Copper Cleaning: I use catsup/ketchup.

Surgeon: “I’m sorry but your wife’s surgery is going to be delayed for a few hours.”

Husband: “Why? You told me her surgery was urgent!”

Surgeon: “Well, we need catsup and lots of it to clean the operating room after the previous surgery but the cafeteria ran out because they had a sudden rush on hot dogs and French fries so we sent the head OR nurse to Costco but the checkout line is a bit long and now she can’t find her membership card or her coupon.”

$5 is the cost for a Mexican guy to row US citizens across the border to some little Mexican town. One would guess it is the same price to row someone to the US side of the Rio Grande.

Hospitals do not bill the government for what those services are worth.

The government pays what it wants to pay.

That bill was a listing of what the hospital would normally charge.

It is nowhere near what it actually receives.

Most hospitals these days are barely scraping by.

You may want to leave the doors unlocked. If someone with the virus goes through the parking lot checking for unlocked cars, he’ll take yours so you’re free after he’s contaminated the ones left in the parking lot.

R0 (say Arrrr Nought) is an estimate of the average number of people the average infected person passes the disease to.

Nothing like an enclosed area with a lot of people to spread this thing.

At least Austin’s marathon will be outside tomorrow though still a lot of people huddled together on the sidelines.

we’re just having a little random chain of thought fun, VL. I think it started off with ‘copper’s antimicrobial’ ‘cool’ ‘what about copper socks for the docs’ and ‘Lysol w/copper’ and now we’re back to cleaning copper pots and kitchen sinks with ketchup. Or maybe the ketchup is just for pots.

Maybe some of us may live long enough to see nanoparticle sprays or thin films of various antimicrobals applied to surfaces as part of infection control instead of leftover stainless from ww2. You don’t see SS in many private doctors’ offices any more. But I don’t think any FReeper believes hospitals of today are just going to run right out and retrofit entire wards. It’s just chatter :)
