Coronavirus ~ COVID-19

I don't know if someone's mentioned this already but animals are now showing up with COVID-19. Dogs and cats in the US and Hong Kong plus lions and tigers at the Bronx Zoo have tested positive.

And with people going to the beach makes me wonder how this can or will affect sea life.

Sociology and Epidemiology studies can be very helpful in mapping how COVID 19 is transmitted via various other host processes (for example: water waste management processes, and the possibility that water resources can be compromised).


Here's a news article I found which was published a few weeks ago at the top of April (link provided below):

New research examines wastewater to detect community spread of Covid-19

Generally speaking I am perhaps overly optimistic on outcomes. However, my view on the country reopening is less than optimistic at this point. There are still too many new cases being diagnosed daily and there is no real downward trend that we can call a downward trend. The numbers are still in the plataeu range. I expect to see cases begin to rise substantially again as many people will view this as the all clear signal. To date around one third of all cases reported have been here in the states. I can't believe so many people feel the president did and continues to manage this appropriately.

I have no idea if any of you will find the following Op-Ed as interesting as I did, but it drives home a salient point about what most of us know, since the inception of the Sh*t-Show Circus that occupies the WH and other arms of their administration (GOP senate, other executive branch agencies manned with ineptitude by those hired or appointed by the current T---P admin).

I have faith in the wider voter base that people will remember how important it is to oust these corrupt individuals from American society.

The Op-Ed author speaks to the lack of organizational ability to collect enough data on the COVID 19 data in terms of exposure index, response rates, and other index fields of interest to include fatality index counts. For anyone with experience constructing unbiased, scientific studies, one knows there is an +/- margin of error based on any number of factors. I like the salient points driven home by this author and I hope his message is taken seriously by people across the country. Whether the crisis is an social impact caused by hurricanes or health pandemics, we need exceptionally astute people at the helm of important organizations. I can think of no one in the current administration who is smart enough to be in charge of organizations, much less the WH.

Please, please, for the love of humanity and the safety of everyone left on earth, please vote to oust the occupants destroying our world and our society, when the next election occurs.
