    I like the part about wearing it with a dress and boots that follow the curves of my luscious legs. The potential drawback is that I only have tight fitting dresses. Will these work? Asking for a friend.

    yeah, that's been talked about a lot.

    some of the projections of infection rates were ridiculous and rather quickly discredited (like 50-85 times reported positives). Seemed to be a lot of agenda behind those projections

    there is also the unreliable nature of these anti-body tests....they are returning a high rate of false-positive results, but there's a whole bunch of different anti-body tests out there and it's a fairly un-regulated market

    0.5%-1.0% seems credible. I'd bet it ends up a lot closer to 1% than 0.5%. But the actual mortality rate seems to be going down really slow. When we had tested 25,000 per million the mortality rate was 5.9%. We are now at 54,000 tests per million and the rate just dropped under 5.8%. I'd think it would be a lot steeper trend-line by now if it was going to end up well under 1%

    whoever is the author of the post that puts this one over the top gets to either ban anyone they want, or take over Sly's account for one day.

    White rioter causing damage swarmed and unmasked by protesters and handed over to cops

    For the third night in a row, protests and violence wracked Washington D.C., with multiple fires breaking out on Sunday. In protest hot spots around the country, signs of division inside the groups of mostly young people roaming the streets is being documented on video.

    Black protesters and their allies are increasingly calling out non-black people, usually dressed in black and wearing masks, who are found at protest spots causing damage. One video out of D.C. posted to Twitter by journalist Safvan Allahverdi shows a group of men spotting a rioter dressed in black who was smashing a curb with a hammer.


    “Get the white people!” one man yells as another grabs the rioter from behind.

    Soon after, four men wrestle the rioter to the ground, pull off his mask, and seize the hammer from his hand. At one point the rioter calls for help, possibly to an accomplice who was looking on.

    The group then carries the man over to a group of police officers on the corner where they take him into custody.

    Watch the video below:

    uhhh....posts in this thread about the riots? Maybe I'm lost...?
    ***************************************************

    anyway, this piece by Thomas Friedman is talking abut more than just the pandemic, but he puts things in pandemic terms. Long but thoughtful essay:

    ******************************************************

    also, speaking of stoooopid trump photo-ops, several cadets from West Point forced to return and be a backdrop for a trump campaign stunt have tested positive of Covid:

    Trump hasn't spoken to Dr. Fauci in weeks. He said he's bored with Corona virus.

    105,000 Americans and counnting never have to worry about being bored again.

    Stay home for 10 days after every time you go to a store or are around public facilities...this is not the time to be dumb about the pandemic....Lane County had 2 deaths and 65 total cases for the first two months...in the last week it's 75 cases and now 3 deaths....we had it under control but now people are whoopin' it up again and intermingling....I don't see the effort being taken seriously about the pandemic at all..wash your hands and wear a mask people!
