Lockdowns work.

Other than personal observation and the behavior of other seasonal viruses like cold and flu. In meat packing plants social distancing and lack of safety measures were a big issue, but the recent outbreak in a German meat packing plant is cause for concern, I'm pretty sure they had strict measures in place there. There is also hard evidence on how long the bug lasts under different conditions and temps, it survives best near freezing if I recall, that's how they preserve samples, refrigerate them. It all amounts to conjecture on my part, but these are my reasons for the opinion.

Airborne spread is the biggest culprit and if everybody wore a mask in public and at work along with testing we can keep it in check. My concern is cold temps make outside spread more likely (a hockey game in a cold arena!) Also people will be spending more time inside and it will spread more seasonally like cold and flu, for the same reasons.

Hear anything about that spartan cube thing? It would make nail salons and hair places much safer to operate, so would mandatory masks and waiting in your car until called on yer phone etc. Dougie ordered a million of the fucking things alone, they ain't gonna be much use this time next year I figure.
You mean your not Cubing yet?
Dude, you need to get out!

Exercising in a glorified garbage bag, and about as effective as nothing at all, put the cubes in the parking lot along with the machines! If ya really want to work out, ya don't need a gym, just the will and a little imagination. Gyms, bars, theaters and churches would be low on my reopening list and I'd just shut domestic air travel down altogether, except for freight and essential shit.

I hope this is a fucking joke. What kind of fucking logic.
"I don't know anyone with it. So it's a hoax."
Dip shit.
I'm watching people die daily from it in my hospital.

Gyms are high on my list. I have always been a gym rat. I need air conditioning so outside won’t work. I miss draft beer from a bar so that’s high on my list . Theaters are very low on my list right now but if the right movie came out it would move right to the top of the list. Air travel could be fine if people were strictly monitored . They need to somehow manage the exiting of airplanes better. in a recent article I read of a critique of flying as of last week , the report stated everyone was real cool and clean and quiet as church mice until the exit where they acted like wild animals to exit . All the hard work distancing during the flight went to shit as soon as the plane parked . People shoving for their luggage and body slamming to get off the plane as soon as possible. You just can’t escape the Covidiots. They are everywhere.
Luckily I am the only one in the gym when I go . Sometimes 2-5 people show up . If I am uncomfortable then I just leave or don’t use a machine. Like one day someone was riding his bike right behind me and I got paranoid like he had dragon breath . I tried wearing my mask but it got too hard to breath. So I just left.

what happens when the lockdowns are lifted, the economy starts to get going and then we have a another spike which absolutely overwhelms hospitals all over the US?
We are about to see what happens. It will crush the economy and health care system.

The only path to economic recovery is controlling the epidemic!

It's Independence Day in the US..... millions will celebrate and exercise their right to be stupid. How many 10's of thousands will be infected today?

Get a tee shirt made that says
CAUTION
INFECTED

That should help with social distancing at the gym. I know younger folks wanna get back to life and I can't blame them, but there are certain high risk social activities that are conducive to spread, like bars, gyms and being young and horny in general! Churches too for the older and stupid!

I knew a few rats from my time at the local gym here, most lived in the fucking place! I'm generally all business, same for the pool, I wanna swim mylaps and stay the fuck out of my lane! I'm here for a reason and it ain't social, I'm too busy trying to breathe.

I drive around in my US vehicle with Texas plates on it here in BC.

People stay the fuck away from me. They somehow think my vehicle is infected, therefore so must I be. They also point, say rude things and are generally awful though, until I put on an attitude and pretend I'm reaching for a 38 in the console. Canadians can be assholes. I haven't even been in or to the states since long before the pandemic started.

Trump's behaviour has directly affected how this Canadian is viewed by other Canadians. I have NEVER had anything but polite inquisition about my US plates until this nonsense with the explosions of cases, especially in TX.

Note that I'm a Canadian Citizen since birth, and my wife is a dual US-Canada citizen.

We are starting to see what happens. It will devastate the economy and health care system.

Look at the data on July 15 to 18.

It won't be pretty.
And Trump will still be saying we're handling it with 35% clinging to his every lie.

A bunch of nitwits voted for Trump to 'shake things up'.

So today, on July 4, 2020, are you shaken up enough yet?

Aweee, I'm sorry I was a couple months late to your dumb ass comments.
I'm not apologizing for stupidity.
And idk if you know the difference between sarcasm and being a Jack ass, but you sure draw a thin line bud.

they're releasing movies in the theaters, online too, so you don't have to go out..i paid $20, to see one..you just have to look, Redbox most often carries but if you have a movie in mind just google and it'll tell you which stream service(s) have it.

I have so many T-shirts I want right now. But that’s not one of them.
Maybe I’m infested but not I’m infected . Did you get your BLM t shirt @srh88 ? I want that one and An I Can’t Breath mask.
And a Freddy Kruger tank top And the what a women wants in a man t shirt.
