    It must be tough for old people.  No one gives a shit about them.  If this virus killed kids there would be a full on panic.  
    Most people I’ve discussed this with say something like “it only kills you if you’re old,” as if that makes it insignificant.  I’m sure a lot of people in their 60s, 70s and 80s that died from this felt they had a lot of life to live. It’s a shame. You’re right though. If kids were as susceptible, the panic meter would have blown up by now.

    "n95 masks are highly effective at preventing infection for the wearer"

    IF THEY ARE FIT TEST PROPERLY...and I'm a health care professional that has had them fit test in the past. 

    I’m sure he can get his properly fit tested if he chooses. If I go to the shows, I won’t be wearing a mask, but I have zero issue with anyone that does decide to take that precaution. The “masks don’t do anything” camp is nonsense. Droplets transmit the disease. A mask (properly fit or not) reduces the likelihood of droplets hitting someone’s face.

    Yeah, you have to be clean shaven outside of a short mustache for them to function effectively.  When I started at the hospital they made us all clean shave and get fitted for the masks.

    @Saltzy23 So I assume you live in one of the five boroughs but work in Manhatten; what is the vibe in the city?  is it business as usual?  People wearing masks?  
    Was in the city last night.  Same as it always is. People out and about doing there thing. 
    Was at the Rangers game last night. Same as it always is (though Kyle MacLachlan was in our section and we nearly bumped into him and he was apologetic for holding us up)

    what happened to the fun we were having with song titles? 
    Truth in this country: Nursing facilities are understaffed and underpreparted for a spread of a virus (EXACTLY what happend at Life Care Center in Kirkland). Not enough PPE, training, time...so the "old people" (and I wonder what some of you cut off the age for old) are left at the hands of fate. 

    Old, like over 50 rock bands? ;)

    People also need to remember any flu can be deadly for anyone at any AGE that have pre-exsisting health issues such as respiratory, cardiac, diabetes, etc..etc.. regardless of age, They (we) are always at much higher risks.

    Fit testing for.a mask is not complicated.  I’ve been fit tested many times.  It mainly consists of confirming you’re  getting oxygen through the filter and they typically break a capsule with a strong aroma, like banana, and make sure you can’t smell it.

    So wearing an n95 means any potential contact high is out the window?

    Fuck that.

    I've read experts state that a mask IS of use as well.  I always defer to the experts, but if two sets of "experts" are giving two sets of answers, I'd take the more conservative route if I was considering wearing a mask (I'm not).  To each their own.

    As of right now I have zero concern about going to a concert. People need to stop fucking panicking and use common sense. That is all.

    He said as of "right now", and it also depends where one is I suppose.  There isn't a treatment, and it's contagious so it's going to spread. 

    It's not a huge problem in most of the US....yet.

    Except when kids are killed by guns then our leaders don’t give a shit. I’m guessing we’d all feel better if we had a leader we felt we could trust to give us the truth and who was honestly concerned about people’s health over money. Alas we don’t.  

    So I’ve been singing dance of the clairvoyants instead of happy birthday when washing my hands. What’s your wash your hands song?

    Agree, My point... Concern isn't the same thing as Panic. Zero concern can be as bad as panic. If you have a fever or feeling crappy then have a little concern to not pass it to others.. Having concern for fellow citizens, family.. etc.. is all I meant.
