DA COVID CODE!
This damn virus has infected all of us – with gullibility. Never have we hung on every word, every Forward, every reported way to beat Covid. We watch videos, posted by the self- proclaimed ‘experts’, the jobless, the bored and those simply seeking their two minutes of fame. We hit our pressure points that according to one ‘expert’ activates our immune system and we end up with a sore body just because that idiot on a self- shot video told us it was a sure fire thing.
We are on an immunity enhancing diet which plunges us into a deeper funk than we are already in. I mean a turmeric latte over a good old butt kicking cup of caffeine? Nobody won a battle or a Pandemic war armed with only immunity boosters. Get real folks and stop believing every viral post – we have to beat this delusionary virus more infectious than Covid. I hope when they do crack the vaccine they will also discover an antidote for the herd mentality to boost our brain immunity.
Instead of keeping it simple we twist and complicate every damn thing. When bona fide scientists tell us to wear masks that is when our few remaining brain cells not hijacked by Whatsapp or Tik Tok videos, kicks in and rebels against proven theories. If the diktat had been “Cover your chin and throat with a mask” it might have saved the lives of those rebels whose masks dangle over everything but their nose and mouth…
Life has changed – deal with it. Immunity building has been added as the latest fitness fad – never mind that it has been trumpeted by our grandma’s good old cooking ages ago. Hand sanitizer and soaps have become numero uno in our shopping list toppling hand creams and lipsticks. In addition to a shoe rack, a hat rack, a clothes rack we now have a mask rack – near the front door hangs our designer masks to ensure we do not forget the one accessory more important than house keys, car keys or wallet when you step out of the front door..
How you choose to wear it will determine if your genes are passed on or if Darwin’s law of Evolution or Extinction comes into play. Newton got it bang on with his law – “Every action has an equal or opposite reaction” Mask up and carry on living folks – this is our Brave New World….
