Just wash hands with SOAP, preferably dish washing liquid, before touching your face, and chance of getting infected drop close to zero.

No need to panic. I am 80 years old and not in panic. If I can go on a cruise end of February, and do all my normal activities so far, and no symptoms of any sickness, anybody can do it. Just use the brain God gave you. Washing hands will also reduce chance of catching common cold and influenza.

 

A good Dish washing fluid such as Dawn works better than hand sanitizers. Because it dissolves the protective fat layer around the virus cell. Then the virus cell dies quickly.

The destination is a herd immunity and we are moving toward it day by day as the PCR test positive cases are increasing, lockdowns are just like kicking the can down the road..................

The economy is bad enough and the chance for better economic data is much higher than for even worse data, and so the stock market is the place to park the money thanks the Fed for such a low rate.

There are worse things than death - like the college and pro football seasons being canceled.

 

Kansas State is the first Power 5 college team to shut down practice. The Houston and Boise teams have already shut down. Thirty LSU players are in quarantine. Clemson has 23 players testing positive.

 

And the beat goes on as Covid19 works its way through the young, going to bars, dancing and prancing with no masks and social distancing skin to skin.

As I said thats just kicking the can down the road. Its easier to kick the can (The pandemic) down the road for countries with small populations or with an authoritarian country. But in the US a herd immunity is the ultimate solution and we are on the road to it. So with the nucleic acid based positive cases going up we are getting closer to the herd immunity every day ..........

Do you have any evidence supporting this assertion? Further, even if we were getting closer to herd immunity, at the moment, it's not at all clear that immunity lasts longer than a few months, and there is some evidence that it may not. Would you trade this way, on a hunch or hope? The stakes are high, possibly hundreds of thousands of human lives and health consequences for multiples of that number.

From the published data and analyses of the data the fatality rate is not much higher than that of flu, and majority of the patients under 60 recovered.  This is the base for a herd immunity and a her immunity is the ultimate solution unless effective vaccines are available.................
