thats what people did during plague, get the fuck out of dodge and find some place far away from anyone else and the beaten track and hunker down waiting for God's wrath to pass from the land. villages would close their gates and greet any visitors with lead from 100 paces. while today we have open borders and idiots still travel around like idiots and spread it around the globe. just think what would have happened if we shut down the borders for non essential travel as soon as it became clear how dangerous it was.

So much for your previous post!!!
I think you might have your "facts" wrong.
The Black Death (also known as the Pestilence, the Great Mortality, or the Plague) was the deadliest pandemic recorded in human history. The Black Death resulted in the deaths of up to 75–200 million people in Eurasia and North Africa, peaking in Europe from 1347 to 1351.
One theory of how gunpowder came to Europe is that it made its way along the Silk Road through the Middle East; another is that it was brought to Europe during the Mongol invasion in the first half of the 13th century. English Privy Wardrobe accounts list "ribaldis," a type of cannon, in the 1340s, and siege guns were used by the English at the Siege of Calais (1346–47).
The first mention of firearms in Russia is found in the Sofiiskii vremennik chronicle, where it is stated that during the 1382 defense of Moscow from Tokhtamysh's Golden Horde, Muscovites used firearms called tyufyaki (Russian: ??????), which were of Eastern origin; this word derives from Turkic tüfäk "gun".
Around the late 14th century in Italy, smaller and portable hand-cannons or schioppi were developed, creating in effect the first smoothbore personal firearm. In the late 15th century, the Ottoman Empire used firearms as part of its regular infantry.
The earliest surviving firearm in Europe has been found from Otepää, Estonia and it dates to at least 1396. Around the late 14th century in Europe, smaller and portable hand-held cannons were developed, creating in effect the first smooth-bore personal firearm.
I suspect that most or all villages did not have handheld firearms in the time of the Plague. But, I was not there.

Maybe referring to a different thread?
Yeah, the koolaid comment was not necessary.
Never claimed to be perfect nor am I always able to contain my frustrated snarkiness.
Thanks for the love though.
Keeps me humble.
hehe, i think you might have missed the actual point. but thanks for the history on fire arms. so maybe they were answering with flint headed arrows or thrown rocks, maybe it was bronze spears, or iron swords, maybe roman gladius, the point remains the same, or not?

Lots of interesting viruses out there.
"Severe Pig Diarrhea Syndrome" virus.
"SADS-CoV is thought to have come from bats and has been threatening the livestock industry since 2016 but new research shows humans could be vulnerable to infection"

only if it becomes a recreational sport.
which I hope doesn't happen, unless they go Pro and Monty Python is the producer.
How you can prevent ‘superspreader’ events this fall and winter

- Masks appear to help keep the person wearing the mask from spreading COVID-19 to others by reducing the amount and distance infectious particles can spread through partial filtering of said particles.
- New evidence also suggests masks may also partially protect the wearer, especially from severe infection, by potentially reducing viral inoculation dose and/or face touching.
- Individuals are thought to be best protected when both they and most others in their community wear masks.
- Several natural experiments, observations, and analyses provide increasingly strong evidence for universal mask wearing reducing COVID-19 transmission:
- Infected passengers on the Diamond Princess cruise ship, where widespread masking was not used during an outbreak, had an 18% asymptomatic rate. Infected passengers on the Ernest Shackleton cruise ship, where widespread masking was implemented during an outbreak, had an 81% asymptomatic rate.
- A seafood processing plant in Oregon that implemented universal mask-wearing had a 95% asymptomatic rate among 124 infected workers.
- Two infected hair salon employees in Missouri did not transmit any apparent infections to any of their 139 clients when they, and nearly all of their clients, wore masks.
- In a pediatric hemodialysis unit in Indiana which required universal masking, exposure to one symptomatic COVID-19 patient likely resulted in mostly asymptomatic seroconversion among several other patients (23%) and staff (44%).
- In one academic hospital, implementation of universal mask wearing led to a decrease in new COVID-19 cases among health care workers compared with before implementation.
- Hamsters simulated to wear masks had less severe COVID-19 infection than hamsters who were not simulated to wear masks when exposed to the virus.
- An analysis of several airplane flights with infected passengers (identified after the flights) suggested mass transmission on flights where masks were optional and little-to-no transmission where masks were strictly required throughout the flight.
- A recent meta-analysis suggests mask use may reduce infection rates by nearly 65%.
- A CDC editorial providing further evidence and advocating for universal mask-wearing is here.

How do you simulate wearing a mask?
Asking for a hamster.
