Bullshit, Trump's treatment was priceless. You try and get Regeneron. I don't care how much money you have you can't buy it. It's currently on a double blind test. Granted the FDA will compassionately release early if it shows promise which I assume it will but until that date you, rather we, can't get it.
Since Donald is soooooo fond of NDA's, I hope Regeneron made him(and as agent for his estate) sign a no fault non-responsibility document in case it fails and he dies.

:cry: God I hope they're wrong. We haven't dug out of the pit when they closed gyms earlier this spring and they're talking about doing it again.
Even if they didn't I would not be going there until we are through the flu and cold season. Unless you wear a respirator, eye and hair protection and decontaminate when you get home. Gyms do a lot of heavy breathing in a closed space, probably one of the more dangerous activities unless you work on a Covid ward.

Wearing full PPE and doing aerobic activity is hard not to break the seals. Working fast is what has lead medical workers to contract this virus even though they are good at using PPE. When you move fast you can break a face seal and then gulp a large amount of airborne virus.

I stopped going in March when things started getting serious. My partner is a personal trainer and dietician and works out of four downtown gyms. The last shutdown they said they would keep everyone on payroll then laid everyone off two weeks later.

Can she start a side hustle working out chicken old women on Zoom? Asking for myself.

Funny you say that, we've learned how vulnerable we are to things outside our control and she wants to go independant. She's been doing meal planning on her own for a chain of retirement communities since June. It's not huge money but it's something. I will talk to her tonight and I bet she could put something together for you quickly. She will probably have questions about your current fitness level and goals, I'll send you an email over the weekend.

What ever happened to that second covid stimulus package to run money through the depressed economy?

You'd think in an election year they'd rush that money out and both sides would take credit.

Thanks Trump, may a diseased yak invade your undershorts.

Oh, wait...
He wants to send out another $1200 bribe with his name on it again, and promised more AFTER he is elected...Sounds like extortion to me.
