Medellin Reports

[Paulie97]

DJT was not up for reelection, that's why no media attention.

El Mechanico.

It's all a worldwide conspiracy to harm Trump's re-election prospects. Is amazing how we've gotten every corner of the globe, ever contagious disease physician on the planet to cooperate. And all these CEOs that have seen their companies decimated by the effects of this mass conspiracy sit idly by without complaint. Mind boggling, isn't it? It's amazing these sorts of arguments have any legs, but then again Coast to Coast AM and Alex Jones have audiences.

And this illness in only four months has over double the deaths to it's credit as a worse case scenario US flu season that lasts seven to eight months. Add to that the fact that 40,000+ new cases are showing up in the states each day into the heat of the summer with no let up in sight and sounds like we have something a lot more serious than the flu. Plus the fact that evidence points to certain serious long term effects found with Covid that aren't with the flu and it's clear that we have something on our hands worth taking seriously.

I think it's a wash unless anybody duct tapes themselves inside their house. I suppose it's easier to avoid crossing paths with other people in rural areas. I have to be honest, whenever the pollution spikes up (most recently when the Sahara sand covered the city) and I have respiratory problems, it give me pause. Full disclosure, I'm pretty sure I had coronavirus last January when I was in the US for Christmas holidays. It wasn't in the news yet so I didn't associate it with what everybody now knows. At the time I thought it was bad luck because I hadn't had the flu in something like four years. It lasted a good three weeks or so and they symptoms were body aches and severe respiratory distress of the flu variety. I did not quarantine but I did go to bed much earlier than I normally do.

If available in Medellin, you might want to get an antibody test to conform whether you had it. And if so, you might, and I say might have some protection from being re-infected, which may in turn alter your behavior. The tests are readily available in the USA, but I don't know about in Medellin. Something to think about in the event your cruising around ground zero, see something of interest, and are sitting on the fence whether to pull the trigger!

That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. You are exaggerating the effect of Covid and you are PC because it is in the news every damned day just like was the case with AIDS. It was the same back then: You better have sex in a space suit or body condom, we were told. Please! The odds of getting Covid from a healthy young woman are ridiculously small.

CDC said for people to quit buying masks early on because they do not work. Now, Fauci says we were lying they do work. We did this so health care providers could have masks, and that is the truth. We were lying then but we are telling the truth now? Do you know when the CDC did this before? With AIDS. The head of the CDC admitted there was no downside to exaggerating the numbers with AIDS.

The same went with transmission from asymptomatic people. It has been yes it frequently happens, no it is rare to yes it frequently happens.

And there is nothing you can do? HCQ and Zinc? Dexamethasone? With you fear monger types, it is all doom and gloom. The world is coming to an end. Hunker down. Buy toilet paper and bleach. Avoid large groups (well except for BLM protests. When you are in a large group then, God is protecting you) Getting a STD, stolen from, or drugged is something you do not need to worry about because it is preventable but Covid? YOU SHOULD BE TERRIFIED OF THAT!

Well, at least until after the 2020 election. Then you can fuck whomever you want because Covid and influenza will miraculously have the same death rate after all and that will be the story day after day. It turns out we scientists were lying again, and in this case, it wasn't for health care providers getting masks but another public service, getting Trump out of office. Hell, the Noble committee probably has a medal ready for Biden right now.

And quit with this "I don't want to talk about Covid" shit. Yes, you do. You just want to talk about it and fear monger. What you really do not want is anyone presenting an opposing POV.

LOL its hilarious that you keep saying I'm the fear mongering type but you completely lose your shit every time you write anything covid related. You're rant is all over the place and nonsensical. You even contradict yourself. You come off like a total nutcase.

DJT was not up for reelection, that's why no media attention.

So tell me why is Covid so much more of a risk than the flu then?

People die from the flu every year. The difference is that there is not that much media attention with it.

Literally everything you wrote here doesn't make sense and is mathematically incorrect. You then stated and assumed a crazy amount of things that nobody has even mentioned here. I'm not getting sucked into making this forum a covid thread again. If you want to argue with people and be illiterate, there is another forum created specifically for this purpose.

Amen, brother. I can't believe that ignorant fools like this exist.

Question answered.

So, these girls in centro that stand out as being on the younger side are either using a fake ID (if they are under 18) while putting themselves and the client at risk, disregarding the law and going with clients who are also doing the same, or they are 18+.

Thanks,

I doubt that most of them have a fake cedula, at least not the ones I've seen who look way too young. They simply don't care and anyone who would pick one of them probably isn't going to ask to see a cedula.

[GeneHickman]

Haha well that's true, and thanks!

When the girl that I believe gave it to me said Sorry to me, I told her jokingly that Id do it all over again for her Kiss.

All joking aside though, even though I've recovered, it still wasn't an enjoyable ride, and I had that fear that it could have taken a turn for the worse.

So unpredictable.

I actually have been pretty careful in general, not socializing really, wearing a mask, keeping clean and sanitized, even seeing this apparently healthy girl.

My weakness for a sexy and pretty girl got me I suppose.

Any thoughts on how you would have felt had you been in Colombia at the time?

[Nounce]

Well yes, I realize that.

I feel fortunate having recovered fairly easy and I don't recommend the virus to anyone (obviously).
Like you said, its very unpredictable how it will affect each individual.

Glad that both of you recovered. This is probably the best outcome.

