At least they died together. That’s my wife and my wish.

My wish is that my mother-in-law and her pet gerbil might die together.

(Note: Gerbils have a life expectancy of 3-5 years.)

Let’s just say I’m skeptical. The article is vague. However, another freeper said he knew the man personally. Worked with him... so... that’s that.

Yeah, and I also once worked with a guy, knew him personally, who seemed to be the picture of health - until, one day, when he keeled over and it was determined that he had a dissected aorta... so... there's that, too.

Give me an Autopsy Report written by a Medical Examiner, and I'll give it credence. The comments of former coworkers who knew him 20+ years ago - not so much.

You mentioned “Spring breakers”...did you see the possible spread map using cell phone location data?

Do people actually think that proves anything other than there were a lot of people on the beach?

I worked with his dad for 20 years. He was a gym teacher. Totally fit. Avid golfer. Combat medic in Nam. The story is what happened. DeSantis kept Fla open, Spring Breakers, LBGTQ festival, NYers escaping from the city. We think Stewie picked it up in a golf foursome and gave it to Adriann.

Agent Orange?

Just helps to visually illustrate how far a virus could be spread if any of those people on the beach had the virus. Not really useful now, we are well beyond the “contact tracing” phase.

Same thing could be done inside a Costco when people were hoarding toilet paper. It means nothing. We're humans and we interact - at least we did until we were forced into a nonsensical fantasy that we can control billions of ubiquitous organisms that we can't see, smell, or feel.

[Drago]

Well technically you can control your exposure to the “ubiquitous organisms”...but then you would be a hermit. Interact less = less spread of “virii”. My local Costco just went “spaced out” with limits on the # of people inside at one time with a line outside waiting to get in...everyone in line outside spaced out at 8 foot intervals w/cones. The local WalMart Neighbor Market just went to that system too. So lots of smart CEO’s are thinking we can control the organism spread, so who am I to say that they are wrong along with the President. I just hope it isn’t just a lawyer/lawsuit/insurance/liability thing, but true concern for their customers/constituents.

These 2 were in “perfect health”?

Why are their a ge s not mentioned? Turns out they were in their mid 70’s.

Yeah, its the flu and unless you are 70 plus it has little serious effect.

Fatality rate is currently about 2x “regular flu” for ALL age groups:

It would seem that once you are intubated it’s too late for the hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin treatment.

It's like a burning building about to collapse. Quinine/zinc treats the fire, but you got a lot of damage and you need much more (different) treatment to prevent the building from collapsing.
