We’re currently in hard lock down,
here in Victoria, Australia. Being an
island we initially had the virus just
about eliminated, with citizens
returning from overseas put up at
hotels for a mandatory two week
quarantine, at taxpayer’s expense.
By June, many of these stragglers
still returning from Corona hotspots
4 months into a pandemic, brought
the virus back with them. The idea
of hotel quarantine should work …
unless the security guards, with no
training, contracted from bogus fly
by night private security companies,
HAVE SEX WITH THE RETURNEES!
Obviously it must get rather boring
locked up in a hotel room for two
weeks, for both the returnees and
those paid to guard them. So now
we are experiencing a second wave
down under (no pun intended 😎).
True story, Liz. The government has
even launched an official inquiry
into the whole fiasco.
Oh, my God. How could anyone be so stupid? What this pandemic has shown me is that the stupidity of the human race knows no bounds. I am so sorry to hear that the virus is back among you after the country had gotten it under control. Unbelievable.
You will not fear the terror of night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
nor the plague that destroys at midday.
A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
You will only observe with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.
If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,”
and you make the Most High your dwelling, no harm will overtake you,
no disaster will come near your tent.
I will take my chances with said virus. I don’t want the poisonous concoction from the needle. A very close friend of mine got it…early, like in February. He is an engineer, an executive and a world traveler. After calling in all of the company’s engineers from across the globe, he came down with it and gave it to his wife. He said “It’s a flu bug…just like all the other flu bugs we’ve had.” And, we are all in our middle 50s. Flu is always deadly to the elderly and those with co-morbidities. And, there are flu shots given out every year. I never got one of those and I won’t get this one, either. He said the same.
We get flu bugs every year and 1000s die. All of a sudden, everyone has to become a mask zombie? All of a sudden we have to destroy businesses? All of a sudden everyone is in lockdown, even the healthy? Sorry but, this ain’t the Spanish Flu and it sure as hell ain’t the Black Plague.
If there is to be a vaccine to pass around, can we fill the vial with common sense? Millions need that.
Apologies, Vic. Many comments
swallowed by the Spam Monster?
Just working my way through a
mountain of them.
As someone once said, common
sense ain’t that common 😎
I tend to be a target for the SPAM police. Usually, it’s because I use a lot of links, which the SPAM cops don’t like. In this case, too many words? Who knows. WP is extremely hinky…and fickle.
