At the beginning of the awareness of the danger in the U.S. there was a huge demand for masks and a short supply and what happened is that we were advised to allow the medical people to have them first.

I am hoping for a vaccine and looking carefully at this regimen used to treat President Trump. The hospital in Ocala claims to have had major success using a similar one.

I think President Trump is extremely ignorant of medical science and I am wondering if like a lot of people he has not had to face first hand cancer or any other frightening medical event. Most of us opine on things without a medical education and years of experience treating people. I cannot tell you how I respect medical science. There are doctors and there are extremely good doctors but they all are on a level above mine. I have heard some dingbats on Youtube with M.D. after their name and Drew Pinksy started the misinformation on Fox in my opinion.

We are left pretty much to our own devices to discern who to listen to. I take medical advice from experts. I take my chances on politicians. Most of them are not great statesmen. Power corrupts and people behave like humans all too often.

Hardly anyone is wild about the election choices and most of us are at least a little bit scared about catching Covid-19 and dying from it.

All of us need to use our common sense and all remember that if you have grandchildren they will cry if you die from this damned bug. Be careful. Be a little paranoid.
