FACTS:
The reason Italy has been hit so hard is because they have the oldest population in Europe, and those elderly Italians aren't exactly social media butterflies that know what's going on in the world. That's why this flu spread so quickly in Italy, and the death toll is so high. All 16 special COVID-19 hospitals have shut down in China because there aren't enough new cases of COVID-19 to justify the cost. The media hardly reported this. The reason COVID-19 cases in America have skyrocketed in the past week is because we're TESTING for it now, so of COURSE cases will go up. The vast majority of cases resulting in death are due to people with underlying health issues. Elderly people have ALWAYS been at risk when they contract the flu or pneumonia. Been that way since the dawn of time. Nothing is different with this flu virus. Estimates say that 50 million of us may have already been exposed to the COVID-19 virus and we didn't even know it. It may have been nothing more than a slight cough, a sneeze, and by the next day all is well because your body fought it off. When the H1N1 epidemic broke out in 2009, we didn't have mass panic, we didn't close schools, we didn't shut down businesses, we didn't self quarantine. The official CDC states that from April 12, 2009 to April 10, 2010, there were 60.8 million cases, 274,000 hospitalizations, and 12,469 deaths in the U.S. Why no panic back then? Here's a chart from the CDC (Center For Disease Control) on the COVID-19 outbreak, and how many people died of the flu/pneumonia in 2018. So STOP overreacting, STOP clicking on every biased 'doom and gloom' media story bent on destroying America, our way of life, and our economy.

The reason why there was no panic during the H1N1 epidemic in April 2009 was because the country was already in panic mode due to The Great Recession. That was what the media was covering and that was what the Fed was responding to.
You have to look at where we were right before the CV19 pandemic hit: Record unemployment low Record stock market high Full recovery of the housing market Everything was roses, waterfalls and rainbows. The only thing on the minds of Americans and in the media was the 2020 election. So maybe now you can understand when it all turned upside down literally overnight. |

Spotted this story online today...folks are putting their Christmas lites back up to take away the darkness of this virus.
Americans rehanging Christmas lights to light darkness of coronavirus https://www.foxnews.com/lifestyle/am...of-coronavirus Now I know why we didn't take down our tree at the farm in the Adirondacks...it is on a cold porch and still is as fresh as when it went up on Christmas eve. Hope the tree helps drive away this terrible virus. Be safe...stay strong...don't panic ![]() ![]() -wilma

It's a little 3 foot Christmas tree we bought at Target. Came with lights already strung (of course we added more). Growing up Jewish I was always envious of my non Jewish friends around Xmas time that had these big beautiful Christmas trees with all the lights and razzle dazzle. All we had was the Menorah. Very plain in comparison. And it's working! The living room isn't as dark now and two of my stocks made big gains today. Do something to add a little light or joy into your lives . . . do it NOW. The result is very calming. |

The governor from California just announced that 56% of the people in California or 25 million people will get the coronavirus. Tell me that isn’t creating mass hysteria! that is ridiculous for a leader to be saying those types of things. What stats support that?
