why is laundry door open?
Viral aerosol and surface survival.
Virus lives 3 hours on most surfaces.
Tested at 70 degrees F and 40% humidity
Plastic and steel 3 days
Cardboard 2 days
Asymptomatic people can shed (infect you) for 2 days
Avoid poor ventilation *** (that is why our laundry door is open, and machines are Lysol'd)

The historic downtown in Dade City fills with as many as 35,000 people for this free event celebrating the tangy little fruit grown locally.

On the preceding Thursday and Friday, the kumquat growers open their groves and packing houses for tours.

ALERT
The large Russian-owned company (Soul) that makes those “5-Minute
Crafts” and “Bright Side” videos in your Facebook feed and on
YouTube is also pushing pro-Russia, anti-America propaganda.
They will collect you as followers and
use you at election time.
