Dallas Co, TX new record for cases and deaths today with 601/20.
I mean, you know…I’m sure the masked woman had every right to be upset, but I don’t know…perhaps if you get that riled up about someone not social distancing, you shouldn’t dine in a restaurant right now. Curbside pickup might be a better option.

SC numbers today:
-New record high over 1700, a massive increase from previous high
-positive rate back at 19% after dropping from 20 to 15% yesterday (Means they’ve scaled testing massively but are still way behind what we need)
-Hospitalizations flat, deaths flat

Also I found out that my sister is basically in the same boat as I am. A co-worker was in a wedding, and the groom tested positive. The coworker had been at work a week knowing she was exposed, hadn’t gotten tested, and they didn’t even make her go home. She’s now gotten tested but hasn’t gotten results. My sister works at a hospital. We are all fucked.

You seem to be confusing introversion with depression. There are many introverts with excellent mental health, and there are many extroverts who are clinically depressed.

“all lives are precious”
bet they would have phrased that differently a couple of years ago
Wife’s best friend’s nanny just tested positive, has been in and out of best friend’s house every day for weeks. Wife took a walk, outside with face coverings (bandana on my wife, not sure what the other wore), with best friend on Saturday.
Looking forward to Wall Street giving back that $1.5 Trillion from March.

I guess man. Maybe I’m just rude. But the margin of error on this is pretty important and I can always err on the side of caution.[/quote]
That’s great for you, personally, but people making decisions with limited resources need to know what the main dangers are and are not so they don’t wind up doing things that are counterproductive. I guess the CDC could just say “we have no idea how this spreads, you’re all on your own” and you’d be happy but that’s simply not true and not helpful.
Straight-up supervillain behavior from USA#1.

Tables 1A and 1P seem pretty important
It isn’t a game changer and in any case a lot of governments can simply say lol patents.

Gilead will have to allow other companies to produce it for a fee under their patent or risk that countries will just pass legislation to void the patent or set the fee for them.
Just btw hospitals are all in on preventing smear transmission. We do contact precautions (reserved for MRSA and the like) on top of airborne precautions for all Covid patients. Also just got an email from my other job (tiny rural hospital) that the county health department is recommended every one in my department to get a Covid test. Apparently 2 of my coworkers are poz.
Edit: The next chapter should definitely be titled Covid-19: Ooops.

Watching Fauci respond to Rand reminds me of why it’s just literally impossible to be pro-science and a Republican. Fauci speaks in a measured tone and doesn’t overstep his knowledge; Paul just soapboxes his worthless counterfactual assertions with no regard To nuance or the facts at hand
