Totally my opinion and only written to the extent of my knowledge of the virus and public actions and reactions. Of course, my knowledge is fueled by the controversial media.
The Pandemic … The Virus … COVID … COVID 19
There have been so many videos, broadcasts and updates concerning the above. It has caused people to be cautious, overly cautious, rebellious, hateful and dead.
There have been more than a few reports that nursing homes, hospitals and other healthcare facilities have been putting the virus as the cause of death when it was not. It seems there would have been lawsuits by now … well, I would have filed one. But, then again, we are only given the knowledge that the media wishes to share.
We are kept in denial by media that we trust to give us the latest and greatest news and updates about almost everything. Then there are the tabloid tv news reports. Like the paper tabloids, they twist reports to get the attention.
The Mandala effect also comes into play. Some people get so wrapped up in controversial happenings that they can remember details that were not part of the actual event. With social media so widespread these days, the true and the false are broadcast as if it’s all true. And people repeat it as the truth.
I’ve had people tell me to watch and see the whole thing disappear just as quickly as it appeared. I’ve heard it was actually grown in a lab in the city of Wuhan, China. That hydoxychloroquine and chloroquine used to combat malaria, lupus erythematosus, and rheumatoid arthritis would cure the virus. Bleach injections and drinking bleach would help. None of these things have proven true as of yet.
Fact: there are no drugs currently licensed for the prevention of the virus. However, there is a vaccine being developed, but not in distribution.
