I’ve been following Chris for a while now, his reporting on this has been great.
I got stocked up back in January because I was listening to him.
Until there is a safe and effective vaccine, the crisis and its debilitating consequences will persist.
The most important thing to do, when out and about, is to wear gloves. As long as your wearing gloves, you’ll be fine.
For the most part.
How could such a potent virus not have jumped to humans earlier ? Call me conspiracy theorist but I am still not buying the it-was-an-accident theory. This is a virus that was engineered to spread.
No the AHA association guidance to medical workers is that if they wore gloves and gowns their liklihood of exposure was HIGH.
If they wore a mask and goggles but no gown or gloves, their risk of exposure was low.
The virus doesn't infect through the skin, unless you have an open sore. It can infect through the mouth, nose or eyes, or any body opening.
Gloves may protect you from picking up the virus from a surface, but only if you remember not to touch your face with your glove.
Yes, Chris’s reporting and analysis is excellent. However, he has a bias, IMO, toward over-representing the future severity of the crisis, reflecting the same inclination as his Peak Prosperity economics blog since 2008. That was evident today in his estimate of undetected cases at six times confirmed, which lead him to estimate that we are only at 900,000 U.S. cases, while we need 35 million to achieve herd immunity. That is a big assumption on his part. The U.S. may already have had a minimum of ten million cases to date. The logarithmic total cases chart for Italy has already flattened, with Spain almost there. Deaths lag cases by around two weeks. This may indicate that the U.S. could have the 100,000 to 200,000 deaths estimated by Fauci today, rather than the estimate of one or two million of a week or so ago.
His reporting really has been great.
This is the third or 4th video I’ve taken notes on and posted.
And I really think his ideas on masks are how we restart the economy sooner than later.
“The most important thing to do, when out and about, is to wear gloves. As long as your wearing gloves, you’ll be fine.”
This is incorrect. Gloves get contaminated like skin on your hands can. Once a glove is contaminated it is as bad as your hand being contaminated. It must be changed. Handwashing and not touching your face is far more effective.
Take it from me, I wear 15-25 pairs of gloves daily and wash my hands 50 times per day as part of my job taking care of people with illness.
“New study by MIT says 2 meter distance may needs to be 4 times bigger. Particles travels at 10 to 30 meters a second.”
When the social distance guidelines and recommendations came out, that is exactly the first thought about that subject I had.
I’ve seen the movies... And they’re easy to find.
Didn’t even have to look to know who post this :)
I’ve only posted 3 or 4 of his videos.
He puts one out almost every day. They’re all good.
I really think his ideas on masks could end the lock downs while keeping everyone safe.
I like what you said it doesn’t pass the sniff test this whole business got to be engineered and how is it administered how is it spread cuz they’re taking all these Draconian responses
My coworkers, who are all working from home, were talking about drining.
I asked if our productivity increased would we attribute it to working from home or drinking on the job.
“Both” was the unanimous reply.
I think you meant drinking but, if you are drinin, you probably already started...
Excellent video. Thanks!
Im trying to imagine the world where a human could expel a particulate at 30 meters a second.
Imagine being able to spit from one goal line to another. In 1 second.
Now, go outside and spit, see if you can spit 10 feet, and time how long it takes your spit to hit the ground.
My concern is to reduce the opportunity for the virus, by preventing it from touching skin. I can’t control the fact that all surfaces are being touched 1000 times a day by various individuals, but I can reduce the odds of taking that virus home with me by wearing gloves during the day and changing them a couple a times a day.
