2021-01-17 The time has come to "Boys, Be Alone"! [長年日記]

(Continuation from yesterday)

The risk of new coronary infections can be calculated using probability theory, which you learned in middle school (or should have), without having to bring up quantum theory.

How to calculate the variation in the probability of infection depending on the number of people at a dinner can be found here.

To begin with.

- Lunch is safe, dinner is dangerous.

or

- Safe before a state of emergency is declared, dangerous after.

"What a joke, that? "

I was really surprised to find out that there were people who believed in such things (*).

(*)The Minister in charge of countermeasures against the new coronavirus infection has issued an urgent message saying, "The risk of infection remains the same even during the daytime. Please refrain from going out not only at night but also during the day.

-----

My message has been consistently the same.

"It's okay to eat out. You can drink until midnight. You can stay up all night talking, making noise, it doesn't matter.

However, do it alone."

That's all.

Even God can't infect you with a virus when you are alone.

-----

The time has come to "Boys, Be Alone"!

======

Boys be alone!

Be alone not for your egoism

not for your self-satisfaction

not for that evanescent thing which men call criticism for others.

Be alone for the attainment of all that a man ought to be.

======

If you don't know what the above is a parody of, please go through it.
