5G isn't even a thing, it's a marketing gimmick. 

I agree. Companies will be spending trillions of dollars replacing equipment, erecting many many more towers (the range is ~1/3 that of the old dishes?). And for what advantage? For smart cars? For live streaming? For medical records (possibly but I doubt it)?

I live in a rural area and have most of my life. We don't have any cell phone service here but we use a wifi connection to our internet from a tablet to place phone calls. Our internet speed is 5mbs.

I say no to 5G, particularly Wauwei.   

I too live out in the country, only go out when some one takes to the store (I don't have a car), Now this is totally off your subject but I need help, How do I lvl up,  I'm on lvl 07 and the rest  up to level 100, can't figure this out , thank you for any help you can give me (O, PinFeathers says wait for the next update) Stay safe, stay happy and a pleasant evening to you

Check the Game Manager.  You may have to do a manual update.

5G simply stands for "fifth generation" of wireless signal broadband strength.  And it's mostly fiber optics, not metal wiring.  So, it *is* able to carry more info and at much faster speeds. Getting it to actually cover all the land is going to be an enormous challenge, but it will be easier than Verizon's FIOS.  They started at the coasts and are working their way inland.  Kansas City should get it sometime in 2525.

this is something I always do, gees I don't understand it, it's like I've missed something somewhere, ugh

It's just too bad they're not taking all of the politicians with them!

I sprinkled some salt  on the edge of the the outdoor, to keep the ants out, and my daughters laughingly suggested that I was preventing supernatural invasion. Just eat more veg, to not be a bloodsucker!  LOL

too many books to read

Yeah, that's my problem also. Once getting into a GOOD book, get so involved, it is hard to fall asleep and have vivid dreams. But those dreams seem so real, that I have to make a cue to wake up, when it seems too scary.

Not to support the WHO, but as with any new virus it's hard to know everything straight away. The virus is in the same category as the flu, so the spread is similar. A lot of it (the spread) also depends on the circumstances - if a person has a weak immune system, or a strong one, what is the load of the virus that person has, how is the building ventilated, how many other people are in close proximity and for how long, are they talking, laughing, singing, or silent. All these contributes to how the virus will spread. Scientists are normal people like everyone else, we learn every day what else the virus has in store. Hence, the recommendations change. But some things are constant - keep your distance, cover your mouth and nose if sneezing or coughing, wash your hands with soap for at least 20 sec, stay home if unwell. Those have never changed and they would work even without a mask. The mask is necessary when the distancing is not possible, or if you are in a small enclosed space with bad ventilation/no outside air. And, of course, I'm talking about a proper N95/99 mask, not a surgical one.
