    Notice as this seems it might start tapering off and there is scrutiny and now states AG's are investigating and charging? We have heard stories of people that had appointments for testing and did not get tested but they still received notifications of testing positive and now 2 years later looking into it. So much BS. Also my wife's heart issue happens a lot more than is being reported this is from front line medical professionals in ER's and Cardio departments.

    No, but I have seen Outbreak, 12 Monkeys, 28 Days / sequels, and every Planet of the Apes.

    Update, allegedly all 100 monkeys are accounted for and 'the CDC continues to provide technical assistance to local authorities."

    Monkeys never liked their music or the show.

    Careful, gloating is also one of the symptoms :lol:

    Glad to hear the wife is doing better and hopefully she continues to improve to the point it is no longer a concern.

    Why would you need to continue to provide assistance if you had the monkeys rounded up... /foilhat

    no joke, they are also advising local residents to monitor and report any 'cold-like symptoms'.
    Several locals stopped to help at the scene, and some described opening the crates.

    2022 sucks !!!! Some may remember me posting how my brother and I had to get mom to the ER. They ran tests, x-rayed her lungs and said they were fine. Her vitals were fine but she did test positive for covid. Told us there was nothing they could do so take her home. After a few days she said she felt worse and had a rattle in her chest. Pat took her back to the ER and they found a blood clot in one lung. They wanted to send her to another hospital with an ICU. Took them 1.5 days to find one as all were full. When they finally got her to Fargo, she had another blood clot in her other lung. They were treating her and giving her oxygen through the nose and seemed to keep her oxygen level up 94 and 96 %. Things looked good but then took a turn for the worse, Her oxygen level dropped to 80 and they had to switch her to a mask to force more oxygen in when she breathed. They called in a lung specialist, He found severe scaring in her lungs from the covid. There was nothing they could do for her but keep her as comfortable as they can. We got to see her, which was the only good thing so we could spend time with her. Today she passed away.

    How I had wished we would have pushed for them to keep her in the hospital after the first ER trip although I don't know if it would have made a difference. Just seems like we failed her when she needed us most. Sucks !!

    Woke HR departments will be the death of many businesses. Better warm up your pronouns too!

    And these numbers have minimally changed since prior to vaccine availability. The issue is WHO is impacted by covid…mainly the obese, elderly, and people with comorbidities. Healthy people, almost regardless of age, are at little serious risk from covid. There are outliers and it sucks, but that’s with anything.
