We're testing people by the millions. Others are not.
What so disturbs me is that the United States has roughly 4% of the world's population and 33% of the coronavirus cases. How could this happen????

We're also the only country that can zoom in on zip codes within counties, and see how the disease is spread.
We're also lucky enough to have the only Country where the data collected for the CDC cases Map, are self reported.
I wonder how many Social Justice Warriors are getting extra credit for self reporting.
It's just too neatly wide spread. Even in areas, I know damn well is nothing more than cow pastures.

I was out of sight for almost a day. Perhaps some of you noticed. My level of stress reached an overload. I was suffering from complete mental and physical exhaustion. I went to a friend's house here in Pacifica. He graciously let me use his granny flat to get away from it all. When I got into the flat, I crashed and slept for 16 hours. I needed the rest. Now I'm back home.
This coronavirus epidemic can be described with that old saying:
"These are the times that try men's (and women's) souls."
If you are fortunate enough to be employed (As I am ) you have to work twice as hard for far less money. The probability of a huge financial loss always haunts you as you work. Your mind is always on friends and loved ones. Will they get infected? Will they die an agonizing death? Will they lose their job and lose all?
Fortunately in this group we have had two readers who caught coronavirus. Both survived without a trip to the hospital. People have suffered economic hardships. Fortunately they have had good banks and good landlords who showed understanding and kindness at this bad moment.

I will leave you to reflect on that.
