Big difference between traveling in your own car and taking mass transit. I don't think the virus leaks out the windows!


I see people everywhere in their cars with windows rolled up with a mask on -- I'm not a doctor or medical professional. It seems overkill? Am I wrong to think that?

It is of course nonsense (unless you share your car with other people).
Your face mask protects people around you, because you (as possibly infected) do not spit droplets. Wearing it makes very good sense - but only in the shops etc. - generally among other people.

I think this is worth repeating. A mask won't prevent you from CATCHING the disease. It stops/slows down your ability to GIVE the disease to someone else.

yep. we have 1 tiny little hospital that is basically just long term care at this point, very little in the way of acute care within an hour of here. frankfort goes from 1200 or so people to close to 10000 in the summer. if that chit happens here it could be a real mess. still no confirmed cases in the county.
Now that you've announced it, expect an influx of "tainted" New Yorkers.

I can fuel my truck locally (where I do anyway) and go up to my cabin and back w/o any pit stops, so what's your problem?

Besides, you are presuming I'm infected. You are also presuming we can stop this thing, we can't. We can only slow it down, and we have.

Sooner or later, you will be exposed. I'm still not convinced it is going to kill more people than the flu, and no one stayed at home to avoid the flu.

I take reasonable precautions, but I'm not going to stop living. When I fell like going to my cabin, I will, and no one will be infected as a result!

Life goes on. If you want to "shelter inside" 4 ever, go for it!

This is the most sober article I've read on covid-19, based on facts and statistics. If you are interested.
Politicians are only interested in saving their own skin and interests, and media want your $$$.
