use PPE is it would take away the supply if everyone went out and started buying some from nurses and doctors and a lot of the people who still have to get into close proximity with people to more definitely carriers

If there’s only so much of something to go about and it is much better for it to go to people who do have a more pressing need for it

Be prepared! Our gov new what was on its way yet they choose to sit on there hands and bungle about they new they were short on ventilators and all PPE can't blame me for there mess.

I also take anti oxidant when I remember to take them .
You never know !

lol the masks are literally only for OTHERS to not get sick from YOU. How do you not know that yet? And the WHO just came out and said asymptomatic transmission is very rare. And this isn't air borne, so I'm not sure what you think is in your house, that the air cleaner is helping you with. Maybe some other stuff, but not covid.

Trump ran on the promise of loosening American ties to China.

That's something that would be easier said than done... unless of course a pandemic conveniently breaks out in the target country, giving you a reason to go on a crusade against them.

Now it's election season and the anti-china propaganda is strong.

I quit paying any attention months ago but that's how it seems to be playing out. American sentiment against China is at an all time high.



Who knows. There's always more than meets the eye.
