Never is a long time.The world will never again be the same as it was pre Covid-19.
It changed forever after 911, it will change forever after Covid-19.Never is a long time.
I didn't know fairies had tails? Sorry, I had to....:behindsofa:I think your "study" where 85% of the population has antibodies is a fairy tail.
At least with crossing the road, you have the option to look both ways to make sure the coast is clear. The virus on the other hand is invisible and one person without symptoms can infect many.Another thing is there is risk with anything in life....if it’s not a virus it could be crossing the road...
85% have developed antibodies? Not according to WHO.There are studies finding that most of the population has developed antibodies they found about 85% of population has them already...antibodies would be faster than a vaccine...I’m not downplaying the risk but what’s the point of living in paranoia and fear only to die anyway? Everything is transitory including this...
Sorry to hear that.we had a family friend who died of covid19 three weeks ago. He was in his forties he died within the week he tested positive. The hospital sent him home and told him to self isolate himself because he only showed mild symptoms. He died in his basement. His wife furious right now. So for everyone here on terb, tread carefully!!
Stay safe everyone!
I think many people will be surprised to know a vaccine isnt a guarantee, and even if produced viruses DO mutate.like many have stated - yea I'll adopt the 'wait and see' approach and thats if and when a vaccine is rushed out to the general public. I need to know that this vaccine is working and has no hiccups. So 2020 is done lets see what happens in 2021
I hope you're right. I don't know about cruises though. I think they might be finished...at least for a long while. I have never had the desire to go on a cruise. Well before covid-19, you always heard about people getting stuck on the ships because of a virus. No thanks.Couldn't agree more Drewstar. Life will go on. We will put this behind us, and sure, for the first while there will be new practices and policies. But people are dillusional to think that Cruises, major sporting events, Concerts, Las Vegas etc are going anywhere. In due time, all will be back to normal.
All the fairies I know like tails. Ooops, did I really just say that. :doh:I didn't know fairies had tails? Sorry, I had to....:behindsofa:
Interesting thought Croft. The cruise industry will really need to adapt a lot to survive. Over half of all cruise passengers are over 50. An entire third are over 60.I hope you're right.

It has never appealed to me either.I hope you're right. I don't know about cruises though. I think they might be finished...at least for a long while. I have never had the desire to go on a cruise.

She’s going to take them at their word that they have self-isolated for 4 weeks and have no pre-existing conditions? I realize there’s no way to know for sure, so it would take an incredible amount of trust.My regular is 28. She has been self isolating for 4 weeks, which is roughly the maximum incubation period for the coronavirus. So from May 01, she is ready to start seeing regulars she has known for at least 6 months on the following conditions: they must have self isolated for at least 4 weeks and have no underlying medical conditions. Only one customer a day.
Why do you believe the risks with SBs are more manageable?My current thinking (subject to change, as the little head takes over the brain, again) is that I would not see SPs at all, but rather focus more on SBs. Yes, I know that SPs do not require significant amount of time invested in cultivating “relationship”, but only some research (thank you TERB), and hence I have resorted to that in the past. But, having had several SB “relationships” since January 2018, I feel that a better option, at least for me, is to put in the extra effort with SBs, creating more of a personal encounter, and minimizing the risks that OP has cited (I know that one can have risks with SBs also, but I have to think that they are more manageable, IMHO).
Right and her real name is Candy and every customer she has met is named John and has been isolating for 4 weeks and all carry a certificate that they are virus free, honest, and for sure no more than one client a day no matter how they beg or how much money they offer.My regular is 28. She has been self isolating for 4 weeks, which is roughly the maximum incubation period for the coronavirus. So from May 01, she is ready to start seeing regulars she has known for at least 6 months on the following conditions: they must have self isolated for at least 4 weeks and have no underlying medical conditions.
