GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted November 6, 2020 Report Share Posted November 6, 2020 France had 60,000 new cases and 800 new Covid deaths today and has 1/5 the population of the US. Holy crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She started feeling symptoms Tuesday and got tested (and failed to mention it to me). Got her results back and notified me today. I was able to get a minute clinic test but no results yet. haven’t felt any symptoms at all, so unsure if I have it or not but I guess time will tell. Man that sucks...Early on one of my coworkers I was around tested positive...I was a real prick about people wearing masks so he did have one on around me(he feels he caught it from his GF...But the two week quarantine was stressful..

tarponhead Posted November 7, 2020 Report Share Posted November 7, 2020 There’s not going to be a national lockdown but many areas could see herd immunity before there’s a viable vaccine if numbers keep surging the way they do. Agree no lockdown unless hospitals get maxed. Heard immunity??? To lazy to crunch numbers but I doubt it. Go with low bar of 60% and assume no one leaves their county but even that... please (I’m begging) tell me I’m wrongSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brazil hasn’t done but and Covid-19 is still raging. In Mexico there were 5,000 new cases today and 500 new deaths so they obviously aren’t testing many people. From what I’ve seen people are only immune to Covid for a certain amount of time so herd immunity could be a fallacy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And from what we do know, people have contracted covid twice in some places. We will be in this pattern through 2021 and into 2022. Maybe beyond. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve heard that eventually there could be an annual booster shot needed. Also 132,000+ new cases today. I remember back around mid July when it was half that think wow just wow...mid December maybe 300k?? Also North Dakota has had the highest per capita rate of infection with about 7% of their population testing positive for corona. PA is ranked 44th with 1.7% officially testing positive. Vermont is ranked last at .3% as far as testing Rhode Island and Alaska have done more than one test per person during this. PA ranks very low in testing with about one test per five people.

Yeah, it’s fucked up she didn’t tell me at first, but she worked Saturday night (respiratory therapist) and felt symptoms Tuesday and wasn’t sure when she got it as she was off Sunday Monday and Tuesday and got the symptoms on Tuesday morning so I can’t really blame her for it. She doesn’t go out to eat or go to the bar or anything like that so it’s isolated to her job, at a hospital, and given the fact she hadn’t worked the 4 days before I saw and her experienced symptoms 3 days after leads me to believe she doesn’t think I was at risk 2 hours ago, GrilledSteezeSandwich said: My exact thoughts..noway they both had masks on.

enjoralas Posted November 7, 2020 Report Share Posted November 7, 2020 Don’t know anyone who got it but I don’t have many friends, lol. No one I work with (about 20 techs) has gotten it, which is surprising with the number of interactions we have. I even survived a meal at Shady Maple in September. Touching back to @Schif’s question, at one point a few months ago Comcast tested us all and then two weeks later tested us again (entire region, not just Sellersville) but then said they were done with that. It wasn’t the grey matter poke tho, just a self-administered q-tip in the nostril. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw that at Vegas buffets you now order off a menu and a server brings you whatever you. I haven’t seen any salad bars back yet but wegmans has self service soup bar back.

Masks required away from table of course. At every pass through to the buffet there was a table set up with hand sanitizer and boxes of plastic gloves that were required to use the serving utensils. Tables were marked off as unusable for social distancing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just opened a new location that I was going to check out but not now. The best area hot dogs, Yoccos is 100% mask compliant. They even require customers to wear masks in the drive thru.

Sarcasm doesn’t translate well through text. skip mad dog, go to the grocery store and get a pack of ballpark hot dogs, canned chili, and some shredded cheese and boom, you have the same thing they sell for WAY less Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
