Nuallie · 31-35, F
@TexChik There’s already people infected

@TexChik Talk about overconfidence- it’s already in the US so let’s see how it develops before making such a claim.

@MissTaken yep it’s here one death in a nursing home .
TexChik · F
@Nuallie yes a couple outside of quarantine ...
MissTaken · 36-40, F
@TexChik So far - wait and see it won’t be the only one

@MissTaken the flu has been killing people all winter
MissTaken · 36-40, F
@TexChik That is true but then COVID-19 isn’t flu and it shouldn’t be assumed it will act in the same way as flu

@TexChik It's already landed in the US. I think you're fairly safe from it here but there's definitely safer places. I mean, if we were to use the entire Earth and take this question super literally, I'd say Antarctica is probably the safest place from it. But I'm not gonna go live at the Vostok station to avoid corona virus.

@MissTaken and this far... its less dangerous . Given our medical community and facilities I’m much more confident than if I lived in China or Egypt
TexChik · F
@BlueMetalChick nope me either

@TexChik The coldest temperature ever recorded at ground level on Earth was measured there, at Vostok, and reached an unfathomable -128 degrees Fahrenheit.

I was in Snag, in the Yukon, one time and it hit -84 F though.

@BlueMetalChick omg ! The coolest I’ve ever been in was at the farm during a blizzard . The wind was howling . The wind chill was -40, ambient was -2 . The snow was so cold it was like sand
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@TexChik The wind makes all the difference, doesn't it? I'd rather have 5 degrees and no wind than 35 degrees with strong wind.
TexChik · F
@BlueMetalChick yes ! The wind gets me cold really quick
