RE: Chorley Lane
I did make a journey into the plague wastelands a few days ago, and life is moving along, just at a much slower pace.
I still have a hunch COVID19 has been in the wild all winter, and this is all a waste of time. I know a lot of people who already had a foul flu-like ailment that shared all the described symptoms. I had it myself. But who knows? No one is testing for that.
Meanwhile, the libraries are all closed. No work. but they say we'll get paid anyway. I suppose since people are getting taxed anyway, it makes sense. I say instead of handing out checks, why not declare a tax holiday instead? It's not like the budget matters to DC or the state capitol anyway.
A tax holiday would be a good idea.
I think you could be right there. Just after Christmas, maybe the end of January I and many others had an annoying flu like is worth a dry cough. I noticed it more because I had to take my inhaler which I rarely do. It took a good couple of weeks to shift. So it wouldn't surprise me if a lot of us have had it. That would explain the death rate but also bring the percentage death rate down making it less scary.
