Somehow COVID-19 News

[DrB]

Somehow, sometimes I think we are not getting this news from both sides on this correct. One side "you folks should  not worry" or the other side "we're all gonna die"...  Somewhere there is the correct middle ground.

It's obviously very contagious, and certainly capable of overwhelming health systems,  but a big study (Europe?) is saying that 50% of the infected show no symptoms.  That's pretty lame,  as far a doooooom! goes.

And all the stats are still pretty much in line (and lower) with our annual seasonal flu.

I'm sure glad that we decided to destroy the world's / USA's economy this year.

I don't get it.

sometimes a lot of that.

"What's the frequency, Kenneth?" is your Benzedrine, uh-huh
I was brain-dead, locked out, numb, not up to speed
I thought I'd pegged you an idiot's dream
Tunnel vision from the outsider's screen

I never understood the frequency, uh-huh
You wore our expectations like an armored suit, uh-huh

I'd studied your cartoons, radio, music, TV, movies, magazines
Richard said, "Withdrawal in disgust is not the same as apathy"
A smile like the cartoon, tooth for a tooth
You said that irony was the shackles of youth

You wore a shirt of violent green, uh-huh
I never understood the frequency, uh-huh

"What's the frequency, Kenneth?" is your Benzedrine, uh-huh
Butterfly decal, rearview mirror, dogging the scene
You smile like the cartoon, tooth for a tooth
You said that irony was the shackles of youth

You wore a shirt of violent green, uh-huh
I never understood the frequency, uh-huh
You wore our expectations like an armored suit, uh-huh
I couldn't understand

You said that irony was the shackles of youth, uh-huh
I couldn't understand
You wore a shirt of violent green, uh-huh
I couldn't understand
I never understood, don't **** with me, uh-huh

Throw out the high, throw out the low.  What is left is most likely accurate.

I've always said we won't know about C-19 until it in the US and our medical community is on top of it.  We can't believe China, and Italy was just stupid during the onset:  "Hey everybody, go hug a Chinese person to show you're not a racist".

All the world wants Donald Trump out of the White House.  China wants their dominance back, Europe wants their milk cow back, Mexico and Central America want our border back open for a long term takeover, and Mexico and Canada don't like a better negotiator and want their NAFTA back.

This was the only thing they could engineer to tank the economy and try to get a democrat back in the White House.  Don't think for a minute China wasn't willing to start all this just to get a weak democrat they can push around back in the WH.

This is a coup, plain and simple. Americans were too independent, so they have to be brought to heel.

Whether by accident or design this was brought upon the world by China and their inept or deliberate measures helped to spread it far and wide.

If we don't realize what a colossal mistake it has been to consider them friends than we deserve the trouble we're reaping now and it will only get worse.
