Well looks like the WH even is going on as planned

A source familiar with planning for the event told CBS News that 2,000 invitations had been issued. All attendees are required to bring a mask and will be instructed to wear it on the White House complex. All attendees must also complete a COVID-19 screening, consisting of a temperature check and brief questionnaire.

I really understand that folks want life to be normal......

But for fucking hell ..... it isn’t. And that event proves how ignorant so many have become.

Gotta go now and prepare for the golden age.

Hope when I return here there’s more good news besides Chris Christie being released from the hospital. That’s enough to get me through the day today.

Good morning, fam.

Thank you to all who wished us well with my report of COVID close contact and testing. Montana is presently a crapshoot.

My daughter, 20, son, 17, and myself have had positive tests. Haven’t heard back yet from my staff.

I would like to keep a rolling journal here of how we each progress through this, if no one minds terribly.

My first symptom was burning eyes, watery nose just like it was a big allergy attack. Shortly after onset of those symptoms, within an hour, I had a dry cough, nausea, diarrhea, my neck locked up, muscle fatigue and a migraine set in. My muscle symptoms may not be typical because of pre-existing conditions. In fact I should likely be lumped in with the “underlying conditions” group. However, I’m 5’9, 120lbs, healthy and active and I take a daily regimen of supplements including vit C, D, zinc, oreganol, etc, due to diet restrictions. Over the next 3 days I had a fever, on and off but never over 100, and the cough became steady, every breath and every word I speak a cough is there. But there’s no mucous collecting, no fluid building up. I also became quite ill a few weeks ago. All the same symptoms as now. Went for a COVID test august 7, which was negative. But I don’t get sick. Haven’t had so much as a cold in 10 years. I think it’s possible that this occurrence is actually a recurrence and previous test was a false negative or not enough antibodies to be isolated.

Daughter: let me first say that I believe she had this already in February. In that case she felt fine one day and the next she couldn’t breathe, described it as an elephant on her chest, had 104 fever, body aches. She went to minor emergency. They suggested she go to ER for because she was dehydrated. Her O-sat was 83%. This current infection started for her about a month ago with unexplained hives breaking out over her entire body, some intermittent cold symptoms, felt like she had a sinus/ear infection, diarrhea and nausea. She went to the doctor for that and they sent her home telling her it was probably irritation from the wildfire smoke. Those symptoms have all continued with the addition in the last 5 days of body aches, burning eyes, extreme neck stiffness, swollen glands, painful kidneys/back. She went to the doctor with those symptoms 2 days before we went for the COVID test and was told she was fine and the hives and back pain were probably from work, where her building is not air conditioned and she was processing a lot of books. As of now she is still experiencing all these symptoms and extreme fatigue, can’t taste or smell, headache. She has run an intermittent low fever. She is healthy, athletic, 6’ tall 185lbs.

Son: I believe he already had it once in May. He had a co-worker with a positive test and had cold/flu symptoms within 24 hours of her report. This current infection hit him the same way. Quickly, cold/flu symptoms and he can’t taste or smell, headache that he describes as “dagger stuck through his brain right through the middle of his forehead”. Shortness of breath and unproductive deep cough, vomiting. He has also had the intermittent low fever. He is 6’5, 210lbs, healthy and athletic. 14 kids in his friend group are now confirmed positive.

My youngest son, 13, also had cold symptoms around the first of august. Was exposed to a confirmed positive at a soccer tournament. Has been experiencing cold symptoms again for about 2 weeks. He is 5’5, 100 lbs healthy and athletic. There are currently 117 quarantined students/staff at his school.

My oldest daughter, 26, her husband, 28, both who are average height, overweight and sedentary, and their 10 month old had the same symptoms in that august time frame, were tested negative at that time as well. the baby is currently experiencing them again. There was a confirmed case at his daycare 2 weeks ago. His mom has a confirmed case reported at her work 2 days ago. They are bank tellers and share the headsets at the drive thru.

Sorry for the wall of text.

Much love and many blessings! Stay safe y’all!!

