Exactly. This will happen again and there is no telling when. Could be another hundred years, could be next year.
The good news is because this pandemic will touch the lives of every human being on earth, better safeguards will be put in place. Politicians will demand changes. The World will wake up.
This pandemic is nothing to minimize. The losses will be great. But there’s nothing preventing a much more severe pandemic from birthing after this one. We’re “lucky” this is a wake up call and not nearly as bad as it could be.
Zoonotic diseases can crossover anywhere there is contact between animals and people. Avian flu has come from chickens. Shutting down wet markets is a good idea that may not significantly decrease the risk of zoonotic transmission.
MERS came from camels. In the Middle East they are pets, food, milk sources etc. Mad cow came from bovines.
Nature will always find a way. (Or we could give up all meat-ha!)
SARS (10%),MERS (35%), Ebola (25-90% ave 50%) were all way more deadly than Covid. But they didn’t transmit. The current pandemic will have loss of lives in order of magnitudes greater than those or Avian flu.
Even though “it’s not as bad as the flu”.
Hopefully this will wake people up that being physically fit is extremely important. It's not just about looking good. It's about health and the bodies ability to fight off an infection, virus, etc.
God bless you for paying for a TV for those patients! Kudos to you!
@2ez what is this prone stuff? You mean sitting the patients up not laying down? I can only relate to prone positions in handling dumbbells lol.
I'm hearing mixed reports of re-infections, My local news has stated that when/if a person is reinfected, issues are less or not as impactful to the said infected person. But you are stating that reinfections are worse. That's the issues with this new virus...and i go to CDC.gov and no details on this there.
I've been trying to hammer this into people for years. Just need the right nail I suppose. Side note: Looking good also makes you feel good, thus relieving stress in the process.
I hope so. People do not realize just how bad off they are until something happens. We have a huge safety net being in civilized society. Sometimes that net rips... Now we are depending on ourselves.I think this will change some people's minds. I'm sure not everyone will realize this but those on the fence and just needed that nudge... just got a push instead and I think they'll make the leap.
