Now commands need to have at least divisional and then departmental level quarters to discuss changes to the Navy PFA policy before it is addressed at the next command wide safety stand down...
I really hope COs and ISICs are getting involved counseling the unit leaders who are holding these all-hands meetings coming out on social media. Talk about poor headwork.

Whew, what a relief. Guess we only have to worry about that segment of older Americans who aren't in peak physical condition.
So what I hear is "Think about the children". It's all the same. Emotion over logic.

For those who want to get into the weeds, below is a link to a decent summary of the information at hand as of a couple days ago. Not surprisingly, given where we are in the process, and the limitations of the data available, there are some fuzzy areas.

That's awesome! Great job!



I'll take my doctors' professional opinion over your non-medical opinion any day. I'm not tell you or anyone else what to believe, just passing on what I was told.

Right, not my opinion, I'm not making this stuff up. Best case scenario if the mortality rate is the same as the flu...this would be the nightmare we would face if the whole world were anti-vaxers.

You got an medical degree not in your profile? You are a Navy pilot dude. A very young person. Where did you learn about public health? I have heard from two docs that say what HALs did. No they aren't infectious disease specialists, but sometimes the experts get lost down in the weeds. They have blinders on to the real world. Clinicians deal in the real world. Not a lab. Not in front of a computer. Their insight is valuable.

My wife is a physician with a pretty extensive clinical REAL WORLD network, I get more insight than the average bear plus a solid background in Bio. This shit is no joke. I'll update my spouse information in the profile and state my sources next time.

And I'll preemptively correct myself for being so very young. Right back in line, yessir.

I find it interesting that people (physicians and nurses) even at the same hospital have different opinions on where this is going and the conditions at the hospital, I was told that the hospital near me was so overloaded people were in beds in the hallway, messaged a friend who's daughter works at the same hospital and he said she had no idea where that info came from. One doc at the hospital says this will get bad, another says it is not good but it will not be as bad as people are saying.

My conclusion is that we really won't know until it is over, then half will say they were right, and the other half will say nothing.

At this point no one is going to win either side of this argument.

woohoo, my home town never ceases to amaze me. Side note, the lead in the current mayoral race in Baltimore...is the former mayor who was indicted on twelve felony and misdemeanor counts, including perjury, theft, and misconduct. Gotta love it!


Ahh, Baghdad by the Bay. Making my home state proud day in and day out. If it's not murders per capita, it's leading the nation in STD's or growing typhoid in the inner harbor.

Well then. Since I channel my attorney wife (sometimes inadvertently) on legal issues here, I have to give you a pass. Congrats on marrying up. Welcome to the club. Don't fuck it up. You'll be glad when you are 63 and on medical leave from your career.
