Dear Friends,
It seems to me, this Covid 19 “pandemic” is as overly hyped as it is a flash in the pan. Simply put covid 19 is a form of the common cold, a coronovirus, at least it is in the same family. We all know what happens to the common cold once warm weather hits… it goes away. I predict Covid 19 will as well. Once June and July get here the cases will fall off the table. In the meantime it is a very effective weapon the media that calls itself unbiased Is using against the Trump administration. The pandemic scare has shaved better than ten percent from the stock market, which makes the democrats ecstatic. Their politicization of this disease, shows their absolute lack of human heartedness, and duplicity. Such people belong behind the operating end of a mop, not at the levers of power.
The Covid 19 disease may or may not be from a bio weapons lab in Wuhan China, or it may be from a bat, who knows, and furthermore, who cares? It is not as deadly as SARS was, and the Trump administration has taken unprecedented steps to control it’s outbreak in the US. Unlike the EU, where the boarders are kept open at all costs… even the potential deaths of millions of Europeans, Trump took the hard step to stop incoming air traffic from the effected areas. In doing so he received the ire of the progressive faction that would like nothing better, (judging by their actions) than a widespread epidemic that kills millions of Americans. In acting insane, claiming it is out of control and urging panic, democrats have shown who they really are.
During the Obama administration there were at least two deadly diseases that ravaged people around the world, that Obama did nothing to stop. The Ebola disease that kills eighty percent of those infected, bleeding out their eyes, nose, ears and mouth, was allowed to spread to the US by unlimited air travel. The media however didn’t have anything bad to say about Obama’s handling of that disease. The SARS epidemic, that killed over a thousand Americans and was allowed to spread to tens of thousands of Americans, didn’t elicit any negative response from the media. It was not hyped nor was Obama vilified for doing nothing to stop the spread. In the end, it was the onset of summer that stopped SARS from killing many more Americans… not the response from the Obama administration.
Oh, I am not saying this is not a deadly threat, to not only the US, but the world. I am saying it is not the threat the 1918 Spanish Flu was, nor is it the danger that SARS was. The primary problem with this disease is the world’s response to it. China has gutted their economy by quarantine, California is in a state of emergency and Europe is in a panic. That panic has effected the stock market and may lower economic output for the world this year. Not due to the deaths, or disease, but because of the over the top response, designed to damage our economy, and thus elicit anger against Trump leading the way for a Marxist or progressive to take the reins of power. To them, human suffering is a tool, a means to power… not a thing to be avoided.
If progressives really did worry about disease, they would not promote disease where they live. Take San Francisco, human feces lines the streets, in LA all the once eradicated diseases have made a comeback, leprosy, tuberculosis, plague, even measles, mumps and rubella, due to the anti immunization movement. Showing progressives don’t worry about disease, unless it can get them more power over others. Then progressives project terror, to create a panic, which by any measure is very progressive. Sure, Covid 19 will kill people and it will be a problem for the next few months. By early summer it will be relegated to the history books as another feckless panic. So, wash your hands, keep safe and stay vigilant, but don’t panic, that is Henney Penney foolishness that will only make it worse.
Sincerely,
John Pepin
