Cases are to spike back up...


So here I am talking to a good friend of mine. He is a professor at the local university. We discuss a number of topics and of course one of them is the cov-vid-19 pandemic. 

The seasonal flu is a killer. However, it can be a very silent killer. Lets say you go to the hospital for some minor surgery. Minor surgery from  your bodies point of view is an invasion. Tissues get torn and spaces can be formed when tissues are removed. The body moves in and clears this space, this causes an immune response. 

However, this hospitalization occurred during the flu season. So while you are in hospital, you contract it from a person, or just breathing. Boom, you end up with double pneumonia. Ok perhaps both lungs are not effected but you get the idea.

Locally, we are seeing a few more cases, and it looks like there might have been a super spreader event in the Seoul metro area. I have already said this but I will say it again. We have all likely already been exposed to this virus. My main fear is getting hit with a mutated form. 

My friend sent me a document that shows that the scientific community has not actually isolated the covid-19 virus. It is very likely that this strain is just a mutated form of the common flu virus. Still very dangerous but we do not need these crazy lockdowns. Masks, responsible social distancing, and lockdowns effected areas for about two to three weeks would be better. Millions of people have had their savings wiped out, and are drowning in debt. 

It seems this pandemic will result in people being worse off than before. If a person is debt ridden, they become dependent on the state. In that case they are easier to control. 

Ok time to go!

Walked 32 kms last week, and we did 5.6 kms yesterday!
