Lockdown Update

20th October 2020 Daily Covid-19 Virus Update Status - High Alert Lockdown Tier 3 Maximum possible restrictions We've listened and are following the Science And here what i hold aloft in my hand are the most up to date current statistics numbers and figures report And the facts or reason or the basis we have taken or made our decision upon 1 in 240 has contacted the virus Or 239 do not have it whereas 1 does And afterwards every member of a live studio when asked responded wow that's a lot So 1 by definition or is a means of defining what a lot is then 1 equates to a lot But then i thought to myself if by way of means i choose a different context to use or do the maths without the use of paranoia or sense of panic I said if i had $240 and gave just a one single $1 Which of us would you say had would be defined or the definition of a lot You with your $1 Or Me with my $239 So if or in what we are lead to believe is to be taken on face value that every single life or death is a hell of a lot Then this virus has achieved over a very short period of time what no one could before this virus did exist

Scary isn't it indeed Jan and not just at present but what awaits us all when this is all finally over and done with Jan i think is the scariest of all of this . We are going to rebuild and have to start from scratch. It was just my way of merely observing or coming at something from a different angle or context. Thank you very much for your thoughts Jan
