looking for a cure

The cure for today's ailment is to take a good hard look at who is behind it all in the first place (and remove this evil from the scene). Good to see you today, harry.

I agree - unfortunately there are those who never learn. A cure will be the miracle of the 20's! Blessings, Jennifer.

Much wisdom in your senryu, Harry. We should learn from history. Knowing that the Spanish flu pandemic had a second and third wave far worse, I worry about how we are reopening. I'm praying for a vaccine that comes sooner than later. xx Rhonda

Too bad we don't always learn from yesterday. Then maybe we wouldn't be destroying our environment trying to improve on what God already made perfect. A fine write Harry. God Bless and stay well. JB

Only if all countries pool their knowledge will we get anywhere near, but one leading scientist has stated we may never find one, frightening thought. Tom

Harry the numbers are way down and according to credible doctors those numbers were fudge to create a more severe result. Many that died were from other underlying health issues. The government paid the hospitals 15000.00 dollars if they put on certificate of death it was from covid 19. The end result is the vaccination. I have done research on this vaccine funded by Bill Gates it is very harmful Harry. Celleste Solum wrote about it. Look her up.

Sometimes we look for the cure and swallow poison. We must be wise. Great, Harry!

This is a fine philosophical poem that encapsulates wisdom in a short but powerful verse.

It's going to take more than a sticking plaster to heal this one Harry - not sure if I'd be happy to risk a vaccine as no one knows the long term side effects ... only time will tell. things are improving here, one new case in 5 days BUT few are being tested!:-) take care:-) hugs jan xx
