OT: Coronavirus Resources - and other things to not worry about

It’s a long read and didn’t finish but do they mention cannabis use in regards to smoking it or consumption from eating and drinking? I’d assume (in my uneducated brain) that eating and drinking it would be less due to not involving your lungs overall but this may be monitoring how your overall body responds to the disease. Ugh
 
back to the whole masking and covid thing - further evidence of the value and efficacy of masking.

I went on a vacation with my wife last week, along with a group of friends. she had previously been at a work conference, where she picked up covid (turns out it was a bit of a super spreader event, at least 1/3 of her colleagues also got covid). she was symptomatic on thursday, and I met up with her and our group on saturday. we then drove 4+ hours in the same car, hopped on a boat all together, and went off to our lil cabin.

anyways, she wore a mask indoors and slept separately, unmasked. she ate outdoors, unmasked, with some slight social distancing. I rejoined her in bed on I want to say the Tuesday night and by Wednesday she was unmasked indoors.

no one else in our group got covid.
 

Big bro was almost fully recovered (he claims maybe 80% back to normal after ~2 years of suffering), caught covid again recently and the cognitive symptoms are at all-time high. He's a very hard working nerd so this brain damage stuff is killing him. There's that plus his legs turn blue if he stands for too long which is a cool party trick.
 
A lot of folks around me are getting the vid.I have cold symptoms but so far have not tested positive for it.

Anyone who got in my face in the "Biden will bow out" thread should take the necessary pre cautions
 
my assistant's three kids all have it. she had a scratchy throat, but came to the office anyways...

my wife had it in June, and I was able to avoid it since she picked it up at a work event in BC and by the time we reunited, we know she was sick so she just masked.

expect it will start making its way around our office now... (again)
 
Many places around the world getting some fairly significant summer waves. Hasn't really hit us yet but probably will soon. We've had it pretty good. Not as low as last summer but considering what we've seen elsewhere, pretty prettay good
 
The Sheraton Centre downtown Toronto, hosted over a thousand Latvians from around the world this past weekend (for this massive thing called The Latvian Song Festival -- I never heard of it until I dating into it)

Anyway, hearing that a lot of attendees tested positive starting on Tuesday.

Kid had a cough. Probably the vid but at this point we treat everything as the vid so no testing.
