<\/a>Most insane image that has crossed my Facebook page about COVID 19 and Jesus. Mother Nature and Jesus. So many questions, like why does she have \u201cGame of Thrones\u201d Kaleeshi hair?<\/p>\nNancy Campbell of Above Rubies<\/a> is busy ordering everyone not to have fear over this. Here are her words on why you should not have fear, dumb anecdotal ideas.<\/p>\n I think back to a couple of incidents when raising my children. Back in those days there were no vaccinations for every childhood disease that came along. When I was a child, we all got the measles, the chicken pox, and mumps, etc. It would go through the family and then we all be fine, set for life. The same happened with my children. They all got each of the diseases as it came around the neighborhood or city. We got through it and once again they were set for life.<\/em><\/p>\n I remember one time I heard that the measles (or one of them was going around) and I got into a state of fear (I think I may have been pregnant, and fear came upon me!). Because I got into this state of fear, what I feared came upon me, and all the children came down with \u201cthe dreaded lurgi.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Another time, I truly don\u2019t know how it happened, but I didn\u2019t even know this particular epidemic was going around. I found out later that the children of all the families around had been sick. Because I didn\u2019t know, I didn\u2019t fear and merrily went about my daily life. And not one of the children came down with the epidemic.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n This is not how infectious diseases work. Not at all! Ignorance is not bliss. Not knowing will not stop you from contracting an illness.\u00a0 Infectious illnesses are not stopped in their spread by you\u00a0 not knowing about them or acknowledging them. This COVID 19 is more of a danger than many childhood illnesses.<\/p>\n \u201cThe dreaded lurgi\u201d is a term used by a British satirical group The Goons starring Spike Milligan back in 1954 to refer to some fictitious outbreak of a cold or flu. Easily caught, easily recovered from. COVID 19 is not lurgi.<\/p>\n But Nancy\u2019s thinking of expose everyone and it will be no worse than a cold is what is sweeping through the Republican party right now. Our own president Donald Trump<\/a> briefly mentioned on Monday that he wanted to reopen places within a few weeks spiraled yesterday into his insistence that churches will be filled with happy, grateful, people on Easter Sunday<\/a>, a mere 3 and 1\/2 weeks away.<\/p>\n President Trump on Tuesday said he hopes the nation\u2019s dramatic response to the coronavirus<\/a> pandemic will be scaled back within weeks to revive the economy and pack churches by Easter Sunday \u2014 an aspiration that was largely panned by public health experts and many elected leaders, including Republicans.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n He repeated this pie in the sky fantasy again and again and again during the daily press conference, and could clearly be seen embracing another awful thing, the insistence by Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick and others,<\/a> that the elderly and ill dying off would not be a bad thing, that the elderly and the ill would gladly trade their lives for the restarting of the economic engine of America, the stock exchange.<\/p>\n \u201cOur people are full of vim and vigor and energy. They don\u2019t want to be locked into a house or an apartment or some space,\u201d Trump said. \u201cIt\u2019s not for our country, and we are not built that way.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n People over money.<\/p>\n Besides, some of these big businesses, I\u2019m looking at you cruise lines,\u00a0 aren\u2019t even U.S. taxpayers. Did you know that all the big cruise lines register their boats through places like Malta and Liberia to avoid U.S. taxes? They also hire non U.S. citizens so that they do not have to pay standard wages, give any sort of benefits, or even simply provide a safe working environment.<\/p>\n Rant over. I am going outside for the day as far away from social media and the television as I can get in my limited sphere. I\u2019m getting disgusted with the powers that be. It\u2019s getting harder and harder not to pull out voodoo dolls and sharp pins.<\/p>\n Stay in touch!
