#3 From my new book, How to Die Young from Coronavirus:
1) Get leukemia first.
2) Die.
3) Journalism.

#4 Please back off, grom. This isn't a pissing match. No one's attacking you. Have a drink today. Enjoy some fresh air.

Maybe you're right, maybe I'm right, maybe we're both wrong. None of us really knows, and the world will little note what any of us says now about this.

Frankly, I just care about my family. I'm happy to be wrong if it helps them.

Peace,
L.

#5 but also leukemia

Gee, think that should be mentioned somewhere before the last word of the report.

Whatever the sickness is or is not, selling Wuhan Tickets this way is part of the problem.

#6 Bullshit articles like this are why anyone who is a bit hypochondriac, has allergies, skittish, or wants to be flu chic will flood hospitals for testing and use up whatever kits are available and at the same time bring whatever their vector is into the hospitals.

I want to know how to do things myself/crew served recovery room because it will quickly become "If you aren't sick yet, visit a hospital."

What do we need here? IV and fluid, lung steroid, liquid nutrition? Get the daughter on the sewing machine and start making masks and mittens?

#7 Socialized Medicine in action. Death Panels. Obviously he did not pass their Criteria for Access. Do you think they just tell people to go home and die? When HC is a "right" and everyone expects it, you can't simply outright declare to the person's face that they won't be treated - that lacks european sophistication. What you do is create plausible deniability.

To the the authors credit, at least he did disclose the preexisting condition.

#8 Leukemia huh? Nice of them to mention that. Just another bullshit formatting of an article to induce panic rather than impart information.

#9 Couldn't agree with you more, swksvolFF.

As for the Leukemia, that blows up your immune system anyway. Wonder if the young man even knew he had it.

I try not to hate nothing but hatred, but I swear that journalists are getting on my last nerve.

#11  Get the daughter on the sewing machine and start making masks and mittens?

Do that. This article links to directions and a how-to video.

#12 Thank you TW.
Looks like Home-Ec credit to me.

Shoot, I think even I could do that, but I bet it ain't no 20 minutes and will look like a horror film.

Rifle cleaning = shop credit? Starting to get a bit fired up about home schooling.
