Someone needs to Google the word asymptomatic. Derppp.. those Karens...showed them! 

You got me, I’m retarded, never knew what asymptomatic meant. Unless you’re coughing or sneezing on surfaces or people you aren’t spreading it if you’re social distancing. Everyone now realizes how it spreads and aren’t acting like we used to.

What is crazy? Unless someone sneezes in your mouth directly, you are fine outdoors. It’s literally the safest place possible.
I’m not wearing a mask unless mandatory. Went to Costco the other day and 80% of people had one, all the Karen’s were definitely judging me for not having one. I don’t currently have it and I’m not coughing or sneezing so not going to spread it. From the comments on here and twitter, the government has done a horrible job explaining to people how this spreads.

Dude how dumb are you?

You said in your last sentence the government has done a terrible job of explaining how this spreads (because we truly don’t know 100%), and yet you’re posting about going to the beach, going to the grocery store without masks, and saying how jogging outside is the safest thing you can do. 
You have no idea what you’re talking about.

We spent most of yesterday outside because it was so nice. A nearby neighborhood has a brewery and recently started allowing open containers in their downtown area so we grabbed a beer to go and just walked around outside. LOTS of people outside. Lots of groups congregating. Very little social distancing. Almost zero masks.

And again, it’s people like that who are going to make this dumbass social distancing/quarantine state last even longer.

I knew your dumbass would respond. There are multiple studies on how it spreads and being outside is the safest. If you’d like to refute it with facts I’ll be waiting. No clue how you think they don’t know how it spreads... But if it were up to you we’d stay home forever

Glad I could help. You just said the government has done a bad job explaining. Let me know if you need anything else.

Unless you’re coughing or sneezing....

Again, you're retarded.  Coughing and sneezing are symptoms...It could be something else, or nothing, but that's how this spreads.  "Asymptomatic" means you don't know you have it but can still spread it.  Hence the rec for masks.

I can't believe I actually have to say this: You wear a mask because you can't predict an uncontrolled cough or sneeze.  And you can't predict that because you don't know you're sick until after infecting people for a week.

Ok, back to the actual topic......the county I live in has 145 cases.....there were 115 4 weeks ago.  30 cases in a month and people want to continue fear mongering?

It spreads through droplets. I wasn’t saying contagious or not. Another person who doesn’t know how it spreads. From the WHO (aka China): 

How does COVID-19 spread?

 

People can catch COVID-19 from others who have the virus. The disease spreads primarily from person to person through small droplets from the nose or mouth, which are expelled when a person with COVID-19 coughs, sneezes, or speaks. These droplets are relatively heavy, do not travel far and quickly sink to the ground.

Good lord you just proved what a dumbass you are.

I know how it spreads.  Your links verify what I just said.  What they don't prove is that you aren't stupid.

Yeah, moron, that's why they recommend we wear masks.

It's not airborne for long outside, but long enough to infect people.  If you need me to explain this slower I'm happy to.

Gee might the lowered rate be because of the precautions being taken?

Not talking to anyone, not coughing, not sneezing = not spreading it. Thanks!

County of 400k that’s pretty urban has less than 500 cases and 6 deaths. Most of which are nursing homes and 1 church. I’d say we’re doing ok

The level of not giving a shit as the weather turns is rising.

A few bars on my street were open yesterday serving to go drinks out of the front door. Let’s ditch the open container law when this is all said and done!

OK, way to walk back your dumbassery.

And apparently you're still struggling to understand what "asymptomatic" means.

You do realize that your sparsely-populated county in western Ohio is not representative of the entire world, right?

I think that NYC pic is old. Not a single mask. Also cops are patrolling parks heavily.

This was from my run yesterday. This park is usually slammed on a nice Saturday.
