COVID-19

[The Man from Mars]

Hi There!!

Is anyone going to talk about the Tests done that show that the animal most affected by Covid-19 is Humans (This was done in many different Labs) which is quite interesting as the virus just showed up in Wuhan 7 months ago.

It makes a Good case that Covid-19 was created in a Lab and released in China to spread to the worlds population

Was Trumps Re-Election projection so good that Our Masters Nuked the World

This also explains the Impeach Trump Fiasco that everyone knew was Stupid as It Could Not Pass the Senate

I am of a general different opinion about Covid.

I do not blame to the current US President for the pandemic nor do I actually believe that you could lock down the entirety of America until the virus "magically" went away. There can be arguments made to blame whom ever you want so that you can sleep at night and feel justified in your hindsight, I personally do not see the need.

Currently the death rate for Covid is 0.04% world wide which is obscenely low, though the "Confirmed" cases are astronomically high. This is seemingly at odds with current media reporting and general "word-of-mouth". One of the current major issues with the nasal swab tests are the number of asymptomatic positive test results that can result from non-covid 19 viral strains.

Both SARS and MERS (Covids 2 & 12 IIRC) are still in circulation in their original form and have positive tests in America every year. They have also mutated and joined the current viral version of the "common cold" which will give a positive test on the above nasal swab for covid. The only currently known way to distinguish the difference is by looking at the specific blood antibodies (which is not currently done).

If all we do all day is watch the news you would think millions of people are dying across the world. We currently sit just below 600k which I believe is probably low as I do not trust the reported numbers from China. This pandemic is not good but the world is not in as dire straits as some want us to believe. At the end of the day I believe this is much more of a personal responsibility than a mandated government one.

If someone wants to scream about their rights and gather publicly for protests, political rally's, or drinks on the Florida beach then get sick... well sucks to be them, maybe they will learn from their mistakes (probably not).

Below is a link to a nice barebones reporting website, no politics just numbers.

Wuhan coronavirus is a bad cold. Some people die from complications related to the common cold. The same kind of people also have a high risk of dying from this coronavirus. But we never shut down the world over a cold.

what i take from this is we should have better hygiene standards and health care?

maybe just a world wide lesson in best practice. we can make each other sick. think of others.

Here, in the Philippines, the cases are rising very fast, we used to have lockdown and the cases was on average around 200 per day, it was like that most of lockdown, but after the economy re-opened average cases was 1500 cases per day in the least, but it seemed that re-opening was necessary because a lot of people was starving and not being able to get food, and help from the government was only so limited. I'm not really one to talk about our president here since I'm still a young lad that isn't up to date with news but I can say that he has made terrible decisions on handling Covid-19and events during lockdown. precautionary measures are being taken and obeyed as far as I know, but there are still a lot of places that are packed with people where there are no enforcers, and people who don't know how to use their masks. Quarantine measures are also eased, there are restrictions but most are open.

We all can hope for the best.

I'm a big believer in personal responsibility. For me, that includes social distancing, washing my hands more frequently, and staying home when I'm sick. I draw the line at forcing others to modify their behavior on my account and I ask people and government respond likewise.

If I was more concerned about this virus or similar infectious diseases, I might invest in N95 masks to protect myself.

I am home just today from an almost 2 week care adventure in the hospital. Praise God for His benefits and the trained professionals He placed in my life there. Everyone was kind and many kept up a high level of interest in what was clearly an understaffed "war" footing. The best of the best were two journeyman nurses who came from the Midwest- an Air Force trained young lady from Colorado who blew out the curve on care, and a young man from Iowa who was also impressive. The unsung heroes of health care. For now I am finally home, over the oxygen crisis and will convalesce in place. Many thanks to all my family and emotional supporters. I am convinced that the current strain that flew through the South is a bit different than the first batch from New York, and feels like a really bad lung disorder. The doctors are saying that based on observations, I should likely test positive for a couple more weeks, so they said to not bother until then. We'll see. Wow. At this point I am on bottled O2, kind of weak and even typing is an odd effort. I am hopeful that tomorrow will be better. Thank God for hearth and home.

Glad to hear that you were able to get good care and are on the mend!

Hi Mars man! No family spread, we're being careful. Glad you're fairly ok. We are in this together and the Legion is a small part of my internet coping. As a family member used to say, "This too in time shall pass."
