That's how it was out there today, busier than normal. They were having to close parking lots at trailheads because they were at capacity.

Are the trailheads parking lots closed?
Seattle’s Leaders Let Scientists Take the Lead. New York’s Did Not
The initial coronavirus outbreaks on the East and West Coasts emerged at roughly the same time. But the danger was communicated very differently.
Good long read, on messaging. (King County did well. NYC and the nation did not.)
Is there an english translation of your study ?
Campgrounds are, as are a small handful of the blatant "idiot goes here" gated staging areas with signs and such. But this place doesn't rely on 'trailheads' for access. There's a lot of informal and neighborhood accessed stuff that used to exist below the moron radar. But thanks instagram! Colorado straight up closed the national forests. They didn't do that here.
Plus we just have a bigass cool lake to look at, it's 20 degrees cooler here than the hellscape all these fools decided to move to when they prioritized money over daily environment so it's not like you 'need' to be hiking and biking on trails to enjoy something here.
Work of Los Alamos scientists suggests COVID-19 can turn really bad again much faster than it got better | ZDNet
Los Alamos scientists estimated how fast the curve is flattened in 51 countries. They determined that arbitrarily re-opening societies can allow COVID-19 to undo that progress much faster than it took to achieve it. Widespread testing would help to manage the difference.

They closed our stuff a month ago. So basically only locals that can ride/walk to trails use them, so the hordes of Covidians from Montreal can't come up here to spread their shit. We also have random police checkpoints. You're from the city and you go up north for no good reason, here's your $1500 fine.
Yeah we've covered this. You live in civilized first world country. We have exceptionalism. Like "we'd be a functioning intelligent society, except we have all these dumb shits living around us that think if you call a virus chinese enough times, it loses its power."
You get those dick pics I sent or what? I can fold that whole mess inwards if it helps. Get me outta here.
sweetie
Jesus christ, you fuckin illiterate too? I gotta fucking show you how the internet works? Newsflash shithead, you are not uniquely posting in this thread free of other fucking people around here.

You lost me about three words in but I thoroughly enjoyed it anyway Well, what can I tell ya'.

Fucking flashbacks.
triple decker!
That study was debunked, IIRC.
We have our dumfucks. They're usually tamer and non red hat wearin' guntard.
Glad to see you're giving this second though. I'll have you in a gimp suit in no time.
Fuck China.

At least 17 people would complain about travel restrictions being unamerican, but Italy's plan seems fairly sound to me https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-52435273
Provided people are willing to re-lockdown if need-be, this seems like a very reasonable path forward for us as well. Far better than indefinite lockdown until "it's over". Then again, we're governed by goddamn idiots, so they'd probably fuck it up entirely, so um, maybe not?

A lot of countries have the same or similar strategies. I suspect that we are going in a "back and forth" kind of scenario.
Germany's reproduction figure needs to stay around 1,1 (correct me if I'm wrong), if numbers would go up to around 1,25 they would reach max. ICU capacity around June or July again.
Not sure about other countries in yurp as I tend to follow only german media (Switzerland, Germany and Austria) but I'd wager to say that the whole continent has plus minus the same capacities right now. Hospitals are adapting with separating COVID areas to different buildings in my region which is a very positive development.
That way other emergencys and scheduled appointments can be handled better.

Havent seen the debunkage.
But somehow common sense tells me if you cough and breathe heavily I dont want to be behind you on my bike, also breathing heavily.
Im not sure theres already numbers available on infectious dose but Im not taking any chances.
Ill just ride on my own.
The Viral ‘Study’ About Runners Spreading Coronavirus Is Not Actually a Study
Belgian researchers chose to bypass all standard science publishing protocols to publish research that has been overhyped and isn't well understood.

So not really debunked but not a very scientifically sound study either.
However, the path that these droplets follow according to their model seems pretty logical to me.
Until we know exactly what the viral load is and just how it behaves in practice I dont think its a bad id to stay far away from someone ahead of you on a single track.
Especially when both are breathing heavily.

I believe we all owe you an apology, and perhaps a new custom title.
"I poopdecked before it was cool"?
I already knew this from my days doing chemical warfare in the Army. The 6 feet thing makes sense and to prevent getting it from someone's snot-rockets or lung-attack, but otherwise chemicals and particles quickly disperse and reach levels that are effectively zero. Despite what people think, chemical warfare is only effective in the right conditions of wind, weather/humidity, etc. It doesn't affect a wide area well (unless you have an army's-worth of guns and delivery systems spread out), more of a point weapon for concentrated formations/population. So the virus may be "hanging around" for a while on surfaces is plausible, but catching it outside of a few feet in the open air (not indoors) would be be highly unlikely, given how particles and the like disperse.The Viral ‘Study’ About Runners Spreading Coronavirus Is Not Actually a Study

It looks like the world will hit a million cases today, with Drumphland owning 50%.

32 Days on a Ventilator: One Covid Patient’s Fight to Breathe Again (Published 2020)
Jim Bello, 49 and healthy, fell gravely ill, highlighting agonizing mysteries of the coronavirus. Doctors’ relentless effort to save him was a roller-coaster of devastating and triumphant twists.
As a radiologist the chest radiographs here are really striking. As a human and a parent, so is the story.
32 days on a vent and ECMO, and now home.
