Good ones John...

Has anyone noticed how TP rolls are getting smaller in Width & OD, & bigger on the hole thru the roll. Yet the price remains unchanged or lately increased.

Hang on guys. No panic.
As soon as the big uncles at the very top share our money among themselves, everything will end.

I can answer this.
Since people have gotten themselves so worked up with the panic, if anyone sneezes anywhere in a crowd - about 10 people will crap themselves.

On a Serious Note;

I have seen info on this 3 different places where they are using an existing Eblola developed drug to see if it could help.
Remdesivir GS-5734
The results so far looked Very Promising for a quick turn around in Patients showing the advanced symptoms.
They showed a conversation with a gentleman given the drug and let him explain his experience as it unfolded.
Very interesting and factual.
It is a small tablet that sells for approx. 35 cents each at this time.
There have been other comments on this drug that it could be a real breakthrough if approved for Corona, but would be limited in the beginning until they could ramp up production.
It sounds like a better solution then a Vaccine for now, and it is already in the pipeline.

Seeing this sure got my attention.

I noticed that yesterday on the evening news, hopefully this will work and turn this around! It seems that several people have been out there not aware they had the virus and that seems just so, Steven King to me, very scary, but we must keep our wits about us and work through this logically.
We will , and we must be determined to, not simply hoping to.

On the news tonight, they filmed colledge kids on Florida beach Spring Break partying.
They talked to a couple of them & the kids said: "hey if I get the virus I get it, I'm gonna still party..

Young & Dumb. They don't realize they could get it & heading home & get others sick along the way & at their homes.

Silverfox- I hope that medicine works.
