Coronavirus

Hey! 50 is not old!!

It also see,s to be a trend that those who have died from the virus had preexisting breathing issues. The virus is being characterized as a viral form of pneumonia.

Hey! 50 is not old!!

I've got 16 more years that say it is.

 

[sgtsandman]

I'm 51 and still doing military and search and rescue stuff. Age is only a state of mind as long as your body doesn't crumble under you in the process.

Apparently "touching your face" is the new "running with scissors".

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, until it kills you...

 

[8thTon]

I'm 56 and healthier than many much younger people I see. I've no doubt I'll get it, and I'll still be making fun of 2.9's later.

Just like when my hands covered in grease... as soon as I read that my nose itched.

It never fails!

I'm a lot more comfortable touching my face with greasy hands that I would be after driving someone's car with a mung covered steering wheel.
50 isn't old, my driver's licence turns 50 this July.

From my cousin in Italy. If you leave your house with symptoms they will charge you with attempted murder and give you 21 years in jail.

So stay away from sick people, don't lick other peoples boogers, don't pick your friend's nose and don't sneeze in public in Italy? Got it.

Yes, all humans are born as dirty disgusting germ factories, then they become adults so they are free to roam the earth as dirty disgusting germ factories

We are doomed, doomed I tell you...........................

Anyway, wash your hands a little more than you normally would
And avoid touching your face until you do wash up
A virus, or bacteria, can't be absorbed through the skin, just thru eyes, mouth and nose membranes
Even a cut in the skin would be a long shot to let in a virus because its already filled with your bodies anti-bodies to prevent infections at that location

And no, alcohol made for human consumption does not kill viruses(internally or externally, lol), needs to be 98%, which is 196proof, everclear is only 195proof
isoprophyl alcohol is usually 98%, rubbing alcohol

From what I understand 65% alcohol will kill viruses. That's the recommended amount in hand sanitizer.

 

[RonD]

Yes, that's for sure possible, above 60% works in the lab tests, but in the real world alcohol evaporates pretty fast on warm surfaces so dilutes itself faily fast, once wipe is opened and used.......................give me the big guns, 98%
