I’m all for using masks and wish more people would and less people would wear them as chin diapers. That out of the way, do we have any data on the rate of transmission for people wearing masks as they are today (simple cloth masks or whatever they have on) vs other means of catching COVID?

Pro tip. If following something online makes you feel nauseous then don’t follow it.

Agreed. The Moderna and Pfizer vaccines have been shown to be highly effective and will likely help in reducing transmission as well. We can’t say for sure since it hasn’t been studied but just by reducing the viral load it has to reduce transmission some. Combined with the effectiveness of the vaccines I am hopeful.

Fidelity didnt

How about just don’t use Robinhood and use an established company for your brokerage account? Fidelity offers free trades, has a great mobile app, and the customer service is fantastic. Oh and they haven’t experience the myriad of issues Robinhood has and they didn’t crater to a hedge fund they sell order flow to and

The CDC continues to advise the general public to not buy N95s or surgical masks, because they are needed for healthcare workers.

These hedge funds are in no way, shape, or form too big to fail. This is far different from the TBTF banks of the 2008 financial crisis. I do think they should have been able to fail in 2008 though, or at the very least, when propped up to prevent them from failing they should have been broken up to avoid this

Lots of people.

The biggest problem with student debt forgiveness, in my opinion, is it does absolutely nothing to address the cost of higher education and what caused this in the first place.

Definitely the way to go with things like treadmills. You can get a commercial quality one for dirt cheap used. Well, at least pre covid you could. Not sure what that market is like these days.

I feel like there’s a hole here when it comes to air bikes since they are some of the most popular home cardio pieces. You have ones like the Assault bike and Rogue Echo, which are soul destroyers, mostly used for HIIT. Then you have the Concept2 that uses the same mechanism as the rower but you can adjust the damper

I mean, that is a good story so he wasn’t totally wrong 

Probably not nearly the amount that sustained 0% interest rates and the money printer going brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr does

Been working out in a home gym for years now and never miss the mirrors. Filming my sets has been far more valuable. Get a cheap tripod for your phone and take some video if you feel like you need to. I don’t do it for everything, and I think there is probably an over emphasis on “perfect” form these days, but it can

This isn’t America

That Trader Joe’s stir fry is legit, I love that stuff

It works for me. Wild.

You’ll still get the people claiming these guidelines don’t work and point to our incredibly obese population as evidence. However, if these people actually followed the guidelines we wouldn’t have so many obese people.

The case rate for Bell’s palsy in general was in line with the rate of people who got it who were in the trial. Same with appendicitis, which was spread as more misinformation. When you have a trial of this size you are going to have people with seemingly rare conditions pop up because of the probability of them

Yeah I mean, heart disease and cancer kill tons of Americans each year and both can be reduced by being healthier with your diet and getting some exercise in. A good diet and exercise can’t prevent those things 100% but they are demonstratively helpful in lowering your chances. Just like being a healthy weight, not
