    • stupidity?Bluejam
    • ^ if it's thought to be slightly higher in dementia patients because they forget to wash their hands + touch their face i don't see why not...kingsteven
    • ... or the 'i'm still shaking hands and we can take it on the chin' typeBluejam
    • Syphilis and gonorrhea maybe can work against it! Doctors are looking for test subjects.sted
    • ^lol qbn @ksMrAbominable
    • Hows the chap doing who said he 'definitely' caught it shopping at Tesco?
      Could be another for the list, depending.

    • Slightly heartened to realise I'm not the only one who scans the Mail each day. I hate myself for it, but it's a useful go-to for by-the-minute newsNairn
    • and I know I've said it here before, but imo it's the flipside of the same bullshit coin The Guardian's onNairn
    • "DM style" lolhelloeatbreathedrive
    • I fantasise living in a just society where the DM and the Guardian are high-comedy and the stock market is a larf. if only the world wasn't full of pricks.kingsteven
    • 5Gmonospaced
    • ^ how did i forget about 5G! the answer was in front of (and inside, and all around) my face.kingsteven
    • You forgot drinking alcohol. I read somewhere that is also could potentially kill you with COVID-19utopian
    • Oh no....SEX?dbloc
    • The covids give you the gush https://www.youtube.…kingsteven
    • hmm i thought i read all the early research with SARS relating to HIV research was people with HIV had better responses due to weaken immune systemsdeathboy
    • hence trying to protein shake shit up and fake a weakened immuno response. since so far research seems to state covid19 main strength is turning immune systemsdeathboy
    • I haven't seen any data about HIV infected with it. Be curious to see that.deathboy
    • @db increased chance of infection, increased chance of co-morbidities, low CD4 count (if not receiving treatment) - it's a speculative list though...kingsteven
    • Daily Mail style (ie. broccoli causes cancer) - studies have shown that increased risk is on multiple co-morbidities so it's unlikely that having just one willkingsteven
    • kill you without being life-threateningly severe without the virus.kingsteven
