First car I saw had NY plates with it flashers on. Just got notified that I’ll get swabbed upon arrival in Panama. I’ll the be escorted by a guard to hotel who will remain in lobby to ensure we don’t leave until the test results come back negative. This will be interesting. Be safe. Prayers for you...

Av8ferg Posted March 29, 2020 Share #494 Posted March 29, 2020 We stay at the Miramar Intercontinental along the waterfront., no cabs...we roll in company provided private transportation services. When I left about 10 days ago they only had 9% occupancy at the hotel I bet it is close to 0% now. My question is what do they do with you if you test positive? I brought a tub of Clorox wipes. I’ll spend the first 20 mins sanitizing the entire room and lock myself up for 28 hrs. I need hazardous duty pay!

Zed Head Posted March 29, 2020 Author Share #496 Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) More "not sure who to believe" info. Dr. Fauci has been emphasizing hand-washing, to avoid picking up and depositing the virus on surfaces, where it can be transferred to others. But, the CDC is emphasizing aerosol transfer. Droplets from coughing or sneezing. The CDC actually downplays the surface transfer possibility, pretty hard. Almost saying that washing your hands is a waste of time. A person would have to believe that all of these infected people have been coughed on. Hard to imagine that that would be the case. Fauci is NIH and a known expert. Not sure where the CDC info comes from. More confusion. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/how-covid-spreads.html?CDC_AA_refVal=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cdc.gov%2Fcoronavirus%2F2019-ncov%2Fprepare%2Ftransmission.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Fauci Edited March 29, 2020 by Zed Head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zed Head Posted March 29, 2020 Author Share #498 Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) This is more just bizarreness. Just read it. It's "real". In case it gets deleted. Looks like he's already modified it to sound more sane. Edited March 29, 2020 by Zed Head 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zed Head Posted March 29, 2020 Author Share #499 Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) If you want to browse around the Internet for COVID-19 information the University sites are a good place to start. Especially the ones with medical centers. Almost all of them have a virus page now. Some provide their own insights, some translate the CDC guidance. Some have their own programs going. https://www.ucla.edu/ https://www.ohsu.edu/ https://www.harvard.edu/ http://web.mit.edu/ Edited March 29, 2020 by Zed Head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zed Head Posted March 29, 2020 Author Share #502 Posted March 29, 2020 Just more diversion. That's his M.O. He's worried about Cuomo and needs to try to make him look bad. I haven't watched any of this one, they're all the same now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Av8ferg Posted March 30, 2020 Share #503 Posted March 30, 2020 So, I arrived in Panama this AM (8am). The airport is completely closed to passenger travel. The airport was a ghost town. We only heard one other aircraft on the radio between Tennessee and Panama (a Delta flight over Atlanta). It was so odd and the sights here are odd too. Roads complexly empty. It’s like something from a bad movie. We had our temps taken upon landing and were told we couldn’t leave our hotel room once we check in. I spent 15 mins sanitizing the jet with my gloves on. The other pilot seemed to have a lower concern but was happy with my cleaning job. I find out 1 hr into the flight that his daughter vacated NYC a few days ago to escape the virus lockdown. She’s a waitress in Manhattan and student. I’m like, “you’ve got to be kidding me”, I’m stuck with this guy for about 8 hrs total in this cockpit for the next two flights! I’ve been neurotic about keeping my hands clean but not touching your face for 4 hrs is almost impossible, it’s a subconscious action most of the time. So I’m trapped in this hotel now. Ugh!
