just when you thought you knew what stupid was

[ovrszd]

Gee, are the rioters in your city getting arrested for spreading the Covid?

Oh how dare you!!!! ��

 

[Citydude]

Oh how dare you!!!! ��

I forgot, they get a free pass for expressing their feelings. My bad....

 

[CalG]

To the people it kills of course ...

:laughing:

Hey! They are not the ones bitching!

 

[MossRoad]

Lol, if you say so.

There is no mask mandate that I知 aware of that has been signed into law. Not enforceable. And most certainly questionable.

And you never will.... The LAW gives the governor, mayor, etc... the authority to issue a mandate. Sheesh.

 

[CalG]

This is actually, a moot point. See details of Post #516 above. WHO backtracked, admitted they were wrong, and subsequent studies have shown asymptomatic transmission does occur.

Just to be sure everyone is on the same page.

This is not a trivial statement extracted from the subsequent study.

Little is known about the infectiveness of asymptomatic patients. Our findings, given a recent report of SARS-CoV-2 transmission from an asymptomatic person to 4 family members,8 nevertheless offer biological plausibility to such reports of transmission by asymptomatic people. A previous study9 analyzing a small number of patients also reported that viral load of asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 patients was as high as that of symptomatic patients. Although the high viral load we observed in asymptomatic patients raises a distinct possibility of a risk for transmission, our study was not designed to determine this. [end quote]

So many questions? I worry about those who profess to know the answers.

That was a mistake! KING for a day! (or a month or two..)

I strongly object to the OP calling this a "DEADLY VIRUS". Again, it's NOT the Bubonic Plague, like the public at large seems to be afraid is lurking around every corner..

99.7 percent of people that get the flu don't die from it... That's something' I've heard some describe having the flu as "painful".

I can't say, NO ONE in my area has had the flu or died of it... Where would I be without the news?

 

[Industrial Toys]

I still see it as a particularly agressive flu, but I don't even know if that is true? Those predisposed, could become infected easier than a normal flu, and could well die. That's kind of my understanding of it. Still don't know one person who had it, but who really knows that? Maybe I had it last year? And no one that I know, has died from it, nor anyone that directly knows someone that died of it. Some friend of a friend of a friend kind of stories.

YES, there are terrible nursing home stories, but not much worse than the normal seasonal flu ravaging such institutions.

I was "warned" during a first responder training last November, that " this was going to be a big flu season". How they knew, I don't know.

3 MILLION Americans die each year of all causes. That's a lot, but unless it is "one of yours", we typical citizens don't really get concerned. Still, 3 MILLION! WTF

At present, overall mortality in America is UNDER expectations.... by about 200K... (maybe it's 20k I forget, and it's not important. UNDER is important) Go figure.

I guess, when anything is looked at closely it appears to be sensational. Like taking a hand magnifier into the garden. Scary!

 

[Industrial Toys]

When morgues are over filled and they are digging mass graves at the outskirts of town, THEN invoke measures to take away freedoms and possibly destroy the economy.

As it is, CNN would probably show a sewer line being constructed and say these are COVID MASS GRAVES. LOL And oh ya, Orange Man Bad, all his fault!

And a word from the optimist side

Honey found to be a better treatment for upper respiratory tract infections than traditional remedies

 

[two_bit_score]

I wonder what the results would be if the Gov. started testing EVERYONE for the common flu?
We KNOW it kills thousands every year and IF asymptomatic people were tested what would we find?

Bingo! Test ‘em and track ‘em!

Technology is the ANSWER!



What was the question?

Still not codified into the crimes code, still not enforceable from the LEO side.

Depends on the state. Most have a law on the books saying something to the effect of "In case of a state of emergency, the governor can issue emergency orders which have the force of law for 30 days"
The orders aren't codefied, but the governor's authority to issue them is.

Yes, I’m well aware where his authority comes from, there’s all sorts of laws that aren’t criminal/traffic law, and not a concern of the police, that was my point. We (the police) aren’t and won’t enforce such things.
