Not past 6 or 7.
Toxic, psychotic, self-aggrandizing drama queens simply aren't worth me spending my time on.

CBS Access has a 10 part mini-series re-make in the works I hear.

We're a bit overdue for a biggie..


In 1918 nobody knew what the flu was. Average life expectancy was 54 years. Communication was slow.

Many things are better now if you practice good habits.

In 1918, population density was lower, there were way fewer people, amount of travel was less, and there was no air travel to take infections to all corners of the world within a week.

Absent availability of a useful vaccine, a 1918-style flu today would result in a much bigger problem than even in 1918.

For the 1918 flu, it affected the young and healthy the most.  That is unusual, but one hypothesis is that older people had been exposed to an earlier flu that, while not the same, resulted in partial immunity or at least reduction of effect.

There is a great book on the 1918 pandemic:  Flu, by Gina Kolata.  A great book -- very interesting.

Pandemic, a book by Sonia Shah, predicted the current novel corona virus starting in a wet market in China.

Complications from pneumonia combined with the elderly seem to be the predominate group of fatalities. Isn’t that us here on the bbs? Well get your pneumonia inoculations, they’re paid for by Medicare. Had mine, so more worried the virus will mutate in the western world and impact my kids and grandkids.

The pneumonia is from the novel corona virus, it seems to target the lungs. Pneumonia is caused by various viruses and bacteria. You can only be inoculated for known viruses that have vaccines. So far there is no vaccine for the novel corona virus. Best protection is normal flu prevention practice.

Now that they have been forced to deny it, you know that it has to be true.

Notice how many times he uses the word “true” and notice how all the lines in the graph go up.  Coincidences?  To the uninformed, maybe, or maybe not; but you cannot deny that there is a graph.

I am not here to influence you – just inform you.

You decide.
