Coronavirus, Covid 19 Discussion and How It Has Affected Your Daily Life Chat Thread

[Bigbluefrog]

Bigbluefrog,
I've read and re-read your sentence above several times and I cannot understand what you're saying. Can you maybe rephrase ....?

" And doing covid tracking they discovered restaurant and bars do not increase covid numbers less than 3%."

(Does this mean restaurants and bars increase covid numbers MORE than 3%?)

'do not increase' and 'less than' is confusing.

Less than 3 percent - actually less than 1.5 % of covid cases are tracked to restaurants and bars. Covid tracing shows bars and restaurants are not a major cause of infection. Sorry it was confusing.

Good news! Our numbers are down.
So in A rural community we had 100 active cases
Which was about 0.6 % of population less than 1%. Now it is 0.2% so we have only 36 active cases.
so I thought I would check Milwaukee and the same thing ! Less than 1 % of population has active covid. Milwaukee is a bit more challenging to do the math because it is harder to find the recovery number. Why would they not post that information?
Then again I am seeing the death rate is not different from year in the past decades.
In Wisconsin alone 52,000 people die a year from all causes for the past decade.
That is averaged- 50k-54k a year die. So about 1000 people die a week (before covid)
now add covid- still the same number of deaths. Why is the media pushing fear instead of hope? Is this virus being used ?
The virus is real but seriously shopping at Walmart is not safer than shopping at a small business.
And doing covid tracking they discovered restaurant and bars do not increase covid numbers less than 3%. So by golly let’s shut those people down and let them starve? What is going on? The math does not lie? Can we trust media, big tech, and our political leaders to be honest? Numbers do not lie.
Anyone can check deaths in your state from previous years. See if the math is the same- my challenge to you! Understand the math and be aware. Stay healthy be kind View attachment 2452861

Report less than 1.4% data shows covid tracing of bars and restaurants Is not a threat. Less than 1.4% .

There are several more articles out too on the data.
I guess they are still learning.

Sure, it can work well in a smaller contained environment, but not overall in a larger community, towns, cities, countries.....where a positive likely has no way to know when they got it and how many people, let alone who, they were in 'contact' with.

Someone mentioned the shear work force needed to even try.
...and that people may not respond to a notification.

Or not speak or read English. That was a big problem here in calif during the chicken disease.

I've given up. Having covid totally FRIED my hair. I don't have split ends, the entire shaft is frizzed. All those lovely curls are dry, wiry and constantly snarling together. Deep conditioning and oil treatments aren't helping. Tonight, I'll give it Gramma's old-world mayonnaise treatment. If that doesn't work, I may just go ahead and dye it blue or turquoise or hot pink or some other radical color, "just because." I've always wanted to do it, but never had the nerve. If it's all got to be cut off when this is over, I might as well give it a shot. We'll see if I actually get the cojones to do it!

Try coconut oil.

Because they want us to fear and be scared.

I can’t find it for my state.

@IamRainey
Girl, you sent me down a rabbit hole. I know it was aimed at @MROO , but you hooked me too!
Looky looky...Fuzzy slipper boots using materials most of us already have around the house!
Sooo gonna do this. Might use old jeans as the bottoms too.

For SHAME!!! You needed to share this earlier than the week before Christmas! I SO would have added these to the "Must DO" list! Any more little gems hiding in your "Favorites" file?

I have to agree that it doesn't work, I live in a small town of around 2200 people. Of those 2200, about 100 people have gotten covid, myself included. When contacted by public health, it was simple. I had been around 10 people. My DH, DD, DS 2 grandkids and 5 co-workers, all of which tested neg. So go ahead and tell me where I got it from, Because I have no clue and public health told me that most people here don't know where they got it from. So if they can't figure out where I got it from out of the 100 that have it, how do you expect them to figure it out when in the bigger cities 1000's have it?

Theoretically, they'd have to trace it further, especially those co workers and all the people they had been in contact with...as well as your kids and grand kids if they don't live with you and have other contacts. Plus I believe people can be asymptomatic, and maybe even test negative(there's another rabbit hole), and still shed the virus.

They tracked mine back - three stages - to a single, careless home health care aide who thought it was okay to just "cut-back" on bar-hopping, not cut it out completely. A whole slew of her bar-buddies got sick, too. Youth! AARRGGH!
