Now for some surprising events and happenings that have come out of the virus outbreak and subsequent world-shut-down. Coronavirus art is being created and sold on ETSY, a platform for selling newly created or used items. I'm not sure who would want to hang such art, but people are people, so...
In Iran, there was a rumor started that claimed "rubbing essential oils on your anus" will cure the virus...um...no
And in India there were claims cow urine had healing effects towards the virus...again...no
A brothel in Valencia, Spain apparently became a "hotbed" (pun intended) for the virus when 86 customers became infected. Including staff a total of 119 people have been quarantined from said brothel. A surprisingly, stupid situation. Garlic, according to several social media sites, boiled in water can help cure the virus. And it is also effective against vampires...wink, wink
The following are surprising facts about coronavirus you may or may not know (but ought to):
The virus has an incubation period from 2 to 14 days, meaning infected persons may unknowingly spread the virus before they show symptoms.One odd side effect of the virus is some patients have lost their sense of smell and strangely without any nasal congestion. Some patients have shown improvement only to have a sudden decline, even to the point of respiratory distress. The virus has proven to affect people differently and health experts are suggest heavy monitoring the first week and then the patient either gets better or worse. With all this being said, it is clear to me that your goal should be to not get infected. It may seem obvious, but as summer approaches and more restrictions are lifted you may be tempted to attend a party or try dining out. Bear in mind, social distancing and wearing a mask on top of diligent hand washing are some keys to prevention. I imagine we will all have to make some difficult decisions in the coming weeks and months. All I can say is be informed, know the situation and let your conscience be your guide. Choose one?
Good Luck everyone.
