Grandma

Grandma is not afraid of dying.  She is afraid she will never see her grandbabies again, because her fucking Governor prohibits it, and prohibits any policies which would make it possible in the next six months, during which she may well die of something else entirely.

We need to open up, at least those under 55, and do it now.  If Herd Immunity cannot be obtained, at least our individual immune systems will be maintained.  The longer we lock down, the more dangerous the common cold becomes.

And I wonder: do we carry permanent antibodies to the cold, or do we simply fight it off continually?  I suspect the latter.  And if that is the case, that is the only long term solution to COVID.

Thank you China.  Fucking assholes.  Although it may be us too.  It may be Fauci and others, as alleged.  This may be our virus, that they simply let loose.  It might be as reasonable to call this the Deep State Virus as the China or Wuhan Virus.

But we may never, ever be as safe again as we were. 

To this should be added, though, that Farr’s Law seems to apply to all epidemics.  They may come through repeatedly, but each one has a beginning, a crescendo, and an eventual end.  That is how it always works.  Even HIV was like that, although the curve crossed a decade or more.
