Today I picked up a prescription. The result of last week's telephone appointment with my GP. It was essentially just a run through a questionnaire. One question in particular made me smile; "Do you feel a sense of purpose/achievement in your life?" Which was truly an; "Aww, bless" moment. Britain seems to believe the whole world has been frozen in time for the past 15 years. While they wait for their failed bet to finally pay off. People that delusional should be locked up for their own safety.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-52405243 Hypertension seems to be a key comorbidity for COVID-19. Hypertension is also notoriously racist. Not only is it more prevelent amongst black people. It also seems to have a different cause. In white people hypertension generally stems from the liver. In black people hypertension generally stems from the kidneys. Meaning you have to give people different drugs based on their race. Just in case you were wondering the type of thing I could be getting on with.

Before it attempts to fix everything. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-52360081 I think the contrast in the COVID-19 response between southern EU states such as Italy and northern EU states such as the Netherlands is well known. It seems self-defeating to ask why the EU still hasn't banned 'Turkish' Olive Oil imports. Particularly while try to secure PPE deliveries from Turkey. But then Britain isn't just a nation which believes in the Zombie virus. It also believes the Zombies can be home schooled.

I'm a little bit focused on the idea of a Virtual Eurovision Song Contest. The overwhelming majority of people access it through the website and the app. The running order for the Semi-finals is already set. So maybe we should just do it with the videos on a playlist and public votes on the app. The 'winner' gets and asterix by their name. If the Netherlands want to host it in 2021 they can. If not, we make Belgium do it. Given Eurovision's enthusiastic fandom the EBU might find that it's happening anyway.

https://us.cnn.com/2020/04/15/world/social-distancing-language-change-trnd/index.html Physical/Social Distancing is completely useless in terms of stopping the spread of droplet borne germs. In fact Physical/Social Distancing is actually the experimental method Pasteur used to prove the existance of droplet/airborne germs. Almost 160 years ago. Physical/Social Distancing can be useful in stopping the spread of certain non-droplet borne diseases. Ebola for example. By continuing to even mention it as a solution here the WHO is merely undermining it in its entiriety. They should really be leading efforts to seperate the fantasists from the scientists.

I recently purchased Bluetooth headphones. I say; "Recently." I've only just got used to them asking to be charged in heavily accented English. Yesterday I think I held down the wrong combination of buttons. At the wrong time. Now they're now barking at me in full on Chinese. I like to think of it as all the tiny little sweatshop workers trying to escape. Seriously. The last time I was this stoned I asked my lungs to contract COVID-19. Then I contracted COVID-19. Then I stopped having COVID-19. Disappointing really. I always assumed I was in the top 10%.

In fact these are probably destitute people who died in early February, long before COVID-19 even arrived in New York City. This is simply a political choice that Mayor de Blasio has taken. Just as how Democrats in Puerto Rico made the choice not to distribute aid in the wake of Hurricane Maria. With the intention of boosting their power by creating a humanitarian crisis. If you want to see the true story of COVID-19 you only need to look at the other Cuomo brother. Who, nearly two weeks after contracting the virus, still hasn't had to take a day off work.

For example I don't think any white person has ever suffered from Sickle Cell Anaemia. In return black people suffer far lower rates of Malignant Melanoma. The BCG vaccine isn't one of those. Calcut, Abuja, Managua. It doesn't seem to matter. Apparently it is your distance from a magnetic pole which determines how effective the BCG is as a vaccine against Tuberculosis. As to why African Americans seem to be disproportionately affected by COVID-19. That's more complicated. In 1861 the Republicans launched & won a war to free the slaves. In 1877 the Democrats demanded the resumption of slavery. As the price for Samuel J. Tilden to stop whining about the popular vote.

However the Risk of Ibuprofen causing those symptoms is very low. While the Reward of Ibuprofen relieving inflammation and pain is very high. So Doctors are happy to use Ibuprofen as a medicine.

The solution is apparently always the same.

Likewise if I were a frontline healthcare worker. Being told by a manager to wear the same respirator all day. I would tell that manager to go forth and procreate. In not so many words. I would rather risk going without respirator. Rather than carrying a virus reservoir on my face all day. For frontline healthcare workers though it is a serious risk. They will be hit with a viral load that not even the sickest patient could imagine. Let alone some idiot on the street. For unconscious patients in ventilator beds gas masks may well be a viable alternative. Ideally of the fullface/visor type You keep the mask on and just switch the filter cartridges out.

April 3rd 2020 (3/4/20). I finally ran out of coffee. So had to invoke my VIP pass at the supermarket. My father is legitimately elderly. He also legitimately needs by help shopping. I did really want to see how things are running for normal people during normal hours. Then saw the size of the queues and decided I didn't want it that much. It seems things are smoothing out. Now people have realised that if a supermarket runs out of something one day it's simply going to re-stock overnight. As always the main problem seems to be the government's idiotic social distancing orders. Which large supermarkets are rather compelled to at least pay lipservice to.
