Prophet Zacharia Posted June 10, 2020 Share #1805 Posted June 10, 2020 So I’m now 9-18% less worried about the disease. Unless O blood type people are just naturally more socially distancing or prone to use a mask or wash their hands. “people with type O blood are between 9 and 18 percent less likely to test positive for COVID-19 when compared to the other blood types.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reverend_Maynard Posted June 10, 2020 Share #1809 Posted June 10, 2020 I was forced to go to the dentist on Friday to have a tooth pulled. I waited outside til they called and told me to come in. I saw the receptionist, the tech, and the doc... that's it. Mask on while walking to and from the chair. Hope I didn't catch or transmit anything, but it was an emergency. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stitched up the gum and told me I'd be good to stand the midnight watch. They also gave me codeine and a paper cup to spit blood into. I stood the watch but I don't remember it.

12string Posted June 10, 2020 Share #1816 Posted June 10, 2020 Just got back from the dentist, still numb. I broke a wisdom tooth about 3 days after they had to shut down. wait in the lot, masks, plexiglas, sanitizer. They actually took all the doors off the rooms and even took out sections of walls for air movement. Sounded like an exhaust fan running. She didn't bother with the broken tooth. The one under it has been gone for years, she said it would be dumb to charge me all that money for a tooth I don't even use. So I have to go to a surgeon for that. Since the time was booked anyway, she started the cap I've been waiting to do for a year or so. Gotta go back in 3 weeks now. My 6 month is due 3 weeks after that.

Folks are hurting financially. If I lost my job, I'm not so sure the risk wouldn't be worth it. When you can't eat or pay the bills or worse -- go in a big hole -- it can motivate you to do foolish things. Of course so can a few margaritas.

Kzoo Posted June 13, 2020 Share #1846 Posted June 13, 2020 Hmmm....This coronavirus is the strangest virus I've ever heard of. It's very dangerous the way it spreads. It is so mysterious the way it lurks in schools, but then dies at Home Depot. It can wreak havoc in churches; praying people are exceptionally vulnerable! Although it’s mind-boggling how it vanishes when people stand close together holding signs, destroying businesses, homes, property, monuments, etc. Yet, standing to watch a marathon or a concert triggers its wrath. It is sneaky. It can spread when buying clothes at Kohl's but not at Target. It is non-alcoholic. It can't spread when you are buying beer. It lives for two days on Amazon boxes, you must wait 48 hours to touch them but it can't survive on Starbucks coffee cups, so enjoying a hot cup of joe is safe. It is the most curious thing, how it lives on basketballs, baseball bats and ballet bars, but dies on WWE ropes and Walmart shopping carts. It is spread by hair stylists, dog groomers, and dentists, but not by bank tellers, cashiers, and fast food workers. It's so smart. It won’t bother the first 10 people but it knows when the 11th person shows up so be careful if that’s you. It even knows what you want vs what you need. If you want a massage or your nails done it is very actively on the prowl and not even a mask can stop it but If you need a plumber, it is weak, and a mask will keep it away. It also seems to be most dangerous after 5:30pm so businesses must start to close before the virus comes out and wreaks havoc upon the populations. Whoever heard of such a smart sneaky virus?!? 🤓 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