And just because I am in problem solving mode, but can’t actively participate.....it’s weird and I did participate locally, which did implement a few ideas and then flopped. I kind of feel bad for them.

Moving on...... that weird 2014 thread about October 13, 2020. I had an IBM dream so I woke up wondering if Titor just had years wrong. Especially since Wordsie keeps fucking around ;)

[link to aux.avclub.com (secure)]

My starting point for wrong years ..... Titor said the final Olympic Games was 2004. And then shortly after civil war.....

Well the summer Olympics were canceled ... and we are unfortunately on the brink of social instability.....even if someone is stirring it....the outcome is the same.

Does anyone have an old 2000 year Titor list thread saved?

So our healthcare system and our mindset needs to be adjusted.

Covid is our scariest flu strain. Ok I get it.
With possible lingering effects, not 100% understood.

Now if Covid was contagious before symptoms arose, then I would be worried.

Every time anything (technology, diseases) is introduced into our lives worldwide, this always has an affect on life and death percentages.
Covid is no different.

Always in the end survival of the fittest. That has never changed either.

The bar for life expectancy has been lowered.

The same way we tackle life with all the other deadly possible outcomes.


Very interesting to see the outcome after a few years. But i certainly do not see Covid causing any version of a societal collapse or economic collapse. Nothing to indicate doom is on the horizon because of a deadly version of the flu.

Maybe, peoples personal mindset collapse is the only thing I see becoming a problem. Some people (control freaks) have a hard time adjusting to new things. Is the only thing I see.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79161915


Your first problem.....

It is contagious before symptoms show.

And I hope many of us are wrong. But I wasn’t wrong about semiconductors bottoming out (2006....quantum tunneling) and moving to more chips versus smaller chips.....so I don’t hold out much hope that I am wrong on this issue either.

Yes, my timing was off because I thought gain of function would show up sooner. But that ugly truth is still out there.

Actually, the first problem is, SC2 is *not* a flu strain. It's not related to influenza at all.

If you want honest, intelligent discussion about why this needs to be respected, you have to cross that hurdle first.

What does Birx mean by silent spread?

No symptoms?
No reporting of it?
Made up phrase?
 Quoting: Moniker Shmoniker


It is an odd phrase.
I would think “asymptomatic”
But why not just at it?

Could it be “airborne” spread.
 Quoting: Guythu


People that become infected and experience symptoms so mild that they don't get tested and so they continue the spread without any kind of record of it?

Not quite the same thing as asymptomatic spread. Just a thought.

Data point on the economy:

As most know on here, I own a small manufacturing company in Houston. My son is the Pres. and I work out of my home office.

This past week our orders went to near ZERO. It is very similar to the time before the 2016 election; companies put orders on hold until after they see who wins.

Even our DoD parts customer has ceased orders. I think DoD may even be slowing purchases to hold onto budget in case there are cuts.

My son, who runs the company better than I ever did, LAID OFF 90% of our workers yesterday. With lay off letters, they can apply for unemployment.

Its sad for them because we had a great year up to now with lots of overtime paid out.

What did the workers save? ZERO. For example, one of my nephews traded in his hot car for a hotter car with bigger payments.

I warned them all back in Feb. to save money and store food sufficient for months. None listened.

Summary: we are heading into a Perfect Storm of pandemic, economic depression, and political violence.
 Quoting: darth


Yeah. Sadly, this is an accurate assessment. Raffette works from home the week before the election and took the week of the election off. I'll be topping off our fuel preps and we won't be going anywhere at all for those two weeks unless we have no choice.

Can you start manufacturing those nice armed drones that can catch zombies 1000k away from above I’m wanting for my preps?
 Quoting: sos


Nope. I know you are joking, but we don't do electronics.

OTOH, I think it would be quite feasible to have 7.62 belt fed semi-auto guns on top of towers. I have been thinking you could have a unit that is hoisted up a steel pipe about 100 feet up to cover a wide area. There are scopes available that have day/night vision capability and electronic output.

An operator in a bunker could aim and fire the gun. 7.62 can reach out over 1000 meters.

