Remember what happened with the 1976 swine flu outbreak and the rushed vaccine that killed an elevated numbers of people from GBS (death or permanent paralysis). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1976_swine_flu_outbreak

Regardless of a myriad of safety, insurance and licensing questions: how much more energy will it use (that will just add to climate change) than ground transportation?

That's ironic because the WHO supposedly doesn't use the category "pandemic" or 6-phases of pandemic anymore. https://canoe.com/news/world/who-no-longer-uses-pandemic-cat...

I'm wondering what that entails precisely to have a measurable impact. Social media and refraining from certain purchases? Organizing for future direct actions in a few months?

Amen. Rushed, sketchy, unverified stories lead to getting the facts wrong and missing implications and the bigger picture. Fools rush in.

That's your inference. It's a sign of panic buying and the inability of the supply chain to handle it. Regular buyers cannot buy things they normally buy because quantities aren't being limited and more people than usual are

Haha. Yep. WD-40 is petroleum distillates and for DIY noobs. Penetrating oil for not hot work: 90/10 vegetable oil + acetone. Much better than commercial products and very cheap. IIRC it was tested on ProjectFarm (I maybe mistaken) and

The SARS-CoV-2 test is or was $2000 without insurance. And now the private test clinics have it and get to charge whatever they want. In the past, such tests would be provided to the public for free. Instead, the poor and working-poor do wi

The simplified answer: the US is a late-stage civilization in gradual decline since either post-WW2 or about 1960. The "frog" has been "boiling" slowly for a long time and is almost cooked. See also: - America: The Fare

The latest is that ACE2 and TMPRSS2 are both needed to infect humans. There are already two compounds identified to block these pathways, one of which is already a medication used in Japan. Both are very safe with huge LD50's.

The 13th amendment loophole expressly permits slavery of prisoners. 13 a never ended the practice, it just hid it from the public and claimed to end it. And Lincoln is an overly-lionized figure that the vast majority of people are brainwash

Hand sanitizer going for $50, $100, $200 is what hoarding hath wrought. Luckily, I found a mom-and-pop etailer in CT that sold me 8x 32 oz 70% for $5 each with free shipping. (My mom, I, her neighbors and her church needed some.)

Doubtful because I bought a large monthly Pantry order yesterday that will arrive tomorrow. It may have more to do with the distance of various warehouses stocking certain items. I've ordered before where it splits up the order into di

Another technique is to insist on an agenda before any meeting, both for time to prepare and to see if it's pertinent, or the default answer is "no." Standing meetings are 99% a waste of time, usually about someone/s try

Yep. And the poor in the US will not be tested because they cannot afford the test ($2000 if negative or false negative, and ? if positive or false positive) and told by their bosses that they still have to work. In the past, say 40+ years

According to the data, it's closer to 1 week in the US. The pandemic curve latency is roughly 45 days between China and the first cases in the US. Also, the US is large and the pandemic will take more time to accelerate (or not at all)

Well, according to a Harvard epidemiologist, 40-70% of humans will contract this virus, which implies 120-168 million people will die. That's going to impact economic activity and so will a Saudi / Russian oil price war. It's
