    Oh, my - - is that by Toledo / lake Erie area? Strong image to me. I want to give her a hug.

    I think we all could probably think of comparisons. yours is valid to me.

    Yes we can but we better not compare it to a hurricane because Trump might think he can nuke the viris away. Cheers!

  • Basically, yes. The 1918 pandemic died out once so many people had gotten it and become immune that the virus had nowhere to go. So vaccination or herd immunity. Those are our options.

    I think that's an accurate statement.  I might add that the virus will end when enough people are vaccinated to create herd immunity much the same as when there is enough fire retardant spread that the flames have no more fuel to consume.

    I can see your point, but shareholders get fatter wallets in a wildfire?
