During economic downturns I *always* assume arson is insurance related.

Sometimes I’m wrong, but not usually.

Last night, on the local news, claimed meat prices have only risen 4%. Snort, snort. I - don’t - think - so.

CDC doesn’t know it’s backside from a hole in the ground. They still don’t know how Ebola is transmitted. Masks are dangerous/wear your masks. Disinfect your mail/mail is ok. It magically doesn’t get on food/it might get on food. HCQ will kill you... ok, the Orange Man advocates/d it so it’s still bad.

More from last night’s local news - the dairy farmers who had dumped milk over the lack of plastic gallon jugs at the milk plant have now figured out all that milk could have been turned into yogurt. Wow, who knew?!? /s. Yogurt, cheese, butter, ice cream, evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, powdered milk, hog feed...

“Well, at least they are wearing masks.”

They’re also outdoors. They’ll be fine.

Someone should do a study on air conditioning. Undeveloped countries would have more fresh air in their homes and work places.

Ebola stays in the body for months or years. Some have it pop back up after a few years again and again.

Yes, “Human Capital Stock” is referring to the national workforce. Yes, “stock” can refer to MANY things, including merchandise, capital, assets, stockpiles, holdings and yes, even animals raised on a farm or ranch. At the highest level, our workforce is a national asset, and largely, they DO want to get back to work. But to say he was calling people cattle is twisting his statement.

In time of war, Admirals refer to Fleets, not Sailors. Generals refer to Battalions, not Soldiers.

Reading insult into his words, then taking offense over that insult is trivial. Deal with the intended content of his statement rather than wasting time with word games.

Cool. So that’s why that package of 70/30 ground beef costs the same as filet mignon.

“Social media posts of the Lovett drive-in showed some students sitting together in a truck bed. Other photos showed groups of Lovett students together in close quarters after the event.”

Well, they did drive in... in groups.

This “you can’t get it from surfaces” thing defies logic.I guess all those countries spraying disinfectant all over the place are just doing it for appearances?

“Someone should do a study on air conditioning. Undeveloped countries would have more fresh air in their homes and work places.”

Our ‘experts’ already have it all figured out, so why bother trying to learn anything? But, actually, much of the Third World now has air conditioning, at least the parts that I’ve been to. I can’t say how much they use them, but AC is very widespread and is the dirty little secret regard carbon emissions, and something the Left won’t own up to.

But one thing is for certain - literally no one had AC during the 1918 outbreak...and that pattern certainly points to fresh air (i.e., open windows, in that case) being mitigating factor.

Researchers track high levels of COVID-19 in Florida wastewater. South Florida sewage is “chock-full” of the virus.
____________________________________________________________

This is the “fecal oral” vector, known for a few months and IGNORED by those seeding nursing homes with CCP-19 patients. Once there, “fumes full of virus” and normal elderly “accidents” are actually huge biohazards contributing to spread. This gets spread by workers, handling of elderly cleanup after accidents, and HVAC system spread.
