Jeez, what a dirty fricking state
“The transmission of hepatitis A is mainly faeco-oral, and the infection control measures those called "Enteric Precautions", or blood and body fluid precautions. These include the wearing of latex gloves when handling faeces, urine, saliva, and blood. Handwashing is essential.“

I’ve been calling for a wall around Livingston Parish for years now. No better time than now.

Can we get a daily thread here with a chart showing new cases, tests, etc.?

You don't shut down for an illness when you already have a vaccine for it.

There is a vaccine for Hep A.

Thinking people don't shut down for any virus, vaccine of not. It accomplishes nothing as our ridiculous folly over the last few months has shown.

What kind of face masks for this?

There's a vaccine for flu and it still kills tens of thousands of people annually.
Should we shut it down every flu season?

Face masks won't work right now, until all the health care workers get them, then they'll start working.
