    Crash what is that? Aren't you supposed to run into things? That's all I did the first day. I'm getting the hang of it but still having control problems. Mine is a

    That's nice. We're happy for you. Did it ever occur to someone in your excellent health that you could very well be handing out something more than staples?

    ""There's significant transmission by people not showing symptoms," Stephen Morse, an epidemiologist at Columbia University, told Business Insider.

    "According to Robert Redfield, the director of the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, 25 percent of people infected with the new coronavirus don't present any symptoms or fall ill but can still transmit the illness to others.

    "Redfield on Tuesday told NPR that "we have pretty much confirmed" that "a significant number of individuals that are infected actually remain asymptomatic."

    "These asymptomatic carriers, Redfield added, are most likely contributing to the rapid spread of the coronavirus worldwide – the number of confirmed cases passed 1 million this week – and making it challenging for experts to assess the true extent of the pandemic."

    Source: https://www.sciencealert.com/here-s-...thout-symptoms

    If you care about your community and the ppl you claim to be helping you'll stay home and find socially-distant ways to help them. Monetary donations, wellness checks by phone, making masks to mail to those without, etc.

    I realize that this is a "nice" thread. But as a health care professional I cannot let statements like yours go unchallenged, for the sake of the people we both say we care about. I hope you'll listen.

    Quite the opposite,if you're as healthy as you claim,you could pick up the virus and be passing it along!
    I avoid everyone when out,always wear a mask,hands covered in sanitizer before and after shopping.
    I don't want to end up on a ventilator.
