Slow motion in porn.

Thanks for that, something that I don't believe has been said in MSM?

It has been hinted at but put it this way I don’t wipe down surfaces or sanitise my hands anywhere near as often as I put a mask on or open a window. This is why takeaway food is no risk to you (for COVID, not your heart!) and likely why we saw no spikes in cases during the summer when there were huge outdoor gatherings.

Keep an eye on the Lancet for stuff like this as it comes out

That's a pile of horse-shit!
Their correspondence to the Lancet relates to their "research" (published in March and May) and relates to hospital wards only. They use the caveat " provided that standard cleaning procedures and precautions are enforced". This may be achievable in a hospital (although the number of intra-hospital transmissions could suggest otherwise) or a well-managed workplace, but WON'T happen at a random cash machine where people are not using (or frequently fiddling with) masks in public spaces. They also argue that airborne transmission is not the primary cause - it's got to be coming from fuckin somewhere!!

Could find other papers on the matter OSB? From what I have read and discussed with doctors/microbiologists on this barring someone sneezing or coughing onto the surface followed by one touching it shortly after, growing COVID from the surface is difficult. It supports washing your hands properly (which anyone should be doing anyway), but not sterilising surfaces within an inch of their life or creating volumes of waste from disposable wipes.

What are you doing at the North Pole?

Well i haven't done an in-depth literature review in the past 10 minutes, no!

But here's one for starters ... Air and Environmental Contamination Caused by COVID-19 Patients: a Multi-Center Study - PubMed

And one from our shores (again from hospitals, which contradicts the Italian study) Detection of SARS-CoV-2 within the healthcare environment: a multicentre study conducted during the first wave of the COVID-19 outbreak in England - PubMed
By the way, Allan Bennett from PHE Porton Down (the principal author on that paper) is widely regarded in the biosafety community as being pretty much a national treasure when it comes to infection control!

I'll leave this here, but this is a pretty robust review, in my opinion A Systematic Review of Surface Contamination, Stability, and Disinfection Data on SARS-CoV-2 (Through July 10, 2020) - PubMed
I'll be washing my hands whenever i have touched something i'm not in control of, and i advise others to do the same, especially as the new variant spreads.
It's all about reducing risk, so if you are in a shared workspace, for example, i would recommend reducing the risk to yourself by disinfecting your work area and particularly equipment before you use it. (Cue the knob gags!)
People wearing masks in a disciplined way will obviously have an impact on how much virus they plant on surfaces, but like any control measure that is dependent on people's behaviour, it is very much dependent on how well they implement it. I'd be very wary in an uncontrolled public setting.
Regarding books, even the earliest studies demonstrated that you couldn't recover the virus from paper or similar absorbent materials, so i don't think quarantining books is necessary.

Stay safe - and STAY APART!

Snowed in CV7 for about 20mins. 20 mins too many. Would’ve set if it carried on. Snow can do one.

Supermarket staff that verify your bags before you start shopping then say you have to wait until everything is scanned through for any products that are challenge 18.

Why can't you just verify it at the same time as the bags? Bastards!

People can’t watch American television without adopting their terrible language and tone. Suggests poor education.

Let's be honest, if the city got bombed again it would still be an improvement.

Read that earlier.

What utter bollocks. Can't believe this is their standpoint:

“As noted in pre-application discussions, the current position of the Three Tuns mural, both inside and outside the retail unit, evokes the sense of it being carved from the building material rather than applied, and it is difficult to see how this effect will be replicated.

"We maintain our previously stated view that repositioning in a freestanding location would likely compromise the mural’s significance and could also damage it.”

So there is no real heritage to it at all?

This city is trying its best to evolve and move forward and time after time it's the residents that hold it back.

Interesting. In what sense?

Personally, I feel after WWII the city centre was basically 'thrown up' and is pretty ugly and has never had the upkeep or regeneration it needed.

I feel it has made great strides over the last few years but people still hark on about the 'good old days' or blame Hitler for all of the cities problems.

IMO we need to embrace the changes that are happening and try and let the city evolve.

The City of Culture is a fantastic opportunity m, despite the local cynicism, and I just hope that Covid has not set the city back years again as it was changing and for the better.

People seem to forget how shit it really was in terms of restaurants, bars etc. and although it is far from being a Nottingham, Leeds etc. it has made massive strides from the new restaurant quarter, to Fargo, to Teezers, Escape Rooms, Ziberflat etc.
