The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Friday updated its public COVID-19 guidance to explicitly state that the coronavirus can be transmitted via aerosols — smaller respiratory particles that can float — that are inhaled at a distance greater than six feet from an infected person. The risk is higher while indoors, bringing ventilation practices to the forefront. The new language marks a change from the federal health agency's previous stance that transmission of the virus typically occurs through "close contact, not airborne transmission."

Thank you danforth, for that sharing that tidbit of bullsh... I mean... life saving information.
Now I will proceed on with my life, making no changes at all to any of my daily habits which include wearing a mask only when I absolutely have to and only for the minimum amount of time required, not washing my hands every five minutes and picking my nose on a regular basis... all of which have kept me clear of the plague of the 21st century to date

The "news" is they don't really know WTF they are claiming week to week. Remember when it was transmissible up to 25-30 feet? Then they said stay 6 feet apart as "distancing" then recently said No, ok, 3 feet is okay. Now they backtrack again and notably reverse course almost entirely from "Stay home, stay indoors, only go out if "essential" etc.
Now? Well, being inside is bad. Go outside, go for a walk. If you're sick stay home, duh.
This isn't an "update", this is almost a wholesale reversal on the nonsense they were peddling just weeks ago.

Why would anyone continue to vote Democrat if they were being kept poor and dumb?
Because they like sitting around drinking 40's under the unemployment tree and are fine with not having to work or be prosperous. Its a choice to be less fortunate and the Democrats fuel that desire for their support in elections.
