I saw a report that Facebook determined that for your social score in China the best distancing was 6’ to allow for the cameras to catch full facial recognition. That way the Chinese could update the Facebook designed better or worse additions to your individual social score.... ymmv

I remember ( know ) exactly where it came from

It was on local and national news for 2 days.

When the surgeon General , and fraudci, went on tv telling us ppe was low and not to go out and buy up all the n95’s

A sixth grade girl

started sewing homemade masks

and said these masks
and 6 feet socialist distanceing
were the answer to the problem.

She was a Covid cult hero for 2 days on local and national news.

At the time I thought

” great, now we are going to make everyone follow a rule made by a grade school student ?”

Spit

6'...That was assuming a cough or a sneeze was involved.

There was also a 15 minute contact necessary to pass it on.

Then remember the neurotic cleaning which resulted in sales of clorox, lysol....They just said recently that it was totally unnecessary....after we all became neurotic.

And yes....this is all on Fauci. He's a total ah.

Want to hear some common sense.

They are using a Doctor from Brown University now. And the gentleman has common sense. Most enjoyable to listen to him.

You would be correct!

Sean Davis via Twitter in response to Gottlieb saying we don’t know where this came from:

Yes, we do. The origin was a high school science project. Because our leaders, including Gottlieb, are corrupt morons.

They should have converted the social distance measure to Planck length, 1.143e+35.

https://www.wytv.com/news/daybreak/6-feet-distancing-goes-back-to-the-1800s/

It was based on glass plate testing done in the 1890s and 1940s.

“I knew it was BS from the start...?

Yes, with everyone crisscrossing the plane of someone else’s space just vacated.

It had nothing to do with science. It was for elections to keep election workers away from the computers, printers, ballot screening, etc. They penned up people (Republicans here in Michigan).

I trained for poll challenger and the job entails standing behind the person with the laptop checking the ID’s against the QVF file to see if they voted by absentee, if they are in right precinct, etc. The 6 Ft rule didn’t allow me to see the computer screen unless I had binoculars.

Notice how the media, Biden never mentions 6ft rule now. That is all we heard for a year until Biden came in. Now it’s just maintain social distancing.

Early on, I heard that some elementary school kid came up with it. How, why, etc., I have no idea.

Yes, no problem, you’re welcome. We have to be the spreaders of truth. If we conservatives don’t keep calling out the lies used to control us we are doomed.
