^^^^^^^^^ Folks will be fucking with facial masks on until most of the population are inoculated with vaccines and antibodies and therapeutics become widely available at reasonable costs. SP's must shower after each encounter. Sheets need to be washed after each client (in-call services). We'll...

Another thing to worry about--"bad apples" at the border crossings. I figure that filing complaints would be futile as those complaints would fall into a black-hole. Today (12 May 2020), the CBC reported: https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/cbsa-misconduct-tunney-1.5560993 "Documents obtained...

True. As many things in life, the 80/20 "rule" seems to apply to the SARS-CoV-2 virus too -- 80% of people who are infected will self-resolve. The other 20% will need hospitalization, and of that 20% a fraction will become severely ill and some of those who become severely ill end up dying. At...

I wonder if parents in Quebec will allow their children to return to schools later this month. OMG. Is Deputy Premier Geneviève Guilbault for real. What has been happening in NY disprove what this lady said. I hope she's right but . . . ...

Let's hope our beloved Montreal's first phase of reopening in two weeks goes well. But hospitals' could become overwhelmed. Let's hope for the best. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/montreal-hospitals-space-covid-19-1.5558118 "Quebec has two weeks to clear a backlog of COVID-19...

Phew. I was afraid Merb was no longer accessible from the States during the transition. Welcome back Merb. Nice changes. Long live Merb :). Merb is a nice distraction from the Covid-19 HELL!

If an effective vaccine is invented before November 3, 2020 (even if that occurred outside America), which most experts say is highly unlikely, trump will proclaim that he discovered it and claim all credit for it. I still doubt biden can beat trump.

Maybe a little good news for some folks who have credit card insurance and have lost their job because of the Covid-19 pandemic. They might get some relief from their credit card issuers. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/credit-car-balance-protector-insurance-refunds-canada-1.5548346...

How much bleach should I use? Which type of needles work best? Should I inject it in my arm or buttock? OMG. We in America are all going to die. :Cry: NY Time is reporting today: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/23/us/politics/coronavirus-trump.html?action=click&module=Spotlight&pgtype=Homepage...

I hear you Hungry, and I had to do the same. I was poor and had to eat shit to get to where I am. I think it will take a long time for consumers to feel safe before they will return en mass to businesses that provide personal services like hairdressers, nail salons, dentists, massage...

True many of them don't pay income taxes but they pay consumption taxes (about 15%), pay rent, pay for school books and tuition, and some of them support their children or other family members. Not all SPs make more money than most of their clients on an annual basis, plus they receive no sick...

I hope Canada too will provide some financial assistance to its citizens who happen to be sex workers. Yep. They will use their firearms to kill the coronavirus. :doh::noidea: I have a bad feeling about that. Trigger happy jerks could set off another crisis. So, what they are going to shoot...

^^^^^^ These protesters could provide us with early indications of what could happen as society opens later, hopefully in stages. If these protesters get sick in the next two weeks, we will get some confirmation of what our level-headed leaders have been warning against and projecting...

EB. You are not entirely correct. I know people who are independent contractors who have no health insurance because they cannot afford to pay the premiums, even through Obama Care. I have a buddy who works multiple jobs as an independent contractor--and drives Uber now and then--who does not...

Yep, lots of Americans who were Covid 19 and didn't have healthcare insurance would likely be forced into bankruptcy. I imagine one day in an ICU for a Covid 19 patient in most private hospitals in the States exceed US$100,000.
