Right but things there are looking like a true second wave is starting. People are increasingly loosening their social distancing, gatherings, masks, etc. Despite increasing numbers schools start next week there. It seems to show that no matter what you do or how well, as soon as things start going towards normal, cases will rise. Just like us and the rest of the world it’s basically just wait until a vaccine/some cure or herd immunity through enough cases. There is no normal until then as people want to suggest. |

Yesterday appears on balance to be better than Wednesday of last week. 10k less cases and about 20 less deaths.

ER is on pop network.
Season 8 last episode, Season 9 episode 1. dealing with a small pox breakout and mutation. Worth the watch. Then find Numbers-season 1 episode 6. Just like it is today. |

I haven't seen my daughter in a few months because she works on the COVID unit at one of the major KC hospitals but I told her if she wants to see me she has to get an antibody test . So she did and it came back negative.
I am honestly surprised by that considering she had very little PPE use early on and had patients spray crap over her when putting patients on the vent etc. She is also O+ like me so don't know if they might play a part or maybe there is some sort of immunity for people. Or she just got lucky so far. |

The only other thing I could think of is she wasn't wearing much PPE back in March and maybe got it early and the antibodies are now gone so the tests can't detect it. I don't know much about these antibody tests to say either way though. |

One thing is for sure, a mask does not protect you from some guy with too much polo cologne.

Hopefully she's got everything in place now, so no worries. I hate that you ahve to be away from her. Understandable though. |

we're incredibly complex and have hundreds of thousands of moving parts (I didn't even get to how our environment comes into play, except kinds: epigenetics). it's not a shocker that something unprecedented like this has many facets and is the ultimate moving target. |
