The SCIENTISTS said 6 feet was good.  I know for sure you'd never doubt THE SCIENTISTS.

I imagine there is some kind of exponential risk decay curve with distancing.  If you are 100 feet away, your risk is near zero.  At 6 feet, perhaps it is 3% or something.  Exposure time would also be a factor of course, presuming the individual is contagious.

The sneeze/cough vector would be attenuated if said person was wearing some sort of facial covering.  Avoid skin contact with anyone outside your family.  Don't share needles.

Exactly.  I haven't seen it stated anywhere, but my assumption is that it's like other exponential decay curves and decreases with 1/r2 or some multiplier of that.

Monday's figure could be due to the holiday, this is reported new cases, with 731 being the 7 day MA.  Reported deaths = 21.  Hospitalized cases = 848 (7 day MA 948, so this figure is slowly declining).  That could be the best way to track "progress".  R naught estimated has crept back above 1.0.

The first of three reports today is 186 new cases, which could be a good number for the day.  This is not terribly predictive though.

 a report published May 14 in the journal Cell offers some encouraging signs about how our immune systems respond to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.


The researchers found that the immune system responds to the novel coronavirus in multiple ways. Importantly, they observed that people who recover from COVID-19 carry immune cells in their blood called T cells that target the novel coronavirus. T cells are a key component of the immune system’s ability to fend off infectious diseases. When faced with fragments of SARS-CoV-2, the T cells recognized the virus and sprang into action.

So, in my neck of the woods the conspiracies theories are off the charts.

You guys have this issue in your areas?


I understand there is a natural desire to need reasons "why" something bad happened, but sometimes bad stuff just happens.

I alluded to some whoppers earlier.  The virus of course is a plot by Bill Gates who already has a patent on the virus and wants us all to get innoculated as the vaccine will include a tiny tracking chip that goes inside of us and tells Bill Gates where we are at all times (unlike say our phones).

The other one is something about how face masks will smother us, or something.

And of course there is one that this is to keep the current President from being reelected.  Fauci and Birx are knee deep in that one.
