Yes. Gotta keep a science mind about all this - a real science mind. The decline in new cases without question coincides with the wider adoption of vaccines. But that is, absent of other evidence, mere coincidence. Of course, the clinical trials did show a reduction in risk of serious illness so I don’t rule it out. But it’s all just a snapshot in time at the moment. Summer is here. More people outdoors. More sunlight.

And now, they are telling people who have been vaccinated they don’t need to get a covid test. That, plus in general fewer people are being tested. So of course the new infection rate numbers will be lower just from these new policies. It may be related to vaccines or it may just be statistics. Of course, assuming the vaccines do reduce risk of death and hospitalization (which they seem to do) that is a good thing. What’s the price to be paid, yet to be determined. Hopefully nothing. Seems to me they are betting that most people will get infected, and the vaccines are meant to keep symptoms in check and maybe reduce disease contagion.

I’m a high risk candidate. I hang out with a bunch of people at church. Almost all of them have gotten COVID. To my knowledge I haven’t gotten it but of the people I hang with, I’m probably the most vulnerable. Everyone in my circle of friends had very mild symptoms and got over it.

I take Quecetin, zinc, vitamin C, vitamin D and I wash it down with quinine water. I also eat a diet high in fruits and vegetables and fish oils. I haven’t been sick a day since this pandemic started and I haven’t been careful at all. I don’t wear a mask around people and I only wear it if I have to go into a store that requires it.

Treatment and prevention have never been clinically tried. Why? Because there’s no money in it. Everything I take is readily available at most stores that sell vitamins. I have to order the quercetin, but there’s hundreds of suppliers.
