    She is directly quoted....

    "Q is a Patriot"

    But I agree I'd like somebody to dig a LOT deeper into that statement...

    What exaclty are you questioning? That there are hundreds of thousands of folks in the US who believe the Q conspiracy theories (in one form or another), or that the QAnon nonsense is actually a problem? Something else?

    Just to start, they're holding rallies under the guise of saving children from the pedophile canibal cabal that they think exists: https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-news/qanon-looms-behind-nationwide-rallies-viral-hashtags-n1237722

    Well for starters it's labeled a flu, so there is that :) Granted it's an aggressive strain unlike any in a very long time, there is that.. Of course they, are the same "Slightly less today with current COVID precaution mind you, but at risk all the same as with any virus..

    But here is why I say you clearly are not following my entries and for the last time are simply trolling..

    Two times I have addressed your question and yet you troll with the same question over and over.. So how would you like me to solve this merry go round? I know how I generally stop it, but I'll let you have/make the final decision bro..

    What experts are labeling it a flu? The only people I see calling it a flu are either ignorant laypeople or bigots who just need it to fit nicely into a racist portmanteau.

    Then again I have read that once the mask is moist from breathing the 0.1 micron can and does migrate to the outside of the mark and is why the CDC warns against handling, and pulling the mask on and off and creating surface contamination.. I contend that once the pathogen is/has migrated to the outside of the material a cough or sneeze at that point it just as dangerous as a cough into the arm technic..

    Here's the scoop:

    Trump's performance in the debate was hideous.

    To change the topic, his people claim he has covid.

    Wait two weeks and he will be CURED!!

    And he'll say, "See, covid isn't so bad!! I'm fully recovered"....

    ...and he'll have avoided having anymore debates....

    That would be evil. The stock market rises and sets on the President's health.

    The FBI has designated Qanon as a domestic terror threat, including them in it's bulletin on "Conspiracy theories very likely* to motivate some domestic extremists to commit criminal, sometimes violent activity", with some real-life examples of the crazy things it's followers have in fact been motivated to do.

    * "Very likely" in FBI parlance translates into highly probable (80-95% likely).

    So no. Not "liberal media having fun".

    No. An incubation period ends with the start of symptoms. Trump has mild symptoms, he has past the point of incubation period. What is true is that the virus initially is not very aggressive so we don't know yet if Trump will remain with mild symptoms or will evolve to moderate or severe symptoms, and this typically takes 4 to 7 days.

    Maybe Trump should have been wearing the mask instead of carrying it?

    All of this is correct.

    I'd add the following:

    The 0.3 micron pore size is not an issue for another reason: brownian motion. Actually 0.1 micron particles are easier to trap by a 0.3 micron size than a 0.3 micron particle, as paradoxical as this may sound to those who do not have good understanding of the physics involved. I've posted explanations, before.

    The poor seal for the ear loop masks is a true issue, but there are ways around it. One can interlace 3 rubber bands in a way that when applied on top of the mask they enhance the seal, or even better, make a neoprene rubber brace that does it even better. I've taught people how to do it, in other posts.

    I think there is a fair amount of truth in that statement. I have wondered if it was timed this way to explain things if he loses re-election. Again, evil to the core.

    The moisture doesn't shrink the virus down to it's naked size of 0.1 microns. It's still encased but wicking causing overall dampness allows it to travel with that moisture, and of course moisture is easily transferable. Ordinarily, they're trapped (enmeshed) by the materials. That's why, as you say, people are supposed to handle them properly, change them, dispose properly, etc. etc.

    This story gets worse every hour. Trump knew Hope had it and that he’d been exposed. Still flew to a fundraiser. Mike Lee has been sick a few days already, potentially infecting the judiciary committee...
    Another trumpian **** show

    Mike Lee had the huggies and was holding his mask.

    Probably infected everyone he touched. What a mess, but at least it sounds like the WH isn’t lying about trump being sick.
