Coronavirus Coronavirus: In-Iowa General Discussion (Not Limited)

Starts at 1:16:20

The scientist was talking about it on surfaces and in the air, NOT in the body. Once it's in the body, it's there to do whatever it's going to do.

I wish the scientist would have started laughing when he was asked if injecting the body with disinfectants was something.

Good grief.

So what does everyone think gets opened up here May 1st? Restaurants, but only with a certain amount of capacity? Salons? I highly doubt bars.

By the way I think it’s a terrible idea to start opening up anything till we hit our peak which isn’t predicted till early May. Extend the order till May 15th and take a look then.

Yeah I wasn’t talking about it when it is in the body. Only air and surfaces.

From the article:

"Rossman, the Kent University doctor, added that the study from the University of Aix-Marseille, along with others focused on inactivation, isn't relevant to the seasonality of the virus."

I pointed this out when someone posted an article about this study earlier and I'll say it again, this is studying temperatures required to disinfect surfaces in a lab, not transmission of a disease in the environment. Totally different. We will see how much seasonality, if any, there is to this virus soon.

If you’re going to do restaurants with reduced capacity, why not bars? Is there a difference in risk?

I would think you would have some legal challenges on your hands if you tried to open restaurants but not bars.

 

[Macloney]

There should also be a risk when you're a renter. You don't pay rent you get evicted, you don't pay your mortgage you get evicted, you don't pay your car loan you lose the car, etc. That's how things are supposed to work.

I agree with you 100%, but we are talking about two different things. Not apples to apples.

I anticipate non emergency medical stuff will start opening back up.

I don't think anything will change and there will be an extension of current policy until mid may.

Imagine thinking any of those ramblings are gospel.

Saw a clip tonight on NBC news interviewing a pub owner somewhere, and he was rattling off a bunch of different ideas, like having fewer tables available, spread out, and not allowing people to sit at the at the actual bar.

I also think about campgrounds: do you limit how many per site? WI typically had 6 people as the limit at most places to start.

I agree that would be the correct move. The optics are not in their favor right now.

I would think that they’d want to wait to see what happens in Georgia, Texas, etc.

Of course that’s probably just the opposite of what will happen.

Washington and Oregon opening up elective surgery in May, dental as well.

That and they just announced this testing program. They should wait a few weeks to roll that out and see how it goes at least. We'll see.

Good luck to all the folks in Iowa.

They talked about it In the White House press briefing One of the scientists said that 75 degrees and humid temps kills the virus in like a minute. Don’t quote me on that but I’m sure there will be articles coming out that will break it down based on the temperature and humidity. you can also pull up a clip on YouTube and watch it for yourself, was very interesting. It was only like 5 or 10 minutes long.

That really wasn't much of a scientist that said it.

 

[jkbuff98]

Wondering if the western Iowa regions get some things opened up before the eastern regions.

I would assume transmission rates at a bar where some are likely intoxicated would be higher, yes.

I'm sure drunk people will be superb at social distancing.

 

[keepngoal]

Instead of what types of business opens up.... let’s demand to know what the business will do to ensure social distancing and safe surroundings... and go that route instead of by “field”.
