Riff Raff,

I'm sorry you have to put up with that crap at work. The anti-mask league feels compelled to be nasty about the mask issue. I don't understand their vicious attitude about it, but it must be some kind of coping mechanism for their own fear. Otherwise they wouldn't care.

Hang in there. It takes guts to steer your own course rather than following the herd.
 Quoting: Serenity Now


When I'm in public in my scrubs people look at me differently if I DON'T have my mask on. If I'm in regular clothes without a mask they don't even blink an eye. The psychological impact this is having on people is fascinating to watch.
 Quoting: Tarnished Halo


I get onto my wife shopping around her scrubs after work.

A lot of people look at nurses wearing scrubs, asking themselves, did he/she just complete a shift?

For heavens sake, after your shift, go home and take a shower and change clothes.

And do not tell me you were shopping before you went to work..

Effing change your nasty scrubs.

Cali sitting at +6,187, still waiting on San Diego to report. This summer is gonna hurrrrrrt.

hiding
 Quoting: Vegz


Vegz, don't want to sound overly critical but worldometer is a very flawed indicator when they change to tracking by county. At some point they went to full doom-porn mode and are just trying to report the highest somewhat justifiable number.

I try to report on the numbers with all the bits of information in the proper context whenever I can and have seen these speculative numbers fall on their ass time over time. I'm sure Cali will report a new high tomorrow but that is meaningless without knowing how many were tested and what hospitalizations look like.

On a unrelated note: Trail members don't get to pm? I feel cheated out of my karma =\

Yes, but they also get the timing wrong so now and then. I use them for my country numbers and so do most news sources. It's not the full truth but the best approximation we have if you want reliable information.
 Quoting: Dutchy20


Ok gotcha, but like I said yesterday, Worldometers pulls numbers directly from the county's dept of public health site, at least for California, so should be fairly accurate. At least for my county it has been.

Anyway, Morning team. coffee4

I had those problems, too, until I was informed by wool workers what was going on and that it had nothing to do with pure wool.

For garments which touch the body go with the finer fiber breed’s wool. Avoid treated wool. Avoid “machine washable” merino, too, which has had it’s scales chemically removed and thusly rendering wool’s golden qualities worthless, IMO.

Most American’s have never felt or seen high quality wool. Vast difference to the hive and allergy inducing garbage that passes for wool in the US.

I'd appreciate any examples of what to look for, key terms, where to look, etc.
 Quoting: Larry D. Croc

 Quoting: sorta.morta


Hey guys, best place to start looking is “organic wool diapers for sale”. These will be the people who will have access to sources of the right unprocessed fiber. There may even be enterprising people who will do custom orders at places like Etsy.

Avoid the ones selling chemically dyed or “machine washable”.

All of my personal fiber sources are too old now, and too general, to help you now with this.

I'll be cautious here, Dutchy, and not state categorically that Cuomo did, but I know that DeBlasio of NYC was advising people in the early days to ignore social distancing, to "go to the movies, go see a show" in direct opposition to what was already being suggested about self-isolation. My memory, which can be tricky at times, says Cuomo was beating the same drum at that time as well.
 Quoting: Larry D. Croc


u R correct Croc. i am no supporter for GAYMO but he did beef the hospital capacity b4 the storm.NY State was readied b4 the testing was fixed.not saying there weren't mistakes but He didn't have his head in the sand like many states now.
 Quoting: JAZZz50


I do not contest. Your are right in your suggestions. That being that, Coumo called out he needed help. Arizona and Texas are saying everything is fine whilst they need help.

I don't care about what your politics are, the situation we are seeing in Texas and Arizona means that the local government has lost control of the situation. They fucked up, was bound to happen regardless of party.

It would really help if we could trust the federal government to encourage counties to report accurate numbers, which they have not.
 Quoting: Dutchy20


I am in Texas and now personally know 26 different people who have had this all in the last 4 weeks. None had it the same way. Some had fever some did not. Some had stomach issues some just had headache and aches and chills and some had cough and fever while some had stomach issues. Most lost taste of smell and taste. However, NONE of them was that sick. None were sick for more than 2-5 days. Some tested positive and the only symptom they ever had was the loss of taste and smell. Now that a lot of Texans see not many are getting that sick nobody is taking precautions. People are put in large numbers, going to bars, water parks, large gatherings, malls etc. nobody will slow down and no way they can lock us down again. If they try we willl just say we are gathering as a “ peaceful protest”.
 Quoting: TxGirlieTX

When you know a 1000 or 10,000 people across a wide age range and nobody has to go to hospital or dies, that would be a more realistic assessment.

Sounds like someone knows more than they are letting on. First time I’ve seen a restaurant go straight for the HVAC renovations.

18 coronvairus cases linked to outbreak at Harper's Restaurant in East Lansing

The health department advised anyone who was at Harper's between June 12 and June 20 to monitor themselves for symptoms of the disease.

All those who tested positive are between the ages of 19 and 23 and around half are connected with Michigan State University, officials said.

We 'have chosen to close temporarily to do two things – implement a program to eliminate lines, and to modify our HVAC system to install an air purifying technology that will remove 99.4% of the COVID-19 virus (including other viruses, bacteria and mold) while the air is being conditioned and re-circulated," the restaurant said Monday on its Facebook page.


[link to amp.lansingstatejournal.com (secure)]
 Quoting: Guythu


My hunch is - Still not enough of a precaution.

Sorry, but restaurants are not going to safely work until this pandemic is over, IMO.
 Quoting: sos


I agree sos. The problem in essence boils down to 'shared air', any air conditioning system is designed around circulating air around a place towards a central place. So even if that system kills X% of the virus in the air it is still pulled towards it around the people between a infected person and the system and then pushed out over a greater area.

Even with .6% of the virus left the greater area == more potential exposure.
 Quoting: Dutchy20

All central -air conditioning systems recirculate inside air for efficiency. The only way to have virus-free air would be to draw air in from the outside. However the air-conditioning equipment would have to be massively over-sized, which would costly and may not even be possible.
