  1. The same basis that the CDC and many cities require masks; Most infection is into the nose or throat. Any mask of any sort is going to be a lot better than none both for stopping your infection and your spread.
  2. Nothing but full protective gear (Hazmat) will protect virtually 100% (or 95%) but a mask of decent sort will also protect you, maybe only 80%, but that's a whole lot better than zero. Washing hands/hand sanitizer helps a bunch too.

  4. .........so long as China lets us borrow in dollars.
  5. With all the borrowing governments are doing, the contrast between toilet paper and currency may diminish.
  6. I may not go back to that WalMart. They get crazy in normal times. " I said 6 feet motherfucker !" VIDEO : Woman pepper-sprays customers trying to ride elevator with her at a D.C.

  7. Can't find it right now but the NYT has an article on masks and glasses and preventing fogging today.
  8. The EU doesn't allow American chicken in bc it's chlorinated.
  9. Next thing they'll be chlorinating chicken !
  10. This one is more substanial than beard clippers. I use the lowest guard on my sides and the 5/8 on top weekly and it takes 10 minutes in the shower.
  11. !!!!!!Amazon has their favorite masks 50 for $38 shipped overnight. !!!!! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B086KMYNSS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_k.YNEbG7R3X5S edit: as of 2pm it's 4-day delivery. Amazon's often early though.
  12. Yes. Why the conspiracists were saying emergency rooms were too empty for it not to be a hoax. I'm in Kaiser and when I go to the normally-crowded medical center it's empty and you could hear a pin drop.
  13. Check the tracking # on Amazon with USPS tracking and you'll find it's probably a fake number. Also check feedback and plenty will say it's a scam. Many of us have been lulled into the fake Chinese mask deals on Amazon lately.
  14. I highly recommend the Remington Self-Haircut kit that's about $50. Guards up to 5/8 inch. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014SG66UO/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  15. What I find weird is people are not going to hospitals with heart attacks anymore.
  16. How long did it take from ordering? Almost every other source is either outrageously expensive or a con-job, (often both) I've gotten scammed on 6 orders of these from China and friends have paid $65 for US fast-ship ones like this.
  17. Masks are essential. Found a AAA deal at Newegg many people have had good luck with. Limit 1. 50 masks shipped in 2 days 1st class in US for $29 shipped. It says backordered but after I placed the order a woman phoned me an hour later to verify correct apt number at my address and said they were coming from Newegg 1st class shipped today. Best bargain I've seen for same day US ship from a big company. You're not charged until it's shipped. These are by far the most comfortable masks, although they don't last many uses. https://www.newegg.com/lemi-fn32-001-face-mask/p/N82E16887879010?Item=N82E16887879010&cm_mmc=snc-facebook-_-sr-_-orc-_-na&fbclid=IwAR0209fCE9bukQlgPmtBwIg3rG5vOgR6KXiGyGwz5Wbg7p0RxTLFaY8JodE
  18. Germany is opening up shops and stores beginning today after a month of closure: https://de.finance.yahoo.com/nachrichten/ladenöffnungen-keine-kunden-ohne-masken-062656974.html
  19. every situation is different.
  20. Nice to hear the variety is there but once you go black Italian Roast or Pike you can never go back.

  22. Experts say it may be time for grocery stores to ban customers from coming inside https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/19/business/grocery-stores-coronavirus-pickup-delivery
  23. FYI coronavirus bingewatchers: Watching Better Call Saul on Netflix I discovered the world of opening up certain, even future, episodes through VPN. The licensing issues are mostly US so VPNs often allow you to watch episodes not available, or only available for a fee. For example Seasons 1-4 are available on US Netflix free. On AMC season 5 episodes are available for 2 weeks after first airing only and other Season 5 episodes are very expansive on Prime, etc. However setting my VPN to Berlin ( a Non-P2P VPN) and signing into Netflix from there (it takes a couple tries before Netflix relents), all 10 Season 5 episodes are available for free immediately. This may well work for many other series. I use AVG VPN which is free for 7 days (or $10 for 5 machines for 1 year on Newegg) and easy to use but there are many available. Of course one is using VPN for privacy, not to evade fees.
  24. I'm not sure China verifies items being shipped like USPS does. And the Chinese companies give fake (or Chinese) shipping numbers that USPS doesn't recognize. I've had many Chinese packages show up in under 2 weeks, regardless of "estimated arrival", and I've had many never show up. I'm surprised Amazon lets some of these firms get away with so much. Iseem to have better luck on Ebay with Chinese shippers.
  25. Mail (and police) are essential. From a Maryland town on Facebook: Taneytown Police Department April 14 at 2:28 PM · Please remember to put pants on before leaving the house to check your mailbox. You know who you are. This is your final warning. 3.1K3.1K 1.3K Comments8K Shares
