True that. My doctors in small practices either retired (like my old dermatologist) or joined a big operation (my new dermatologist / Duke Med).

Thank obamacare for that, basically tilted the playing field to favor big hospitals, big insurance, big pharma. Massive sellout of our doctors and nurses, pretty much eliminated the ability to run a private practice. Sadly one bitter senator managed to "save" obamacare, pissed that he lost the presidential primary to an upstart.

Re: [MBZ] ***SPAM*** RE: [Okietalk] Masks
For some reason we as a society have decided it makes sense to pay the bulk of our health care workers peanuts. We value the CEO way more than the people who actually do any work. I'm not really sure what a hospital CEO does beside figuring out ways to generate funding for his/her own salary... -Curt On Monday, July 6, 2020, 4:46:06 PM EDT, Allan Streib via Mercedes wrote: I think the answer is, like most things about this disease, we don't really know.

Re: [MBZ] ***SPAM*** RE: [Okietalk] Masks
I think the answer is, like most things about this disease, we don't really know. Droplets, spit, snot -- yes a mask will obviously contain that. Aerosolized virus particles, probably not. It would be like trying to contain mosquitoes with chicken wire. If that turns out to be how the virus spreads, a typical "cloth mask" will be basically useless. It's my guess that in the end we'll conclude that basic hygiene (washing hands, not picking your nose, covering your coughs, staying home if you're sick) will be about the best we can do. A large number of people are bad at this. I suspect a large number of nursing home workers are shockingly bad at this.

[MBZ] ***SPAM*** RE: [Okietalk] Masks
I have a question: What is the particle size that contain the virus as expelled from humans when they talk, breathe, sing, sneeze, or cough? Without knowing that critical fact, we have no idea how effective masks are.
