33. Funny how the CDC, WHO, Mayo Clinic and the Cleveland Clinic say

"four days before and four days after", yet one guy says "fourteen days before and that's it" and some people want you to believe only HE is the expert. And you "don't know why" but you are convinced this is the truth. I looked for any other source to confirm the 14 day period but was unable to find anyone else that makes the same claim. It appears that the incubation period is 10-14 days and carriers are most contagious or only contagious from 4 days before until 4 days after spots appear. If we can figure out why people are so willing to believe the odd man out, we will know why maga exists.
