What’s hilarious is when they say that garbage followed up with “recovered patients may only be protected for a few months”. That would mean a vaccine would provide similarly short protection. Soon you and everyone else are going to be required to get shot up every six months.
**** this piece of ****
People did wear googles, but those where also in short supply.
That's the thing. No vaccine in history has ever produced better immunity than natural immunity. If anything it is generally weaker and shorter lived. Sometimes drastically so. The only advantage (and yes depending on the virus it's a massive advantage) for vaccines is you get some level of immunity without having to suffer through the full fledged virus. The advantage here is less clear though since the large majority of cases are mild or asymptomatic. I guess the advantage may ultimately be more psychological than anything.... people will 'feel better' about reopening and getting back out there even if it isn't a silver bullet. Kind of like the masks. They may help, but they don't magically make 10,000 person protests safe if they weren't without them.
This is stupid. I saw a version of this on facebook. Seems pretty loose and unscientific. But based on this protests would have to be in the 9 category. But nope, can't do that. And yeah
Protesting are fine though.

some of this makes no fucking sense. E.g. sitting on a beach 15 feet away from another human being more dangerous than being packed into a big box store. Come on. Airplanes with their closed loop air systems safer than an outdoor pool? Get outta here.
Vaccines can provide longer protection compared with natural infection because they contain agents to boost antibody production.
The reason vaccines contain adjuvants to boost antibody production is because without them, the body could entirely, or almost entirely, ignore the antigen(s). All dead virus vaccines need them to work whatsoever. I've never seen anything indicating they provide longer protection. Which vaccines provide longer protection than natural infection? I've never heard this. Especially not for anything on the routine childhood schedule. MMR can wear off in as little as 10 years for many people (leaving aside the small percentage for whom it doesn't 'work' at all). This is the case for other viruses as well. DTaP (TDap) they recommend adults get it every 10 years for similar reasons, though admittedly that's in large part due to the tetanus component which is no longer widely available as a standalone shot. It's in large part why most of them started off with one dose but many now need one, two, or even three boosters, as we learned that the immunity often did not last.
Permanent mRNA vaccines are the solution, at least until the virus mutates significantly.
It really is a zombie outbreak!
Protesting are fine though.
Because of the singing we where told here in the Netherlands. Shouting singing lets the droplets travel further. And churches are packed and not ventilated well.

How will its importance decrease significantly without a cure?
Why is golfing so high? If I have my own cart and wipe down the beer from the cart lady, how am I worse off than taking a walk?
Protesting are fine though.
Wow. You’ve got it bad man. If you think previous Presidents weren’t liars, albeit more elegant ones perhaps, you just aren’t paying enough attention. At least Trump hasn’t managed to lie us into a war or the droning of American citizens.
This list is ridiculous. How is a public pool worse than an airplane? What’s the difference between a hair salon and a dentist? There’s so much variability within each category too.
Protesting are fine though.
the idea behind masking is to prevent you from spreading the infection. Unless you’re tearing up into someone else’s face, which likely means you’re going to be arrested for assault soon, goggles won’t be needed for that.
You keep saying we’ll need to learn to live with it: what do you think were doing now??
Why do you keep bringing up Donald Trump? Did I say anything about Trump? Why do you try to veer every conversation into your stupid politics instead of responding to the substance of a post ?

That’s too bad about NYC, they probably should open restaurants. But the point remains that with relatively simple measures we can resume economic activity without seeing a resurgence of the virus. There are places outside of the USA that have used these measures and have had far more benign outbreaks while staying relatively open.
No, it's been determined. He's a huge failure. The only question remaining is how giant of a failure will he be. I deleted your nonsense about Covid not being a world reckoning pandemic on account of that statement being hilariously stupid given the obvious facts.
Haha. Yeah trying to delete reality pretty typical honestly.
It's only world wrecking because our leaders (with a complicit media) chose that path for us.
Smart leaders (i.e. not Brazilian or American) chose that path because of the facts that this is an extremely contagious and deadly disease with no known cure or vaccine.
Yup , but preaching this here won’t help , I know I have been since January, even my own family is in denial.
You guys just aren’t that good at math. Italy has 60 million people. The US has 330 million. That’s 5.5 times more.
