Is the optic nerve stretchy or is there some slack to let your eye move? Posted: 24 Mar 2020 05:27 PM PDT When you move your eye to look around, does the optic nerve stretch or is there a little bit of slack inside your skull to allow the nerve to be pulled? [link] [comments] |
Why does COVID-19 affect people differently? Posted: 24 Mar 2020 10:35 PM PDT This may have been asked here before, but I'm trying to understand how a virus can show completely different symptoms in one person versus the next. For example, Donovan Mitchell, a NBA shooting guard for the Utah Jazz, tested positive for COVID-19 a week and a half ago. He's repeatedly stated that he is completely asymptomatic and is feeling better than ever, even stating the he would be able to play in a 7-game series right now. But then I see stories of people in their mid-20's (around the same age as Mitchell), who appear relatively healthy, having to be put on respirators and checked into ICU. I've never heard of a virus affecting people completely different like this. For example, if two people around the same age and health get the flu, it usually affects them about the same. And even if it's not exactly the same, they both would experience negative symptoms to some degree. Why is COVID-19 so different? Any explanation on this would be appreciated! Thanks!

Can one be tested for Covid 19 immunity? Posted: 24 Mar 2020 10:33 PM PDT I'm having trouble finding a clear answer on the internet. If a person had a mild form of the virus and wasn't sure, and a significant amount of time had elapsed, would it be possible to determine whether they were immune to the virus? P.s. If so, would they carry antibodies or other biological material that could be donated to help seriously sick people or research? [link] [comments] |

Why is there a communications blackout when entering Earth’s atmosphere? Posted: 24 Mar 2020 03:00 PM PDT What about re-entry means that signals are unable to go through ? [link] [comments] |

Is there proof that social distancing is working? Posted: 24 Mar 2020 11:46 PM PDT So I understand the idea behind social distancing, and it totally makes sense to me. But I was wondering is there any proof that it works with COVID-19, or is it just a very logical hypothesis. Like is there data showing that countries with more social distancing have less cases of COVID-19 or something like that? And if not is there data from some other pandemic maybe? [link] [comments] |
How was the social distancing recommendation of 2m/6ft derived? Posted: 23 Mar 2020 06:58 PM PDT Why was 2m/6ft chosen as the recommended distance, instead of 4ft or 10ft? Is it because the average human reach is 70cm and ( 70cm * 2 + some margin ) is approximately 2m/6ft? Do the droplets expelled by normal talking/breathing typically travel less than 6 feet? Or is there some other reason why this distance was chosen? I've tried searching online for this answer but so far I've only come across articles explaining the overall goal/theory of social distancing. I'm interested in how the specific recommended distance was chosen. [link] [comments] |
