    use a cooler, cooler can keep food hot for hours. I make bbq and often will "rest" whatever hunk of meat I cooked in a cooler, 8 hrs later its still too hot to touch.

    And, yea, I go out almost everyday to people's homes and businesses to fix their electrical problems right now, and have been since last March, and I NEVER wear a fucking mask! I was at a duplex yesterday putting in a light in the pantry. My kid was there helping me. We were there for four hours, no masks, the renter--no mask-- and she now has a pantry light. I also fixed some illegal wiring in the bathroom because I came across it running the new circuit.
    Got two calls to go on today. Both are minor, bad receptacle or something. No mask.

    Haven't got Chinese Disease. If I do, I'll deal with it. If I don't, I wasn't inconvenienced by following idiot, useless, government mandates. Oh, I'll add that I'm seeing more professionals at the home improvement stores at the pro desk refusing to wear a mask too. I take it everyone is getting tired of doing something they see as worthless.
    If everyone treated the pandemic in this way, it would be far worse, and more people would be dead. The virus is transmitted in an airborne form. Humans should endeavor to avoid sharing air or touching objects recently touched by other humans. Fortunately, most people understand the problem and are taking more appropriate measures.

    Arizona has the 9th largest number of total cases in the United States. 12,643 people have died from COVID-19 in Arizona. The disease depends on close human contact to spread.

    Deaths in Arizona, like much of the nation, have recently increased:

    Nothing has ever prevented you (or the mega-wealthy DEMOCRATS infesting Congress) from "helping the poor", yet I've not seen any evidence that they do so.

    Didn't you hear?

    Now that a DEMOCRAT infests the Oval office, the WHO suddenly "discovered" that the PCR tests have been misused, (something doctors and scientists have been saying all along).

    https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/29/h...s-testing.html

    Now the number of positive tests is going to go way down - just in time for the usurper to take the credit for "beating COVID".

    The one time I had a cold I got tested... just in case. It was negative. That was in December.

    That's proof of a negative. We have no way of knowing if that's true or not. The so-called "experts" haven't been very correct on their calls. Aside from that the economic and social damage done by what has been done is immense. We know that, even if the MSM ignores or downplays it.

    Guess that business must not be doing very well, eh? If you showed up at my house without a mask, I would send you packing, you selfish prick.

    LOL at you.

    Well, experts say that microwaving the food for about 15 seconds should kill the virus if it's present.

    Nah I had it early, still have anti-bodies, I chose not to live in fear and not let our government kill small businesses for the sake of big box chains.

    The economic and social damage done by fighting WWII was immense. Restrictions were imposed on the American people that drastically affected their lives. Many food items became unavailable as the nation strove to feed troops overseas. Front yards became 'Victory Gardens.' Gasoline and tires were in limited supply. Ration tickets were issued which were needed to make those purchases. Pennies were minted in steel to save copper for wiring of planes and radio equipment. The prices of some things skyrocketed. Some people resisted the measures and cheated on the rules. They were punished.

    This is a different kind of war. The front is everywhere. We are all in the fight. It takes all of us.

    This is a war between humans and a bug.


    It is only understandable that some people will disagree on what to do about it. The fact is this bug attacks humans and kills them, but it is insidious because, though it may spread rapidly from human to human, it does not cause symptoms in most of those infected. This allows it to spread further and find victims who will succumb to it.

    If all humans did as much as possible to cut personal contact, the pandemic would not be able to spread. But it is not possible to completely cut off personal contact, so it must be limited as much as possible.

    Naturally, we all understand this is a huge impact into people's personal lives. It falls upon each of us to decide how to react to the situation. Will people think more of their nation or themselves...

    Some will go maximum. Do everything to limit contact.

    Others will refuse to change their habits.

    Some who go maximum will still get infected and die from one little slip-up.

    Others who refuse to do anything will luck out and not be affected at all.

    And we will see everything in between.
