Yes, we had people who were worried here on FR. I think many of us reacted to the weeks of uncertainty by expressing our fear and anxiety. I am still worried about my parents, in-laws, and our centurion grandmother. They are all in the highest risk group although I have confidence in the HCQ treatment if they begin to exhibit any symptoms.
The American media did us a great disservice in their coverage of this virus from the start. The doom doctors did the same in the daily briefings although I am glad Trump did them so everyone heard the same thing he was hearing.
The media continue this today by not reporting good news (even from the doom doctors), but I would cut some of our fellow FReepers slack. Everyone’s perspective of this was different and based on their own experience and it will likely remain that way even as we admit mistakes were made.
I suppose it is baked into the cake at this point, but I don’t have any anger with those FReepers who were concerned and had a different view than you, me, or anyone else.
Nor do I, but I wasn't speaking of mere differences of opinion.
I have great resentment to those whose posts made then appear to have been on the payroll of the Chinese with their constant, irrational over the top panic mongering.
Travis McGee is one of those, and his adept use of colorful graphics, similar to a score of other political thugs of the last hundred years, set him apart from the rest and was especially irritating.
Our media used this to bash Trump. Never let a crisis go to waste.
Be sure your family hass enough zinc to use along with their HCQ. HCQ is an ionophore which changes the electrical charge on zinc, which enables zinc to enter the cells where Covid is reproducing and stops the virus.
I just heard the news and heard the tape recoedings of Trump’s Woodward book interviews. Pretty shocking that he knew it was far more deadly than a serious flu case.
