Letter: Can talking spread disease?

I was taught that to stop disease from occurring or spreading it was best to avoid talking in public.

You can't get sick from anyone! It's all in your mind. Sickness or Wellness it's all what you believe. And a believe is just a thought you think all the time. Change your thoughts and all your dreams will come true. All you have to do is feel your body when you talk about a subject. if you fell bad then that's your body telling you it's a wrong thought. It's all about feeling.

[Come on now]

This letter is about the stupidest thing I have ever read.....the only thing "stupider" (i love that non-word)is the love doctors comments

Colds and things are caused by germs....bacteria and vyruses.....not by thoughts or feelings....and jeeze if you are afraid of people talking in public then by all means shut yourself in.....the only thing you have got to ask yourself is what kind of life that will be.

[Good Grief]

Dontcha know,.. only the PARANOID survive.. lol.

Come on now if you do not believe in what love doctor is telling you I must assume you are not a good Christian! Really!
My question is can't the magazines in the waiting rooms of hospitals and doctors offices spread germs? I see people sneezing into them often enough.
And the big one is Money does it not carry germs, lets not carry money.
Do you recall your mommy telling us not to put money in our mouths. I always thought that is because people pee their pants where they carry it, but later I learned pee is drinkable by the standards of some cultures.
Well I am not worried, I know this flu fear mongering is a hoax put upon us by the Pharmaceutical companies every so often for profit. When ever there dividends are low.

Feck, Fawn, Lush and the rest of the crazed fringe gasbags certainly are spreading a major disease called ignorance.

I always wear gloves when typing a response to Joe Sixpack. I don't want to catch dimentia through the internet.

My wife assures me that she got VD over the phone. Thanks goodness, because at first I thought maybe she was cheating.

[This is a joke]

This letter has got to be a joke. I guarantee the person who wrote this wanted to show the ER how stupid the letters are that they print.

This rivals all of the right wing crazy stuff for idiocy.

Everyone has a flappajawea in the tribe, how else does sheeoott travel faster than FedEx - funny how the story mutates as it goes...

[GeoPin44]

Really? Really? The editor saw fit to print this? No wonder I feel stupider (one of my favorites also) every time I read the ER.

is stupid a disease?

if so then yes, talking does spread it.
you should get checked out.

Principal: Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
Billy Madison: Okay, a simple "wrong" would've done just fine.

Maybe, the AMA is trying to tell me my drinking is a disease. And that with just a few more government grants they just maybe able to find a cure. Maybe it will be cured with this new health care.

[Holy Cow]

And you ar proof of it. LOL

Talking is not the problem, it is breathing! We've got to stop all this unrestricted breathing. Of course it is only breathing out that spreads germs. So in public, only breathe in. No breathing out!

[Glasnos]

Air borne pathogens?
Duh! Why do you think doctors wear masks?

Also money! Always wash your hands after handling money.

Excellent letter. Most of mankinds problems would be solved if we didn't talk to each other. Don't talk to anyone, don't make eye contact, don't go anywhere. avoid large groups and small, in fact avoid all people. That's what they must do in Guam and they have ZERO swine flu.
