U.S. in the grip of Moronavirus?

In the United States, Coronavirus has mutated into Moronavirus! Worryingly, even though there is an international travel ban, this mutation of STUPID20 is spanning oceans and crossing borders with ease. We might try to compensate for Moronavirus’s spread, by saying the world has never had to deal with anything like of COVID19 before but recent U.S. lockdown protests, have probably spread the virus further. Data from protester’s cell phones suggest, the virus travelled hundreds of miles after these protest rallies were over. Little or no precautions were taken and the consequences will become apparent, when America’s death toll breaks through the 100,000 barrier. 

Second Wave inevitable? These anti-lockdown protests seem to have provided perfect conditions to launch a second wave of COVID19 in America. Trying to explain exactly what an epidemiologist is to a protester, might have been a task for Fox News. Taking advice from an expert in controlling diseases, would hopefully have appealed to some of them. They may have heeded warnings of a new wave of deaths coming America's way. But thousands of protesters gathering in highly concentrated events and then quickly dispersing, will only add to America's deadly nightmare. Even the most Neanderthal among them, would surely see this was suicidal.

When The Going Gets Tough, President Trump goes golfing. Despite the U.S. body count nearing six figures, the overweight, Commander-in-Chief concentrates on more important figures, namely getting his handicap down. Of course, in between shots, the Twitter King of Pennsylvania Avenue finds time to compose 240 character tweets, for getting his country back to normal, post lockdown. He’s threatened to override states, pressurising them to reopen businesses, offices and places of worship. A closed down economy is a dead economy and that would never do, for the former host of the Apprentice. He might have to fire himself!

‘We shall NOT fight Coronavirus on the Beaches!’ Record highs in the number of COVID19 cases across America, coincided with a recent heat wave, causing many Americans to flaunt public health warnings and foolishly flock to the beaches. Hair salons and other smaller shops, dotted throughout The States opened their doors, in an attempt to reboot their businesses after a month of Government enforced lockdowns. Warnings of a new wave of COVID19, from many public health experts have fallen upon deaf ears of small business owners. The Governor of New York warned that opening businesses too soon was risky. An understatement if ever there was one.

Governors not governing? The Governor for Rhode Island said the Lockdown protests were short-sighted, saying violating social distancing rules was ‘just selfish!’ Hear, hear! World famous Daytona Beach was open for business, with people walking, surfing, biking and swimming. Gathering in groups was advised against but residents observed beachgoers were ‘just not listening!’ Another home owner said the beaches were packed. ‘That wasn’t supposed to happen.’ Indeed.

‘Lockdown parties’ spread Moronavirus! The rise of the ‘lockdown party’, being held by young people around the world is a worrying trend in the fight to halt COVID19. Proving beyond doubt that Moronavirus is not confined to the morons of America. These ‘end of the world’ knees ups, have been condemned by various governments, as being irresponsible and contributing to the spread of the Coronavirus. Berlin, the non-stop party capital of Europe and epicentre for ‘doof doof’ clubbers, saw over 60 clubs and bars, closed by police. Ãœbe soziale Distanzierung, du Idioten!

What’s a ‘Corona Speakeasy’? Berlin police have reported a new phenomenon, the rise of the ‘Corona Speakeasy’. They’ve been springing up all over the city, where owners of shut-down bars tape up windows and locked doors, only allowing entry to guests who've registered or give a secret knock, that the owner recognises. Zee German chief of Police said ‘we’re not living in 1920s Chicago and anyone found running a ‘speakeasy’ should expect a visit from my officers'. Steck das in deine Pfeife und rauche es!

Sorry Coronavirus, Tech don’t do lockdown!

To paraphrase William ‘Braveheart’ Wallace, COVID19 may take our lives but it will never take...OUR TECHNOLOGY! This nasty strain of Coronavirus has knocked mankind for six, whisking many of us off to meet our makers but Tech, like rust never sleeps. Humanity’s innate ingenuity will always find a way to shine, even in the darkest of times. Unsurprisingly the Digital Age we live in has come to the fore, allowing business and life in general to get back to some semblance of normality. Or as we now call it in Brave New Coronavirus World the ‘new normal’. These digital wonders are literally propping up our daily lives. Techno tools that are proving essential in keeping us moving forward and not grinding to a shuddering halt.   This leap in technology during COVID19 has gathered real momentum. We all need to be in a permanent state of digital readiness. Staying current to whatever technology dreams up next, will not only be essential to a business but to the country that business is lo...

Tears, Tear Gas and COVID19?

If we thought our pandemic gripped world couldn’t get any worse, we were wrong. With the murder of George Floyd by the lethal use of a Minneapolis police officer’s knee, cities across the world have risen with mass gatherings of protesters. Outrage for George’s unlawful and  unnecessary  death have stoked fears the contagion will spread, as many protests occurred in Coronavirus hot spots. With streets flooded with demonstrators, many not wearing masks and the police responding with tear gas, the perfect Petri dish for COVID19 has been created. Imperfect Timing. George’s murder and subsequent protests have come just as many communities were beginning to lower their guard. Restrictions were gradually being loosened. In terms of COVID19, the protests couldn’t have happened at a worse time, with fears for a second more deadly wave, making the first look like a walk in the park. Months of social distancing have been overturned overnight. Fresh outbreaks could see the rein...

COVID-America goes postal!

Tonight, Americans go to the polls, care of the United States Postal Service. The right will vote for another four years of President Trump, while the left of right will vote for other old white guy. Will this unique, pandemic postal vote prove fatal for the Orange one? We are hours away from finding out.  While election day is nearly upon us, COVID-19 has been surreptitiously sweeping through Red and Blues States in a most unbiased manner. The big question is, can the average Joe and Joanna in Main Street, U.S. vote fairly, without exposing themselves to the dangers of an indiscriminate killer.  November 3rd will see America’s fate, decided by a record number of votes cast by mail. Ballots have been distributed by a number of states to everyone eligible to vote. This Herculean task, labelled the ‘Postal Experiment’, is proving popular with voters, with almost 2/3rds saying they’d vote using them. Predictably, President Donald’s not buying it, referring to the postal vote as a...
