Yes but would you consider said people to be widely traveled, and to have a very wide social circle, and to know lots of humans incredibly intimately?

edit - yup that’s basically it.
the 3 people I’m thinking of I’ve grown up with and are long time friends, and in a strange way they’ve lived lives that look well fleshed out but in actuality give the illusion of it.
Ex. A trip to Cancun Mexico to the beaches while staying in a resort, etc was their “culture” shock. Lmao.
Oh well.

I think huge swathes of humans don't look very far beneath the surface of themselves or anyone else.
To know out, one really truly has to look in, right?

President Trump taking hydroxychloroquine reminds me of 1981 - when B.T. Collins called a press conference and drank a cup of the pesticide Malathion in order to show it's relatively low toxicity. Probably one of the grandiose slams of all time.

I had culture shock once. It was the first time I set foot inside a Walmart, in TN, back in 2017.
I shit you not.

The guy that made leaded gasoline did something very similar (huffed the lead additive) stating he could repeat the exposure daily with no ill effects. He got lead poisoning.
Anyway Reddit had a massive thread on people's experience with covid https://www.reddit.com/r/askreddit/comments/gln8tu/people_who_had_covid19_or_know_someone_who_did/
Some 8000 comments many detailing age, health, and symptoms and even timelines.
It's definitely one of those crazy viruses that just randomly decides it's going to fuck you up. Health and history be damned. E: and it spares alot of people you would expect to get very ill and die.
Alot of viruses behave this erratically. We got unlucky that this one happens to also be wildly contagious.
Hope y'all are being safe and doing alright.

A reasonably healthy, athletic, 38 year old member of my AA homegroup died from it last week. Another 30 something woman from our group is currently on a ventilator. My sponsor has been sick, but not hospitalized for over 2 weeks (tested positive). There's probably more I won't know about until we stop our Zoom meetings and get to talk again face to face. Granted, my county is a hotspot, but everyone I see while shopping or whatever is wearing a mask. Any anti-maskers out there can kindly go fuck themselves.

If someone without a mask gets within 6 feet of someone with a mask the person with the mask should be allowed to defend themselves.

Masks primarily keep your COVID in.
IS WHY WE ALL MUST WEAR MASKS 
If you start thinking for the benefit of others, your benefit is implicit.
If we all wear masks we are all protected by each others masks.
The Southern African philosophy of Ubuntu: "My value is defined by what I can do for others"
equals: "ask notb what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country"
WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR YOUR COUNTRY IS WEAR A MASK

if you wear an n95 underneath an earloop mask you're protecting yourself and other people as long as you don't touch your face after touching the mask.

those KN95 with the ear loops aren't genuine n95 masks but they're better than bandanas

darn it the hunt continues
I know kn95's are supposed to protect to the same extent as an N95, it's just Chinese standards not US standards. I'm not quite sure of the implications of that, but theoretically it should offer the same protection, right?
Mine are so old and used up, and haven't really been sterilized all that properly, so I guess it's better than nothing.
