Where'd you go to get tested? Did you have to make an appointment?

Hope your test is negative and that you're feeling better, A.S.A.P.! I'd probably still skip dinner with Gramps tomorrow night though, just to be safe... even though it would suck to miss such an important birthday for such an important person.

If you're positive, message me and I'll bring you some herbal remedies to help you battle the virus! Like with most illnesses, I think cannabis treatment would be extremely beneficial, when administered using the correct methods of delivery.

OHSU drive up at Hillsboro Stadium. No appointment necessary. It was a nasal swab too. That was not pleasant

I already backed out of the family dinner before I got tested but hopefully it’s negative and I can see them all soon

If it is positive I’ll def PM you! Thanks man

I've heard that the saliva test is only 70% accurate.

Is it? I took one around April before an appointment at OHSU. Fully expected it to be nasal but it was not.
I did my test at a drive through testing at the expo center.

So @ABM wants herd immunity and @ehizzy3 might have the 'rona.

I see a money making opportunity here.

If ehizzy has the rona he should charge $50 per ABM relative to french kiss them. Might have to charge a little more for ABM's dad but the ABM family herd would have immunity to the virus.

I get $100 for making this happen.

We're doomed, then. I'm only thankful that my wife and I have contracted the disease......and survived.

The Great Barrington Declaration

As infectious disease epidemiologists and public health scientists we have grave concerns about the damaging physical and mental health impacts of the prevailing COVID-19 policies, and recommend an approach we call Focused Protection.

Coming from both the left and right, and around the world, we have devoted our careers to protecting people. Current lockdown policies are producing devastating effects on short and long-term public health. The results (to name a few) include lower childhood vaccination rates, worsening cardiovascular disease outcomes, fewer cancer screenings and deteriorating mental health – leading to greater excess mortality in years to come, with the working class and younger members of society carrying the heaviest burden. Keeping students out of school is a grave injustice.

Keeping these measures in place until a vaccine is available will cause irreparable damage, with the underprivileged disproportionately harmed.

Fortunately, our understanding of the virus is growing. We know that vulnerability to death from COVID-19 is more than a thousand-fold higher in the old and infirm than the young. Indeed, for children, COVID-19 is less dangerous than many other harms, including influenza.

As immunity builds in the population, the risk of infection to all – including the vulnerable – falls. We know that all populations will eventually reach herd immunity – i.e. the point at which the rate of new infections is stable – and that this can be assisted by (but is not dependent upon) a vaccine. Our goal should therefore be to minimize mortality and social harm until we reach herd immunity...... (CONTINUED)

You are marrying somebody from MONTANA? Does she/he even have teeth?

ABM · Oct 10, 2020

IMP, Trump et al appears to be in line with Sweden's approach to the pandemic.

crandc · Oct 10, 2020

Sweden has by far the highest death rate in Europe. Despite banning gatherings of more than 10 people and having universal comprehensive health care, both of which Trump opposes.

Them Montana women are absolutely made for men!
Very attractive, especially in those tight bright wrangler jeans. And the best is their independence and ability to take care of themselves. Most are excellent with long guns and pistols and they can bring home the bacon just as any dude can.
And theres nothing like a Montana women in the hay!

According to the article, many/most of those deaths occurred early on in nursing homes. By Sweden's own admission, they should have allowed those folks to home-convalesce.

Sweden is doing fine now.
