So it is the first of the month again, so that means rent is due.

Today is May the first. In the U.S. as of this day there have been 64 742 deaths from Covid 19. There are thousands dying from this every day, and tens of thousands of new infections every day.

And these numbers are expected to increase as businesses open and social distancing eases off.

I am just putting this here as a marker, a signpost in time.

It is one month later. There are still tens of thousands of new cases of Covid 19 every day in the US. Approximately one thousand people are still dying from this disease each and every day. 106 000 people dead at this point in time.

And now you have major protests and riots throughout the US. Cities are burning. And the White House is focused on s petty feud with Twitter.

Tell me, is America Great Again yet?

And now the rate of infection has skyrocketed up, 30, 40 thousand new infections every day. The number of deaths has not increased according, so that is good, but the death toll is still increasing by hundreds every day. 129 000 dead as of this post.

I wonder what it will be like next month. Will the numbers be down, up, or the same? Will the trumpster fire start recommending people wear masks and social distance? We will see.

We'll see indeed.

It's not like the virus is going anywhere.

What does that mean? Are you saying you don’t think people’s actions have any impact?

The only impact is that of a delay at best. Just buying time.

Silly Zen Man. Clearly the solution is simply to stop testing. No testing, and new case numbers fall to zero. Covid is defeated and America is great again!
USA! USA! USA!

Yeah, let's face it, with this kinda bug it's like the cold or flu. It's going to exist as long as we do. 99.99% of people will get over it, but in the meanwhile let's get back to work. The alternative, of course, is living in fear of it forever and being miserable. Oh, we might die? You've been dying every day slowly, get over it.

I think the masks are giving a false sense of security. If masks worked 100% then we would have been wearing them for countless coronaviruses already. Best think we can do is hygiene and distance. But it's not going anywhere. It'll take time.

you'd think a change of season would stave it off.. Why do the cold and the flu show up as sort of annual things compared to this? Is that because of mutation rate or a weather factor, are people getting reinfected with covid now or what?

Fear messes with the immuine system. Best to acknowledge fear (comes in many forms) and address it so one doesn't fall more in risk for any virus. Pace.
