Can touching a barbell in the gym get you sick with the coronavirus?

ST. LOUIS — Josh Wiese, 45, of St. Louis, was training for ultramarathons before what was likely COVID-19 forced him to quarantine at home in March. Now, he must use an inhaler twice a day and can barely jog two miles. He struggles with his memory and finding the right words.

Stacy Case, 51, of Rochester, Illinois, tested positive for COVID-19 on May 20 and has tested positive nearly every week since then. She needs two negative tests in a row to return to work. Except for fever, Case said her symptoms have never gone away. Normally healthy and active, she continues to suffer with fatigue, congestion and headaches. Just going on a walk causes shortness of breath and chest pain.

John Lincoln, 62, of St. Louis, had just retired as a union carpenter and said he was “in perfect health” when he contracted COVID-19 in April. Lincoln spent over a month in intensive care on a ventilator. He spent another month in a long-term acute care hospital and rehabilitation facility before coming home June 25. Lincoln still needs supplemental oxygen to breathe. His feet and hands are swollen. He doesn’t have the strength to drive his car. His heart rate climbs dangerously if he walks too fast.

For every person who died of COVID-19 complications in the United States, there are more than 10 survivors.

A majority of those who have recovered may have experienced worse hangovers. Countless others, however, are nowhere near their old selves months after being near death in intensive care. And some are still dealing with debilitating problems weeks after getting over the illness at home.

"Likely"? No test? These cases aren't the norm.

First the mask. Then everyone will be "compelled" to get the vaccine. That's where I see this going.

It’s not like one or even both political parties could have the stroke to create this whole thing to “get you “. Lol
Did both parties use it to push agendas? Fuck yes. Shits been going on since before my time. But at the same time you gotta see how America has been so fucking destroyed by both sides. We are talking about a mask? Fighting over a mask? Not kill your mother. Not go and get dropped out of a chopper in Cambodia at the seasoned age of 18.
Just wear a fucking mask

Well, if both parties are using it to push agendas, then just wear a fucking mask. It's not like you have a choice. Vaccines are next.

Testing glitch leads to 90 false-positive COVID-19 tests in Connecticut: 5 details. About 90 people in Connecticut received false-positive COVID-19 tests due to a testing system flaw, according the state's public health department.

You buy oil off the fucking internet and gladly pin yourself year long but are scared of a vaccine? Come on brother.

It's not the shot I'm worried about, although I'm not confident about it either. It's everything else.

Fuck masks. Wearing masks to go into restaurants and bars to take them off when you sit down is a fucking joke. All for show at this point it’s nothing but a political shit show. If Dr.Fauci said sticking a fist up your ass will stop the spread the sheeple would do that too.

He did say fist. Why did you insert your head?

Oh look another moron. How’s does it feel to be a sheep bro? Do you prefer to eat forbs, legumes or grains for breakfast? I hope you’re wearing your mask while responding to me. I’m coughing on my phone currently and it may transmit through to phone to you. Now put that mask on like a good obedient boy.

This thread is fucking awesome

“That's what the new mask studies aimed to address: Whether surgical or fabric masks did a good job of containing viruses.


“One study, published April 6 in the journal Annals of Internal Medicine, found that they did not. That study, led by South Korean researchers, involved asking four patients with COVID-19 to cough into a petri dish 7.8 inches (20 centimeters) away. The patients coughed without masks, while wearing a disposable surgical mask and again wearing a 100% cotton mask.


Neither mask meaningfully decreased the viral load coughed onto the petri dishes.”


Do face masks really reduce coronavirus spread? Experts have mixed answers. | Live Science

I have a friend who is highly trained in chemical and biological warfare. He is one of a handful in the entire US military who has all the certificates and training to do what he does. He laughs at this covid mask stuff. I can’t tell you how many times he talks about how useless all of it is, and how this is all 100% political bullshit now. He calls Faucci a moron daily. It’s pretty damn funny.

He has laminated cards made that state he can’t wear a mask due to medical reasons, can’t ask questions about, and has the exact fine allowed by law for breaking HIPAA laws. It has some US health administration seal or something. Looks very professional but isn’t. He shows that and his military ID wherever he goes and never wears a mask.
