Words, words, words. Numbers, numbers, numbers. Let's just get back to living our normal lives already. People die. People live. Circle of life. Yada yada yada.

I washed them about 3-4 times a day. When this started getting covered extensively (early March), I started to wash them more often ... probably 8-10 times a day. By day three, my right hand was starting to crack because I was washing them so much.

So back to 3-4 times a day for me.

I only wash my hands when it’s needed. Like after the bathroom, preparing food like raw meats and other common things.

I’m sure people will do it more than usual and then get back to their normal disgusting ways.

I work in a hospital, probably 3-4 times per hour during the day. Purell before I enter and after exiting any patient room, washing my hands at least once before I leave a unit and after any patients I consult with in droplet precautions.

Do you wash that much when you are not working? You criticized someone for not washing their hands that much when they were at home, not going anywhere. That is a far cry from being an employee at a hospital. The average nurse only washes their hands 5-30 times during a shift. I'd be hard pressed to believe you wash your hands that much not at work.

First off it was a bit of a tongue in cheek jab, so no need to rage post.

At home, it’s likely 1-2x per hour. I have kids that range from 3-10 so it’s pretty consistent between cooking, cleaning, playing, etc.

We also have a strict no shoes in the house policy.

Absolute savages.

Pretty good considering this forum was talking about 100 million U.S. cases just a month ago.

Single use. It saves the environment.

I washed my hands 15-20x a day and carried around a spray bottle of 91% rubbing alcohol in my truck pre-virus.

For those with cracked hands, buy O’Keefe’s Working Hands Hand Cream on Amazon. Stuff works wonders after a couple applications.

So Darren Rovell, a man with a job and an income says that sports won't return until 2021

And CNN reporter who has a job and an income says that we will be lockdown until 2022.

Do you notice that they are not suffering or will suffer while the millions of Americans will. The food chain will not survive that long and these people know that but they want to sensationalize it. Sports will come back or there will be a lot of lawsuits. Can you imagine no NBA season this year, no baseball for two seasons, no college football or basketball for a season. Don't think so and Rovell knows it or else he should be fired.

Lockdown until 2022 and we won't have a country left. It looks like some people don't want us to come back to normal or near normal. Food is being dumped in Florida, California and other states because the farmers have no where to send their food. That will continue to get worse if this thing goes to 2022.

As the curve starts to flatten, suddenly we see these reports come out. Not surprised. There are people with agendas that want us to fail, it's disgusting.

Just like the initial models. These are plausible scenarios if you assume the worst case for dozens of variables. Could we be locked down for a year+ like Trudeau told his country Thursday'? Sure. But it would be like hitting a 20-all dog parlay.

What's going to be really fun is if we get an antibodies test before a vaccine and governments begin letting people with the COVID-19 antibodies go back to normal while maintaining lock-down for those without them.

And I say fun because it's going to instantly be cast by hundreds of articles and think pieces as some new form of privilege and the entrenchment of various populations as second class citizens.

Sure, technically a pandemic cannot exist without society, but diseases don't operate according to social structures or some nebulous idea of "power." At best you can uncover correlations, but basically everyone will give into insisting that they've found causation.
