Coronavirus (Covid-19) Discussion

The professional social worker in me understands that just as wealth and the trappings of wealth are inherited, that poverty and the trappings of poverty are equally inherited. The 'Stuart' in me, however, sometimes thinks 'feed em to the lions'. It is a perpetual dichotomy I'm trapped in

Has to be some formaldehyde in the ol Mickey D’s, thus would explain his generally preserved chicken skin aesthetic. Can’t imagine anything is helping the hair.

I don't want to ruin the good mood here. But I think it is entirely possible that this whole bit is a ruse so that there are no more debates, no vice president debates, and then 45 can magically announce his recovery (from using hydroxycloroquine, injecting bleach or whatever he wants to say).

Totally agree. I don't buy it one bit. Distraction from recent events.

Breaking news is they are taking 45 to Walter Reed. So it could possibly be true.

I'm torn about that. I feel like him getting this is worse (in his mind) than performing poorly at the debates. Especially with how much he mocked Biden for wearing masks. And, in his mind, he probably feels that he was the rockstar of that last debate. He doesn't want to miss another one. Also, his administration hasn't been great at keeping secrets. If this were fake, I think it would leak very quickly.

At a very large veterinary hospital I worked at, the surgical team was called in after hours for an emergency. When the team arrived, the cleaning crew had not finished cleaning the suite for the day. As the cleaning crew was exiting and the surgery team was entering they passed each other and the head surgeon noticed that one of the cleaning crew had torn a hole in their facemask (which was mandatory for anyone in the suite at all times). When confronted about the condition of the mask, the employee stated that it was difficult to breathe with the mask on, and the hole made it a lot easier.
There were numerous meetings and employee counseling/training sessions because of that incident and how/when/why masks needed to be worn.
The sum of this story is to make sure you wear a mask properly. Over the nose and mouth and please don’t cut holes in them so that you can breathe easier!
