Which of the dozens or so versions of science should we follow oh great liberal and insulter of those with faith?

 I keep waiting for you to be banned because you were absolutely ruining this forum and people are sick of you. Do us all favor and either stick to football or get the fuck out of here.

a - Faith doesn't need to be insulted, merely defined....'belief without evidence' is better than any insult could be.
b - I'm not sure what I've done to be banned, but you might have, just now.

Are you bitchy because President Turd is going to get Dukakissed?

Nah, I am bitchy because people like you are a stain on this world, and I visit this forum to escape that.   Stop being a stain.

My suggestion is to stick to the topic at hand and avoid politics.  

A lot of Europe is problematic now, France especially, but Italy is running up the score now as well.  Brazil and India are apparently bad.

Only North Korea has shown absolute control over this.

Nobody goes to/from North Korea. Heh.

And yes, it is a marvel that we had testing for this thing so early.

And yes, no politics in this thread.

There is one here for that, which will be dead in 4 days. Until then, have at it.

Did anyone here say weather was a factor?
It was discussed very early on, and at that time, Dr. Fauci said weather will be a factor, and he still thinks it will. The spikes in the Midwest are happening as people have to be inside more. Hopefully, everyone is diligent for the Holiday season coming up.

We're not going anywhere. Probably spend TG with friends here who are as careful as we are. Been here for almost 4 weeks now and still haven't seen them. We are getting together next weekend at my house (it's not quite home yet).

Isolating is tough. It's definitely taking a toll on me. Anxiety is something I've never felt before. I imagine I'm not alone with this problem.

So, the initial increase in March is easy to understanding, followed by the plateau, which also is easy to understand.  States started reopening in late April, slowly, to the increase in mid-June can be ascribed to that, but then mid-July something interesting happens, a decrease of fairly significantly proportions, and now from mid-September another increase.

Europe per capita is doing even worse now.  I know for some it's politically attractive to blame our situation on the current folks in charge, but then how does one explain Europe?  It's not as if Macron is somehow doing better, France is doing worse, and it's getting very bad there.  Even Sweden is seeing an increase.

The good news is deaths are down across the board as "we" learn how best to treat serious cases apparently.  My state is roughly stable now around 1200 new cases per day.

Obviously, we took a three night driving trip last week.  So far, so good.  The hospitality industry is really getting hammered obviously.

Florida had 4000 new cases Friday, with 77K tests done. A little over 5% positive.

I'm not too worried about hotel rooms

I suppose two people that had the virus that didn't checkout until 11am, then I checked into the same room around 4 or 5pm, it could be a problem.

I would hope with so many empty rooms, the management would be smart enough to rotate rooms over multiple days.

They claim to be taking extra precautions, but I am not as worried about dermal contact now with a surface.

I'm pretty sure most contagion is from oral spewing.

yes, small poorly ventilated rooms, but should be ok after 24-48 hours
