It is not a pandemic when you have time to make, buy, and present wreaths at the funeral.

A real pandemic is when you drop the bodies or casket in the hole, fill it up quickly, and scram.

The United States government along the the Ad Council is running PSAs on an infinite loop stating that one in three adult Americans has pre-diabetes. If you have pre-diabetes, diabetes, high blood pressure or obesity, what do you think will happen when you catch a bug?

NO. BUT THE CAUSE OF DEATH IS THE VIRUS AND NOT YOUR OBESITY OR HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE ETC
a doctor certifies the cause of death and it is A or B and not C and D that were contributing factors that weakened the system.

It is rude to SHOUT. It also makes people wonder, if you have all your marbles. A typical death certificate has 5 lines relating to medical conditions.

If you don't get how a tire reduces O2 content in your blood stream and other problems associated with obesity and diabetes, you will remain as we found you.
