Our Pandemic, Its Gaslighter, and Its Munchausener By Proxy

We know the gaslighter who, thankfully, only affects the MAGA base. The MAGA are just as smart as anyone else so one has to say that they willingly allow themselves to be gaslighted. There's nothing that can be done. The person afflicted with Munchausen's Syndrome by Proxy is none other than our esteemed Dr. Anthony Fauci. I remember reacting incredulously when the news reported that Tony was receiving death threats. I couldn't make heads or tails out of it until my Son and I started discussing the provenance of the Novel Coronavirus. The origin fell at the good doctor's doorstep. https://www.newsweek.com/dr-fauci-backed-controversial-wuhan-lab-millions-us-dollars-risky-coronavirus-research-1500741 When you have the gaslighter confusing the heck out of everything and when you add Mr. Bannon to the mix, you soon realize that the "gain-of-function" work promoted by Dr. Fauci was his way of becoming a hero to the U.S.--if not the world--by unleashing a monster wh...

Hair Salons and other Corona Niches

So, what explains the high number of infections in hair salons? If you'd been following my posts, you'd know that it's a combination of two things. One, the salon is kept cold because they are using hair dryers and it cries out for air conditioning. Two, the coronavirus sticks to hair judging by the relative electrostatic properties: hair tends to be more positive while the virus is neutral or negative. Opposites attract and when that hair dryer goes off, the virus goes for a ride to its next victim. I guess you could add the talkative nature of the hairstylists but I'm only guessing at this. Perhaps a summary is in order. When the air is cold, the virus floats better because its density is less than that of cold air--the colder the air, the better it floats. We've encountered another niche that the virus loves: meat packers. These poor workers are really at the mercy of the coronavirus. Meat must be kept cold to keep it from spoiling and this allows coronavirus...

Governor Cuomo Misses the Mark vis-a-vis Meat Packers

In the same breath, the Governor talked about high "density" and meat packers. Sorry, Governor, in a meat packing plant you could have two workers at opposite ends of the building and one of them will catch coronavirus from the other just by virtue of the fact that the entire workplace is a refrigerator and coronaviruses love a dry martini--they don't care so much about the temperature but humidity must be kept to a minimum if the virus is to spread well. Governor Murphy, Governor Cuomo's people are coming over to Jersey, I suspect because there are shorter lines here. But they are not wearing masks; otherwise, I wouldn't give a hoot and, in fact, would welcome them. (come to BJ's or Walmart in North Bergen, count the NY cars and look at the New Yorkers NOT wearing masks.) Keeping social distancing guidelines is hard to do because it is easy to inadvertently get too close. However, the wearing of a mask is easy to spot and fine and there is no excuse--just...
