CDC recommends men shave their beards to protect against coronavirus

Face masks and respirators are being used around the world in an effort to combat the massive global spread of the deadly coronavirus.

The CDC cautions that facial hair can interfere with those devices.

A CDC infographic displays dozens of styles, showing which ones are compatible with masks and respirators.

Some types of facial hair can keep the exhalation valve from working properly, according to health officials.

Styles such as side whiskers, handlebar mustaches, and several others are okay, but styles such as mutton chops and full beards are not recommended.

Things like goatees and villain mustache are okay, with caution.

The main idea is that the hair should not cross the respirator sealing surface.

Take a look at the infographic below:

There is also one suspected infection in Iisalmi

A suspected coronavirus case has emerged in Iisalmi, Northern Savonia, says Iisalmen Sanomat. According to Victoriia Kudrina, an
infectious physician and infectious disease officer of Sote in Ylä-Savo, a person arriving from Italy a week ago is suspected of having the coronavirus.

EMT’s in NYC were already openly at war with the idiot Mayor regarding the rapidly increasing violence they face, and the lack of protection being provided. Corona-Chan will push them over the edge.

Yeah, I'd heard a little about NYC. Something about people calling for ambulances specifically to attack the crew, knowing the police would not do anything about it.

This makes me think a quarantine won't work in Brooklyn. People just don't give a shit.

Wow wtf happened to this thread like a week or two ago it was mostly people posting relevant info and news clippings. Now there are a bunch of people posting dumb shit like how they are gonna be some badass survivalist with 20 guns and ammunition crates while they type away on Kiwi Farms. It's ok to go a bit autistic with it but don't go full R-etard.

People discuss a killer disease in a totalitarian state for 2 months straight. Now it's escaped and the conversation turns to prepping.

Who would have thought.

Could we not blatantly lie to try and score a political dunk in a way that could induce a panic, please? I really don't feel like that's much to ask, but some of these politicians are Hell-bent on using this shit as a fear tactic to try and scare people into voting the way that they want and it's fucking putrid.

Corona Virus will be used to attack Trump.

He will have a rally in a state with 1 case and the media will be all over him for putting public health at risk. He will make a statement about the markets and human rights groups will criticize him for putting profits before people. He will walk on Air Force One without a mask and the media will issue statements from a whistleblower about him trying to poison the crew. It will be constant, inaccurate, hyperbolic, and serene.

Most people will hear this through the filter of Russiagate, Impeachment, and a thousand other nasty tricks people tried to pull on the President. It's probably not going to move any needles.

None of those masks will work for hipsters unless they include a hole for vaping.

Trump has Sabotaged America’s Coronavirus Response

Very long article that lays out the facts I mentioned previously.

 

[Not Really Here]

The cuts I mentioned were not the Ebola funds, they were completely separate from that. They weren’t temporary funds either. The Ebola funds weren’t removed, Trump had to walk that back after people called him out on it including Congress.

The 15 billion?
7.5 billion from unspent Children’s Health Insurance Program ?
800 million from a PPACA "test innovative payment and service delivery models "?
133 million for a railroad unemployment program that expired in 2012?
I don't think you know what the facts actually are.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/economy/trump-calls-on-congress-to-pull-back-15-billion-in-spending-including-on-childrens-health-insurance-program/2018/05/07/9427de18-5216-11e8-a551-5b648abe29ef_story.html

The CDC definitely can help mitigate risk to the US internationally from global diseases and we should be doing that because we have the resources. It clearly helped with Ebola why wouldn’t it help with coronavirus? The WHO can’t do it alone and we can aid the effort in preventing it from coming here by helping in other countries.

Then why did we bother creating and funding the WHO?

The coronavirus crisis team is not the same heads Trump cut back in 18’ nor is it the guy who Bolton forced to resign. They’re different positions that have not been back filled.

Oh no. Not the same people?????? I bet those were the only people in the world that could do the job/sarc.

I get it, facts are hard for Trump and his followers but at least try to read up on what’s going on and how Trump has fucked us.

You don't have "facts" you have random numbers you know nothing about and opinions.

Sorry, just wanna ask what this means. I see it on posts you edit and it's got me curious. Not a big deal in any case, LOL.

Probably drunk-posting and going back to make minor corrections to spelling, etc.

The markets know he’s a liar (down again today) and woefully unqualified to handle this potential pandemic as are the people he surrounds himself with. Lots of people are going to die (his voter base primarily).

Trump has Sabotaged America’s Coronavirus Response

Very long article that lays out the facts I mentioned previously.

Short of shutting down overseas travel, closing schools, banning all public gathering and forcibly quarantining people there isn't much one can do except treat the sick and hammer home 24/7 how important hygiene is. Containment flew out the window last month. Also, the CDC people responding to highly infectious and deadly diseases work out of Fort Detrick, the US Army's bioweapon arm. If you don't think the glowies have been all over that for decades then I have a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn.

The news outlets that keep screaming ORANGE MAN BAD should shut up and start running stories on how to avoid catching the Red Death. Like, don't be a dirty slob.

Trump has Sabotaged America’s Coronavirus Response

Very long article that lays out the facts I mentioned previously.

This article begins by immediately swallowing China's dick so deep that it can lick their boots at the same time. It also didn't go unnoticed that they took a stab at the task force he appointed being "all male" so I'm hesitant to take much else that this article has to say without piling a heap of salt on it, first. There's a lot of bias bleeding through the paragraphs and it's starting to smudge my desk.

Short of... forcibly quarantining people

Is there any good reason not to do this to likely carriers?

Yet all of the major news sites are reporting like it is new. For a media that is supposedly trying to hide how the world is ending, they sure suck at it.

There isn't, but if it happened the presstitutes would find some way to say it's a scary sign of blumpft's nazi handmaiden dystopia and he's about to gas the latinx troons or something.

I’ve been critical of TDS in the media but I also don’t have issue with calling Trump out when he’s fucked up which he did here. That’s what one should do else you’re just an idiot SJW who doesn’t challenge ideologies or have critical thinking.

It should be done but it won't unless people start dropping dead in the streets daily. Something something feelings, that's raciss and ORANGE CHEETO BAD, you know the drill. Of course by then its too late.

Re: PrEP- "Truvada works by blocking an enzyme called HIV reverse transcriptase. By blocking this enzyme, it prevents HIV from making more copies of itself in the body. "

Re: COVID-19 - The standard technique to confirm COVID-19 is nucleic acid testing with reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).

I'm no medfag but .. Wasn't there comparisons to COVID-19 and HIV?

Have you seen the movie Contagion? It’s actually really interesting, but this post reminds me of the guy who swears the government is ignoring an OTC medicine that treats the virus. He’s full of shit, of course but he makes money off the panic and disorder.

Looks like 1 more non Plague Princess/Wuhan evac flight case in the US just popped up

“As of this morning, we still had only 14 cases of the novel coronavirus detected in the United States involved travel to or close contacts with travelers. Coming into this hearing, I was informed that we have a 15th confirmed case, the epidemiology of which we are still discerning,” Azar said.
