Hi;
Even entertainers get older during the pandemic:-). The rest of us just
hope to as well.
Check out the link below for Neil Sedaka doing his part to make our
world a better place.
Remaining, appreciatively,

Salutations;
You don't have to be religious to appreciate this humor, but it might
help:-).

*The NILE Virus (Type C)*
I thought you might want to know about this virus.
Even the most advanced computer programs from Norton, McAfee, and others
cannot take care of this one.
It appears to target those most who were born prior to 1954 and a few
even later.
The lock-down seems to be increasing the chances of being affected!
*Virus Symptoms*:
1. Causes you to send the same e-mail twice. (Done that)
2. Causes you to send a blank e-mail. (That too)
3. Causes you to send an e-mail to the wrong person. (Yup)
4. Causes you to send it back to the person who sent it to you. (Ah-ha)
5. Causes you to forget to attach the attachment. (Done that)
6. Causes you to hit SEND before you've finished. (Oh no, not again)
7. Causes you to hit DELETE instead of SEND. (Hate that)
8. Causes you to hit SEND when you should DELETE. (Heck, now what?)
This virus is called the *C-NILE virus!*
A lot of us have already been inflicted with this deadly disease and
unfortunately as we age it gets worse.
And if you can't admit to doing any of the above, you've obviously
caught the other strain - the *D-NILE virus!*
Not knowing the source, I think this is informative, and worth reading.

Good advice from an epidemiologist, obviously well
informed .:
As time passes in a pandemic there’s a greater
chance of survival for those getting infected 3
months later like June 2020 than those who got
infected 3 months earlier say February 2020. The
reason for this is that Doctors and scientists know
more about Covid-19 now than 3 months ago and hence
are able to treat patients better. I will list *5
important things* that we know now that we didn’t
know in February 2020 for your understanding.
1. COVID-19 was initially thought to cause deaths
due to *pneumonia- a lung infection*- and so
Ventilators were thought to be the best way to treat
sick patients who couldn’t breathe. *Now we are
realizing that the virus 🦠 causes blood clots in
the blood vessels of the lungs* and other parts of
the body and this causes the reduced oxygenation .
Now we know that just providing oxygen by
ventilators will not help but we have to prevent and
dissolve the micro clots in the lungs. This is why
we are using drugs like *Aspirin and Heparin ( blood
thinners that prevents clotting) as protocol in
treatment regimens in June 2020. *
2. Previously patients used to drop dead on the road
or even before reaching a hospital due to reduced
oxygen in their blood- OXYGEN SATURATION. This was
because of *HAPPY HYPOXIA*- where even though the
oxygen saturation was gradually reducing the
COVID-19 patients did not have symptoms until it
became critically less, like sometimes even 70%.
**Normally we become breathless if oxygen saturation
reduces below 90%. **This breathlessness is not
triggered in Covid patients and so we we’re getting
the sick patients very late to the hospitals in
February 2020. Now since knowing about happy hypoxia
we are monitoring oxygen saturation of all covid
patients *with a simple home use pulse oxymeter and
getting them to hospital if their oxygen saturation
drops to 93% or less*. This gives more time for
doctors to correct the oxygen deficiency in the
blood and a better survival chance in June 2020.
3. We did not have drugs to fight the corona virus
🦠 in February 2020. We were only treating the
complications caused by it... hypoxia. Hence most
patients became severely infected.
```**Now we have 2 important medicines FAVIPIRAVIR &
REMDESIVIR**```
Which are ANTIVIRALS that can kill the corona virus
🦠. By using these two medicines we can prevent
patients from becoming severely infected and
therefore cure them BEFORE THEY GO TO HYPOXIA. This
knowledge we have in JUNE 2020... not in February 2020.
4. Many Covid-19 patients die not just because of
the virus 🦠 but also due the patients own immune
system responding In an exaggerated manner called
*CYTOKINE STORM*. This stormy strong 💪 immune
response not only kills the virus 🦠 but also kills
the patients. In February 2020 we didn’t know how to
prevent it from happening. Now in June 2020, we know
that *easily available medicines called Steroids,*
that doctors around the world have been using for
almost 80 years *can be used to prevent the cytokine
storm in some patients*.
5. Now we also know that people with hypoxia became
better just by making them lie down on their belly-
known as prone position. Apart from this a few days
ago Israeli scientists have discovered that a
chemical known as Alpha Defensin produced by the
patients White blood cells can cause the micro clots
in blood vessels of the lungs and this could
possibly be prevented by a drug called Colchicine
used over many decades in the treatment of Gout.
So now we know for sure that patients have a better
chance at surviving the COVID-19 infection now in
June 2020 than in February 2020 for sure. India has
not peaked in March or April because of the
lock-down. This strategy has postponed the Covid-19
pandemic in INDIA by 3 crucial months that has
enabled us to save thousands of lives.
Going forward there’s nothing to panic about
Covid-19 if we remember that a person who gets
infected later has a better chance at survival than
one who got infected early.
Let’s all follow simple precautions like
-6 feet distancing from others
-Wear proper masks
-Work from home whenever possible
-Order delivery and take away of food groceries and
vegetables
- Stay at home during lock-down
- Hand 🤚 wash & hygiene
With this we can beat the virus 🦠. If someone tells
you every one is going to get infected, tell them
that you are willing to wait to be the last
person... who knows by then we might even have a
VACCINE.

If I had a dollar for every girl who found me unattractive, they'd
eventually find me very attractive.
I find it ironic that the colours red, white, and blue stand for
freedom, until they're flashing behind you.
Today a man knocked on my door and asked for a small donation towards
the local swimming pool,
so I gave him a glass of water.
Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.
I'm great at multi-tasking: I can waste time, be unproductive, and
procrastinate all at once.
If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.
Take my advice, I'm not using it.
Hospitality is the art of making guests feel like they're at home when
you wish they were.
Behind every great man is a woman rolling her eyes.
Ever stop to think and forget to start again?
Women spend more time wondering what men are thinking than men spend
thinking.
He who laughs last thinks slowest.
Is it wrong that only one company makes the game Monopoly?
Women sometimes make fools of men, but most guys are the do-it-yourself
type.
Men say women should come with an instruction manual; but since when has
any man stopped to read the instructions.
I was going to give him a nasty look, but he already had one.
Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.
I was going to wear my camouflage shirt today, but I couldn't find it.

Hi all;
Mother Nature sure does look good when she puts on a show, especially
given her age :-).
Check this out for your own smile.
