Trauma surgeons stand for intensive 10 hour procedures without their masks slipping below their noses. Everyone should be able to make it through the grocery store.

New paper in Lancet is what I’ve been trying to say. Focus more on ventilation. Esp in prep for winter indoors. Six feet isn’t adequate where ventilation isn’t. Businesses need to guarantee indoor air quality. Cities need to help, enforce, and facilitate. thelancet.com/journals/lanre…

Nationally there’s no “second wave.” There’s one long wave. We’ve been in a plateau of around 20,000 cases and 1,000 deaths a day, largely among minority and vulnerable populations. Reopening will cause spikes, but calling them a second wave denies the reality of what’s going on.

This shows the location data of phones that were on a Florida beach during Spring Break. It then shows where those phones traveled.
First thing you should note is the importance of social distancing. The second is how much data your phone gives off.

When I hear men worshipping guns and talking about how there’s nothing that will stop them from defending their family, my mind goes to Naaman in the Bible. Do you remember Naaman? He was a great military leader, and he also had leprosy.

When I lived in Fredericksburg, we threw a ton of great shows at a (now defunct) spot called the Wounded Bookshop. It had the sort of small town charm that you just can't replicate in a big city.
