    He’s just resting after his big Saturday Night Live (at home) performance. Apparently getting dressed is quite taxing to some these days.
  2. Prophet Zacharia
    If he breaks each of his posts into three, we got this, easy.

    I think what is fascinating is that our data is coming from Hopkins and journalists, not the CDC. The largest infectious disease public health crisis in a century and the CDC isn’t the leading source of data? That’s pretty shocking. But I don’t see it as much a coverup as incompetence/underfunding.

    Longer? Meaning a comparisons of two countries? US and Canada? Since we have no national lock-down policy, I’ll have to say Canada. Or do you mean longest, comparing multiple counties? I have no idea, because the countries that do it best won’t need to do it the longest.
  5. Prophet Zacharia
    Too soon.
  6. Prophet Zacharia
    Anything it wants?

    I would shave down to a Zappa if I got a N95. All I have is flu masks, though.
  8. Prophet Zacharia
    Tastes like butter.
  9. Prophet Zacharia
    You think so, even with a reported 82,000 cases? While I think cases and deaths are likely much higher, I wouldn’t characterize the response as an over reaction. If not for what they did, the other, more reliable world data would be much worse.
  10. Prophet Zacharia
    I trust the population estimates for China. And Russia. Do I trust their health statistics? Not in a million years. But I don’t think 20,000 + US deaths is “hysteria”.
  11. Prophet Zacharia
    I know. Our dear leader doesn’t seem to know this. He thinks this “germ” is dangerous because it’s evaded the effects of antibiotics.
  12. Prophet Zacharia
    It’s a very stable genius germ.
  13. Prophet Zacharia
    Because China doesn’t have a large population?
  14. Prophet Zacharia
    The problem, I am told, if that the germ is very smart and is able to resist the effects of antibiotics.
  15. Prophet Zacharia
    I’ll just assume that’s a euphemism so the driving 45 minutes after work makes sense.

    Oh, my 401(k) took a big hit, but it’s rebounded a bit. But I’m not drawing on that any time soon, so that’s fantasy money. My son’s 529 college fund took a hit, and he’ll need to start drawing on that in August. But that’s a first world + problem. I feel fortunate to be working, and have been working a ton of OT. My wife is working from home, busier than usual.

    It may be an early spring, but not really prime tick season. Not that it’s impossible, I guess, but it wouldn’t be tops in my concerns at this time of year. But IMNAV nor stayed at a Best Western. Glad they are eating.

    Happy hour gimmick, designed to obtain hours of continued drinking and bar food purchases.
  19. Prophet Zacharia
    And a Vampire!

    I know several physicians on home quarantine for two weeks because of an exposure to a work colleague who tested positive. They can’t get tested because they aren’t symptomatic and test shortages, but can’t get cleared until the incubation period has ended. 🤷‍♂️
  21. Prophet Zacharia
    Yeah, it’s a major inconvenience to get Covid-19. To put it mildly. But if she infects a major teaching hospital by coming back to work without being cleared, I think that would be worse?
  22. Prophet Zacharia
    Maybe I’m misunderstanding your use of the term “exposure”. Because for anyone to break quarantine due to a sense of work ethic or financial drive seems recklessly irresponsible and selfish. Doesn’t Canada have PTO, short-term disability, FMLA???
  23. Prophet Zacharia
    If your apartment roommate is Covid positive, you’re allowed to go to work until you have symptoms yourself??? We self-quarantine for two weeks. *assumes communal, shared space in the living quarters and some interaction within 6’ without masks, but I don’t know too many roommates that don’t have some face to face contact or that wipe down their kitchen after each use.
  24. Prophet Zacharia
    Sorry to hear about the pups.
  25. Prophet Zacharia
    She needs to quarantine for two weeks without symptoms before she can return to work, on-site. Or get tested negative.
