 If you've been watching TV, you have heard the non-stop reports on COVID-19. 

Reporters have effectively scared you half to death.  Some have reported facts, but they were lost in opinion and hysteria.  Here are some facts:

From January thru March, the "experts" who specialize in infectious disease and outbreaks,

were given study models about the morbidity (illness) & mortality (deaths) of Covid-19.  We now know that those models predicting 2 million deaths were wrong! 

In mid-March, New York City had a serious outbreak.  Thousands of people with serious, underlying conditions died. Outbreaks were reported in other cities too. 

At that point, Drs. Anthony Fauci and Deborah Birx advised President Trump and the COVID-19 Task Force to close down "non-essential" businesses across the US. Dentists, Eye Doctors, Podiatrists, Chiropractors, & other health care providers; 

Even MDs were told they could not see patients that the "COVID Czars" deemed elective! 

If you exercise your 1st Amendment Right to attend your place of worship, even while practicing "social distancing", you can be ticketed or your Pastor can be jailed! So, if you wish to pray, need eye surgery, a cavity filled, or a hip replaced, you'll have to stay home and hurt. 

The rationale for closing the country:

PREVENT HOSPITALS FROM BEING OVERWHELMED WITH COVID-19 PATIENTS! This did not mean we would stop COVID-19 from spreading; it would help hospitals MANAGE cases so they would not be overwhelmed. When the officials learned hospitals were not overwhelmed, "the experts" then said the shut down was to "keep you from catching COVID-19!" 

This disease has killed a lot of people; so has HIV. There are numerous viruses over time...remember polio? Before the polio vaccine, most people experienced a sore throat & fever, but some became paralyzed! The death rate was 5-15%. Polio still cripples and kills today! 

During those pandemics, you could go on a picnic, get your cavity filled, even go to a ballgame! 

Dental practices, hospital units, and other health care providers who weren't caring for "life-threatening illnesses" are being forced to close. Hospitals & clinics laid off RNs & other staff. "Essential businesses" are still open... Big box stores,Target, Walmart, Pharmacies, car dealers,

and bicycle shops.  LIQUOR stores & MARIJUANA dispensaries are "essential!" (essential varies state to state)  Non-essential businesses, like private-health practices, can only see emergency patients.  Who has the training in disease prevention? 

The Texas population is approximately 29 million people. We live in Houston, the 4th largest city in the US. On 4/22/20, our Mayor announced that 34 people had died due to COVID-19.  34!  The entire state of Texas had a total of 517 deaths.  Starting 4/30/20, our Mayor declared, "EVERYONE MUST WEAR A MASK IN PUBLIC" (or risk a $1000 fine!) 

My husband has a Dental practice that employs 7 women. They stayed on staff believing the PAYROLL PROTECTION PLAN would provide their salaries

while patients couldn't be seen.  He followed the rules and filed for PPP at 12:01am on the 1st Friday we could apply.  Now we are learning that big businesses had applied 4 days earlier; they received MILLIONS of dollars intended for offices like ours!  Only one Oral Surgeon we know received his PPP loan papers, but he had been on the Bank's Board of Directors.  Even with that, he hasn't received the money yet. (He's only allowed to see "emergencies" as well.)

I know about hospitals and Dental practices. I've worked in hospitals since age 16. 

I helped my husband open his office. We are required to take courses about infectious disease prevention. 

Dentists pay large fees to several agencies certifying that the staff will protect you from infections.  While the "governing czars" keep dentists (and other doctors) from seeing their patients, many Drs. will be bankrupt before they can take care of anyone's next toothache, eye exam, or hip replacement! 

Folks often think all Doctors are wealthy. They spent 8+ years of expensive education to get their Doctorates.  But, not all Doctors are as wealthy as you may think.  Most doctors in private practice have bills that you can't imagine. Insurance companies fight to delay payment for your treatment.  Some insurance policies, along with your copay, barely cover break-even expenses for treatment.  When prices go up, it's to cover our costs! 

There are no guarantees that small businesses of any kind will receive funds from this loan

program.  It's not the President's fault.  Congress added outrageous demands that money goes to places like the Kennedy Center, who, by the way, laid off their employees in spite of receiving $25million!  If small businesses receive these loans, the business owner is responsible for repayment, if the SBA says so!  

When your local Government allows your doctor to see you again, please remember that health care providers have been slammed financially.  While "essential businesses" are open, we have extensive training in preventing you from getting sick.  People in health care don't do it for the money; they do it because they want to keep you well.

The truth behind the story;

Ozone therapy has been used for cancer patients. O3 gas has been infused in the body as a DISINFECTANT to improve the intake of oxygen while ramping up the immune system, thus more efficiently killing bacteria and viruses. (google it). President Trump was asking the expert off the side if testing was being done relative to applying this to the coronavirus.

NBC CBS CNN and company would take his words out of context to make it appear he asked if we could inject household bleach

A disinfectant should only be done by a qualified medical expert in this field.

Formalin, thimerosal are also used as disinfectants to inactivate bacteria and viruses.

Now you know the rest of the story!

Could our monetary system be next to collapse?

Could the monetary system of our cash money be next to collapse? However,

at the same time, we must remember what FDR said during his inaugural speech in 1933.  "Nothing to fear but fear It itself." FDR was telling the American people that their fear was making things worse. By running to the banks and taking their money out they were causing more damage to the economy.  

I have

heard on the news that it is wise to wait at least 3-5 days before handling or opening your Amazon or other packages. While the virus dies off on cardboard in about 24 hours, it lives much longer on other materials. If the warehouse worker who packed the item or delivery person who dropped it off was infected, then there could be a virus present not only on the cardboard or paper of the package, but on any plastic tape, labels, or inside the packaging.

 The virus  can

also live on paper and many of the materials our coin currency is made of. Chinese banks have started essentially washing money to destroy potentially infected cash before it's redistributed back out to society.

Restaurants are functioning on-to-go menus and delivery, while many of us are

practicing social distancing and wearing masks when going grocery shopping or on essential outings. However, we are still exchanging currency with hand to hand contact in many instances. Money itself is dirty. I remember as a child after handling money my mother always asked me to wash my hands. I can still hear her voice say,  "you don't know where that money's been."

Under normal circumstances,

money is dirty, under the current world situation I believe our monetary system is contaminated. Maybe it's best for everyone to start using their debit or credit cards, however, it's also been said, "viruses, in general, tend to survive longer on hard surfaces like credit cards and coins."

When I was young,

I  heard the future would consist of a currency free society.  In the first century when the book of Revelation was written, the idea that you could buy and sell with a number that is attached in some way to your body would have seemed incredible. However with the world situation as it is now this doesn't sound too far fetched. 

 The constant partisan bickering is a cancer to our country and must stop. This is not the time! America must unite!

God bless the universe.
