Greetings my incabinate amigos. Numbers of infected have grown to over 161,000 and the government continues to sleepwalk through a nightmare in progress. Today our What?-Me-Worry? governor issued a stay-at-home declaration for southeast Florida. Half-measure like this serve more to spread the contagion rathe than put a lid on it. When I watch the President give yet another self-serving briefing in which he rambles that coronavirus might be a flu or a bacteria, or a virus and then decides "no one really knows what it is", I recognize that the captain of the Titanic is more interested in getting to New York in record time than getting there at all. Happily many of the governors are acting responsibly.
We are at the end of the first 15 day social distancing exercise. Too bad our beaches and river were jammed with spring break's besotted battalions. Our problem is now returning home bringing the pandemic in their luggage. In times when the systems that are supposed to protect us from the irresponsibility and dangerous behavior of other but fail to do so, we must do our best to protect ourselves. We are now getting hints that they want us to wear masks in public. There are no masks to purchase as the production of these items does not seem sufficient to keep the first responders and medical care staff protected. I recommend to each of you, build your own masks. Minimally they will help hold in a sneeze of cough from the wearer. Also, making your own protection will make you feel like positive steps are happening.
We are doing okay on the health front (97.7). Our little Yorkie is having issues and will be getting an ultrasound this week. I will go out to drop him at the veterinarian and retrieve him when they have done his tests. We are foregoing obtaining groceries for the next two weeks. Please stay in as much as you can. I know my mother needs a short ride in the car once a week. We maintain our linked homes. I only go to her home and when we take her out, she goes to mine. When you have to go out, wear your mask, maintain social distances, and disinfect the hell out of you and everything when you return home. Be safe my friends and take care of one another.
