Subj : covid, here we go again.. To : All From : August Abolins Date : Sat Nov 14 2020 22:26:00 Hello! How's everyone fairing with the covid situation in your area? Here in Canada, in just the last week the media has been in ecstasy reporting how the cases have sky-rocketted and it's the worse than ever it was! -- in a tone to suggest that we're all gonna die from this thing. Tonight there was a special feature reviewing the cases in a long term residence where about 17 elderly all died within a few months - purportedly because of covid. But the *star* of the show was a careworker who worked their and developed a pretty bad case of covid and nearly died herself. Fine. Covid can be deadly. But one case is not all cases! There never seems to be any reports on how the vast majority of people sailed through this thing or how bad their sysmptoms were. It's just bad bad bad... we will die. Every morning when I drive to work along a lone 4km stretch of backroad, I pass a person walking their dog. There are no houses and other people around and this person is wearing a mask! I *still* see people alone in their cars, driving, and wearing a mask! I think there is another virus that has superceded covid. -- ../|ug --- OpenXP 5.0.46 * Origin: (2:221/1.58) .
