I’ve got the thick and the thin fabric ones.

I’m going to try to find the link where they were being used.

Nursing homes around here are wanting them. I’ll have to drag out my sewing machine.

So what? It’s good satire.

His finger is gray at the end but pink at the start.

So like, you're saying...

Fauci's boogers are gray?

Ewww, *gross*.

;-)

Just saw an interview with Fauci, says due to the nature of his job he does not wear a mask. Pressed further he started to talk about his wife, dodging the question. Pretty sure he does not wear mask probably never has

You can’t really post the chart without the context, and they will not take the time to read the context, nor learn about the guy who did the graph. So that’s why I don’t bother, it’s just asking for a headache.

Ronan at FluTrackers has been tracing influenza for almost a decade. He knows his stuff, he’s not some kid in his mom’s basement throwing around stats.

By the way, one thing you will find interesting about that group, is while they scream if you separate flu deaths out like that, they are trying to do the same thing with CV. They are saying that very few are actually dying of CV. They like to move the goalposts, lol

About time. A milk run isn’t essential. Dragging along all the kids isn’t essential for the vast majority. Neither is going to Walmart to shop for the latest video game just because it’s allowed to be open.

Saudi seller ships from China...yeah..what could go wrong

Probably a great deal at that. They come all pre-contaminated.

I’d do better looking for any in the garage.

What kind of fabric for the dish towels/tea towels?

I have some that are terry cloth, some that are cotton, and some linen.

?

What does that mean - the nature of his job?

What sort of a job duty would preclude him from wearing a mask - or would make a mesas impractical?

Hallucinations can occur from just being sick.

I was hospitalized with MRSA several years ago and was on no pain killers cause my BP was so low, and I hallucinated but seeing things and hearing things.

It was weird.

They are total hypocrites.

They are also Pro-Death.

As far as I can tell, they are motivated by money, and not much else.

One of them did read the context, and then proceeded to mock the author of the chart.

“Typical BS answer and certainly not unexpected.

I am quite competent at math and I am also able to source statistics on my own without your guidance and approval, comrade.

The reason I called out this crap is I actually have gone over the numbers on my own initiative and noticed immediately that this persons data, as presented, does not reflect reality.

In fact, the author of that nonsense explicitly noted that it was created by the author and manipulated at the author’s discretion.

You implore me to believe the bullshit you’re preaching and don’t think for myself.

If I don’t take your word for it, in your eyes I am a heretic.

You’re welcome to your version of reality. Enjoy your stay!”

This is what it said to me, I’m also not going to ping it here.

Which is why I don’t bother. Mocking the source is what they do when they run out of arguments.

It’s a losing battle, you will never, ever, change their minds. It only will be a source of frustration, lol

I think they're talking about the cotton ones (more tightly woven).

Like this....

You’re right about that.

Best to just leave them.

Those I have.

I use them for when I make bread during the rising stage.

Never was interested in terry cloth fibers in the dough.

New Orleans has emerged as one of the country’s coronavirus hotspots, with a death rate per-capita double that of New York City, according to a troubling new report.

Meanwhile, the death rate for the Big Apple was 18.86 per 100,000 people, the outlet reported.

Louisiana has reported more than 12,400 cases as of Sunday with the death toll climbing over 400, according to Johns Hopkins University.
