It's a proven fact that COVID19 was introduced to China by deviant space aliens in lab Civets which were subsequently sold in markets for exotic meats. On Tue, Nov 21, 2023 at 5:24 PM der.hans via PLUG-discuss < plug-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org> wrote: > Am 21. Nov, 2023 schwätzte Vikriti D'Vita

I am going to make this reply and I'm out. We will never know the count of people who died from Covid. There was a financial incentive for hospitals to report deaths as Covid. It is my understanding the guidelines stipulated that anyone who had died having Covid could be counted as a Covid

I found myself wondering much the same recently. I can recall that at one time it seemed like you couldn't even go very far in technical circles without tripping over colo ads for places that would take desktop/tower boxes as well as rackmount servers. Back then I wasn't interested in that but

Dunno. It wouldn't be good for business. But if the owner were very anti-vax, anti-mask, and wanted to stand on that hill, maybe. On Tue, Nov 21, 2023 at 2:26 PM Vikriti D'Vita via PLUG-discuss < plug-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org> wrote: > There are places that are not okay with people masking?

At one time we had one case of Ebola make it to the US and all the health people dealing with it were wearing biosuits. Can you imagine if Ebola got loose in the United States? What kind of comments we would have? Look that guy's wearing a biosuit and he's driving in a car by himself. LMAO On

No, We don't think the disease itself is political, Although it might be kind of cute to imagine little germs all standing in line waiting to vote on their favorite mass killer We think that people have used it for political purposes. If it's my own volition I will happily mask up on

I wonder who these medical professionals are, if the masks are only 2% effective while adding other issues. Why is it that doctors have been wearing them during surgery forever? You you would think someone in the medical profession would have blown the whistle a long time ago at least way before
