I thought people weren't allowed to move? (oh wait, can't be evicted).
You've always complained about drug dealers in your neighborhood.

World domination, and not just economical. Admiring the Chinese, like
you do, is like admiring the Nazis in the 30s.

I wonder if that's also a big problem in gated communities.

I have NOT always complained about drug dealers here. This was a sleepy
little farm town when I moved in.

Of course not. But I wouldn't live in a gated community. For one thing, I
couldn't afford it. For another, you're not allowed much freedom.Too many
rules to comply to.

It's very political in this country.Some people think the restrictions will
be lifted once the election is over.

It's not available in jars. Just the small bottles. And it's not in any

Mail order rarely comes from Bothell.

The reason medical professionals wear masks is for the off chance that they
might sneeze or cough. It keeps the bodily fluids contained.

With most masks, you can blow out candle or match through them. If you can
do that, it's not going to stop those teensy little germs.

Angela is only allowed one N95 mask per week. That's not good! Normally they
are changed with every patient. She also has to wear a face shield now.

That might explain my swelling. My body keeps getting low in sodium so I
have to eat more of it! I had lost weight, thorn it suddenly shot up.

My weight went down 12 pounds last time I was in the hospital. It seems when
I lie down for most of the day, I don't swell. Once I am up and walking
again, I swell.

But if the restrictions are lifted, covid goes rampant again. Every
country that tries to go back to normal, gets a new wave of it and
then has to lock down again. We need a vaccine.

I never said that. I said that curbside pickup had been stopped and they
only resumed it few weeks ago. I said that the stores that delivered, never
had any delivery slots available and some just stopped delivering unless you
were already an established delivery customer.

I also said that Walmart does not deliver in this area but... When I looked
at the Website again, it now says "New! Delivery!" It costs $12.95 per month
or less if you pay for a year in advance. The cost alone would prohibit me
from doing it. And... I don't know if they would deliver to me a I live a
good 7+ miles from the store, depending on what route you take.

I order paper goods, cleaning supplies and non perishable groceries from
Walmart. Target and Family Dollar all the time.

If we pick up an item, we are supposed to buy it. We are not supposed to
look at something and then put it back. If we decide not to take an item ast
the check out stand. they can not put it back on the shrlf. I know people
violate. In fact they hsve proven that the virus is not likely spread from
touching things. Food handlers are required to wear gloves. Some of the
cashiers at Walmart wear them but they always have. It was never suggested
thst the rest of us wear them.

Oh yeah? This woman ran as a Democrat twice and won. She's part of the
reason we had CHOP. She supported and helped them. We are trying to get her
thrown out. She's bad news.

socialism
a political and economic theory of social organization which advocates
that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be
owned or regulated by the community as a whole.

In other words: individuals are not allowed to own companies,
machines, distribution channels or anything else that's part of any
kind of production.

Is there any even slightly successful American politician who wants
that? Does Bernie want that? Does Pocahontas want that?

I haven't seen Covid going "rampant" in the US, except possibly in NYC
at the outset. Cases does not equate to rampant.

Need herd immunity. We are ruining the economy and people lives to try
to stamp out every last infection, and that was never the goal.

Need to replace the narrow minded immunologist with an honest to
goodness epidemiologist.

Need to get the news media to STFU if they don't have any FACTS to provide.

Cases do not equate rampant?

If you'd be going for herd immunity, you'd get a whole lot more
casualties on top of what the US already has.

You just want to hear him say what suits you, but that wouldn't be

Yet a.n.o.t.h.e.r. l.i.e. Don't you get tired of just outright lying?
You are going to burn in Hell with the number of lies you consistently
tell. You n.e.v.e.r. seem to tire of spreading total lies, never. I know
you are the stupidest person in Washington state but I would also like to
think you don't actually believe people are trotting to the front of the
store every 2 minutes continually handing over an item they have touched.
You would not be able to wade through the store with all the 'returned
items.'

Please, just STOP the with the incessant lying.

You don't know what I think of the Chinese. I do like to cook Chinese. So what? I don't like to give out my personal feelings about things. Mostly, I just stick with the facts and have been telling you numbskulls for a decade to never underestimate the Chinese. All ya'alls just think they're funny lookin' people that talk funny. That's really dumb.

Although fancifully put, there *are* recommendations to not handle
products if not sure you will buy them. If you need to check the
nutrition label, supposed to minimally handle to turn it around.

While there seem no known infecions from handling groceries, there is a
grey zone where door knobs and such can carry it. CDC recommends
washing hands after grocery shopping. Excess precaution? Maybe but
harmless.

*Preferred* in VA was to shop every 2 weeks if reasonably possible. No
fines or checks on it and you could shop every day if you wanted to,
but they *asked politely* that we minimize the number of trips per
month. Recommended was every 2 weeks as optimal to still have fresh
veggies and fruits.

Julie exaggurates, but not as bad as some claim here.

Business *owners* here are subject to fines if a client is found
inside, not wearing a mask. It's not all that enforced, but it's
growing as folks start avoiding the 'mask free stores'. Some have
literally lost their business (Bars that tried to stay open and were
not abiding by the distancing). Those fines I am told can be 10,000$
or more?

And what's in the grass. There is a community near here where you can't have

Yes. It's a control thing by our Governor.

There is no law about it, just recommendations.

Because we like fresh fruit and veggies, 2 weeks is about as long as we
go between trips to the grocery. The rain and heat was all messed up
here for my container garden so cropped little. Some green stuff, but
well past flower and set fruit for the year. Even the lettuce died out
this time.

Ha There will not be an effective vaccine. I do understand the social
distancing although I'm not sure that's effective. I don't understand why
most large stores are allowed to be open, but smaller ones can not be. There
is likely to be less customers in a small store. I don't understand why we
could mow our own lawns, but not someone else's lawn for pay. That can be
done totally contactless. I don't understand why nail salons and tattoo
parlors are considered essential businesses. Too much of what they did here
and are still doing, makes no sense.

I haven't seen Covid going "rampant" in the US, except possibly in NYC
at the outset. Cases does not equate to rampant.

---

And we can't trust the figures we are given. If they were to rattle off
figures on the flu on a daily basis, people would freak about that. But they
don't. They are bombarding us to keep us frightened.

I do have friends/relatives in the medical community. I do know people who
had it including Nick Cordero. I was getting updates from his wife at least
daily. I think he was one of the most extreme cases. Very sad.

---

Need herd immunity. We are ruining the economy and people lives to try
to stamp out every last infection, and that was never the goal.

---

Not sure that works in this case as most of the people I know have had it
twice. I don't believe the testing is asccurate either. Is it a case of lots
of false positives or just symptomless people?

---

Need to replace the narrow minded immunologist with an honest to
goodness epidemiologist.

---

Yes.
---

Need to get the news media to STFU if they don't have any FACTS to provide.

---

Right. It's all speculation, just like politics. our Governor said each
person that has it can only infect one more person. That's laughable.

*Many* businesses here have been closed for not following the guidelines and
fights have broken out over the masks. Sometimes verbal, sometimes physical.

My friend works at the business Costco. An old man picked a fight because he
was denied entry for not wearing a mask. And this was prior to the Governor
making them mandatory. Costco had made them mandatory. The whipped his male
member out and peed. Crazy!
