It does not like sunshine, hot weather, or humidity.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.accuweather.com\/en\/health-wellness\/coronavirus-expert-says-the-virus-will-burn-itself-out-in-about-6-months\/679415\">https:\/\/www.accuweather.com\/en\/health-wellness\/coronavirus-expert-says-the-virus-will-burn-itself-out-in-about-6-months\/679415<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Good read, worth a look. Someone who isn\u2019t panicking over this nonsense finally speaks up, even if it was not done officially. This should make the news media panic attackers quite unhappy, because they won\u2019t have swaths of dead bodies to report on.<\/p>\n<p>The issue is with the media. We all know that. They are looking for something that will cause a panic, because that is what they feed on, like some sort of parasitic bug. Well, it ain&#8217;t gonna happen quite the way they hoped it would. No mass graves will appear, no devastating reports of biologicals escaping the lab and infecting wide swaths of population, no hazmat suits all over the place, although one fellow did wear one to board his passenger flight a little while ago.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s another thing: the Covid-19 bug has no consistent incubation period in the people it infects, per news reports. It hides and then makes people sick, and then there&#8217;s cleanup following, but it turns out to be only one person here and there, which means those people are more resistant to it than others.\u00a0 Most of the panicky stuff is stirred and promoted by the media, whereas the NIH and other groups are telling us to use some freaking common sense, and precautions are being taken everywhere.<\/p>\n<p>Mind you, I am NOT downplaying the obvious danger of this bug, but making it clear that it does have a weakness like all cold-weather bug (flu, colds, rhinoviruses, etc.) and if some people are surviving an attack by it, it is possible that the virus is not as fierce as it is alleged to be. If various countries such as Italy are canceling festivals, just as the Saudis have canceled the pilgrmiage to Mecca this year, there is no harm in being cautious, period.\u00a0 If I thought I had been exposed to it, I&#8217;d have the pantry and fridge and freezer stocked well ahead of time, anyway, and tell people to stay away from me.<\/p>\n<p>The Chinese have a real issue because it originated with them, and they don&#8217;t like Bad Publicity about such things, but they&#8217;ve taken appropriate action (even if they fudge the numbers of The Dead).\u00a0 Unfortunately, absence of workers from factories means no goods to ship to the product-hungry crowds in the good old US of A, so Apple&#8217;s phone sales are down and will continue to drop and they can&#8217;t make the excuse that your old phone is slowing down just to sell you the newest model. No phones to sell, no cash in the cash drawer &#8211; that&#8217;s the bottom line.<\/p>\n<p>My God, think what would happen if Starbucks couldn&#8217;t get coffee beans because of a blight fungus of some kind invading the coffee orchards!! The HORROR!!!\u00a0 People would have to drink tea or soda pop or go back to Nescafe instant&#8230;. Or even make their own coffee at home.<\/p>\n<p>Keep you eyes and ears open and take news reports with a grain of salt. This is going to be a very interesting ride for everyone.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The novel corona virus, a\/k\/a Covid-19, per this virus researcher, will burn itself out within a &hellip; <a title=\"A Small Update For You To Chew On\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=96793\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">A Small Update For You To Chew On<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":653,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[213,296],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-96793","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-your-tax-dollars-at-work","category-china"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96793","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/653"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=96793"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96793\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":96794,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96793\/revisions\/96794"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=96793"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=96793"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=96793"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
