Have been avoiding this thread as there is too much to catch up on. But since you are on lockdowns we have our own going in Manitoba. They have shown a graph of infections. We were as high a count per 100,000 as any of the worst states. As you can see the direction we are heading in has changed. And this is with a government dead set (sorry) against taking drastic measures.
I talked to a buddy of mine that works in our largest hospital. He had a list of wards that have been changed to covid wards, it shocked me. I have been keeping up with what was happening in the US and our area and knew our ICU's wer close to maximum but the amount of not quite that sick but in hospital made an impression.
As I have said I try to educate some of your NewsMax brethren in the hope of a few will get it. There was an article about the security manager at the White House getting the virus and losing a toe and part of the leg. Of course there was the unbelievers saying he had previous conditions and just happened to have the virus at the same time. I told them that the virus destabilizes the body and messes up with any precondition.
I said he probably lost it because of blood clots (the virus does that also) and diabetics are susceptible to problems in their extremities. Of course they blamed it on being diabetic, no way it could be blood clots. Anyway found a good medical paper and afterward a couple sort of layman's version of it.

Much food for thought emerged when the Oak Ridge supercomputer tapped into COVID-19’s mind. We shall watch this story with interest.

An image of what the virus can do. Not all there is to it but where these researchers were heading with it.
Thought some here would find it informative.
