As stories of young people infected by COVID-19 being placed on ventilators -- or worse -- continue to multiply in news headlines and on Twitter feeds, officials are faced with the dire task of getting the message through to the younger generations.

For weeks, young Americans have been instructed to practice social distancing, stay home, and to cancel Spring Break plans as the nation aims to stifle the spread of COVID-19.

But somewhere along the line, the message seems to have been lost.

No, of course not. As with any disease, statistics are accurate for those who are tested. Everything beyond that is conjecture. For those who have tested positive, worldwide, the fatality rate for ages 10-19 is 0.2%. That is very high.

The Democrats tried to kill off young people and addicts with illegal worldwide opioids but Trump took that issue on. When the laced opioids didn’t work they went with a virus.They are so desperate at this point they know this is the Pelosi swan song.

Really? Just the youth? Here’s a WuFlu and enemedia reflection that I’m sure you all will quickly relate to. There are or course not enough hours in the day to review the outright lies that government and enemedia has told over just the past year. For me, it has gotten to the point where if I hear something from the government and media (DemonRats and CNN), that’s my gauge to know that I should believe the opposite…. And thus the only way to deal with this is to go back to original sources (something which fortunately we can often do in the world of internet).

So against that backdrop of government and media lying constantly, this time they want me to believe them….. because this time it’s SERIOUS?

Does this mean that I’m paying no attention and being reckless with health issues for me and those at least 6 feet around me? Nope… this is just a statement on how it’s easy to understand those for whom ‘ the message seems to have been lost’ and why my middle name is skeptic.
