TheDoyler23 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 My wife stocked up on meat from Costco a couple weeks ago and I, of course, condescended that we weren't going to have shortages and that panic buying is bad for everyone. Damn, I hate when she's right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To demand that the hospital sell it to the Feds, instead. (You know, the National Stockpile that isn't for the states. But Trump can hand it out to other countries. Brobably in return for investigations into Biden.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Do Itch Big Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) Does anyone actually have Georgia daily deaths and infection data. I’m curious to see it. I would go on worldometer but it doesn’t have state data only US. Maybe I’m not looking hard enough. nvm went to Georgia website and it’s not as bad as I thought.

I hope cooking meat kills the virus, but not sure about heat in general. It can definitely survive in hot places and hot weather.

It can definitely survive in hot places and hot weather. I was implying heat from cooking. As for hot surfaces the virus gets killed quicker, like in hours instead of days in moist and colder temps.

Even if you ate food raw I'd think you'd probably still have little chance of catching it. My understanding is that it has to enter through the respiratory tract, not gastrointestinal (though from the mouth some of it could probably get into the trachea). Stomach acid would probably also kill it. That said, yeah...cooking food also probably kills it, unless it's very low heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except when you lift the raw meat up to your mouth and your nose automatically takes a sniff of it.... bam you are infected... lol Or, you wipe your nose and your infected hands get you the virus.
