Hi ANT, Sorry to hear your folks have to go through that... be happy they were not in some of the homes we have in Quebec and Ontario... were they actually tested for the virus to confirm the symptoms ? My mom is at home (82) and her neighbour and best friend of 50+ years has had her cancer treatments put on hold due to Covid... I worry about her and her friend as I need to make a 5-6 hour drive to check in on her.. and my mom has mild COPD.

I am concerned that infection and survival may not confer immunity..

as to elective surgery well yes I got fcuked over on foot surgery prior to Covid (delayed) and not further delay of course... I am very active but now my endurance has been affected quite a bit from chronic pain..

It's many decades since I realized that so-called experts are normally very unreliable. I don't mean in small ways. I mean my niece is dead. Just as one example of medical uselessness.

We still, even now, in NZ, have the country's chief medical soothsayer telling people that they don't recommend wearing masks. The prime minister, I kid you not, still says, right there on tv as leader, giving the state of the nation, to cough into our elbows.

By the way has anyone been following India? Total death rates in many states are 25 to 75% below the total at the same time last year The media is shocked by the low number of deaths in India and still thinks it coming. It’s not. Modi made a big mistake for India but even sadder he could’ve been an example for the developing world The WHO is corrupt, incompetent, and a killer of people They are not even experts although if they were I would listen to the one in 1000 brain on this board over them any day

The situation in India is of insanely world scale catastrophically MAD proportions, as in mutual assured destruction.
The average age in India is about 26. Italy is 44. The proportion of obese is low. The climate is not good for flu to succeed well. The immune systems necessary to survive there at any time are robust so WuFlu would likely be trivial. The hopelessly poor are unable to go without their tiny incomes. The physical disruption, the economic destruction, was obviously going to be wayyyyy worse than the improbable WuFlu.
