serious question

if you're like 4'2 does that mean you only need 4' of distancing since there's already a natural 2' between you and other adults?

Just now I captured the Worldometers recovered and death numbers:

Deaths:
509,708

Recovered:
5,714,926

That makes 6,224,634 completed cases, about 8% of whom have died.

Damn. That sucks, it is so hard to read that considering there is probably a lot more cases that isn't even recorded.

Well good thing most of them are old people...

Except for the fact that the criteria for “recovery” is convoluted and specific and requires at last check multiple weeks of non symptom reporting meaning that many of the cases in limbo will likely be labeled as recovered if in fact the patients follow up appropriately to be labeled a closed case. Whereas a case resulting in mortality will always be labeled as closed. I’m not trying to belittle the mortality numbers because any mortality is a sad situation but I am saying take the percentages you are spewing with a grain of salt.

Wait...since i'm like a foot taller than the average dude walking around, does this mean i'm less at risk of getting covid? Since the droplets would have a harder time traveling up? I don't breathe the same air as most peasants, us giraffes have thin air up here.

True. Most bars and restaurants that have been closed for 2 months wouldn't charge for drinks to make money. That's just simple business knowledge there.

would imagine so, plus if you sneeze it would travel straight down to the range of the 4' child (or adult in dom's case)

no viruses dont travel through the air like pollen or magical little vapours at nose height. viruses get inside you when you touch your face/mouth/nose/butthole.

ur actually just stupid bro

instead of imagining things, read a book maybe

The coronavirus is thought to spread mainly from person to person. This can happen between people who are in close contact with one another. Droplets that are produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes may land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby, or possibly be inhaled into their lungs.

A person infected with coronavirus — even one with no symptoms — may emit aerosols when they talk or breathe. Aerosols are infectious viral particles that can float or drift around in the air for up to three hours. Another person can breathe in these aerosols and become infected with the coronavirus. This is why everyone should cover their nose and mouth when they go out in public.

Coronavirus can also spread from contact with infected surfaces or objects. For example, a person can get COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touching their own mouth, nose, or possibly their eyes.

The virus may be shed in saliva, semen, and feces; whether it is shed in vaginal fluids isn't known. Kissing can transmit the virus. Transmission of the virus through feces, or during vaginal or anal intercourse or oral sex, appears to be extremely unlikely at this time.
