Competing goals

There’s not going to be any ā€œsocietyā€.

Exactly backwards. Your fear does not trump my rights.

What’s selfish? IMO are those staying home and relaying on other people to pick up or pay for your slacking. That IMO is selfish.

As for America meeting my needs. I haven’t ask our ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā–  goverment for one damn thing or penny in my entire life except to stay the ā– ā– ā– ā–  out of it. And goverment can’t even do that.

Not sure if you’ve seen this, but seems to be informative. Maybe it has your answer?

I don’t think there will be a vaccine.

Yes. Going to finish off my brother camper. Order some materials for one job and have backhoe coming for a another. Oh and I have some tile to set. Then hopefully when things settle down fireplace mantel with built in bookshelves.

You see what I’m getting at? I’ve put my life on hold for almost 8 weeks now. Time to get with it again.

But apparently ā€œsomeā€ people had found their new found life more appealing.

I agree that the state’s downward slope is steeper than King Co.
So it would be really useful information if we knew what the more urban areas are doing (or not doing) to cause so many new infections.

Wait a minute. No one owes anyone a damn thing. That means I don’t owe anyone anything in taxes that I’m currently working to provide the basement dwellers a government sit back and get fat check. So ā– ā– ā– ā–  it! If everyone is on there own, then let’s make it so!

Precisely. If I have to build safe rooms or even private fortress I’m gong to build something somewhere. I’ll find something to do.

By the time it comes out it may not be needed. I still like to know more about the anti-body tests.

Nightlife, drugs, tight living quarters etc to name a few things.

I see homosexual neighborhoods are keeping things safe. :crazy_face:

I do. Probably about 30% effective.

Nothing. It’s a density problem.

You can come down here and work on my place all you want to.

Asymptomatic carriers are a far bigger issue than those who are symptomatic.

If someone looks like hell generally and has the symptoms they are very easy to identify and send home.

To them it’s all the gov’ts money so those of us who think were entitled to keep as much as possible of what we earn are greedy while those who covet what we earn and accumulate are not.

Jabberwockies have taken control of the Democratic Party.

Yes, thanks, I look at this daily.
Unfortunately it doesn’t address what people are/are not doing to keep infections continuing in spite of all the mitigations. I’ve looked and haven’t found any data about that.

If it’s a matter of people not being mindful of what they touch, not washing hands and/or touching their face, then I’m comfortable I can keep doing those things well.
If it’s people just being close to an infected person who’s not coughing or sneezing, even just briefly like grocery shopping, that’s going to be a lot harder to mitigate.

I’d like to see a little more granularity.
Why is it still spreading in spite of unprecedented mitigations?
What are people not doing to get us closer to zero?

There’s no evidence of such casual transmission with this disease.