I would suggest a minimum of three towers which can cover each other. The units can be lowered to resupply ammo.

Each gun unit will require armor and the gun/scope has to be in a tube with baffles to keep the zombies from shooting back.

Oh, and for drones, you just need Cajuns with 12 gauge shotguns. Or you could get serious and use 10 gauge with tungsten shot for more range.

For pickles we were just extra careful to keep the area of the pickles germ free.

Jams, fruit, veggies were hot hot hot. The floor is lava hot.

All utensils, jars, lids were washed. And then sanitized in hot rolling boiling water.

Lids were hot boiling sanitized only.

All things done only as needed.

Jars, lids, rims were hot hot hot..... put the whatever you were doing into them, sealed them. If no lids suckered down with an hour or so..... into the fridge they went to be consumed that week. Or with pickles, jams.... a few months. But as long as you were boiling and dishing and then sealing while hot, very rarely did this happen.

No cases of botulism in my family.

BS. Prove Covid is spread before symptoms.

I sat next to a positive case of Covid on Tuesday (Test date) and Wednesday. No symptoms. Me Nor my fishing partner contracted Covid during this visit for 48 hours.

We left. Two days later on Friday she had symptoms. (Confirmation Thursday night). Her husband tested positive 5 days later.

President trump would have gotten plenty people sick if he was contagious before his symptoms began.

Everyone that got positive from the super spreader event including trump . Those group of people including trump did not spread during the week because he had no symptoms.

So our healthcare system and our mindset needs to be adjusted.

Covid is our scariest flu strain. Ok I get it.
With possible lingering effects, not 100% understood.

Now if Covid was contagious before symptoms arose, then I would be worried.

Every time anything (technology, diseases) is introduced into our lives worldwide, this always has an affect on life and death percentages.
Covid is no different.

Always in the end survival of the fittest. That has never changed either.

The bar for life expectancy has been lowered.
Education and Awareness for Covid
The same way we tackle life with all the other deadly possible outcomes.


Very interesting to see the outcome after a few years. But i certainly do not see Covid causing any version of a societal collapse or economic collapse. Nothing to indicate doom is on the horizon because of a deadly version of the flu.

Maybe, peoples personal mindset collapse is the only thing I see becoming a problem. Some people (control freaks) have a hard time adjusting to new things. Is the only thing I see.

Your first problem.....

It is contagious before symptoms show.

And I hope many of us are wrong. But I wasn’t wrong about semiconductors bottoming out (2006....quantum tunneling) and moving to more chips versus smaller chips.....so I don’t hold out much hope that I am wrong on this issue either.

Yes, my timing was off because I thought gain of function would show up sooner. But that ugly truth is still out there.

Yes. You are full of bullshit.

Second, I truly hope you are aware that you can test negative for several weeks and still be a virus factory.

Just be mindful of your symptoms. And don’t be such a complete tool.

And like Riff said..... it is Not an influenza virus.

Pay more attention. Sorry that you were exposed. Good luck.

Good morning, fam.

Thank you to all who wished us well with my report of COVID close contact and testing. Montana is presently a crapshoot.

My daughter, 20, son, 17, and myself have had positive tests. Haven’t heard back yet from my staff.

I would like to keep a rolling journal here of how we each progress through this, if no one minds terribly.

My first symptom was burning eyes, watery nose just like it was a big allergy attack. Shortly after onset of those symptoms, within an hour, I had a dry cough, nausea, diarrhea, my neck locked up, muscle fatigue and a migraine set in. My muscle symptoms may not be typical because of pre-existing conditions. In fact I should likely be lumped in with the “underlying conditions” group. However, I’m 5’9, 120lbs, healthy and active and I take a daily regimen of supplements including vit C, D, zinc, oreganol, etc, due to diet restrictions. Over the next 3 days I had a fever, on and off but never over 100, and the cough became steady, every breath and every word I speak a cough is there. But there’s no mucous collecting, no fluid building up. I also became quite ill a few weeks ago. All the same symptoms as now. Went for a COVID test august 7, which was negative. But I don’t get sick. Haven’t had so much as a cold in 10 years. I think it’s possible that this occurrence is actually a recurrence and previous test was a false negative or not enough antibodies to be isolated.

