I think it's a matter of terminology. Droplets are airborne for a short period of time. The experts are all saying that is the risk. They give you 2 meters as the social distancing measure. If the virus was truly suspended, floating in the air for a long period of time, the social distancing would not be relevant. Everyone going to store for food would almost certainly breathe it in. That's not what the experts are saying about it. The issue is being within 3 meters when someone expels the virus. But the droplets don't suspend in the air. They fall on things like tables. That's the risk as I understand it.

If economic suffering due to the virus becomes the main issue, that's even more reason to elect Trump. I'm not even a Trump fan. Never been. I would love Cruz or Rubio to be president. I would even vote for a Democrat if they would just bring one forward that didn't have dementia, among a few other issues. And no, Bernie being a communist isn't going to be president. Not as long as thinking people still exist as a majority.Comment

Sure he made it famous while Bernie's proposal is way better as you get free healthcare and that means more than 1k per month (about 10k or so in savings per year) and more than the 8% you are getting from the orange clown economy that just went to cero@WhatTheFFacts: Studies show that sarcasm enhances the ability of the human mind to solve complex problems!Comment

V’s way of analyzing this would be like talking about how bad the Golden State Warriors record was this year without even mentioning that Curry and Thompson were not playing. Not mentioning those two is leaving out the most important context of the Warriors season, just like not mentioning the virus is leaving out the only important context in the current political/economical discussion.

Getting closer and closer to a mandatory quarantine. Unless they are suspending bills and not allowing them to pile up then it won’t work.Comment

Lol, it’s just hilarious to watch V try to apply political rationale in normal times to an unprecedented virus which has the country on the verge of virtual lockdown.
