    Yet another article supporting Glenn's theory. Eye Doctors now saying tears can carry the virus hence don't rub your eyes and touch stuff. Watch out for pink eye …..etc. it's just going to keep goin like this. Before you know it, we'll each be issued a capsule to seal ourselves in after which we'll be plugged into a central life support system i.e.. Matrix i.e.. we'll be human batteries for the machines...…sorry but even though I do really take this serious , enough disinformation and speculation is enough. It seems the symptoms now are endless save for the core basic ones first issued by the CDC. which still seem to be the most solid approach so far. A person could go mad second guessing. So if you pick your nose and it's green and funky it could be ……………………………..

    It could be as simple as being a brand new never before dealt with virus recommendations change as more becomes actually known about it. No vast conspiracy there.

    For most of us we live in a reality where you get sick or don't feel good you get a pill and you be right as rain. Sure everyone knows someone who's fighting a serious condition like Cancer and many do die from it but folks don't dwell on it.

    So this new disease sweeps across the planet and folks are forced to come to terms with this new reality. Some simply deny it or minimize it or brush it off in religious terms and some overreact. Many are being forced to accept the fact there is no pill or shot or cure for this new disease and it will be some time before we even know what makes it tick. Right now with all our fancy advanced technology we are no better then some Shaman or Witch Doctor in some far off land. We have a tiger by the tail and he will take us all for a ride.

    I don't want to bring politics into this however just in general terms the lack of leadership and incompetence being show by some of our leaders in the U.S is beyond belief and many will die because of it. After this is over a lot of folks will have blood on their hands.

    thebigspendur is absolutely correct. It is, however, difficult to
    exclude politics from the discussion because both the cause and
    the response to this pandemic involves the entire community...
    and that, by definition, is politics.

    I think that the best we can do at this point is to make informed
    decisions, based on information that we receive from reliable
    primary sources: the medical pro's, public health officials, and
    even a few responsible political leaders. In other words, those
    amongst us who are devoted to the truth of the matter.

    Good luck to us all. If you don't believe in luck,
    then wash your hands...often.

    Sorry wasn't really trying to imply any conspiracy just pointing out how bad this game of media telephone is getting. I should not have used the Matrix as an embellishment point. Just saying fear is a strong force. All sorts of speculation out there and people will flock too it. My bad.

    Everyone has an agenda.

    The book How to lie with statistics is a good starting point.
