RIP/BDE Master Thread

Was in perfect health, going on with his day to day business with his sweet smile.

yep.

[chevron]

Sad. Was still hearing from people today that no one who was in perfect health fell from this. Only when having underlying conditions AND being sick beforehand is covid19 deadly. Guess people still in denial. Hashem Yerachem.

Do you really believe that?

[shaulyaakov]

There are also people who never knew they had a condition.

[Yonah]

This is something which gets lost. Underlying condition does not mean that they were about to die. Many could have lived for quite some time had they not been hit by this virus.

Exactly.

A lot of the underlying conditions are things people can live with and can be managed, but combined with corona can be deadly - like autoimmune issues and breathing/respiratory issues.

This is what the situation is so tragic, You have some people out there thinking that it's okay they're young they're healthy At least they seem healthy and then boom they get the virus and..

This is why everybody needs to be serious about full quarintine And if going out of the house you should be using gloves and a mask and keeping 6 to 10 feet away

Cdc recommends against masks for average people.

does that mean it’s a bad idea for someone to wear a mask if they happen to have one?

Depends on the type. Many are only good at keeping germs in, not filtering them out. And if it's a better grade one, your local doctor might need it more...

So operate on this premise. so many people are using the logic that everybody has it so what's the big deal Yah but not everybody does.

Wearing the mask should also be a perventive thing.

It is I said many times the need for the distance for staying at home etc

I believe the reason CDC is not recommending it, is because doctors need it more.
I think any mask is a protective measure, ans there would be enough, they would encourage all of us to wear it.

[yuneeq]

Cdc recommends against masks for average people.

Not because they don’t work, but because they don’t have enough for everyone, especially health care providers. But they are absolutely helpful if you have one. Helpful for yourself (helpfulness varies by mask type) and helpful not to infect others.

BDE.

Not important in the context of a person's life, but this makes a difference to how the perpetrator is charged. I believe that now he is eligible for the death penalty. Sorry for the insensitivity...
