"We are growing weary, over here :)
Wiping down any grocery deliveries and spraying down the mail...then, letting it bake in the sun, is getting old."

I haven't done any of that, but do take the antivirals. In and out all day, visit lots of stores, generally eat restaurant take-out twice a day, four grandkids coming and going, haven't even tried on a mask or pair of gloves, although I have them. Haven't applied disinfectant to a single surface except my hands. All this in WA State, yet, but still we're healthy. Am I tempting fate, just lucky? (Or possibly already have resistance from a mild case?).

My question about the extreme isolationist strategies is 'When do you end them?'. When there are no more known cases in your city...state..country...world? What about other diseases?

= = =

Those are the $64M questions that the Task Force won’t answer.

I heard one epidemiologist say to go ahead and let ‘er rip..protect the elderly/most vulnerable and give everyone else herd immunity...then, when the country is down to 60 CV deaths/day, you can call it over and done with. Some studies are saying that the overall fatality rate would be about the same as with taking mitigation measures..

I have no idea. The goal posts keep changing for Dr Scarf.

I wonder what happens if this stuff possibly resurfaces, in fall. Same thing, again?

Good for you that you’re not having to take any extra protection (wiping the groceries/mail, etc.) measures.

Which antivirals are you taking?
