Covid - the primary danger, according to the best science from epidemiologists and virologists, is SHARED STAGNANT AIR.

Most people are afraid of contact surfaces, but whereas some surfaces may have a significant viral load, it's all those aerosol droplets hanging around for considerable periods of time within stagnant air spaces that evidently are the primary route for transmitting Covid.

And remember that ASYMPTOMATIC PERSONS are shedding the virus all over the place.

So an empty supermarket aisle might seem "safe," but you don't know what gaggle of teens or young adults were just in the aisle 30 seconds ago who might have been chatting and laughing and emitting a big load of Coronavirus-contaminated aerosol particles that are still lingering.

This is why folks should be wearing the N95 masks (or K94 from S.Korea, 94% efficient). As i've posted before, most folks are wearing cotton masks rated at only about 25-50% efficacy.

Just sayin'....

P.S. -- Bobwins, i agree that hours at a holiday dinner in an enclosed room is a more dangerous breeding ground for Covid than just briefly popping into a supermarket for several minutes.

May you all keep safe and stay healthy, everyone.

Bless You, higher gold prices may not

have cured your ailing

from the gold bug...


But they probably made your

symptoms more bearable...


So we watch...LJ

OT, the mall was unfortunately due to a failing Apple device and needing to go into their spot to have it addressed. Definitely exposure time and amount to anything viral anyone is carrying would be very light walking thru a mall but the sheer number of people was intimidating anyway.

As far as online stock market safety, don’t forget the big hack! Who knows what kind of holiday hack surprises may end up on your opening screen.

I think you’ve been exposed to the gold bug for so long that a mutant viral breakout will have you smiling! You’ll be the safe one.

OT: Supermarket exposure.

I was in the supermarket a few weeks ago when a guy in hospital scrubs came walking down the isle, it was like he had a forcefield around him, people were literally tripping over each other to get out of his way, it was kind of hysterical....I thought I should get some scrubs to wear around to assure people give me adequate social distance, lol!
