If Gillum won......

Posted by LuchAAA on Thu Jun 25 17:03:08 2020

Gyms in Florida would be closed.

So if you go to the gym in Florida just remember that.

Florida would not have been part of the second wave.

So if you catch Coronavirus in Florida just remember that.

Why? Even DeBlassio went to the gym when he told everyone to stay home and not go to him.

Democrats all violated their own stay at home orders. He's no different.

Indoors. Exercising too hard to wear a mask. More exhalation and more inhalation because everyone is exercising hard. So one of the places where you are most likely to be breathing other people's exhalations.

That makes a gym a really easy place to spread covid.

Or let's put it another way. If covid didn't spread easily in a gym, where would it spread? We know a family barbecue can spread covid, and a bar can spread covid, so why wouldn't a gym be an even riskier place?

I still think that it’s the touching doing the most work. Inhaling coronavirus is much less likely to lead to disease.

Our gym has machines separated more than usual with some of the cardio equipment outside. And they limit the people inside.

Classes are riskier. Spin. Yoga.

But lifting weights us fine. Most gyms tell people to wipe down equipment and provide spray and paper towels to do so.

I have theories as to why you don't lift weights.

I've heard the opposite - it's mostly an airborne disease of tiny droplets. The heavier ones that you see fall right to the ground. It is the invisible ones that float around longer that cause the trouble.

I disagree. It is not a skin disease. A sick person will exhale 10k virus particles per exhale, in a gym that's about 15-26 feet spread. (unless I messed up and we're talking 10 million particles per exhale?)
How many breaths do you take at a gym? And given that this is indoors, with heavy aerosolization, how many millions of active virus particles are you inhaling.
Given that Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome is not a flu (I still have to argue with dumbass assholes about this), it mimics HIV in how it rapidly gets to work and races the immune system. I've heard a microbiologist state that your mucus won't do much to defend against it. So good old fashioned spit isn't an answer.

Of course, all of this information is from oversea's and things are different in America. Including biology and physics.

Until recently I don’t think that most gyms had sanitizing wipes though. And as you know, over 90% of guys don’t wipe down equipment. I’m one of the few at any gym that I go to. Maybe they’re too macho.

Everytime I went to a gym, I'd get sick a few days later. Everytime.

Do crossfit in an apartment at home. It's safer. Even with holes in the floor.

Well, the WHO agrees with you, but a whole bunch of leading scientists don't.

But it's a very good thing that your gym separates the equipment as much as it can.

There has been lots of debate about this but I think that the scientific consensus is that it’s not airborne. It can be airborne but it doesn’t stay airborne. At least not in concentrations high enough to cause infection.

I agree that classes are worse, because people breather more deeply.

You may have theories as to why I don't lift weights, but they would be inherently wrong.

See the link in my other post. That was the scientific consensus in March, but they (WHO excepted) have learned a lot since then.

I may be out of date, but in my opinion a big sign that it’s not airborne is that all face coverings are similarly effective. More correctly they were for SARS.

No. It's airborne, but you have to inhale enough of it. Passing by a masked individual in the supermarket for 3 seconds is low risk, but chatting close-up with someone in a bar for an hour, even without any physical contact, isn't.

All face coverings limit the distance that people's exhalations travel.

I would think it's the other way around. If touching spread it more than breathing it, EVERYONE would be infected by now.

It's about the virus. My condo outdoor pool is closed too. My association couldn't care less about election, and the pool would have by shut after Labor day anyway. It's about liability insurance, lack of pool furniture, cleaning intensity, enforcing social distancing, and staffing costs for all of that, for which there is no budget.

They have a towel, they wipe and then keep the towel!

My gym had towels and wipes, but the wipes weren't sanitizing, ie they don't kill viruses. Now they have sanitizing wipes.

Yeah, you can't 100% avoid hand contact.

I go to a store and take something off a shelf and put it in my basket. Somewhere along the line something I bought might have been previously been touched by a covid-positive person and then put back on the shelf.

So now I might have this slightly covid-contaminated item in my basket. The bagger touches it with her gloved hand, so now she can pass the bit of covid on to all my other purchases. Or she can contaminate something of mine from a prior purchase that she touched.

Then I go home and thoroughly wash my hands, and only then do I put stuff away in the fridge. But it's still potentially ever so slightly contaminated - I don't wipe down every food item before putting it away.

And we know 40 degrees F doesn't kill covid. So 12 hours later I take it out of the fridge, and once again my hands might be ever so slightly contaminated.

If this were like some nerve agent the Russians use to kill people, we'd all be dead by now.

And meanwhile, people go to parties, bars, and restaurants, and never touch anyone else, and end up sick.

It goes from an infected hand touching your stuff, then you touch that, and you touch your face. Think of wet paint getting on your hands and everywhere it goes.
