Covid 19 Models

To anyone with any kind of common sense knows that the model used to shut the world down was not only flawed, but possible corrupt in the implication.  The Imperial College researchers ran a model that projected more than 500,00 deaths in Great Britain, and 2 million deaths in the U.S. as a result of Covid-19.  I distinctly remember hearing our President at a news conference state, that in the next two weeks the US would suffer over 200,000 deaths.  That briefing occurred about a month ago.  It never came close to that morbid number as I and many others knew.  Just as with Global Warming models that  are always shewed to cause fear and alarm.  Will justice come to those who caused the shutdown over flawed models?  Not sure that could be done, but at the very least questions should be asked and answered.  I am not holding my breath.  Un elected bureaucrats seem to lead a charmed life where none are held accountable.  Misery is not their problem,  Being the smartest egg head in the room is.

Latest Numbers from Italy Prove Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx Are Needlessly Destroying US Economy

If the CDC really wanted to reach herd immunity they would open the schools and allow working age Americans back to work. They could save the seniors from the deadly coronavirus.

Stock Market

During this whole crisis of the China flu, I have been most concerned for the dramatic drop in the market.  People have lost lots of their retirement money.  Myself and my wife included.  This might seem to be a callous thought, but we do all we can to be safe with our health.  Sanitize and distance ourselves and eat healthy etc.  We do that and fell safe, at least that we have done all we can.  Put the rest in God’s hand and go on.  But this market is destroying peoples lives.  I’m too old to wait long for the market to rebound.  My thoughts were that sometime during the next 4 years we were getting out and putting our money in a safe place.  Sooner rather than later.  But now… lots of baby boomers, especially those of us who are younger than most boomer are in a bad situation.

We will survive,  not what we planned but ok.  God will provide and we are good, but some will be devastated.  In the back of my mind I still have this nagging thought that none of this should or needed to have happened.  Is this really that bad to need draconian measures?  Only time will tell.

Be safe everyone.  Trust in the Lord.  We will survive.