I think the doctors and scientists in US have found out a lot about the disease. As a result, the fatality rate will decrease due to improved method of treatment. People react differently to the same underlying condition. It could be more dangerous for people who show symptom late.

[LoveItHere69]

Dual Citizen. You will be held to Colombia's laws there but not sure as a Colombian citizen or USA Citizen. But when you get to USA you will face the law as a USA Citizen.

You think the lock down is tough. Multiply that by a few times worse and you get an idea what jail is like. Then subtract the women.

Even if you are 100% innocent, the legal system takes years. During that time you may not be in jail but you may have your passport taken as a flight risk. The USA Takes years to finish the legal gauntlet. Colombia will take longer. Even if you are 95% sure everything will be fine, that 5% will cause tons of stress, depression, anger, etc. As you play What-Ifs in your head for a minimum of 3 years before your case is finished.

Ignore advice from most old timers. Most laws are stricter now with more on the books. The stories or advice they are telling you are from a time long gone when laws were rarely enforced. It is far more rare to buy yourself out now unlike decades ago.

If you think the laws are black and white then you have never been through the legal system. It is all grey. Anything can happen. I learned that the ruling for or against you is 70% determined by the mood of the judge and whether he is friends with your lawyer or the other lawyer. People in industry talk. Your lawyer may hate you and tell the judge you are an ass and to send you up the schitts creek without a paddle. Never mind what your lawyer says in the courtroom.

In most cases of any sort nobody truly wins (except women in divorces). Avoid the legal system at all costs. Once in it is hard to get out.

Somebody (friend, family, foe) will let your story out on the web.

I've had a couple of drinks so this is funny because I'm patient from booze. There are no loopholes. The legal age is 18. In your example (which with all due respect is somewhere between silly and desperate) in spite of whatever other citizenship you may have you are subject to US law and you can be extradited where extradition treaty exist or prosecuted when you are in US territory. Try to prove me wrong at your own peril.

What happens if you're a dual citizen of Colombia and the US. Who's laws would apply? Could you not claim you are a citizen and following the country's' laws.Age of Consent vs Age of Majority

=============================================

Greetings Gentlemen,

The Age of Consent is the age in which girls can participate in consensual, non-commercial sex with their teen-age boyfriend without said teen-age boyfriend being charged with statutory rape.

However, the Age of Consent is irrelevant to the members of this forum.

What you need to focus on is the Age of Majority, which among other things is the age in which they can vote, get married, enlist in the military, and participate in commercial sex activities.

Please exercise caution and govern yourself accordingly.

Thanks,

Admin

Your previous comment was about the dangers of mongering being more likely to happen than getting covid. I guess you could try and have sex in a spacesuit. Assuming one is mongering, the difference between getting an STD, robbed or drugged is that these are preventable with common sense. Getting covid from someone who appears healthy is not preventable *when you are mongering* (outside of a spacesuit).

I see, you are right, it's impossible to prevent covid during mongering. The way I see it, mongering is a dangerous activity already, most mongers are risk takers, there are a ton of other risks we have to worry about.

[CzarNicholas]

Man,

Getting covid should be the last thing a monger care about, rationally, the amount of other risks involved in mongering in Medellin, especially in el centro, is much more severe both in terms of degree and likelihood. To corroborate my point, here is a short list:

Getting basic STDs.

Overdose on drugs.

Getting a girl pregnant.

Getting robbed..

I plan on being in MDE as soon as things open up, and I'm not worried about anything on your list or C19 but if I were to worry, it would be C19.

That would worry me.

Nobody can say what will happen if we get it, and you could be unlucky and be dead in a few weeks.

That's a concern, if one doesn't fully appreciate that risk, they really need a shrink.

Somebody wrote Russian roulette I believe that is an apropos way to put it.

[AdventureSeekr]

So what there are 50,000 active cases of Covid in a country of 50 million and of those 50,000, how many are asymptomatic? Say of the active cases, 10% are totally symptom free. So you are at what, a one in 10,000 chance of getting Covid even assuming a 100% transmission rate?

In contrast you go to an event with a 1000 people in Colombia, and that means one person likely has Covid. So let us say that person infects 10 people at the event. The risk of getting infected at such an event is 10 in 1000 or 1%.

It's this kind of nonsense that bugs me. If I read another article about how going to BLM protests which involved 1000's of people marching didn't cause Covid to spike I am going to puke.

And how is being with an escort in Colombia riskier than being on an airplane with a 100 people on the ride down?

To me, it is funny how the pro-scare covid people have been saying "The world is going to be messed up until we have a vaccine. " When has there been any vaccine for a cold virus that has been 100% effective? I do not get the vaccine as Godsend.

A Wake Forest study came out today and showed the death rate of Covid to be 0. 1% same as the flu.

So tell me why is Covid so much more of a risk than the flu then?

People die from the flu every year. The difference is that there is not that much media attention with it.

Thanks,

It's a bit of a paradox, but shouldn't be surprising in that some Hotels in Centro, specifically those in the pedestrian walkway like the Premier Plaza and Zona Rosa are very vigilant in checking ID's which has been my experience with them, and are good at knowing which ID's may appear to be fake, where as if you go on the street on the backside of the Church towards the Museum where the majority of the youngster's hang, they are being taken upstairs by Colombians into Hotels who know that many of these girls are under 18.

So yes, everybody is breaking the law, the girls, the clients, and the Hotels as well, but not a big deal for them.
