    1. So you sit there all smug in ridiculing a yungerman that lives a life of sacrifice where every dollar counts?! The federal government sent money for him which has been wrongfully withheld by BMG and you laugh at him?! I’m not sure how much rachmanus you will get when the time for your financial situation takes a major downfall. Such achzariyus on your part.. I wonder if you truly have the 3 simanim of rachmanim, bayshanim, and gomlei chassadim that yidden are supposed to exhibit.

    2. As soon as you wear a mask.

    3. Posting evrey day about where is my my money does not seem to a effort to find out where or how to get the money. For that you call or contact BMG.
      The daily posting is just a excuse to badmouth BMG among the many readers of Hefkervelt. The poster has not told the readers what BMG responded if he ever contacted them. thus Rachmonus here is under the 'Kol Hamerachem al Achzarim....." category.

    1. Why did the false positives begin to spike at the same time that quite a few people that i know of got sick with covid like symptoms?
      OCHD was reporting 2-3 cases per day just a few weeks ago. Now its up to 35. Any theories?

    1. Tests are not accurate

      Delete
    2. If they are inacurate, how can you trust the negatives? There are way more negatives than positives, so it stands to reason that a larger percentage of them are inaccurate than the positives.

  6. Vote Coles out of office! He was out partying on Purim like everyone else. In my opinion, he's the COVID super-spreader!

  7. On Thursday, the United States recorded 45,604 new coronavirus cases, according to a database maintained by The Times. If the rates of contagiousness in Massachusetts and New York were to apply nationwide, then perhaps only 4,500 of those people may actually need to isolate and submit to contact tracing.

    One solution would be to adjust the cycle threshold used now to decide that a patient is infected. Most tests set the limit at 40, a few at 37. This means that you are positive for the coronavirus if the test process required up to 40 cycles, or 37, to detect the virus.

    Tests with thresholds so high may detect not just live virus but also genetic fragments, leftovers from infection that pose no particular risk — akin to finding a hair in a room long after a person has left, Dr. Mina said.
