It’s just the flu, bro.
Today I am presenting new science that I developed that will improve the situation we are in with this Coronavirus. My qualifications to speak on epidemiological matters are listed below: 1, Flubros member for 13 days 2. I am smart and creative and read the internet
Herd immunity holds that when approximately 60% of a population gets a virus then the other 40% are way less likely to get it because there are fewer potential transmitters of the disease around.
Therefore, I introduce the new science concept of encouraging healthiness-differentiated social distancing - or HSD.
The public policy this new science points to is clear - only the sick, unhealthy, immune-compromised and old should be encouraged to social distance until The end of April. Everyone else (the young and healthy) should do more socializing and touching than they would normally do.
What is the effect of this? The largely asymptomatic healthy people get removed as potential vectors for the disease during the month of April. They would get exposed and go through a period of being communicable, but they would be socially distant from the vulnerable. Then, after the period of being contagious is over, they begin to socialize with the vulnerable.
This also “flattens the curve” as the healthy won’t be going to the doctor. This keeps the economy going.
The most important benefit is that it prevents the likelihood of a second outbreak like China is having. Undifferentiated social distancing (opposite of what I want) keeps the vulnerable continually at risk for infection. This is what China is doing and this is what we are doing.
Have you been in my pantry?
Why does your FR handle explain -exactly- my attitude toward your posts?
We are not worthy...
Bags everyone knows your gender =o)
The others? Confused
The men on the forum are taking care of their loved ones
The fluboi crowd...not so much
Does my alpha male aroma seep through the wires of the information super highway?

Yet there are those of us who think that those who resist the derp state's panic-mongering, which is their attempt to break down civilization in order for them to retain their control, is a better way of taking care of their family.

Your pantry in inadequate and desperately needs restocking. Your attitude is slightly less full than your pantry. Your posts (had I read one) are even more vacuous than either above.
Attitudes just are. They are not subject to meassuerment.
Your science, again, is bad.
Piff!
So, you have been in my pantry!
Are you a burglar of some sort?
Hmmmmmm?
And my attitude is FABULOUS!
Life is a cabaret, my friend.
Yes, I speak French.
A turd burglar.
Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!
Score one for Bagster.
Why are refining oil from the Saudis...
It’s a cabernet at my house.
Assist.
Good enough for me! :)
No, I don't think so.
Except maybe if one is speaking in terms of refined oil, since we don't have the refineries we need.
But Russia and Saud are selling oil almost below cost to everyone else.
Our oil has nowhere to go.
You need a useful hobby and maybe further education.
Does my alpha male aroma seep through the wires of the information super highway?
Um...no...not really =o/
Prattle? Drivel?
Wow! you're the old one!
