Thoguh posted:That's right mother fuckers. Zika. She's gotta get tested to see if she caught Zika in the Dominican. we still have zika educational signs up in galveston county because we have mosquitos year round and people that catch zika on on vacation can spread it here easier than other parts of the country with a short mosquito season. she might have killed her baby. jfc Zugzwang posted:Zika is definitely still around; it just isn’t reported on as much. That's because zika is endemic to poorer nations currently. It’s not a US problem. Basically what the cdc et al are trying to do to covid anyway if the person in the op actually has zika they might have to quarantine if yall are in a mosquito prone region edit: i take no pleasure in talking about zika or its effects on fetuses. i saw zika roll over my community and probably caught it myself. i wasn't directly affected because i am not/was not pregnant at the time. it was not fun knowing that if i forgot my mosquito spray i could effectively sentance someone else's fetus to death and i still find stashed bug spray very similar to what's going on now, see the 2026 surgical mask tiktok but sub bug spray call_of_qthulhu has issued a correction as of 17:33 on Mar 25, 2022 |

just remember to make sure your mask/respirator is bagged up before you spray yourself with mosquito repellant because I'm sure that poo poo will wreck your filters

Louisgod posted:I legit have had horrid allergies since last Monday when while mowing my lawn my kids decided it'd be fun to take a bunch of the grass clippings and douse me in them, which I of course had to do to them, which led to all of us having stuffy noses and coughs. took three separate Biden Tests, including swabbing my throat, and each one came back very negative. I'm feeling much better today and have that post-allergy clear nose but with productive coughing. build a corsi cube. I should be getting wrecked right now but I'm not and the only difference this year is that I have a corsi cube going in my home and office when I'm there.

Cloks posted:hey, i'm looking for a very specific mask recommendation The envo mask is great (envomask.com). I spend a lot of my day speaking either on the phone or face to face and the only time I've had a complaint was when both parties were on speakerphone and I was 4 feet from the phone mic. So, normal speaking. Iirc they are running a 40% off sale for March, super worth it. Get a big box of filters. My only complaint is the condensation but my office is very cold all the time.

loading... posted:would it be worth it to think about bringing a portable air purifier to a dental appointment i have in like 2 weeks? (that is if i keep it - i'm in the US) would it even make a difference? i have a corsi cube i'm putting together this weekend but i dunno if it's also worth having a portable solution for instances like the dentist. It would be worth calling ahead to ask. My new dentist's office had air purifiers in the exam room so I felt pretty good about it. Granted there wasn't one in the waiting area but I am in texas :/

Insanite posted:also, think about positioning even if they have purifiers. drat that's brutal. the one i saw was in a corner, like positioned to spray fresh air at where the dentist and you are? they also had signs up everywhere that was trumpeting how dentists know infectious disease better than most general practitioners. that was pretty neat. everyone was in n95+green medical surgicals. leaps and bounds better than my sovcit brainwormed former dentists office that felt it was perfectly professional to allow a hygienist to assault me for where i worked and my generational cohort, the dentist herself joined in later during the exam but didn't hurt me physically. i had to look them up for the first time since 2017 and one of the recent reviews was like "they do good work but i hate hearing that lady go off about vaccines". like goddamn they're still operating and still like that. jfc.

mastershakeman posted:Dentists never dealt with the bullshit about "wear a mask to protect others" and had to immediately address how to protect themselves from covid particles being exhaled from 6 inches in front of them. They probably did have the best in person industry standards due to that. Mine wouldn't take a patient from another household for 15 minutes after a prior patient so that the air had time to cycle through the purifiers, and would only do one patient at a time for the same reason. covid made me realize that the best thing i could see in the world is others protecting themselves, because that means they're not loving insane. side note: today's YLE newsletter highlights ventilation and even mentions improving ventilation and masking up when in close proximity to others. she doesn't normally stray far from the democrat party line so hopefully this means there's a sea change happening call_of_qthulhu has issued a correction as of 13:47 on Mar 30, 2022 |

idk how many of yall might be involved in real estate transactions but MAKE SURE ALL YOUR DEEDS ARE CORRECT BEFORE SIGNING ANYTHING TRIPLE CHECK three of the deeds i've had come across my desk this morning have had major defects that required me to call the loving title company or to find out what the gently caress they were trying to do been doing this for 7 years now and mistakes happen, but never at this pace and never have i had a title agent swear up and down the deeds they filed were correct when they conveyed 100% interest in the same exact property to completely different parties, or duplicated metes and bounds descriptions when they had different surveys attached, weird poo poo title companies are notoriously full of chuds and they are 100% all in office and have been this whole time. they're super proud of not calling out ever too.

GXL posted:You are going in the wrong direction with the lav mic. Getting it to put out sound at a decent level is going to require a preamp, not to mention the problem with positioning the mic to pick up speech through a half mask. Just bite the bullet and get a throat mic. oh well guess i'll just buy a couple back up respirators, throat mic set ups seem to be way more expensive than another respirator

Not even a stupid but marginally understandable "I'm gonna go to eat with them one time" even, but the whole week. if yall have a yard, ask her to quarantine camp outside for a couple weeks when she gets back. if not, ask he if she'd be willing to mask completely and quarantine in a room away from you and yalls kid. it might work if she's willing to quarantine.

tenderjerk posted:A heads up for envo masks, get the ear hook clips if you can. The real sealing power on this comes from the drawstring at the bottom, and with the ear hooks you can clasp in behind your head instead of your ears if you can get away with wearing a wide headband that mitigates the hair wrecking with the standard straps. I also stretch the top halo band to where the bottom of it is under my ponytail, which helps some. My office doesn't have the strictest of dress codes though.
