Some of us got 'duped' by the passion of flying to give up our previous career. Some of us were able to keep our previous career while adding the aviation career. Compared to my past life, I feel like we barely work in the airlines.

I know plenty of pharmacist, nurses, PAs, NPs and some doctors that fly professional and some still keep their licenses intact. That's why I love the people we work with, they have such varied backgrounds. Some of our older flight attendants that came from Eastern Europe will blow you away with their past life.

We will get some more robust tests soon, but than there is the same problems of supply chain, consumable shortage, manufacturing restriction.

Antibody testing and studies of infection rates of people with antibodies is the critical piece of the puzzle.

"An analysis of the blood of some 3,300 people living in Santa Clara county in early April found that one in every 66 people had been infected....... the researchers estimate that between 48,000 and 82,000 of the county’s roughly 2 million inhabitants were infected with the virus at that time — numbers that contrast sharply with the official case count of some 1,000 people reported in early April, not yet reveiwed"

This is a really inexpensive way to get an incredible amount of information,” says Jayanta Bhattacharya, a health economist at Stanford University in California and a co-author of the study.

The Santa Clara team estimated an IFR for the county of 0.1–0.2%, which would equate to about 100 deaths in 48,000-82,000 infections. As of 10 April, the county's official death count was 50 people. The study's IFR is lower than the IFR used in models by researchers at Imperial College London, which estimated an IFR for Great Britain on the basis of data from China to be 0.9%. In another study, the same group estimated an IFR for China of 0.66%, and a study of deaths on the
Diamond Princess cruise ship estimated an IFR of 0.5%.

I’m not “criticizing” the moderation......I just find it odd that the slightest mention of anything political or controversial will result in removal of posts and possible banning.......yet you can directly taunt and mock people who are facing the worst moments of their professional lives, with impunity.

I’m certainly no snowflake, and I talk smack as well as occasionally troll some folks.......but this guy is on a different level.

We don't (cannot) read every post. If you see something use the report feature.

Not really a “report” kinda guy. I figured it was egregious enough to be obvious, but I’m clearly mistaken. Have a good weekend.
