Corona Virus

    I want to know the statistics for all the suddenly sick asymptomatic people. Did they need hospitalized after finding out? How many never did have symptoms? How many needed ventilators? How many died? How many are now testing negative ....because they never really had it? How many were cured?


    My guess is you’ll never know these answers.....because nobody does...

    You may have to ask FunCycle about that brake question. I’ll bet he has the right answer.


    JUST SAYIN

    Keep Three Wheels Down

    Well my frustration is, the media never digs down to see why people are getting the virus. Is it because they are not social distancing or around people not wearing masks? Allot of unanswered questions to how someone is getting the virus. I feel if you use your head then contracting the virus is very low.

    Very interesting point...!

    Look at the population we’re I live compared to the county we’re Maggie is..

    We are Very close county wide as populations but look at the difference in cases...

    Makes me wonder...!!🙃X/

    We are at positive cases 1226 today Haywood county NC around 150.... WAIT WHAT...!???

    I can answer this one!

    airoutlaw keeps me up to speed on the overall majority opinions for the forum...

    But first.... let me say this in response to the "only trumpers not wearing masks"... Totally false. Alabama is a true RED state - with speckled bits of blue scattered about. The majority of ppl here wore masks before mandated two days ago... however only a small percentage of alabamians are still kicking and screaming like two year olds... not at ALL am I defending Trump... and his lack of masking ... thats a totally different thread...


    Ok, the reason why both are needed is because of the inability to eliminate the "human" factor.

    We naturally tend to congregate while conversing... i have caught myself and others UNINTENTIONALLY in each others spaces at work. You gravitate and engage the other person and without being conscious of it, we invade each others social distance rule.

    Alabama is currently a hotbed... i work in a county that has nearly 4000 cases alone. I do my BEST to stay CONSCIOUSLY AWARE of objects i touch, ppl, and carry pure isopropyl alcohol in a pocket sized spray bottle at all times. Out of respect for others i maintain my distance best i can minus the "human factor". And then there are the stupid ppl, who do not share the same respect, or show any regard to me and my loved ones as i have to them.

    I have even asked outright "do not touch me" when a co-worker complained of freezing hands and wanted to touch my arm. This co-worker went ahead and grabbed my wrist and laughed and said "oh good God, I'm not sick... i guess youll have to go sanitize your arm now".


    This is how i see that both are needed.. because of the human (stupid) factor.


    By the way... another reason is ... not everybody wearing a mask want to wear a mask... therefore they will pull it down to their chins, or only cover their nose and upper lip... for those individuals... yes - lets please keep telling them to stay 6 feet back - even wearing their ridiculous mask..

    My county has 32 cases. The county south of me has over 100. The next county south has over 3300!!!!

    A 1000 percent difference in 40 miles. One difference is population, but the main difference is a Tyson Meat processing plant. Too close together and no masks. Also, no testing and a government DEMAND by the Governor and the Pres to keep the plants open. Local government finally FORCED the plant to close, clean and test.

    Could the fact that most of the workers were throw away people have anything to do with the Governor and Pres demanding that they go to work no matter what the conditions?

    Our Governor has her head so far up Trump's butt, that when he gets his morning spray paint face job, she farts yellow.

    Another fun fact....


    I came down with a truly explainable fever (from a repetitive medical illness) last sunday - I am in close contact with high risk loved ones daily. I had to be tested. I am one of the most cautious- with gloves masks and alcohol and distancing even with my own "human factor" mistakes .. someone would truly have to spit in my eye for me to test positive...

    I had to get tested before returning to work, which takes 5 days for results... meanwhile up until yesterday i have been fevered, and dehydrated, 5lbs of water weight gone...

    I cant see my doctor until i have results, and the only way I get seen by a doctor is to call an ambulance to escort me to the ER.


    I understand a true emergency- and did not wish to take emergency services away from someones loved one having a stroke or heart attack.... or needing a ventilator...

    I have no problem with masks- i dont see it as any more control than the government telling me to buckle up, have car insurance, or not go in public indecent....

    But.... im pretty sure i had pancreatitis this week... had it several times... know what it feels like well... without any covid symptoms, but all the symptoms and pains of pancreatitis - i needed to see a doctor this week... and was told twice that i couldnt see one.

    Are you in Alabama? If not, I bet your governor is a republican.... yes, I am a republican.... but ashamed of trump, and disgusted with Alabama's "Mawmaw" of a governor... everything she has implemented in the reopening - restrictions - what appears to be purposely limiting testing.... our governor is a puppet on strings that sings "if i only had a brain"...


    I had to call several places searching across three counties for a test. None of the places had rapid result test kits...

    I think it comes down to this... remember how crazy everyone was when there was a toilet paper shortage... Imagine a food shortage.... People would be insane... I do agree with the thought that those "essential" as they are called are not given the same consideration as other working people.

    When the going gets tough.... Downshift.
