I couldn't find an answer on google whether skin cancer can start from the surface of the skin. I know cancer can generally start almost anywhere though.
Edit - generally wherever there is cell division I imagine.

Whoops! DO, did I miss the post where you give references to document the current theory?
5G effects killing single-cell life? Hard to believe, but I dunno. Like DO, I'll take Gordon's word. A link or two would sure be great. The news is all over both sides, as far as I can tell.
My latest horror moment came from the recent reports of research suggesting an imminent collapse of all life in the ocean. I couldn't find the story I saw a few days earlier, but here's a Guardian story on the subject. The now-missing story commented that recent research in the field shows greater acidification and higher temperatures than predicted by rosier environmental models, and accelerating fast enough to trigger the collapse within a decade.

Seems I saw stories recently about bird populations declining in Britain, like 60% in a few years (cannot recall exact percent). Amphibians dying everywhere. Invasive plant species invading as suitable habitats change.
Did we really go and break the whole doggone world? Is Humpty-Dumpty so shattered that all the Kings' horses and all the Queens' men cannot set it to rights? To me, it looks that way more and more. If that's the case, we better not forget that the pandemic is only one of an (apparently) increasing number of earth-shattering problems. That is, if we can first end the pandemic.

I have been Fielding multiple texts from friends and family asking me if it's true (I am honored to be a de facto myth debunker)
I was aware of these stories so assumed that was what Gordon was discussing when he mentioned 5g health concerns. This is a Covid thread after all
Perhaps I got a few conversations crossed.

I heard the 5g theory.
Idk what to say except. The coronavirus spreaded very quickly to islands like papua new guinea fiji island Caribbean islands. I dont see a 5g on those islands. But people fly around. To add more.
Some think a portion of the current vaccines may be infected. Which could explain so many confirmed single infections across the world. Live virus nasal vaccine was introduced in june 2003. Since the virus is live, it would be contagious until your body destroys it

No, I'm not, I don't see how that could be possible. But it is at least remotely possible that 5G waves might make transmission and infection of the virus (when airborne) a bit more efficient -not a shred of evidence from testing but at least its a hypothesis that cannot be instantly dismissed without someone thinking about it and perhaps studying it.

Both federal facilities were specifically designated as NON-Covid-19 facilities and only accepting tested-negative patients. That changed recently, as they were no help with the actual overflow. The local situation has leveled off to some extent, and anyone who has any hope of survival outside the hospitals is still not being admitted, with no routine procedures, or outpatient treatment, or home quarantine, instead.
Also, last week but not necessarily continuing now (not sure if they're still doing this) patients who "died" (like heart attacks, strokes, etc) and could not be immediately resuscitated on site, rather than being brought in to hospitals during active CPR/ventilation/life support (standard care), were being called dead in the field and taken to a morgue instead.
The supplementals you mention were also very late to the surge - had they accepted Covid patients from their first day operational, they would have many more patients now. It's logistics. That was a critical couple of weeks they didn't admit covids.

Would you even like the world if everyone was like you? I don't think our society works with everyone being the same, everyone being afraid to spend any money. I'm not criticizing you or your habits, though they could be a little out of moderation. Just saying, you want people to be like you, but the world freezes when people are. I'm not sure how this can be dealt with.Quote: AZDuffmanLearn that you have to be better prepared. The Depression generation prepped. They kept money for an emergency, and their pantries were full. They lived fairly frugal. They reused things and knew how to get by.
Some of the Baby Boomers saw this and emulated parts of it. They saw recessions every few years. They knew to "save up" if a known bad event like a strike was on the horizon. But over the years they drifted away from the good habits.
Those born after 1977 or so never saw real bad times, never saw a really bad recession. "The Great Recession" was not that at all compared to 1982, where 100 year old industries just collapsed. There was not 20% prime rates and 15% inflation.
I have been near broke but even then I always had some emergency money to bail me out. After a brush with BK I lived like a monk for years to get out of debt and get saved up. I still live like half a monk, keeping a modest home and car. The kids on some pods I worked on, I could not believe how they spent money. It came up once and a girl told me the general attitude was "if you are deep in student loan debt you live for today since it will be forever before you get ahead."
Those people had better have learned as I am sure she was among that group that could not handle a $400 emergency. Hopefully the masses will now start copy canning at the least, and putting $15 a week aside. In 3-4 years they will be in shape to last if this kind of thing happens again.
But alas, they will not learn. A few will of course. The rest will be buying lottery tickets instead of putting emergency funds aside and eating takeaway instead of learning to make their food dollar last.

To be like me? In what way?
I grew up lower middle class. I always tried to save for a rainy day but instead of a rainy day I got a hurricane that left me on the edge of bankruptcy. Had to move back in with folks and pay off debt over several years. Since then I am hyper-prepped. I was told that my attitude towards going back into debt is that of a recovering heroin addict. (Told that by a recovering opiate addict!)
So I would want more people to be prepped. To be more careful with money. To buy used instead of taking out 6+ year loans on new cars. To not be on the edge. If we had more of that we would have less mile-long lines at the food bank less than a month into the crisis.
