I will probably wait a couple weeks and let the initial haircut rush subside

Might be a good plan, I usually get my hair cut every 4 weeks, the day they shut salons down I had an appointment so it’s been about 9 weeks now, when your wife looks at you and says “dude you need a haircut” it’s time!

Don't wait too long. People misbehave, cases shoot up and the government will be all like...

Me to, booked in for Monday at 10am, I ordered clippers about 2 weeks ago from Amazon and they still haven’t arrived, good thing cause my wife probably would have buzzed me.

Been cutting my own hair since the 90's, its so simple to do, and saves me time and $$. In the early years of doing it, I made some really bad mistakes, grooves when I forgot I didnt have a guard on. But now I think I can cut my hair better than I get it cut at a salon, and for $35 cheaper.

Working from home for the past 2 months, I decided to try cutting it differently, if I screwed it up no one would see it. I watched some youtube vids, and well, it actually turned out really good, and I kinda wish I changed it up years ago.

Nows the time to try doing it yourself, assuming you are not working publicly at the moment.

Good to know, I have a pair of clippers coming so I will give it a go when I am on holidays this summer.

Nice work! NZ and Manitoba seem to be in a similar boat when it comes to numbers.

Interesting about the dextromethorphan findings. I couldn't find the reference now if I tried but I definitely recall reading somewhere quite a while back that taking the usual cold/cough remedies might have been making people worse.

Explainer: South Korean findings suggest 'reinfected' coronavirus cases are false positives

I hope this is true. My biggest concern is you can contract this repeatedly, which would mean only a cure can solve this issue. Hopefully its a one and done scenario.

WHO conditionally backs Covid-19 vaccine trials that infect people

If you want something for the fall, I think this might have to happen. Personally, I hope it does.

Researchers make major breakthrough in COVID-19 vaccine search

I was going to post the 60 minutes episode from 1976 about the swine flu vaccine but for some strange reason you tube took it down ... the truth hurts. Hundreds of people either died or got Guillain-Barre syndrome, which damages nerves and lead to paralysis.

Not sure if this is exactly the right thread for a story about GBS resulting from flu vaccinations.

Before you call Mulder and Scully to investigate the mysterious disappearance of that 60 Minutes video from YouTube, you might want to consider that CBS asked them to take it down for violating their copyright...a crazy theory, I know, but we should leave no stone unturned here.
