Anyone still out and about?

Anyone still seeing providers? Or has the flu scared you away?

No
Yes, I am freaking out. I want to see the paper proof of you are clear of corona free.

I'm taking a few weeks off from this world. Self-isolating.

If all of this is just an issue of people being very paranoid, then that's fine.

I'd rather be safe than sorry. And of course, as soon as I make this very personal decision for myself, the phone starts to ring.

Murphy's Law and all.

Hookers are the only ones not worried about what's going on, the ones that show concern are still trying to pick up tricks which makes no sense, I'm not too worried but I'm not sucking strangers cocks either.

In defense of my fellow sex workers, many (if not most) aren't able to not stop working for a period of time. Sex work, in general, has been slower for many since the FOSTA, etc., mess.

Heck, it's very difficult for me but have a feeling that a lot more people have this virus than we know. I mean, there hasn't been any testing done or very little, right?

And being in that 60 something group, feel that it's prudent to stay put for the next few weeks and just see what transpires.

Believe for most people, it's alright to work and go forward and take precautions suggested by the health officials. Life cannot stop. At least not this moment.

I don't like being confined being a free spirit and all. But there are those of us who are self-isolating and was curious if any others are as well.

Best,
Elisabeth


P.S. Yes, I agree. Being intimate with strangers might not be the best course of action if one can avoid it. Drats!

This may lead to whole new fetish category

I think that was the point he was making, in his cynical way, but, I could be wrong.

But your use of a double negative should be corrected to, “...aren’t able to stop working for a period of time..”

Gets much worse may start doing my own handy with mask, rubber glove AND cover!!!

Still twice as many deaths each year with the flu then COVID19.

You are really not helping society. Statistic maybe still low but they are increasing fast. So many people are not tested. By the time illness symptoms show, it is too late and spread to many other people already. Which part of this don’t you get? Do you want U.S. to be like Italy or declare Marshall Law?

Since you posted, latest data is 6,519 confirmed and 115 death in U.S.

134 people will die by suicide today

103 will die in a car accident today

I person dies of heart disease every 18 seconds in the US. Yet I don't see the government spending a trillion dollars for gym memberships and vegetables.

Posts and fear-mongering like yours don't do anybody any good.

Apples and oranges babe...apples and oranges..
suicide isnt contagious.
If your arteries are clogged I wont be having a heart attack for you.

corvid-19 is highly contagious and someone can have it for days and be spreading it without even being aware they have it.
Suicides require body bags and don't use up our hospital resources.

People are still seeing providers. Things slowed down for me a couple weeks ago right about the time I started reconsidering seeing clients..

AND no the "flu" doesnt scare me away. I had two teenagers that tested positive forthe flu in my house this past winter and I had to take care of them and I continued to work and I never got the flu. My house is clean and I practice good hygiene. However, the fact that schools, businesses, malls, casinos, disneyland, and 6flags are closed coupled with the fact that I want to be responsible and do my part with the community to help get it under control so that we can go back to life as we know it and get our economy back track is what has me no longer providing until things are under control.
