It’s just the flu, bro.
Gyms should be open in Texas on Monday. Cases have actually been climbing slightly in Texas (but still a low number) so I am glad Abbott is ignoring that and opening things up.
Is one good outcome that we will have from this CV fiasco that people will be more aware of vitamin D deficiency? I have heard from our family doctor for years that just a majority of the US is deficient in Vitamin D. All of this talk has inspired me to get sun everyday and to be thankful that I live in Texas where you don’t freeze to death when you go outside.

Ping. Freepmail Impimp to go on the ping list.
Shouldn’t this be day 58?
In Alaska my naturalistic chiropractor recommended I take 5000 units of D all winter. He pointed out that cancer incidences in the public are directly parallel to the latitude. The higher you get the higher the cancer rates.
I miscount all the time - I can true up tomorrow.
It is almost too many days to count. I was hopeful that all states would be fully reopened after the first 2 week lockdown. The cynic in me should have immediately seen that there is a chance in some places these tyrants will be locking down (partially at least) people for years.
Looking forward to more of Texas opening up on Monday. On the other hand, not thrilled with the news that Musk has Austin picked as one of the “finalists” for relocating Tesla. I hope he picks Tulsa.

I dunno. Ask Kojak. He enjoys counting.
“people will be more aware of vitamin D deficiency”
*We are more indoors than ever before.
*We have been told for a couple of decades that any exposure to sunlight will cause immediate death from skin cancer.
*We eat a worse diet than at any time in modern history.
*Our population has the lowest percentage of white people ever.
*Our population is fatter than ever before.
*Our population is older than ever before.
These factors all add up to Vitamin D deficiency. Even if it’s not the cause for anything directly related to COVID-19 (it probably is), it’s still not a good thing.
In before Kojak and Piss boy.
Most of us unfortunately spent much of our lives Vitamin D deficient because for decades “government health experts” told us that any more than 400 units per day would kill us.

Interesting. Once read about a study which showed people living at higher elevations, such as Denver, had lower incidences of cancer. Somewhat counterintuitive as one gets more UV radiation at higher altitudes, but then you get more sunlight, which produces more natural vitamin D.
Yeah, but he has his head up his arse.

“It’s just the flu, bro.”
Tens of thousands of Americans dead in weeks due to a ChiCom Virus escaped out of a bio lab.
As President Trump said, “this is not the flu.”
But here we have a pimped thread for ignorance. SMH.
I call it the Kojak Colonoscopy.
If you and Kojak were right bodies ought to be piling up in the streets of Georgia like cordwood right now.
Your statistics prove that it is a flu, a sever one but not the worst flu.
He’s playing a Clintonesque word parsing game.
It’s not the flu because structurally a coronavirus is different from a flu virus.
We’ve actually had flus that have killed MORE people.
Good morning McFrog, no I disagree.
Florida for example has done a very good job of protecting its vulnerable population of seniors.
We have sufficient data to know who is vulnerable, seniors and those with underlying illnesses: hypertension, diabetes, obesity, etc.
Hopefully, the ChiCom Virus has done its worst. It was never “the flu” and the stats about flu mortality were always made up; nothing but estimates.
So the entire concept of “it’s just the flu bro” is beyond ignorant. It’s utterly moronic.
We need to move forward now as a nation, protect the elderly and the high risk, not quarantine the healthy.
But we don’t need to be abject morons by mouthing “it’s just the flu bro.” Stupid!
