[quote=mooby;1252675]I have the opposite problem, I shave my head at home at least 1-2 times a week, but go to a barber once a month to get a professional beard trim. Gonna be trimming my own shit for a while now.[/quote]

I know this is from the World Health Organization -- hardly the most accurate of sources throughout this pandemic -- but ... if they are right ....

... this is a game changer ...

[B]Coronavirus patients without symptoms aren’t driving the spread of the virus, World Health Organization officials said Monday[/B], casting doubt on concerns by some researchers that the disease could be difficult to contain due to asymptomatic infections.

Some people, particularly young and otherwise healthy individuals, who are infected by the coronavirus never develop symptoms or only develop mild symptoms. Others might not develop symptoms until days after they were actually infected.

Preliminary evidence from the earliest outbreaks indicated that the virus could spread from person-to-person contact, even if the carrier didn’t have symptoms. But WHO officials now say that while asymptomatic spread can occur, it is not the main way it’s being transmitted.

They are now walking back those comments. I'm sorry, i do not trust the WHO.

Re: Why Hasn't Anyone Talked About-A Possible Cancellation?
 

I read some research papers about that awhile ago it is very promising.

Yeah I don't either. I couched my initial post with my hesitance.

Is there a particular reason why you don't trust WHO?

For me it's the massive funding they get from China, and how that seemed to influence what they said about China at the outset of this pandemic. Clearly, they were carrying the water for the Communist Chinese government.

Not that I think the WHO is innocent in this but for the sake of factual information China is waaaay down the list of its funding, USA (prior to Trump ending it) was by far number 1 contributor, Bill Gates was Second, UK third

Oh no don’t mention Bill Gates, that name brings out the wackos in droves

Where did you guys get that information from? I did some research and my findings shows that China isn't even #1 contributor to the WHO's funding.

Edit: in case you want to see where I got the info from:
