Looks unlikely to me. Going by actual studies done rather than figures pulled out of the arse, figures range from 3.6 to 23 times per hour.

S&P 500 down by 11.5% in one week. What a fucking disaster. Bezos's net worth has dropped from 165 to 146 billion US dollars. How on earth can he possibly survive a loss of that magnitude?

I am more concerned about myself and what's left of my savings, irrationality moves the stock markets.

According to a Professor at Trinity College Dublin on the Late Late Show (RTE) last night. But of course you had to fart against the wind again.

I provided links to two studies. You provided nothing. Except for ex recto assertions, of course.

Are you really concerned how often you touch your face? A pretty empty life then. Who really fucking cares? Stop farting.

Not I. You can probably see the actual alert messages because your browser logs you in automatically. No browser can do that unless you have an account in the first place.

That's a shame. I thought that I could post some COVID-19 info without the media hype.
