Sticking with GB because politics and money is involved with the world decisions. But do not forget we have a brain too. If the numbers are going, then what does this tell us?

In the province of Ontario the number was going up in spite of lower testing earlier in the week. Yesterday at a park in Toronto - it was Crowded - no social distancing, etc.

Doctors are furious. Here they are trying to keep people healthy alive and people are doing stupid stuff like that, then when some get sick - and they will, they go to hospital where these doctors have to treat them, possibly exposing them to high viral load and then the doctors get sick.

 

A couple of CO's ago Henry told us, "We love you but if you are sick, Stay At Home."  Much more important now!

 

At a former congregation, where my son still is, 2 elders got the Flu. One died and the other never recovered completely- it affected his breathing.

 

The country has recommended everybody going out to wear masks -Not to protect you but to protect those who you come near.

 

I have worn a mask when going out for 2 months now. People are paranoid, if you sneeze or cough, you may get punched, kicked, stabbed or shot,

depending upon which part of the city you are in. In my case, because I cough & sneeze - heart condition/meds and allergies, the mask is for my protection

from these paranoid people.

 

 

My wife hates to hear about all the news about covid-19, I feel energized because it is another sign of the end fast approaching.

 

If I catch, do I think I will die? Yes!  Am I too worried about it? No!  I died once before and have not feared death ever since.

 

Didn't like medical staff way of resuscitation - had burn marks on my body and tongue was very swollen and black and blue.

Doctors at 3rd hospital that day looked at my tongue too and commented they had never seen a tongue that bad before.

A 45 minute procedure took 2 hours and they only fixed part of the problem. Have had more procedures in the ensuing years

and still have a foot in the grave.

Surgeon calls me a walking time bomb. Can we do anything about it? Not much.

 

Am I ready to die? No! Jehovah willing I hope to live into the new world without dying.

 

Do I take recommendations seriously about this virus? Absolutely. Do I think the numbers of cases are inflated? No!

If 10% of population have the virus but you have only tested 1% it sort of throws the case numbers off.

In the US, the president told the bean case counters to ingore those who died before may 6th and those who did not die in hospital, thus the

100,000 Americans who have officially died is probably much much higher - but probably they are not white-white collar workers so who cares?

I have those light medical masks - have had since a chest infection after open heart. I disinfect mask every time I go out - I hang it in stream of ozone till I go out again.

Depending on how you use your mask and how often you disinfect it, your doctor may deserve a wee bit more respect from you. Wearing a mask in the long term can result in you damaging your health, if you do not use it reasonably. Depending on what kind of mask it is, it will likely prevent you spreading it to others and hardly prevent you contracting it.

 

See, this is what bothers me. Everybody thinks they know something, when apparently, even the science experts can't agree on stuff.

The doctor thought I should wear no mask. Clearly he was wrong.  Something is better than nothing.  That is just common sense. And now,  most agree that wearing a mask is recommended. As for the rest,  that's just splitting hairs.  I'm glad I started wearing a mask when I did. I'm pretty sure the Dr now wishes he has been wearing one sooner.

 

Ps. By the way,  he was not my dr. I was with someone visiting their Dr. I laughed goodnaturedly when I replied, because I didn't want to offend him.

Stream of ozone ? Hydrogen peroxide?

I use Lysol spray for my kn95 , basic surgical and cloth masks and let air dry before use.

Try this link from vox.com - not same article but close enough.

Ozone generator. Some young woman in our city has made a business out of using an encased  now repurposed ozone machine for sanitizing masks.

Rats are getting aggressive hunting for food amid restaurant closures, CDC warns

Humans aren’t the only ones hankering for the days they could dine out at their cities’ restaurants: Some rats that miss feasting on the scraps are becoming increasingly brazen to find new food sources, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned Thursday.

I also agree that the act of washing with simple clean soap and water works well. That's why I was confused by soap 'spray'. Bacteria does not like soap and water or even ammonia.

 

I do have to mention a concern I have with the typical isopropyl alcohol hand sanitizer,  natural cancer clinics agree that isopropyl alcohol causes parasites to become more active, it promotes more cancers. My proof is a sister who went through the regime at Hoxy. But time will tell in the population of over-sanitized people, if we see more cancers I guess its proven correct. I'm still using On-guard and 190 proof vodka. 

What! Isopropyl alcohol causes cancer! 🤔 

Never heard of that one. I use it often. Checking blood sugars. Can't win for losing. 😔

600 Physicians Say Lockdowns Are A ‘Mass Casualty Incident’

 

The physicians’ letter focuses on the impact on Americans’ physical and mental health.  “The millions of casualties of a continued shutdown will be hiding in plain sight, but they will be called alcoholism, homelessness, suicide, heart attack, stroke, or kidney failure. In youths it will be called financial instability, unemployment, despair, drug addiction, unplanned pregnancies, poverty, and abuse.

.

“Suicide hotline phone calls have increased 600%,” the letter said. Other silent casualties:  “150,000 Americans per month who would have had new cancer detected through routine screening.”

.

Patients fearful of visiting hospitals and doctors’ offices are dying because COVID-phobia is keeping them from seeking care. One patient died at home of a heart attack rather than go to an emergency room. 

 

[pnutts]

We had an old lady die in our building a couple of weeks ago. She died of suspected heart attack and no one knew for a couple of days, until daughter had our manager, a brother,  get police to check.

People are afraid to go to hospital since London area has had 500 cases and 50 deaths, although a large number were in Long Term Care.

David, I am exhibiting symptoms with a mild headache for a few days, had the runs, and now I woke up in a sweat and a mild fever. It's a mild gnawing pain headache. Do you think they will test me?

New York Times busted for making a pretty big mistake by including a homicide victim in their front page of 1000 Covid 19 deaths:

 

https://cbs2iowa.com/amp/news/local/cr-man-mistakenly-listed-in-new-york-times-front-page-covid-19-obituaries

 

Clearly, this author just googled obituaries, probably “covid 19 obituaries” and copy/pasted a list of names, and didn’t bother to fact check. 

And the media wonders why there is a divide and a high level of suspicion in this country: it’s due to their one-sided, half baked reporting.
