Probably a bigger social faux pas to sneeze In someone’s house than to fart

have you tried to buy an N-95 mask? If you have a source, let me know.allwhitemeat wrote: ↑Sun Mar 22, 2020 4:44 amThe only thing to do is make everyone wear n95 masks if you have them. It's a respiratory virus. Everyone wear a mask. Sanitize their hands when before they get in the car. And spray Lysol on all surfaces they came into contaxt with until saturated. Has to stay wet for at least 60 seconds allow to air dry. Gloves are useless, you don't shed through your hands. Your hands are just the tools you use to interact with the world, so you spread the germs using them. Think of it like having greasy hands. Make them clean the greaseoff their hands before they spread it everywhere.
Crack the windows so you don't sit there rebreathing everyone's air but don't roll it all the way down so it's potentially forcefully blowing air around the edges of the mask.
If you are REALLY paranoid wrap your seats in old sheets and wash them daily in hot water. But really, the breathing masks are all you can do. If anyone is sick, it will stay within their mask. You can still absorb it through your eyes (mucus membrane) so the idea is to trap the airborne particulate before it gets in the air.
Personally, I'd make everyone wear a mask and then put a pillow case over their head. Black pillowcases. You'll get the social distancing you want from the rest of the public, maybe not the police. But they'll understand once you explain
believe me, I have looked into how to DIY. But, no, surprisingly I don't have sewing machine. will a welder or miter saw work?allwhitemeat wrote: ↑Sun Mar 22, 2020 6:58 pm I have a three pack I bought last year when I was going to clean the garage. Lots of mice and their feces and urine dust can give you a lethal flu like illness.
Saving those, just in case. There's only 3 of us here. Me and my two kids.
Got a sewing machine? Some thick pure cotton fabric and elastic string. Make some. Doctors offices in our area are requesting them and giving links to sewing patterns and instructions. Basically it's just a double layer of thick cotton, 4x7. Elastic straps sewn in and then 3 crimps along the edge to help it stay snug.
RD has nothing better to do. Maybe if you ask him nicely...Flumper wrote: ↑Sun Mar 22, 2020 7:13 pmbelieve me, I have looked into how to DIY.

My brother had one of those. Seats in back were ok on good roads as pain on rough ones. Took it to the drive in once parked backwards had a cooler of beer. Don't remember the movie.
All crews drove themselves this morning except the biggest one (which is the one I'm most worried about). That other bigger crew was rained out, so I get a one day reprieve and some more heads to put toward solving this.
I've been seeing employers send home any employee with a 99 degree temp and above, you also have to clean the thermometer between foreheads. Bandana can't hurt. If someone sneezes I think you are allowed to run the over with a pickup truck. Hope this helps.Flumper wrote: ↑Mon Mar 23, 2020 5:23 pm so............... talking to some people that know a thing or two (I hope), they have told me that if I get an instant read thermometer (forehead type) and check each person that travels in a vehicle to make sure they don't have a temperature (problem is, no one can tell me what the definition of a problem temperature is). And, then as a backup precaution they told me to have them wear a mask (which is impossible because there are none). So they told me to have them wear a bandana or something over their face.
i have literally read through 15 federal web page sites on temperature checks and not a fucking one of them tells what temperature that people are screened for. they have been screening people at airports with those thermometers for months now. WHAT FUCKING TEMP are you looking for? Holy shit.CaptQuint wrote: ↑Mon Mar 23, 2020 5:30 pmI've been seeing employers send home any employee with a 99 degree temp and above, you also have to clean the thermometer between foreheads.

since i get to make up my own rules, i think i'll wait and see how good the employee is vs what their temperature is.
Might wind up with a new employee of the month.
Generally, most doctors are not too concerned with a heightened core temperature until it gets over 38°C or 100.4°F. "Normal" body temp is 37°C or 98.6°F. However, this may be wrong, and core temperatures have been dropping, with the average now about 36.6°C or 97.9°F.Flumper wrote: ↑Mon Mar 23, 2020 5:34 pm i have literally read through 15 federal web page sites on temperature checks and not a fucking one of them tells what temperature that people are screened for. they have been screening people at airports with those thermometers for months now.

Is 99 degrees a good number to use?
it doesn't seem to matter. there are no thermometers to be found anywhere. even on amazon the quickest delivery is in May. When we will either be dead or laughing about all of this hysteria.QillerDaemon wrote: ↑Mon Mar 23, 2020 7:11 pmGenerally, most doctors are not too concerned with a heightened core temperature until it gets over 38°C or 100.4°F.

Due to my dead thyroid, I run even colder, usually down to 97.4°F, and I can whine like a woman about how chilly the office is. Turns my nipples into diamond cutters.
Both Lysol and Clorox disinfecting wipes are known to kill the SARS virus, and COVID-19 is also known as SARS-CoV-2, so those wipes are also considered to be effective against the coronavirus. You -could- just use a regular mouth thermometer and wipe it down for a full minute before reusing it another person. Caution: these wipes taste like ass! Nobody's going to like it. But if that's all you have....
What you do is weigh yourself while holding them in your arms, then weigh yourself alone. The difference in weights is how much they weigh.Flumper wrote: ↑Mon Mar 23, 2020 5:34 pmi have literally read through 15 federal web page sites on temperature checks and not a fucking one of them tells what temperature that people are screened for. they have been screening people at airports with those thermometers for months now.

I've heard anything 100°F or higher is a concern too. 97-99°F was given as normal range. I knew it fluctuated but I thought "Normal" was a much smaller window. Crazy that it is actually dropping in Humans that significantly.QillerDaemon wrote: ↑Mon Mar 23, 2020 7:11 pmGenerally, most doctors are not too concerned with a heightened core temperature until it gets over 38°C or 100.4°F.
