Coronovirus IV

[HoughMade]

The last time my doctor got that deep in my sinuses he wished he had a vice to keep me from squirming and whimpering.

I have a former ENT client who, after his procedure, you would swear he never touched your sinuses..

I'm hoping they don't spend a lot of time back in there. I can tolerate almost anything for a little while.

That's music to a proctologist's ears.

Just got back from my appointment and they did not test me for wuhuflu, just did a body scan, freezes, biopsies and out the door.

Masks were required, so I wore a P100 respirator mask to protect me. It has an exhaust valve so they gave me a cheapie mask to wear over my mask to filter my exhaled air to protect everybody else.

Are you kidding us!!
They made you put on a disposable mask OVER the respirator! Are they clueless!
Was it the 1/2 mask or full mask respirator? Not that it matters as both the exhaust values have protection anyways.

It was a half mask respirator. I think they were OK in doing that. I don't think the exhaust valve filters anything so they just wanted my exhales to go through something to filter it a little. It was probably overkill but I didn't bother to argue since it is their clinic.

No. The exhaust valves release the exhaled air without any filtering at all. In fact some fanatics claim this type of mask is more dangerous because they accelerate the exhaled air through the valve and it travels further. I don't buy that but some people say that.

If it does that to the survivors, I wonder how it will affect the dead?

They also lose their hearing and sense of smell and taste - but somehow retain their ability to vote.

Do they become pinball wizards?

The hearing part is kind of weird. When I was in my early 20’s I got several viruses at the same time. I was sick for about two months. Once I started to recover I had loud ringing in my ears and still have it to this day.

Actually pinball wizards need their sense of smell to play.

I see that ISDH has changed their Hospitalized Number of Patients graph to breakdown the patients into "confirmed covid patients" and "PUI patients". Anybody know what PUI stands for?
I asked Barb the Bot but she didn't answer.
I'm guessing PUI means they checked in for a broken leg but we think they look covidish so we're counting them.
I wonder if someone challenged ISDH to document their stats and they are now "clarifying" how they count covid patients.

OK. 2 weeks ago my nephew was tested positive. Non-productive cough and a slight fever. A bit down on energy. He was prepping top leave for college and still lives with my SIL and her hubby. They are close. They were at the lake with my BIL and his wife spending the weekend when he noticed.

About 1 week of feeling down and now back on top of his game. No one else tested positive even spending the weekend on the lake on the pontoon.You are in very close quarters on a damned pontoon boat.
His parents stayed with him in "QUARINTINE" and both were cleared yesterday. No signs. No sickness. So WTAF here people. This is one of several we are hearing about from folks that have no skin in the orange man bad game.

Again I am calling bull**** on this entire mess.

Bull****.

He is leaving for school this week.

What exactly are you calling bull**** on? What is it that you don’t believe?

I'll take a swing at this - the infectiousness of the virus, the role of physical proximity in its spread (think: social distancing), the severity of the symptoms, the dangers of long-lasting effects, the vulnerability of the public, the need for draconian measures to prevent new cases....

You know, that sort of stuff.

Am I close, CM?
