Think of a guitar string, or a tuning fork

Peter, Bayou Renaissance Man - 10 hours ago

This video shows the Verrazzano Narrows Bridge in New York vibrating in high winds a couple of weeks ago. Listen closely. It's just like a guitar string or a tuning fork. Get it vibrating at the right frequency, and it sings to you. If the bridge is properly built, it'll withstand those stresses. If it's not, like the infamous Tacoma Narrows Bridge known as "Galloping Gertie", things can get very interesting . . . I guess things have come a long way in bridge design since 1940. Even so, it's kinda scary to see the Verrazzano Narrows Bridge sway so ominously. Peter

Healthcare Workers 7X As Likely To Get Severe COVID-19

News Staff, Science 2.0 blogs - 12 hours ago

A new study finds that unless you are suffering a life-threatening illness, the worst place to go if you want to avoid exposure to coronavirus is to a doctor. You instead should hope you have a "non-essential" job, just not so non-essential you don't get paid. It's obvious that that those working in healthcare roles are at heightened risk of contracting SARS-CoV-2 and therefore COVID-19, but it has not been clear what the risks might be compared to those working in other sectors. read more

While a loud minority says there needs to be lockdowns for the foreseeable future, they are often government-funded workers whose jobs are secure - and they are not thinking about the mental health issues, including among children. Social distancing and school closures are thought to have badly affected children's mental health but there has been little hard evidence to substantiate it, largely because of a lack of good baseline data for the same children collected before the first lockdowns in March. There was no reason. Everyone believed this would be three weeks, not a year or mo...
