    According to the Saturday reports, deaths attributed to C19 as a percent of state populations, CT had 0.13%, NY and NJ 0.12% (rounded). Next on the list down were MA 0.08% and KY 0.06%. The median is around 0.01%. CA 0.01%, TX 0.005%, IL 0.03%, FL 0.01%, CO 0.02%, DC 0.05%. US Nationally 0.03%. This was/is a much more serious problem for our largest megalopolis than “The Rest of Us”. I suspect the picture is even more stark analyzed by County. I draw no conclusions, political, medical, racial, or economic. I’lll let history try explain it … or obfuscate it.

    Nature or human meddling are the likely parent of the virus. Unless someone confesses, human tinkering will likely never be proven. Theories, “scientific” or not, remain theories. Given the historic record of viral epidemics and the medical industry’s inability to eradicate the common cold, this mutation will become another disease the biosphere will coddle for its own reasons.

    “As Long As It’s Out There” … almost as weak a clichĂ© as “If Even One Might Die”? A musician tour in February or March in Spain contracted COVID-19-like symptoms. He self quarantined on return “home”. He was tested. He went through “The Suffering”. He was Negative for COVID-19. He was positive for a mutated 1918 Spanish Flu variant. To the extent that stories like that are true (the musician reports it as true on a personal level), is one ever SAFE?

    ” In the “distant future”, there most likely won’t be anyone deciding any issues for an entire continent of people.” … does the US count as an entire continent of people? 🙂
