A second wave of the 1918 Spanish flu was devastating. Be prepared for the same thing with the CV19 virus this fall.\u00a0 It’s the reason I keep posting links to businesses that have stuff you may find you need, from corn meal and wheat flour to kitchen utensils and cookware, which I will continue to do.<\/p>\n

From the article:\u00a0\u00a0As of Sunday<\/a>, there were 498,440 confirmed cases in Brazil and at least 28,834 deaths; there are 1,775,125 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the U.S., and 103,906 deaths. Worldwide, there were 6,108,525 confirmed cases and 370,247 deaths, according to Johns Hopkins University.<\/p>\n

Robert Redfield, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,\u00a0told the Financial Times\u00a0<\/a>that he \u201ccan\u2019t guarantee\u201d more stay-at-home requirements in the winter or the fall. \u201cWe are committed to using the time that we have now to get this nation as over-prepared as possible.\u201d – article<\/p>\n

Dr. Fauci indicates that we will have another outbreak in the fall, but we don\u2019t yet have a preventive in the form of a vaccine.<\/p>\n

Where we stand now on development of a CV19 vaccine is at the link below:<\/p>\n

From the article:<\/p>\n

With confirmed COVID-19 cases worldwide surpassing\u00a04.3 million<\/a>\u00a0and continuing to grow, scientists are pushing forward with efforts to develop vaccines and treatments to slow the pandemic and lessen the disease\u2019s damage.<\/p>\n

Some of the earliest treatments will likely be drugs that are already approved for other conditions, or have been tested on other viruses.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople are looking into whether existing antivirals might work or whether new drugs could be developed to try to tackle the virus,\u201d said\u00a0Dr. Bruce Y. Lee<\/a>, a professor at the CUNY Graduate School of Public Health & Health Policy.<\/p>\n

As of May 8,\u00a0three medicationsTrusted Source<\/a>\u00a0had received emergency use authorization (EUA) from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) \u2014 the anti-malaria drugs chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine, the anti-viral remdesivir, and a drug used to sedate people on a ventilator.<\/p>\n

An EUA allows doctors to use these drugs to treat people with COVID-19 even before the medications have gone through the formal FDA approval process. – article<\/p>\n

This is just an update on what news there is so far. It seems odd that just when people are being told ‘Get out in the sunshine again”, many parts of this country erupt into looting and pillaging\u00a0 and destroying businesses.<\/p>\n

That might have happened even without the unfortunate and preventable incident in Minneapolis. The timing seems kind of odd. We get shut down for weeks, then are told “go back to normal”, and riots and destruction begin a very short time later. And everything is shut down again because some people simply can’t behave themselves.<\/p>\n

There must be a message in this.\u00a0 Coincidence? I don’t think so.<\/p>\n

However, the work on a viable vaccine or several vaccines is progressing, and we may have to observe the same precautions toward the end of summer that we’ve been taking since the beginning of March.<\/p>\n

We must be patient.<\/p>\n
