    I would say hand washing and distance make perfect sense. No brainer
    That right there is why there is any controversy. Too many people running around without their brain properly engaged.

    I think the statement was that the six feet was not necessarily the silver bullet, i.e., there wasn't a magic distance that made you all the sudden super safe. Staying at home > 20 feet > 10 feet > 6 feet >1 foot.

    Unfortunately, people that only read headlines and are looking to be outrage are essentially interpreting it as "all social distancing was worthless."  I can't wait for next time when we have no precautions.

    What make sense Rob, to get the virus at 1.95m and not at 2.05m??..
    you know why I'm asking you..

  • I believe in science and I believe that all viruses that are airborne makes sense to keep your distance. I still feel like during winter or seasons where virus is more rife keep a distance and it may only be me but I'm not comfortable right in anyone's face or space. I know how airborne virus works. I know it's not for everyone but I stay away from close up situations as much as I can. That's me

  • I will add I did this  well before covid. And it's not new to me to think this way

    I'm sure the 6 feet thing was less-than-precise. I don't necessarily think that means we needed to be breaking fire codes at clubs and packing ourselves into places like sardeans. 

    I mean, COVID is airborne so should we walk-back the messages promoting hand-washing?
    Fauci lied about the handwashing thing because he’s been to public restrooms and he saw a good opportunity to go after the take a dump but don’t wash my hand crowd.

    I can’t believe we are still dealing with this virus! My adult daughter tested positive last night she works at a child care facility and off course no one is being careful no mask no distancing nothing! They just keep spreading it ughhh

    Completely agree. This is milder than the Flu at least.

    But the spanish flu didn't came from a lab..and as far as I know, didn't was funded from US government..

    What's the difference whether it came from a Chinese lab or not?  Are you going to throw away your cell phone and computer to protest the Chinese?

    Your certainty about it coming from a lab is sourced where?

    duh, it cant definitively be disproved so that is the proof.

    its so fucking funny, I mean really. Since this began China's economy is doing very badly. 

    So what would have been the point? to create something then not have an effective means of control so as not to devastate your own country? then have the vaccine your country crested to combat this be very ineffective against?

    again, what was the point then?

    Or, as humanity does from time to time, it gets ahead of itself and starts creating virus strains as part of research and it got leaked.  Called gain of function research.  I think it is more silly to think that it wasn't leaked accidentally, but I don't act condescending to those who think that.

    while plausible, its equally so that a zooinotic jumped as has happened often enough over time.

    so in my view it comes down to whats probable , both could be. given conditions as described, I happen to lean natural over the synthetic , whereas some here seem to infer it was a purposeful release and not accidental as posited above.

    given the number of feces related viruses to infect humans, thats where my money is at.

    either way, its a thing to now guard against taking neccessary precautions or not as one may see fit.

    What do you mean fooled? Does it really matter what the origin is at this point? Over a million deaths just here in America even knowing where the virus originated from wouldn’t have prevented the casualties!

    You mean the lies told about the vaccine? 

    It is based on an analysis by our team at the Brown School of Public Health, in collaboration with Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, and Microsoft AI for Health showing that between January 2021 and April 2022, vaccines could have prevented at least 318,000 Covid-19 deaths. This means that at least every second person who died from Covid-19 since vaccines became available might have been saved by getting the shot.
