Massage and Covid

[Mustang]

You are most welcome, Mr. Kyle_paul11. However, you are still wrong about a few things. I have literally been living and breathing all things COVID-19 and working 80-hour weeks trying to save lives of the millions of people I serve since this whole damn thing began. With that, I think it's fair to say that what I pull out of my brain is much more than hearsay. And it's all about health. Not sure why you don't think it has not been. If it had not been about health I wouldn't have had to work this hard to keep my people COVID-19 free. Anyway, it does not seem though that any reasoning could convince you otherwise. I'll just focus on providing my professional recommendation here for those who are interested in what I have to share.

 

Edited to add some more info: Mr. Kyle or Paul or whatever this name is

 

Looks like he got himself banned - and good riddance. Two way conversations and teachable moments good, but you can't fix that level of blind ignorance.

People have different comfort zones in choosing to get a massage or dining or airplanes based on their circumstance and judgement Whatever the circumstance be safe out there. We're fighting the virus, not each other.

It’s always “fake news” when you can’t really answer. 70 percent of all massage business are basically open in CA. If it was so much of a health hazard now, everything would still be closed. Royally piss off my friend.

The discussion here shows 2 things about Covid: that public opinion about it, and understanding the scientific aspects of it, are in different places.

Business operations will resume in full, including massage, at some point in the future. Businesses that can do so, have found a way to take into account the public health boundaries, and there are some service businesses that cannot, as the degree of social distance is incompatible with the service they provide.

The virus does not change its behavior (finding any host it can) to accommodate human needs, let alone wants.

The need for financial normalcy (and physical intimacy) has the power to negate, in public discourse, the scientific fact that the world is still struggling to stop spread, treat the illness, and save lives.

As you think about hiring, act responsibly afterwards -plan to isolate yourself as much as possible and mask up always in the 14 days after - this is the way that the impact of your decision to take personal risk stops with you. Tell people you had contact with someone who tested positive afterwards and you are acting with an abundance of caution. (Or tell them that you really just broke down and had to have a rub-n-tug...)

 

Get the massage. But be a decent person, and make the sacrifice after to not spread what might have spread to you in spite of best efforts. if you live alone and work from home it’s really easy. If there are others in your home from whom you don’t distance, change that for 14 days. The spread thrives on the notion of “it was just the one time”

 

I have to abstain, so I do.

Use Google. Type Local Massage near me. Also, Yelp is a great tool.

I’ve been saving my massage money since March, and will continue to do so until we have both a vaccine and better treatment options. Them I’m going to get a two-hour, four-handed erotic session every day for a month.

My point is... if you want to come here and state a piece of data- be prepared to back it up with a source. Otherwise you are just pulling shit out of your ass and that's ridiculous. So... where did you find the figure of 70%? Or are you just making shit up?

Why don’t you type in “massage” on Yelp and Google and calculate (based on the zip you put in) how many are currently open and taking appointments? Just STFU my dude. Massages are open and have been open. You just are refusing reality. Thai, basic, escort, therapy- BASICALLY ALL OPEN. Go hit a wall.

When I get tempted to get a massage I need to come read posts like this to remind me to resist the urge. Last one was in October 2019 so yah, it's been a while.
