Dear Hobbyists,
How likely are you not hobby during the COVID scare?
How likely are you to continue to hobby?
Would you only see providers you've seen before?
Would you see a new provider?
Just had by Friday appointment message me on P411. She pre-books (no deposits) was coming down from Dallas. She said everyone was cancelling on her because of the virus so she wasn't making the trip. So I'm done going forward.
I'm a clean freak and a germaphobe. I keep my place exceptionally clean and disinfect things daily. I'm also not a high volume provider so I'm not seeing multiple people a day and I'm pretty much a home body. I don't travel, I don't fly and I don't really go out to large events. I have no kids(love them) but they are booger carriers and I always try to have my clients freshly shower and clean before all appointments. I have fresh towels, wash rags and soap for them to use. Just like other viruses and cold wash your hands, keep them out of your mouth and if you are feeling under the weather, have travelled somewhere or been around someone who is sick... stay home and away from people. I'm not scared seeing clients and most of us providers are on top of hygiene and cleanliness.. I would be worried about catching it from your local busy grocery store than with one on one contact here and there.
Yup, providers are notoriously clean, some more than others. I'm the person who wipes down all the faucets, sinks, door knobs and bathtub with bleach every day. Clients have commented that it smells like bleach cleaner in my incall and I guess that's coming in handy now. While everyone should be concerned and taking precautions, picking up your kid from daycare, your gym and going to HEB for you Dorito's run may make you more susceptible than seeing a provider.
Also, very generally speaking, many of us like myself do not have kids, or spouses, and work from home or a safe incall. We can also be a bit self-isolating naturally so our exposure in the world may be much lower. Personally, I'm grateful to be able to work in a relatively safe environment right now though some hardships may be coming. People scrogged their way through WW2 and the HIV pandemic, they're gonna keep on a' scroggin' even if we have to change up some things for a while.
Relatively new but from what I have seen so far it would not deter me from 1 on 1. I have a low exposure risk, work from home, only go out when necessary and when I do I hate crowds anyway so I usually go to 24 hr markets in the middle of the night. Single, I do have kids but they are teens so they understand the implications.
Now I would not set foot in a strip club right now. I feel for those who have to work them to make ends meet with this going around. Don't frequent them often but just way too many variables there. That really goes for any club right now. Just not worth the risk.
Most people who have accepted higher risks of getting STDs probably wont be bothered by this. Unless your over 60, in most cases it isn't too bad.
But the real risk here is to providers income. People have lost a LOT of money in the market the last couple weeks. Also the price of oil unsustainably low for what we are producing...not just due to coronavirus but the Russia/OPEC spat as well.
It's only matter if time before the layoffs start.
We're in a recession, you just dont realize it yet. So I'd suggest everyone who relies on disposable income to plan accordingly.
I have always stood by the stance that having fun with girls on here and on places like eccie and p411 is a lot safer than rolling the dice on a drunk uneducated hookup from a rando at the bar but that only concerns STDs.
Personally, I will not be adjusting my habits unless there is a confirmed outbreak of more than 60 people in this city or in surrounding cities (Dallas, San Antonio, Houston).
Now is not the time to buy out your grocery store's stock of toilet paper. But I think now is the time to save your money and plan financially, if you know what I mean.
Also if a lady gets it and fully recovers (no longer contagious), I would be 100% see her as this virus doesn't kill a lot of people, either.
Hmmm.
Genital warts...i prefer, "ribbed for her pleasure".
Gonnareah... I prefer, "additional lube"
Herpes... Genital grafitti
Aids... It's been a good life
A bad flu...fuck this shit!! Y'all **** is nasty!!!
I'm such a germaphobe - I won't shake hands with people. My sister won't shake hands but she'll do a fist bump. Damn, I'm glad I'm retired.
I’m a glass half full kind of guy, so instead of worrying about a 3% mortality rate, I prefer to think of a 97% survival rate. I’m am well over 60, but I have no plans to quit hobbying, at least with those women who will see me.
Like Brit said above you are far more likely to get it going out to eat, at a busy grocery store, or movie theater than with 1-1 contact here and there. Especially because the hygiene and cleanliness can all be controlled by the 2 individuals involved. You can't do that in a huge crowded place swarming with people.
The mortality rate will go down (for everyone, young & elderly both). Yes it's way higher than the "flu" even though the flu absolutely trounces on this little pesky virus in sheer numbers.
I still expect that we could see this virus go down into the .1% to.75% death rate overall once we have full accounting and testing of infected individuals. Take right now, today.
The US sits at now 2.9% down from nearly 6% just a week ago roughly. BUT let's just say you add another "measly" 5000 reported cases and another 15 deaths.
HYPOTHETICALLY, if that happened, which is very plausible, in fact I expect it to be more drastic, the outlook for the US *at that point* (if this happened) would be 6215 total cases, 51 deaths = 51 / 6215 = .8% or a .0082 death rate.
You see? The issue is that number of infected are not reported properly, unknown, passed to people while they had it and now they're fine, thought it was a "regular cold", etc.... I just really want people to realize that the death rates are totally skewed right now. They will undoubtedly go down dramatically as time goes on.
Refer to my Houston article if you like:
Coronavirus Statistics and Mortality Rates
All I know is there is no more fucking toilet paper at the grocery stores now.
I don't plan to make any changes, but I am less likely to see a travelling provider since they might see more people on a trip here.
As for the flu trouncing on COVAD-19 in sheer numbers, I think it is too early to make that determination. Consider that there are vaccines for the flu and there are antiviral medications that can be used to treat it. Antivirals are being tested on COVAD-19, but it's too early for results, and there isn't a vaccine.
