    ...further lowering the mortality rate. I have another friend whose father died of a heart attack. Guess what they put on the death certificate? I *** you not. Is the virus contagious? Yes. Is it deadly? Well, if you are afraid of something that kills 1-2% of the population, then you should have...

    ...Or, it’s closer to 0.1%. Hardly reason for this level of fear/global catastrophe: “This suggests that the overall clinical consequences of Covid-19 may ultimately be more akin to those of a severe seasonal influenza (which has a case fatality rate of approximately 0.1%) or a pandemic...

    FYI reporting is a complete mess. Not even counting the misreported deaths, doctors don’t need a confirmed case of the virus to claim someone died of it (which you can’t, btw, you die of pneumonia or some other complication, not the virus itself), they can literally “presume “ it to have been a...

    But let’s see, what is that comparison? When saying they globe it’s 4% or even less? I mean, hold on while I go find a long list of things were are far more likely to die from. Sources please. Don’t forget to include the stats on how the flu vaccine can cause the flu and caused you to be a...

    My point was, it doesn't make any sense for the average healthy person to be wearing a mask of any kind outside, or alone in your car. You're not going to be protecting anyone or yourself in that kind of environment. It's literally better for you to be getting fresh air. I understand doing what...

    Unless you have an N95 mask, your mask would to nothing to protect your from an "aerosol" type infection. The odds of that happening is so small while you're outside in the fresh air or alone in your car it's not even worth mentioning. I would like to remind everyone that there is a 96%...

    NZ My parents won't let me go vegetarian

    I understand. Stay strong. Also, there is also a wealth of information at NutritionFacts.org PS. Crying a little might not hurt, either. Parent's don't like it when their kids are upset. (Joking, but only a little.) ;)

    I can respect that, if that works for you. It wouldn't work for me. I'd be touching the mask all the time to scratch my nose or whatever or to pull my hair out of my face. I just prefer to keep my hands clean so touching my face is not an issue.

    @Lou - The thing is, I'm far more in need of keeping lists than I am of recipes, and I already started using AnyList and I'm really liking it. AnyList lets you create a list, and tag any number of stores to each item in that list, then filter by store. Example - I'll get Salsa from Ralph's, and...

    I have seen people driving in their cars, *alone*, wearing a mask. Makes zero sense.

    NZ My parents won't let me go vegetarian

    Hey Luis! Welcome to the forum! While I would never want to encourage dissent between you and your parents, I have to ask, is it really that difficult to simply politely decline or refuse to eat the meat they are serving? I am 54 and can think back to a time when I was 12 and my mom made liver...

    Yeah, until the Facemask Police come to your county. They've already started requiring masks in public in Riverside and LA Counties, I believe (Riverside I know for sure, LA County either has already or they're going to).

    Yes! I don't do shots of it or anything, that would be nasty, LOL, but I frequently sprinkle whatever I'm eating that's savory with a bit of turmeric, especially on avocado toast. I did once put a bit too much on, though, so that's definitely possible. But yeah, I do like it. But I also like...

I haven't had time to go check this out yet, but in the interim, I desperately needed something to help me manage my shopping lists in my life (now that it's more important than ever to be prepared before one heads to the grocery store), and I ended up settling on AnyList. I really like it...

    Oh - and whoever came up with that little slider thing so you can change the size of the recipe deserves a medal (or just a really nice paycheck).
