The U.S. surpassed eight million known cases this past week, and reported more than 70,000 new infections on Friday, the most in a single day since July. Eighteen states added more new infections during the past week than in any other during the pandemic.

In Europe, cases are rising and hospitalizations are up. Britain is imposing new restrictions, and France has placed cities on “maximum alert.” Germany (Munich, pictured above) and Italy set records for the most new daily cases. This is the state of the virus around the world.

Considerations for Wearing Masks


CDC recommends that you wear masks in public settings around people who don’t live in your household and when you can’t stay 6 feet away from others.


Masks help stop the spread of COVID-19 to others. This recommendation is based on what we know about the role respiratory droplets play in the spread of the virus that causes COVID-19, paired with emerging evidence from clinical and laboratory studies showing masks reduce the spray of droplets when worn over the nose and mouth.

COVID-19 spreads mainly among people who are within about 6 feet of one another, so the use of masks is particularly important in settings where social distancing is hard to maintain.

Belarusian President Offered $940M by IMF and World Bank to Introduce Quarantine, Isolation & Curfew ‘Like in Italy’

Huge foreign loans are given to sovereign nations by the World Bank, IMF and the likes. But the conditions that come attached to these loans are seldom told by governments to their citizens.

A recent case in Belarus has exposed the conditions laid by these agencies for loans being provided for COVID-19.

The President of Belarus has exposed that the World Bank coronavirus aid comes with conditions for imposing extreme lockdown measures, to model their coronavirus response on that of Italy and even changes in the economic policies which he refused as being “unacceptable”.

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

As many as half of all people who have the virus don’t show symptoms, “so it’s critical to wear a mask because you could be carrying the virus and not know it,” the CDC said. “While a mask provides some limited protection to the wearer, each additional person who wears a mask increases the individual protection for everyone. When more people wear masks, more people are protected.”

The "China virus" aka COVID-19 is slang coined by President Trump and used as a political jab against Chiba and a rallying cry for his remaining supporters.

If you die from COVID-19, the process will not be quick or pleasant and it is game over for you.

Multiple people, even young people are documented as being re-infected by COVID-19.

Many other people who recover from COVID-19 suffer unpleasants symptoms for many months later and will walk around for the rest of their lives with a pre-existing conditions making healthcare more expensive for themselves. They will also for the rest of their lives live with the anxiety of putting other people's health they risk.

The good news for the world is the USA will release a vaccine very soon. Time to get back to normal. I think we can all agree on that.

I supply a Credit Union with over 20 branches and 40 copiers. All non public facing employees have been told to expect to continue to work from home until summer 2021.

No miracle vaccine will be released in 2020.
