THOUGHTS ON CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19)
In the article, “BUTTERFLY EFFECT: SHOULD WE THANK ‘PAPA XI’ FOR SAVING US FROM CORONAVIRUS?” by Charu Sudan Kasturi on OZY, it’s stated that over 150 million people are under partial or complete lock down. Think about that, folks…The population of the United States is currently 327.2 million. So that means that the number of people under some type of lock down in China is a little under half of the entire population of the US. Can you image 1/2 of the United States in some type of quarantine? That number right there is more shocking to me than the entire total of deaths.
