I'm sticking to the green, except for grocery shopping.  It'll be a pain to make any kind of table for this.  The columns are much better defined than the rows, though. [[Special:Contributions/108.162.245.150|108.162.245.150]] 18:37, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
 
:Same! I think we do need to make a table or similar structure to explain each item though. Not exiting, but necessary! Do you think we should switch everything to columns? Since we've started with rows, maybe we should just continue...[[User:Cow|Cow]] ([[User talk:Cow|talk]])
 
 
Staying home is a death trap. Here some random numbers (Germany 2019): Deadly accidents at home - 8000, Deadly accidents in traffic - 3500. [[Special:Contributions/172.69.54.199|172.69.54.199]] 07:50, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
 
:Nice argument. Why don't you back it up with a source? 'Cause I doubt the truth of those numbers. I think they were made up. [[User:R3TRI8UTI0N|R3TRI8UTI0N]] ([[User talk:R3TRI8UTI0N|talk]]) 04:19, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
 
 
Singing in a church: is this where the expression "mass contamination" comes from?[[Special:Contributions/141.101.107.166|141.101.107.166]] 08:31, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
 
: Or "weapons of mass destruction"? [[Special:Contributions/162.158.159.100|162.158.159.100]] 09:00, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
 
 
Not all the things on the far right seem to have equal covid risk.  Simply going to a restaurant or some of the others that are simply dangerous by being around a lot of other people in close proximity doesn't seem to compare to opening a kissing booth at a covid testing site, the eating test tube things, and the mosh pit on a cruise ship for instance.--[[Special:Contributions/108.162.216.154|108.162.216.154]] 09:03, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
 
:There's no inherent extra disease risk in _opening_ a kissing booth (beyond the possible proximity to others). However, the people working/volunteering at the booth you opened that might have a higher-than-average risk due to kissing all the testers and people coming to be tested. :p [[Special:Contributions/108.162.216.140|108.162.216.140]] 12:08, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
 
:: (Required to make a choice between them and someone else, for which all else is equal) I'd kiss an off-duty Covid-tester, because they're probably far more protected by PPE during their shift (and know how to don and doff safely) than most other people, and screened with even more caution. The tester would probably not want to kiss ''me'', in my booth, due to at least the latter point. [[Special:Contributions/162.158.158.43|162.158.158.43]] 14:04, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
 
 
I feel like [[1252: Increased Risk]] is quite relevant here. But I can't decide whether it should be linked as general trivia, or directly related to the paragraph about dangers of going to the beach. --[[User:Lupo|Lupo]] ([[User talk:Lupo|talk]]) 09:16, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
 
 
There have been cases of known transmission of COVID-19 during choir rehearsals and performances, so it belongs where it is shown.  The choir at my church is down to two people, at opposite ends of their area.  [[User:Nutster|Nutster]] ([[User talk:Nutster|talk]]) 16:01, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
 
 
"Skateboarding in a mosh pit on a cruise ship": So this looks like confirmation that NOFX and Bad Religion will be playing on the 2021 70,000 Tons of Metal cruise. [[User:Iguanabob|Iguanabob]] ([[User talk:Iguanabob|talk]]) 14:47, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
 
 
To be fair to test-tube eaters, every COVID test I've taken involved ''plastic'' tubes, not glass. So really hard to chew, but probably won't break into sharp pieces. [[User:Nitpicking|Nitpicking]] ([[User talk:Nitpicking|talk]]) 02:13, 31 October 2023 (UTC)
