Virtually Real

"We each live in our own perceptual universe, no two sensoria are exactly alike, but, because we all live in the same physical universe, we imagine it is a shared whole, its entirety common to us all. But our perceptual worlds are as unique as we each are, each unique perceptual world adding to the creation of the whole of reality."

Left from about 33 hrs ago. Had a scratchy throat this morning w/ a negative test and just now have a positive test.

I went out with various groups, unmasked, throughout the weekend. This was a risk I was willing to take. Still, I'm glad I was wearing a mask in the convention center around folks who did not choose to take that same risk.

I'm gonna go rest now.

@tylerdave Going out with a group anywhere without a mask is taking a risk on other people's lives. You have most likely endangered everyone you encountered on your way home after getting infected and contributed to the spread of COVID. Some of those people could die or be disabled for life.

@offby1 If someone is discouraged from sharing their test results when it is pointed out to them that all thay had to do to protect themselves and others from death is wear a mask it is because they are experiencing the shame of knowing they did the wrong thing. I assure you it gives me no pleasure whatsoever to let people know that their actions could be killing people. All I feel is sadness.

Not sharing their results is not hurting anyone. At this stage it is a billion percent obvious that anyone who attended a group event maskless should get tested.

@glyph @offby1 It is not as simple as that. Any mask is better than no mask https://medicalxpress.com/news/2021-09-mask.html

@glyph @offby1 I use these masks https://www.detmoldmedical.com/detmed/n95-surgical-respirator-masks/w247m9001/ which come in six sizes. I got fit tested the first time I bought them and so I know which size to buy. I read, and watched the video, on that page of the manufacturers instructions on how to correctly put on and take off a mask and on how to do a fit test check, and adjust the mask appropriately each time one puts it on. I have not left my house without wearing one of these since covid started.

It wasn't a lot of effort. And now it is a transparent part of my daily life. To my knowledge I have not had covid yet.
