What Covid did to me: 1. Lung damage and have to take supplemental O2

2. I have to take BP meds daily to keep my heart rate in a safe range.

3. Lost some control of body temperature. I regularly and randomly drop to 95.x

4. I developed hidradenitis suppurativa under both my armpits. Yuck, and ugg.

5. Just found out today I may have develop diabetes due to Covid, or the steroids needed to save my life.

6. Crushing fatigue every day.

7. Covid brain fog/dementia

It is hard for me to even see a way forward to work. I may very well be facing permanent disability.

Hard to account for USPS and hacking that leaves little to no trace

I am pretty certain the RGV was hacked in Texas and no one will ever investigate because of where it happened and the level of pandemic there

ES&S with those hackable modems were also used in Miami-Dade

This is the correct answer... older people are absolutely terrified/terrorized by what's going on...

I am a native Floridian (my parents still live there) and I saw this first hand when I visited just before this latest spike.

I will even go out on a limb and say Florida is already lost to Trump by 2-5%.

Book mark the prediction.

US Economy Contracts 37% in 2nd Quarter per IMF

This is equal to all of 1929-33 in a single quarter.

And people on DU were poopooing me yesterday when I said this election's closest equivalent is 1932

Corrected myself: this # gets us all the way to 1933

Texas is hiding negative test numbers (hiding data)

Yet another state has begun hiding crucial data for the re-opening process:

DSHS recently informed county health departments that NEDSS will no longer share negative test results, so that county health departments can focus on managing positive cases. As a result, the quantity of negative test results will decrease substantially.

https://princetonherald.com/2020/05/23/collin-county-lists-5-new-covid-19-cases/

I don't know if this has been widely reported yet... Just a nugget picked from the local paper daily Covid-19 report.

We need a commitment from Biden to appoint a Special Prosecutor to investigate Trump and his Admin

The total disregard for the rule of law needs to be addressed and their needs to be a thorough investigation of the criminal activities known and unknown at this point.

Ordinarily, I would say this is a bad idea, but these are extraordinary times.
