Not all the time but way too often. Was watching that Cabinet of Curiosities on Netflix the other day and there was a guy on it who looks kind of like someone else but not quite and neither my wife nor myself could remember who he actually was so I had to stop the show and google it. Then there was Doc in Nobody, I was sure it was him but I had to stop and google it to be sure.

What makes things worse for me is that I have excellent recall for faces but I am terrible with remembering names - to the point that if I went to highschool with you 25 years ago then I will likely recognise you on the street today even if I haven't seen you since highschool but I will not for the life of me remember your name lol

>Africa's population will go from 1.3 billion today to 4.3 billion in 2100, while the US's will only increase by 100 million.

This assumes that current population trends will continue for the next 80 years though. COVID-19 has already changed the projected population growth to peak at 10.4 billion in 2080 before dropping off. It is going to be a bit hard for Africa alone to increase it's population by 3 billion when it is projected that the entire world population is only going to increase by 2 billion.

>Looked into the requirements but we don’t think we qualify.

Just because you think you do not qualify does not mean that you do not actually qualify. You will never know unless you actually apply.

Hit up google and see if there are any groups in your area/state that you can talk to about your options to get help with your current situation. There may be groups (or even subreddits here) that can guide you through the application process for welfare benefits/SNAP/etc to increase your chances of qualifying or there may even be state programs that can help you out (e.g. help for covering medical bills/prescriptions, help with rent and/or bills, etc). You might be able to find groups who can provide you with food hampers to help cut down the cost of your food bills.

One of the biggest issues I often see with getting help when you are in financial distress is actually finding the services that are out there to help you in those times of need. This is where the groups that I mention above can really help you out.

The ability for viral particles to survive in the air also is dependent on the temperature and humidity. Not to mention that being cold reduces the efficiency of your immune system - the reason why you get a fever when you have a infection is that your immune system works best at higher than average body temperatures and the higher temperatures tends to impair the ability of the infection to replicate and spread.

>When I got Covid the active infection was noticeably spreading through my throat and sinuses rapidly (like over the course of half an hour). My immune system beat off the major infection before it got into my lungs and I just wound up with a month of "long" symptoms.

It depends on the variant that you caught. Some target the lower respiratory tract more while others target the upper respiratory tract more. One of the reasons why the early Omicron variants were not as dangerous as the Delta variant was that they targeted the upper respiratory tract more which meant that you were far less likely to end up with viral pneumonia or other issues with your lungs.