Daughter: let me first say that I believe she had this already in February. In that case she felt fine one day and the next she couldn’t breathe, described it as an elephant on her chest, had 104 fever, body aches. She went to minor emergency. They suggested she go to ER for because she was dehydrated. Her O-sat was 83%. This current infection started for her about a month ago with unexplained hives breaking out over her entire body, some intermittent cold symptoms, felt like she had a sinus/ear infection, diarrhea and nausea. She went to the doctor for that and they sent her home telling her it was probably irritation from the wildfire smoke. Those symptoms have all continued with the addition in the last 5 days of body aches, burning eyes, extreme neck stiffness, swollen glands, painful kidneys/back. She went to the doctor with those symptoms 2 days before we went for the COVID test and was told she was fine and the hives and back pain were probably from work, where her building is not air conditioned and she was processing a lot of books. As of now she is still experiencing all these symptoms and extreme fatigue, can’t taste or smell, headache. She has run an intermittent low fever. She is healthy, athletic, 6’ tall 185lbs.

Son: I believe he already had it once in May. He had a co-worker with a positive test and had cold/flu symptoms within 24 hours of her report. This current infection hit him the same way. Quickly, cold/flu symptoms and he can’t taste or smell, headache that he describes as “dagger stuck through his brain right through the middle of his forehead”. Shortness of breath and unproductive deep cough, vomiting. He has also had the intermittent low fever. He is 6’5, 210lbs, healthy and athletic. 14 kids in his friend group are now confirmed positive.

My youngest son, 13, also had cold symptoms around the first of august. Was exposed to a confirmed positive at a soccer tournament. Has been experiencing cold symptoms again for about 2 weeks. He is 5’5, 100 lbs healthy and athletic. There are currently 117 quarantined students/staff at his school.

My oldest daughter, 26, her husband, 28, both who are average height, overweight and sedentary, and their 10 month old had the same symptoms in that august time frame, were tested negative at that time as well. the baby is currently experiencing them again. There was a confirmed case at his daycare 2 weeks ago. His mom has a confirmed case reported at her work 2 days ago. They are bank tellers and share the headsets at the drive thru.

Sorry for the wall of text.

Much love and many blessings! Stay safe y’all!!

I'm sorry to hear this and hope everyone recovers with no issues. Please keep us posted on how everything progresses. When my friends have had positive tests I've bugged the shit out of them daily until they were on the road to recovery, then I bothered them weekly and now they just offer up that they're fine. LOL EVERY friend of mine has recovered with no issues. I was worried about one for a bit, but he's back to normal.

Since I'm in the medical field I like to hear how things progress so when I have a pt that has differing symptoms than the norm I can recognize it and make suggestions to the doc.
People suck.

FORT WORTH STOCK SHOW RODEO CANCELED

The organization states: “numerous infectious disease and public health professionals indicate the Stock Show – with more than 1.2 million guests, exhibitors and competitors converging on the Will Rogers complex – would rank as a “very high risk” for further spread of COVID-19 and potentially impact populations and healthcare systems in Fort Worth and beyond the North Texas area."

HB.... the way I was taught in rural Texas never involved a pressure cooker. And all those folks survived the Great Depression and lived into their late 90s.

:)

Just out of curiosity, how were you taught? Feed me your knowledge, I am hungry.

For pickles we were just extra careful to keep the area of the pickles germ free.

Jams, fruit, veggies were hot hot hot. The floor is lava hot.

All utensils, jars, lids were washed. And then sanitized in hot rolling boiling water.

Lids were hot boiling sanitized only.

All things done only as needed.

Jars, lids, rims were hot hot hot..... put the whatever you were doing into them, sealed them. If no lids suckered down with an hour or so..... into the fridge they went to be consumed that week. Or with pickles, jams.... a few months. But as long as you were boiling and dishing and then sealing while hot, very rarely did this happen.

No cases of botulism in my family.

Cheers CC, that's how I've always done it too.
