Yup, we are kind of conditioned to ignore medical advice that might be inconvenient. Might this change that? I truly think not, but we shall see.
No logic to panic. Your analytical brain shuts down. Thatās when people get fucking terrifying.
Same with the Walmart I was at, tonight. Toilet paper, bottled water, hand sanitizer. But Kleenex is fully stocked (flu symptoms, people. You will want it.) and tons and tons of makeup removal wipes, but no hand wipes. Guess what is basically soap on a cloth? Using a sink is preferable, but these are better than nothing when you donāt have one.
āRationalā is not driving people.
Good advice, anytime. Those things are incubators for Noro.
Havenāt you heard? Costcoās out of everything!
Oh damn it, I just got the missus to understand that the whole Vitamin C thing was an epic Dunning Krugerism.
Le sigh.
Work is making all of us who donāt need to be there work from home the next three weeks. Ugh.

So very, very fucked.

I didnāt see the interview, but possibly this is on the minds of footie reporters because of the cancellations in Serie A, or perhaps upcoming Champions League trips to countries like Italy and Germany where the virus is well-established. These soccer stadiums hold a lot of people.
They tell me that I need to wash my hands like a surgeon, and not touch my face. The not infrequent sneezing, and the constant itching add an extra layer of complication.
WTF? No, you know what, I do not want to know!
Did they use protection!?
Nah, Iām not looking either
Sneezing on her would be so satisfying. (Spitting even more so, but it would be harder to pretend that was an accident.)
āAs the coronavirus spreads, one study predicts that even the best-case scenario is 15 million dead and a $2.4 trillion hit to global GDPā
Headlines like this make me want to stay in bed.
Thanks for this. The sun doesnāt shine a whole lot in SE Michigan, so natural absorption is harder to obtain here. Itās now on my errand list for today.
