Should You Be Required To Wear A Coronavirus Mask?

by minimus in

jw

some towns require everyone going outside to wear one.

one massachusetts city requires anyone from 5 up to wear a mask.

some cities require masks and have shut down parks and sports playing while others in a nearby town have no such restrictions.

It keeps me to me and you to you. I'm good with it. Here a scarf is sufficient; it doesn't have to be a mask. Is it 100% protective? No, but it helps...that's been proven.

There is so much to know still about the virus, and antibodies, and our vulnerability.

The VIDEO OF "THE END"

by Wagurl in

this is "return to jehovah video" from this weeks meeting.

the use fear to gain more people back in the truth?

what are your thoughts?

AHA! A friend who left 2-3 years ago texted me today and said he had a text from a JW couple we both have known for many years. They wanted to know how he is coping with these "crazy times." So I see they are probably motivated to contact by this week's meeting.

I told him at least they were thinking about him. A chance to count some time since the cart work is no longer.

Any thoughts on Saturday Nights "Contravirus" version on SNL? I thought it was hilarious.

by RubaDub in

i wish i had taped the snl show since it was the first one "live" since the contravirus thing began but i am sure they will play it again in a month or two.

i know a lot of people were anticipating how they could pull it off but they did, imo, a great job.

it was a real learning experience also for the entire production staff on how to pull this off with most people working from their homes and no live audience.

I thought it was the best they could do. And we need some humor. I thought the zoom meeting was funny too. And and tons greeting “hey cool cats and kittens!”

Find the Beatles Songs in the Picture

by Simon in

some light entertainment ... there are apparently 39 beatles songs hidden in the picture, but depending on how to interpret some of them you may come up with more.. please post one each, to give everyone a go, and describe where the song is in the picture (so it's not just coming up with a list of beatles songs).

also, check for existing answers - i'll post summaries to show the ones already identified.. .

Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Status Update Thread

by Simon in

jw
friends

this topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.

latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.

the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.

waves to 3rdgen! Been thinking about you!

I was raised also without vaccines. Chiropractor JW was my "physician." I had asthma, the bad measles, mumps, and chicken pox as an adult. No polio thank goodness.

My first vaccine was small pox when we went to Central America as need greaters. Of course we got the shots then!

I understand caution, and respect science, especially today.

On another note, I am grateful to California Governor Newsom who was first to implement the safer at home. The numbers reflect this action. I'm still working, but go straight home after work. The recommendation is to not go out to the markets or whatever unless you absolutely need to, for two weeks. Certain cities are requiring face coverings in public, or be refused service. We're okay with it. We want to stop the spread.

May all stay safe and well.
