I'll try this excuse with the wife. Sorry about the smell, it's a Covid side effect dear. :medicated:

Haha there's some research being done on COVID and parosmias actually, but some other causes are like brain tumors, head trauma, etc. the only one I've seen clinically was a patient with a temporal lobe seizure, and they usually describe it as like "smelling burning rubber" before they seize, so it's not really the same tbh.

Oh, GREAT! So now his dog farts are a brain tumor! This is why I stay away from doctors! :scaredtodeath:

If everything smelled like Bacon, would it still be a problem?

You have restored my faith in the medical profession!

Walking the dogs tonight a neighbor questioned why people would be afraid of vaccine shots because they didn’t know what was in them, while they have been eating chicken nuggets and hot dogs for decades. Fair question!

This seems like a reasonable recap of the mask situation:

Here are some data showing that NPIs, including masking and distancing (among others) are having little to no, or even a negative impact, on student case rate.
