Corona Virus Treatment

That makes sense. All intensively populated towns. Scenes of my childhood,

Over here in Ireland the Gardai threw out 60 young folk from a house party in Waterford. There is a situation in Cork with the same problem.

We have also had a surge in Sligo, A family who had got stranded in Iraq at the start of all this managed with the easing of rules to get home.

 

I think it's obvious why, but you mustn't say it.

 

Sometimes it is best if you don't have insurance ...

2 friends were tested for COVID. One bill was $199. The other? $6,408. | Boston.com

My nephew had a burst appendix in Florida and the hospital charged his insurance $160,000!

 

A bit like getting your car repaired after an accident.
"is it an insurance job"
Yes,
Rubs hands together, charge what they like similar to rip off vets.

 

I bet the $199 was far more of a disaster to a poor man though.

 

But he wasn't a poor man and the lady's premiums went up because of it. My long-term friends in Tennessee, both in their mid/late 70s pay over $700 a month for this kind of insurance ... a total ripoff to me. That is why so many do without insurance there now ... as my nephew does.

Every month we put by the amount private insurance would cost and can afford to go privately if we so choose. Sometimes one may not want to go SNS/NHS. I have used both here.

 

Quote from Oxford brainiac:

“We’re very happy that we’re seeing the right sort of immune response that will give protection, and not the wrong sort,”

AstraZeneka are flat out making the vaccine.

Come on Oxford - the virus is rampaging through Brazil and India - we really need it...

 

Been catching up with local news; we are hurtling out of lockdown at an alarming speed. The Volunteer schemes are giving way to tourism etc. Thankfully my supply lines were in place way before covid hit. Our small area was doing over 50 shops a week and now down to 12.

 

Here I go again. Thinking, wondering. Perhaps there should be a health warning. 'Thinking and Wondering can damage your health'

Jokes aside. As we have seen recently, due to perhaps personal fears people have forgone visiting the GP surgery etc. This has bought about online consultations etc. No problems with this, as any attempt to stem or avoid covid-19 has to have some merits.

Now my tiny brain is asking. Could this be a new step into future medical consultations. For me. To agree to a medic checking me over. I have no qualms. Perhaps for some, if not many. Perhaps visiting the surgery and say. Doc! I've got this rash or whatever down below. This can be a real stopper for some. Now, with the computer and the i-phone etc. The GP can ask to see the area. This I can understand to be a great relief. However many medical diagnosis involve touching. Does that hurt etc.

In general. I am inclined to think that this techno consultation will become a futer practice. It will do away with the waiting room where many are coughing their lungs up etc. Online the GP may ask to see the spot/area. so you move the camera. No probs'

 

There seems to be a lot of them.

 

No I meant a lot of Andrew Lawrence's
I've never used Twitter so not worked it out yet.
