UK hits new daily record for Covid-19 deaths as 3rd lockdown fails to slow spread
Fool on the hill has failed again and again and again…
In the United Kingdom, the coronavirus situation remains bleak, with the government’s chief scientific advisor saying that some hospitals “now resemble to war zones” due to the influx of Covid-19 patients. 1,820 deaths were confirmed on Wednesday, the highest daily toll in the country so far. Prime Minsiter Boris Johnson has been under criticism for not acting sooner, particularly regarding the new variant of the coronavirus. But Johnson called on British to remain home wherever possible.

Lebanon lockdown extension recommended as cabbies, soldiers clash at airport (lack of government coordination = more problems)
Bohsali added: “Seven days after the beginning of the lockdown, the demand of food items, especially vegetables, bread and dairy products, has dramatically decreased, which is not the result of citizens’ decreasing need as much as their inability to buy the food items they need, after they have disappeared from the shelves.”
Bohsali also shed light on the incapacity of “delivery services, especially in supermarkets across Lebanon, to meet the needs of Lebanese.”
He warned that “extending the lockdown and keeping supermarkets closed will increase citizen’s needs of foods and goods, which will eventually lead to congestion and overcrowding in supermarkets.
“This will be a similar situation to before the lockdown, risking citizens’ health again.”

The World Bank today approved a re-allocation of US$34 million under the existing Lebanon Health Resilience Project to support vaccines for Lebanon as it faces an unprecedented surge in COVID-19, with record-breaking numbers of around 5,500 daily confirmed cases since the beginning of the year. This is the first World Bank-financed operation to fund the procurement of COVID-19 vaccines. The financing will provide vaccines for over 2 million individuals. The vaccines are expected to arrive in Lebanon by early February 2021.

El Paso County Sheriff’s Office spent more than $80,000 on masks, but withheld them from inmates in cells | Colorado Springs News | gazette.com (foolish and dangerous penny pinching)
The jail’s coronavirus outbreak at one point infected 859 inmates and 66 staff members during one week in November, making it one of the largest outbreaks in the state. The number of infections has dropped substantially since then. As of this week, six inmates and one staff member had the virus, according to the Sheriff’s Office website.

Doctors finding lung damage in COVID-19 patients, even those without symptoms | wwltv.com (tired of restrictions, being careful, think it’s not all that bad? Rethink!!!)
New studies and observations show there are many pandemic survivors just like Robert. Tulane pulmonary and critical care physician, Dr. Joshua Denson, has been treating patients in the ICU since the pandemic began. He is seeing more asthma and lung fibrosis.
“These patients have very scarred down lungs and that’s the ones that are either tough to get off the ventilator, or may require oxygen for prolonged periods of time, and we don’t know what to treat them with,” said Dr. Joshua Denson, an Assistant Professor of Medicine at Tulane.
Texas trauma surgeon, Dr. Brittany Bankhead-Kendall, recently shared X-rays of COVID lung destruction, saying it is worse than smokers’ lungs. It’s even showing up in former patients who say they feel fine, and those who got the virus with no symptoms.
“We’ve seen people with lung scarring that never got sick and so we’ve seen people that have bad lung damage even if they never went to the doctor or hospital,” Dr. Denson said.
When asked if those patients will ever get better, he replied, “We just don’t know. Pulmonary fibrosis is a pretty detrimental disease with a very high mortality rate.”
Another study out of the U.K. finds nearly a third of hospitalized COVID patients who recover, are readmitted with in five months, and one in eight dies. Many from respiratory disease.
“We’re seeing people that end up in the ICU for weeks, even months. And if you’re in the ICU for weeks or months, there’s no way you’re not going to have a very long and protracted recovery,” he said.

Acasă la Alexandru Macedon
Alexander of Macedon
Egnatia Odos, 2016
Nordul Greciei, în iunie. Pornesc spre locul de baștină al lui Alexandru Macedon.
De la Tesalonic, urmez Egnatia Odos, în direcția Veroia, într-un ținut care aparține omenirii în esența ei, nu doar Greciei.
În aparență un loc atât de modest, de aici a pornit un grec curajos în aspirația sa de cunoaștere. Simt energiile inspiratoare ale acestui ținut, de aceea mă întorc aici mereu și mereu. Călătorind în lung și-n lat prin nordul Greciei, demnitatea grecilor de aici o intuiesc ca fiind zămislită din admirația pentru eroul lor.
Cele două foste capitale pe care urmează să le vizitez sunt înscrise pe lista Patrimoniului mondial UNESCO.
În ordine cronologică:
***Vergina (Aigai), prima capitală a Macedoniei, unde se află necropola regală. Filip al II-lea și soția sa Olimpia, părinții marelui Alexandru, odihnesc acolo. Fiul acestuia, Alexandru IV, care a murit în împrejurări dubioase, încă adolescent, tot aici se presupune…
