Yep, its good to know that being ourselves is the best solution ever. We know what to do in a time of urgency; we know where the hospital is, or where the masks are or even the gloves. If we know anything about medical procedures, we need to keep our hands washed and stay 6 feet from each.

The dilemma of the politicians and their sometimes conflicting advice comes through here. Also the surreal feel of walking around outside, in this virus swept world, where everybody wears gloves and crosses the street to avoid each other. Everyone is scrambling to get gloves, masks and ventilators and when we have hundreds of thousands of them, the main part of the epidemic will be over. And we didn't have them ready because this didn't happen for a hundred years and no state government is going to budget for something that hasn't happened in a hundred years. estory

I agree, we have lost our ability to plan in advance, we are so used to react or better say overreact.

"I had hard time breathing and walking in the sun. It took me at least 5 minutes to readjust." I have not had my 'walk in teh sun' ... Now I am even more reluctant! Hahah!
I think you are still sane, but check back in next Sunday ... just to be sure?
Enjoyed!

This is an excellent chapter in the book about fears concerning COVID-19, covering the different approaches to treatment, security etc. with a few pearls such as the greed of the public that sends them flaunting all safety rules. Where are the monitoring police when we need them? (outside my window [in France] is a group of 5 young people having a street party in the sun).

I know, in Romania is the same story. There are people that have a death wish and take others with them.

Hi
These are hard times. Hard to self isolation or social distancing. We can only do the best we can.
You have some SPAG hence the 4 instead of 5 stars.
Mostly left out verbs.
I'm on my phone so can't copy and fix like usual.
As usual fix it up, let me know and I will change the rating to 5.

We probably have the lowest growth and cases in the world, but the best testing, and we are not compelled to wear masks. Please stop stressing, Will it change anything? No! Fear is the opposite of faith. Fear will get you ulcers even if the virus hits, anyway fear will not change anything, but at least faith will bring peace. Blessings Roy
Typo (Idicracy) Idiocy? 2 : You can't stop me (for) wearing it. From? The police to (shut) on sight. Shoot?
