    When you have flu like thingy your nose sinuses close up right? Few squirts Of spray few sneezes and back to breathing better. 
     

    now Imagine the same inflammation spreading all the way to the major and minute airways in the lungs and plugging up everything. And No way to clear it up and clean up and imagine how breathing is going to be. 

    I almost died from croup when I was 7 or 8, like I was blue and could not physically inhale or exhale and had to be intubated. Same experience as what a bad case of covid19 will do.

    I still remember being in and out of consciousness, hearing a priest praying over me and realizing that might be it. Was not great, dont want to do it again.

    As of now, there have been about 81,000 cases in China, about 63,000 of those have recovered.  The occurrence of newly reported cases in China is slowing.  Containment measures in China appear to be having a positive effect. 

    We have lower population density than China and access to better medical care.  We also have access to more information than China had when things started in December.

    How are they testing? Are they still testing or just saying good enough? Lots of videos of vans piled high with corpses making their way around the internet where mom/dad/grandma/grandpa didnt make it. 

     

    Nivin's post above should be the #1 reference in this conversation. For obvious reasons beyond the common sense aspect.

    Huh

    Found a foot position on the peg that wasn't too painful so I got a few sessions in after the crash/sprain. I can't walk on it or put much weight on it at all. It's actually probably going to end up being a pretty bad one. Will have to see how it feels tomorrow.

    It's easy to find employment when bodies line the streets because of a failed viral containment policy. 

     

    Also did you know that Hitler escaped to Antarctica in 1944 and built a Nazi mega-base under the ice to control the flat earth from afar and perpetuate the zionist globe agenda???

  5. Good luck. My sister's wedding photographer never gave her the photos she paid thousands of dollars for, the lady just up and disappeared with the $$ after spending the day at the wedding with her camera. Make sure the authorities can find the guy to serve him if you go that route otherwise things just get stuck in perpetual limbo and you never get anything, even if the court orders a judgement against him.

  6. I actually have 2 street legal-ish bikes now and one of them might be able to go over 60mph. If I have a free weekend this warm season I may come out for a ride or 2.

    By nothing, do you mean you maintained same throttle position or did you roll off? If I remember correctly Code says that in a slide you are to maintain throttle. Correct me if I’m wrong. I know when things get scary for me my natural instinct kicks in and I roll off, unless it happens so fast I do nothing. 

    Maintain throttle and smoothly work towards getting the bike more upright. If you chop the throttle the bike will snap back into alignment and you'll get one of these:

  8. Sex Machine Racing clutch and springs put in the grom. No more clutch slipping hopefully means better drive out of corners. Next up is probably the Kitaco clutch cover case so I can ditch the damn oil spinner, I never realized how heavy that thing is - probably a good 5-7lbs of rotating mass that's eating away at rev speed.

    They actually are superior to any local radio and/or television news network, as far as accuracy, grammatical errors, and syntactical mistakes. A friend of mine is a videographer for WEWS, and told me much of their online news copy is sent to Pakistan for editing due to costs. Ridiculous.

    The quality of the programming on NPR has never been bad, it just tends to be politically biased and has been for a long time. But, what news source isn't these days, one way or another.

    There was a feature story about this bill yesterday afternoon on NPR, which included expert testimony from an ENT doctor about the dangers of wind noise. They also cited several studies which refuted the assertion that ear plugs blocked critical sounds such as sirens. I was expecting this to be followed by an interview with Tonik . . .

    The story can still be accessed on the NPR web site.

    Also having trouble locating this story
