Lord Donaldemort hopes Coronavirus will 'just disappear'?

President Trump, as if waving an invisible magic wand, wished COVID19 away. ‘I think we are going to be very good with the Coronavirus. I think that, at some point, that it's going to sort of just disappear, I hope.’ Hmmm. This comes as Donald’s United States of COVID19 recorded 43,000 new cases in just one day. Gawd Bless America!

The Lone Trumper? Donald’s own Republican Party called for the President to wear a mask in public, to set a good example. Donald had resisted wearing a mask, saying it would be unseemly for the commander-in-chief to wear a mask as he meets heads of state. Changing his tune, he assured America that he does wear one. ‘I sort of liked the way I looked. It was a dark black mask and I thought it looked OK. It looked like the Lone Ranger.’ For any millennials out there, the Lone Ranger is a fictional masked ex-Texas Ranger, who rode the Old West shooting bad guys. Just wear the f***ing mask, Ke-mo sah-bee!

The masked Democrat? As waves of COVID19 infections spread across the South and West of America, Donald’s rival for the Presidency, former Vice-President Joe Biden came out in favour of wearing masks. Saying that if elected he would pursue a federal mask mandate. While Donald countered by saying a federal mandate was unnecessary and was at the end of the day, a matter of choice. He then weighed into Joe for making a speech through his mask, while being some distance away from his audience. It’s called being safe, Mr President!

Back Area Wearer? Trump groupie and White House adviser, Kellyanne Conway said about Donald wearing a mask, ‘I’ve said wear them, the First Lady has said wear them, the president’s administration has said wear them.’ She assured Americans the President and the Vice President are regularly tested. Along with aides, White House visitors and members of the Fake News media, that Donald allows in. Apparently, there is photographic proof of him actually wearing one. That was behind-the-scenes on a trip to the Michigan Ford Assembly Plant. The 45th President said he wore a mask in a ‘back area’, only because ‘I didn't want to give the press the pleasure of seeing it.’ Grow up!

Leaders in Masks! Meanwhile Canada’s Justin Trudeau and France’s Emmanuel Macron, have been wearing masks, while encouraging their people to do the same. But in Washington, the President refused to entertain that America might have opened too soon. This is in spite of Florida, New York and Texas, pausing or slowing down reopening, amid recent increases in confirmed COVID19 cases. Donald even accused his political opponents of hyping the spike for gains come November. ‘I think the Democrats would like to see the country stay closed as long as possible because they figure that’s probably good for the election.’

The ‘Miracle’ hasn’t happened yet! Back in March President Trump predicted the Coronavirus would disappear ‘like a miracle’. Not wanting to rain on the President’s next inauguration but the miracle hasn’t happened. Way out west, Californian bars, theatres and restaurants are closing down again. Nearly half of their intensive care, hospital beds have COVID19 patients in them. Dr Anthony Fauci, a leading U.S. infectious disease expert, worryingly warned his country was ‘going in the wrong direction’. I’m no virus expert but that doesn’t sound good, America.

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...

The half full / half empty Coronavirus Test!

There’s nothing like a good pandemic to flush out, exactly what kind of people we really are. In doing so of course, we also discover the calibre of human being that we have all around us. COVID19, a microscopic virus has put the entire human race under the microscope. Unnaturally cooping us together, this nasty Coronavirus doesn’t take any prisoners, when it comes to highlighting our shortcomings. In short, are we positive, thumbs up ‘glass half fullers’ or a bunch of miserable ‘glass half emptiers’? Let the Lockdown Games begin! COVID19 a killer you can survive. Yes, COVID19 is terrifying but you can come out the other side and live to tell the tale. It’s not many diseases that have brave nurses the world over, as frightened as the patients they’re caring for. When it has you in its grip with a fever, rasping cough, abdominal and chest pains, coupled with a shortness of breath, you really think you’re not long for this world. When you start bringing up blood and your te...

Aussies & Kiwis flattening the COVID curve?

If you live in Australia and New Zealand, it’s time to thank your COVID19 lucky stars. While the Antipodes is flattening the curve, in other parts of the world, the pandemic is not fading away but actually accelerating. This extremely bad news was delivered by  the World Health Organization (WHO), reporting that new Coronavirus cases were reaching new heights. Millions more infected.   In the first three months of the pandemic, one million cases of COVID19 were recorded. It took just eight days to reach the next million cases! With a worldwide total exceeding a staggering nine million, the death rate in some countries doesn’t make for comfortable reading. Donald Trump’s America tops the charts with a lamentable figure that’s heading towards 130,000 deaths. Brazil leads the way in South America, with a thousand Brazilians losing their lives every day. Brazil going nuts! Governments seem to be choosing between lives and livelihoods. Brazil’s President declared social dista...
