Ya gotta use toilet paper and wash your hands.
This has been a PSA for the Imams.

No-Go Zones do not assimilate to Western Culture.
“As we get into warmer weather, more people will be walking around in t-shirts and shorts, and spending more time outdoors.”
That will no doubt help - but I read a study where a group of SoCal lifeguards were tested, and to the researchers’ surprise about 75% of them (IIRC) had 25(OH)D levels below 30. I believe the study stated that they didn’t use sunscreen.
You never give up do you? Will you be back to apologize for being wrong or are you going to insist that the tiny numbers are actually huge?
Go home!
I hate all these sob stories.
RE: Will you be back to apologize for being wrong or are you going to insist that the tiny numbers are actually huge?
How can I be wrong when I am at this point, still suspending my judgment?
Here are my tentative conclusions:
Is Covid-19 more contagious than the flu? Yes.
Is Covid-19 more lethal than the flu? Yes.
How much more lethal and how much more contagious? I don’t know.
Will Covid-19 fizzle like most other viruses ( e.g. Spanish Flu, Hong Kong Flu, H1N1 )? My tentative answer is MOST LIKELY. <-— The answer to these questions I won’t know definitely until long after the fact.
Hold it I think I feel a tear coming on..............uh no
Hmmmm. Darker complected people don’t fare as well as fair complected people in areas noted for long, long winter nights and low sun angles during the day?
Could it be...
...low Vitamin-D?
[long pause]
Nahhhhh, that’s just crazy talk!
what a shame!
Headline is probably a lie anyway.
It’s a bit of a dilemma when you get sick away from home.
Are you supposed to stay in the hotel or whatever for however long, cancel travel tickets etc? You are exposing people wherever you are.
They will be getting free paid by us healthcare. Don’t care if they croak.
I’m one of those 15 mins in the sun and burn Celtic skinned people. I get D3 via a vitamin pill along with the 30 mg Zinc.
Good idea! I don’t burn that easily but I still don’t spend more than about 20 minutes in the (Phoenix) sun. I’ve taken a D3 supplement (10,000 i.u.) for about 15 years and added Vitamin K about 4 years ago.
There are also studies suggesting vitamin D protects against the Wuhan virus ... and dark skinned people in northern areas get less of it.
Feel good news of the day. Can we sent Omar to Sweden as Ambassador?
2 words........BOO HOO
It was "early March" They should have taken precautions to not expose anyone, especially not a random taxi driver.
wellll...could be their bodies are accustomed to former hot sunny lands whereas Sweden lacks both....cold and dark.
