Yes, he did well. Most had Hilary as 95%+, I think NYT had 85% and he had ~70%.
Was it dramatically different than a regular cold?
I donât mean to minimize it. Colds are terrible. I fucking hate getting them. My COVID was milder than my typical cold but not by that much.
Severe muscle aches and some headaches were the key symptoms outside of a cold
This isnât quite charitable enough. Nate surely understands that biology is complicated and it would be good to get expert input on questions like this. The problem is that expert input is only useful if you can rely on the expert giving you their good faith opinion. If all youâre going to get from the expert is advocacy, itâs better to âdo your own researchâ even if you donât have much hope of getting the research right.
Basically, as is the case with many fast-food chains, In-N-Outâs published policies (theyâre on the companyâs website) make it so many of its workers have no option but to come to work if theyâre not feeling well. Those workers, who have been placed in an impossible spot, are also not allowed to wear a mask if they know (or think) they might have an illness which can be passed on unless they have a doctorâs note.
Thatâs because the company has a policy, which went into effect July 14, which bans employees from wearing protective masks unless they have authorization from a doctor,
âWe are introducing new mask guidelines that emphasize the importance of customer service and the ability to show our Associates smiles and other facial features while considering the health and wellbeing of all individuals,â the company shared in a message to employees. âWe believe this policy will also help to promote clear and effective communication both with our Customers and among our Associates.â
Thatâs a policy that defies science and medical logic, which puts customers at risk, according to MetroPlusHealth Deputy Chief Medical Officer Dr. Julie Myers who answered questions from TheStreet via email.
Come to work sick, but youâll have to pay for a doctorâs visit to wear a mask to keep from getting everyone sick. We must consider the health and wellbeing of all individuals.

Welp. Never eating that garbage again
the have to come in sick is such bullshitâIâm sure the anti mask thing is because of their customers not wanting to see that though.
I donât think it is that at all. I think its simply that the owners are politically motivated and this is one outlet for them.
Seriously doubt that masking or not masking of employees affected consumer decision making on whether to go to in-n-out.

Good faith opinion in this case is such a BS phrase. Almost all reputable scientists agree on one theory- so therefore they canât be trusted to argue in good faith.
Itâs like choosing not to trust mathematicians that all concur that 2+2=4.
Whataburger for life
Hmmm, so your preferred explanation also predicts that people will find the unanimous mathematical consensus around 2 + 2 = 4 suspicious and it will make then doubt the good faith of mathematicians. As an empiricist, perhaps you should do some observations and see if they support your hypothesis?
You canât trust those bad-faith professional virologists. Nate had no choice but to listen to the good-faith science reporting of Joe Rogan and Russel Brand.

A burger joint would be skewed toward right wing assholes as customers so I believe it. I donât have any evidence for it but Iâve seen customers interact with people working before and damnit Iâm sticking to my perceived biases.

True but RWNJs need to go out and eat a bunch of red meat to a) own the libs and b) get some before the (((New World Order))) steals all their meat and forces them to eat bugs.
Also, if you want bible verses printed on your burger and drink packaging, In N Out is your spot
I used to wonder why hard core Christians are so good at fast food. Now I think itâs because they have zero qualms about stuff like worker exploitation.
You say that like you think the non-Christian chains care about their workers.
