It’s hard to know how to organize this–what I often find myself doing is searches sometimes during the day to make a point, or at least have the information for later. I have a bookmark bar chock full of articles, which do prove my assertions, but I sometimes find myself shaken awake at 3 or 4 am and I start reading articles that get sent to my feed. I tend to dislike celebrity culture, none of them are to be admired really except a limited few. No sense in naming any but possibly John Ritter, who put a lot of money into aortic dissection research which has proved invaluable. But anyways, yes, 3 am articles I email to myself I will include here. Considerations, only. Certainly we all want to limit our COVID doses of bad news but there is some hope to be found coming given the sheer numbers of people infected there will be lots of research money thrown towards treatments. I don’t think these worse things will happen to everyone, but if they do later, we certainly could understand this should cause a massive shift in consciousness and priorities for the public. I think this should hopefully take on a massive scale in efforts to collectively demand the government spend some of that money on us again because they specifically made the response prone to business interests over people interests. We did not elect them to represent business first, we elected them to put PEOPLE first. Again, I’m sure there are some business owners who did that, but certainly not everyone owns a business, and there’s no way it’s the majority yet–and certainly not the kinds of businesses the top owners represent at the expense of the public.
January articles of note I emailed to myself. I do think there’s something to say about all of these, but I will keep my summaries within an easy 1-2 sentence synopsis with links in the word STORY. I didn’t do these day-by-day and maybe I should do that plus a last Sunday of the month listing of everything organized like that. I have new goals starting FEB 1 so it can work. In any case, if you found the time to click on any, you will see why I am so eager to protect people from their own worst inclinations-none of these stories give me a warm and fuzzy feeling about thinking anyone should wing it and not get vaccinated, but I’m sure I don’t need to say that twice. Here they are, my January COVID stories I read–a lot of them I neglected to bookmark so that is a whole other listing I will need to do if I can determine that for the month of JAN-my COVID bookmarks born of my own research. I will see what I can do, but for now, the email ASSORTMENT FOLLOWS:
