Back in day 13 of the thread we discussed “Healthiness differentiated social distancing”. If you are vulnerable maybe you should socially distance but if you are healthy then you should be out and about. This is the proper way to get herd immunity. This way the healthy people build immunity and then, after contagious period passes, they can’t pass CV on to the vulnerable. Instead we are doing the opposite - protect the children at all costs and let the people in nursing homes get sick. Even Sweden has said that their method is great but they needed to do more to protect the nursing homes.
Trump says he wants schools to reopen this year - this makes one think someone is mentioning herd immunity to him. Just getting political for a minute - if school open in Augst/September for the first time then we will have a large spike in cases (asymptomatic, panic inducing positive cases) right at election time and this could constitute the “second wave” which will cause panic. Opening school this school year is best for the vulnerable and best for preventing a panic-inducing second wave in the fall.
Let’s open things up!
Ping. Freepmail Impimp to go on ping list.
Serious question: Was the Wuhan bio-lab conducting research which was illegal to conduct in the United States?
This presumes people will develop immunity to CCP disease, and how long any immunity will last.
I think the CDC officially jumped the shark yesterday with their advisory that our pets need to start social distancing.
:: if school open in August/September for the first time then we will have a large spike in cases ::
Let us wait and see. I predict a large amount of illness after the schools open but these may be skewed by a political act/agenda of some parents.
“I think little Johnny is running a fever. I’m going to keep him out of school for 2 weeks.”
That will show those conservative protestors!
House Arrest...Day 41.

Have you seen this? Professor Knut Wittkowski,following up on his March interview. Analysis of hard data. He says infection peak in the U.S. happened around March 8, a whole week before the lock downs started, and that the decision makers should have known that. He had stated so back then.

Here at our construction site I have been imploring people to realize that we on an open-air construction site will NOT get the Wu-tang Flu the same way that urban dwellers that cram 14 into an elevator or 140 into a subway car will.
Finally OSHA came out with a worker exposure risk pyramid that proves my point.
https://www.osha.gov/Publications/OSHA3993.pdf
“LOWER EXPOSURE RISK (CAUTION)
Jobs that do not require contact with people known to be, or suspected of being, infected.
Workers in this category have minimal occupational contact with the public and other coworkers.”
We still advice to abide by the distancing rules and keep their hands away from their face but don’t worried and stay focused on the hazards around you.
