We are living in a world where we have lost the rationale as individuals and need a study/experts to tell us what is in our face. Who would have thought drunk people couldn’t socially distance and make rational decisions – https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/jul/05/crystal-clear-drunk-people-cant-socially-distance-say-police-in-england
As I have been noting the data for quite some time has been saying aerosols are a concern – not sure the nuance on wording from WHO but don’t stay in a non ventilated room with people for an extended amount of time (minutes). Once again you don’t need an expert or some advance study to know this to save yourself – https://www.smh.com.au/world/north-america/serious-threat-scientists-say-who-ignores-aerosol-risk-of-coronavirus-20200705-p5595g.html
Even though the data shows a healthy individual will not likely die – I wouldn’t want to get sick just as much I avoid the flu each season. I don’t think I want to get covid IF I can avoid it within reasonable actions. The unknown and the reporting of longterm impact is scary. However I need to temper my fear knowing the media feeds fear. How many are really in this undesirable club of long-term impact? I also know people before Covid that had unexplainable sickness now Covid is a great place to drop all those unexplainable health issues – https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2020/06/covid-19-coronavirus-longterm-symptoms-months/612679/
Another awful unintended consequence of lockdown/covid – https://science.sciencemag.org/content/368/6497/1290.full?utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=dlvr.it
“Cancer is a complex set of diseases whose prognoses are influenced by the timing of diagnosis and intervention. In general, the earlier one receives cancer treatment, the better the results. There already has been a steep drop in cancer diagnoses in the United States since the start of the pandemic, but there is no reason to believe the actual incidence of cancer has dropped. Cancers being missed now will still come to light eventually, but at a later stage (“upstaging”) and with worse prognoses. At many hospitals, so-called “elective” cancer treatments and surgeries have been deprioritized to preserve clinical capacity for COVID-19 patients. For example, some patients are receiving less intense chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy, and in other cases, patients’ operations to remove a newly detected tumor are being delayed. There can be no doubt that the COVID-19 pandemic is causing delayed diagnosis and suboptimal care for people with cancer.”
“ignoring life-threatening non–COVID-19 conditions such as cancer for too long may turn one public health crisis into many others.”
