In other news... it seems for the most part we have been spared by Tropical Storm Isaias, even Isaias knew it was no match for Category 5 Hurricane Minnis!

Isaias remains a serious threat to a large swath of our country, especially given its size and the potential for it strengthening after it passes over the mountains of Hispaniola. Keep in mind too that we will likely be in its more dangerous Northeast quadrant as it passes over us.

There is a delayed 21 days - 6 weeks period for patients testing positive to begin to see a **steep climb** in the number of patients being included in the hospital's **official** counter. The **11** is about to change if **official** reporting is being **accurately** done.

lockdown is the most stupid thing in human history. As you see the past lock down was useless, if now we have another lock down. What's the purpose of lock down if it leads to another lock down.

Maybe someone should really question the intentions of the governments. It is slowly clear that not covid is the problem rather a population reduction agenda is put in place abusing covid (equally you could have taken any random virus and begin mass testing).
