    Doesn't the virus go away after a while? I was thinking of placing in a bag with a bunch of sanitizer sprayed in.

    If you can't afford a new $3 mask for each plane flight you should probably stay home.

    ....

    I'm thinking of flying to Vegas and that's how I plan on doing it. Face shield and mask going in the garbage when I get off the plane and away from people.

    Riding in an tightly enclosed space with stupid people and recycled air I'm taking extra precautions.

    I'M ON A BUDGET. Yeah, I have about 15 KN95 Masks I guess I can spare 4 for now.

    Only flying where they block the middle seats for now (Alaska and Delta).

    Young children carry higher levels of coronavirus: study
    AFP 15 mins ago


    The team, led by Dr Taylor Heald-Sargent of the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital, observed "a 10-fold to 100-fold greater amount of SARS-CoV-2 in the upper respiratory tract of young children."

    The authors added that a recent lab study had demonstrated that the more viral genetic material was present, the more infectious virus could be grown.

    It has also previously been shown that children with high viral loads of the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) are more likely to spread the disease.

    "Thus, young children can potentially be important drivers of SARS-CoV-2 spread in the general population," the authors wrote.

    "Behavioral habits of young children and close quarters in school and day care settings raise concern for SARS-CoV-2 amplification in this population as public health restrictions are eased," they concluded.

    Thank God Trump got his signature signifying that Cain cannot sue the Trump campaign for any ill effects of the Covid-19 scourge at the rally that was certified by Trump to be free of the virus or it's ill effects.

    Tell it like it is, there hasn't even been a twinkle of a promise in the con game so called medicine. It's only a chance for Trump to make money on a drug company stock whose main drug Trump is touting as a cure for Covid-19. They put people in prison for that kind of con game.

    Donald Trump's brilliance on display.
    Perhaps Clyburn should have put up death numbers. Do you think that would have sunk into Trumps thick skull? Nah, he'd just change the subject mid sentence so he wouldn't have to burden his tiny brain, which goes well with his tiny hands, with trying to put a thought together.
