Corona Virus Treatment

I've been going shopping as rarely as possible and wearing mask and gloves each time and using antiseptic spray on handles at the supermarket. All the places I go the distancing is strictly adhered to but I only go at wrinklies times and we all seem to have the same fears and keep well apart. In the queue at Sainsbury's everyone was friendly and more than 2 metres apart but there was one younger woman in front of me (the only one I saw in the queue) and when she got to the door she was stopped by a member of staff and asked for her NHS or Carers pass. She said she wasn't in the NHS or a carer so she was asked to leave the queue and either come back at 9 a.m. or she could wait on one of the chairs that were spaced out in the car park.

Trump has been getting stick from his ex chief medical advisor after he was sacked for saying that Trumps idea for taking Chloroquine to kill the virus was rubbish (didn't quite use those words). Bolsonaro (President of Brazil) has just sacked his advisor (forced to resign) for saying the same about him recommending it! Bolsonaro is also saying all shops should open although Brazil's R number is rising. Some of Brazil's state governors are keeping the lock down.

We're allowing one person at a time to come round, to buy plants and look round the garden, whilst keeping at least three metres apart. We're fortunate to be able to do that safely with a completely open side entrance, through the car port, and plenty of room to do distancing. Plants are boxed (boxes are taken from Budgen's discard cages whilst wearing gloves and then isolated for two weeks) and boxes laid on the ground for the people to take. We wear gloves all the time and my gloves are very thin leather (as pliable as cotton) and are washed at the end of the day. I have seven pairs of them so they only get worn once a week. They must be the cleanest gardening gloves ever.

Younger friends also bring shopping for us and that gets quarantined. We're trying our best.

 

The trouble is, clanless, is that Dogs have a habit of sniffing each others Bums, so does this mean they'll be using the Dogs to sniff our Bums

 

I know a cancer sniffing dog. Apparently he has had 100% success.

I was interested to see that in Australia the Customs even have dogs that can sniff out concealed money.

 

I know that dogs are already used for sniffing out cancer, Parkinson's and malaria so they are probably used for other problems as well.

Some pets can also be listed as Emotional Support Animals (ESA) and allowed in the cabins of aircraft.

 

I haven't had time to check the figures (probably won't bother) but I wish they would expand properly on the stats they put out.

They said that about 25% of people that have died of Covid had diabetes. I don't dispute the figure but it's totally misleading just on its own. It doesn't say they died from Covid because of having diabetes.

They also don't say, at the same time, that an extremely large proportion of the population that have died of Covid are elderly and that an extremely large proportion of the elderly have diabetes. Neither do they say that there is any correlation between the two.

I take a bet that a large proportion of the people that have died of Covid had false teeth. This is based on the fact that well over 10 million older people have dentures. I don't think that having dentures has an effect on whether you die of Covid.

 

There shouldn't be any problem as most people have a double layer of masking for farts. Pants and trousers for most people.
