Okay, this is #Lemming territory:

First, read this quote from the freaking President of Notre Dame University - part of the "invincibility" behavior:

(more like #GroupNoThink)

Now, on Wednesday, #HopeHicks tested negative as she flew with Trump on AF1. But that night, she felt lousy. And on *THE NEXT MORNING*, she tested *POSITIVE*

How is that possible?

Oh...the virus has to rise to a detectable level - but you could be contagious before that.
Hmmm
REPEAT:

if you have 1 virus particle, the tests probably can& #39;t detect that.

10 particles?
100 particles?
1000 particles?
Dunno. But:

The CONTAGIOUS level

is LESS THAN

the DETECTION level.

#ScienceMatters

THAT is why this spreads. Viral implies rapid, exponential growth.
Next is my *reasoned guessing*, but

If you get the virus,
but your immune system fights it
and you don& #39;t get symptoms,
it probably never got "out of control"

But, if you do get symptoms,
*maybe it did get out of control*

Regardless
non-symptomatic people still spread the virus
So, the Pres of a prestigious university sez "we were told it was safe to remove our masks."

Uh, #Science?

Does *ANYONE* know everything about COVID?
Nope.

So if you make mistakes, *ERR ON THE SIDE OF CAUTION*.

It isn& #39;t just your life. It could be your grandmother& #39;s funeral.
Okay, I& #39;m wrapping this thread up.

But the whole "Anti-expert" thing is just stupid.

People wanted to have a Beer with "W". But he eschewed expertise ("Heckuva job, Brownie")

But if I design an airplane, are you gonna fly in it?
(I& #39;m only a Mechanical Engineer, not Aero)
So - Universities. & presidents of them.

The *FIRST* thing you learn when you strive to become educated is this:

You learn that you don& #39;t know that much, and that there is so much to learn.

it is less easy/simple to say things ABSOLUTELY, in black-and-white language.

ND?
People on the "right" claim that Universities "indoctrinate" people to be lefties

No. conservatives have become black-and-white thinkers, and critical thought requires shades-of-gray

people on the right rejecting science, expertise, critical thought - pushes educated ppl left.
Anyway,

Nobody flies airplanes that aren& #39;t FAA regulated.

Because they don& #39;t want to die.

Well, guess what? As we figure out COVID19, wear a damn mask!

Or watch your President go down for not wearing one.
