[QUOTE="jjraak, post: 2244094, member: 493719"] Gave an agree [USER=160246]@Winnie53[/USER] , as that is my primary goal here for myself. and by dint for those without the time or inclination to look as hard at the data as you obviously do. but do take a HUG for the worry, ( two votes if we can mods, please ) the truth as unpalatable as it is is the RULES have changed. deny away, bury that head, people, but it's true. the sooner we face that the sooner we all protect ourselves a little bit better. yesterday we got sick called an ambulance it came and we moved heaven and earth to treat you, if that failed families gathered and had that moment that helped them and a loved one meet the end together. That no longer exists. the sick mostly go to hospital, they may recover. but if it goes end game, they die alone. and we who are left behind struggle to find closure. My niece had a close uncle pass away Sunday night . very ill, ventilator needed for younger patient. put in side ward ..family informed. passed away that night. Our poor exhausted NHS and HCW's ...EU and US, are now making life and death decisions on a daily basis. no where is immune paris. milan, madrid, London, New York and these doctors and nurses.. and some are kids to me, are writing last wills and testaments..aged 30 *** we no longer move heaven and earth to save YOU whoever you are, we may not even send an ambulance. advice is to stay home. We ARE On our own... let that sink in...[B]we are on our own.[/B] some will cry... some will deny, ...but that is the truth for the moment. YOU decide how much risk you now take, mix and mingle..get sick will you get help..? depends ... on age, city, current hospital capacity, etc.etc so stay as well as possible, as safe as possible, for as long as possible...IS the new order of the day. Sorry to hear of your concerns for husband. Like to think that a jogging, tennis playing, loud raucous husband might get a chance.., not me though reasonably healthy, i like to think but when ill and real poorly, grey and gasping for breathe, is that who they'll see on the stretcher /gurney ? Hawkeye coming down the line with trapper john and hotlips, you got a shot. but frank burns ...and it's just age, rank, location..NEXT when the odds go against us, the best we can do is NOT be in that arena in the first place and if we do.... be the best 'YOU' in that arena you can be. take care [USER=160246]@Winnie53[/USER] always a pleasure to read your posts i hope to be doing that for many a year to come.
