This is not a virus like Ebloa. Get out and enjoy life!

As a great philosopher once said, "its NOT over till its over. If I were a predicting person, I would predict that TV Land gets hit with a CV spike in about Dec 1st because of the snow birds returning and the problems. There WERE only 2 CV deaths in one day recently in Fl. But the day before was 14. The cases in Fl have leveled off at around 3,000 per day. Deaths may be down because of better treatment and experience with the disease (such as keeping patients face down)? Or it could be possible undercounting? Either way, the CV experience can be short of death, but VERY torturous. And you CAN be reinfected and they are finding a good possibility of serious mental and physical long term problems. 30 % of recovering CV victims report long-term MENTAL FOG that prevents them form returning to work and a normal life. So, the big picture on CV is bigger than just a small number of deaths (for now). When you calculate YOUR risk of problems from CV, take ALL factors into consideration. Do not be just a sheep that moves with the HERD of optimism that is being circulated here in La, La TV Land.
