Please explain why California homeless camps seem unaffected as a control group example?

Am I safer outdoors always?

Please explain why grocery story workers haven’t keeled over, daily, for the past months.

They’re under 80 years of age.

Yes, you are much safer outdoors. The CDC has stated transmission is 19 times more likely indoors than outdoors. Another study looked at several thousand cases and could only find 1 where outdoor transmission was likely how they caught it.

Unless you’re shoulder to shoulder in a big crowd (like a riot), you should have extremely low risk of catching it outdoors regardless of masks. Indoors is where all the risk is.

Funny enough, California has been spending tens of millions of dollars putting homeless people up in hotels to “protect” them from COVID-19. That’s not only wasting taxpayer dollars at a time when they’ve had to cut state workers’ pay by ~10% and when they’ve gone into massive debt and now have massive wildfires to contend with, it’s also apparently counterproductive to their originally claimed goals of preventing spread of COVID-19 among the homeless. Absolute clowns running that state.

I wondered that early on. I knew it couldn't be the life style ie: drug & alcohol abuse or sanitation.

They should have been dropping like flies if this disease was as deadly as it was sold to be.

The homeless in San Francisco have a huge infection rate, easily north of 70%, coincidentally they were tested INSIDE shelters. They don't seem to be symptomatic for the most part. That's why the homeless were ostensibly put up in hotels. It was marketed as a way to protect them, similarly for jails. Clearing the jails was marketed as a way to protect the convicts. Really? Why not just give them masks.

CV19 is primarily spread through feces and the main vector is oral-fecal via touch. Just like Polio or Noro. That's why it was so deadly in Nursing homes. Elderly bed bound incontinent patients with weakened immune systems. That is not talked about much as it would destroy the mask control narrative.

It manifests as a respiratory condition and does seem to have a minor respiratory vector ergo the mask BS. A far better preventative is frequent hand washing with soap and water, cleaning touched surfaces, covering your mouth & nose when you sneeze and getting exposure to sunlight. Just like the Flu.

The homeless in San Francisco are EXEMPT FROM MASK requirements and only “urged” to social distance. In a tent? Give me “effin” break

It finally dawned on me they are outside a lot plus they tend to walk alot when they aren't passed out
What do you get a lot of being out side? Sunlight.
What does sunlight give you besides a sunburn? A hell of a lot of Vitamin D3.

Think about it. No one has been able to effectively answer me on that.
Sounds you are realizing it as well.
Its not a cure-all because co-morbidity's are a factor, mainly obesity and diabetes.

Actually the Princess cruise ship that couldn’t dock is the best control group. As I recall, most passengers did not test positive and only a few elderly died. I have an econ degree and an MBA. Not a doctor. That’s why I’ve approached the herd immunity question with econometric modeling.
