"I think the lefties and lefty technology hubs will do absolutely everything in their power to create the impression of complete disaster ..."

If that is their plan, I think they are moving too soon.

I suspect that by election day we will know very well just what to expect from this virus. My wife and I are in our seventies and not in the best of health. We both stay vaccinated for pneumonia and flu.

I'm a bit of a history buff and find that I have lived during a relatively safe time in a very safe place. Life is not like this for many people in many places. It's important for sensible people to remember that.

Outside of our borders this is a very real thing. The Chinese aren’t throwing a wrench into their economy for show or for our benefit. It is killing people in big enough numbers to scare them into some extreme measures.

There’s evidence that this virus is more dangerous to those of Asian extraction. It has to do with ACE2 receptors. It’s possible that we will experience milder cases, but it’s also too early to know. The vaccines for flu and pneumonia are a wise decision, Covid-19 is another lung disease
