This doctor has lost the most patients in a single week ever in his career. All while people are calling his office and leaving threats because of all the media the doctor has been doing to say the threat is real. This is what is going on. People don't believe a word of what he says.

The interview also mentioned that this doctor seas young people out and about, partying and going on with their lives like there was no pandemic. No masks, no social distancing, no precautions.

I'm no doctor, I don't know if and how effective Hydroxychloroquine is, I just have to trust the medical journals that say it is not effective (or at best anecdotally is effective early on), but I'm sure all these Trump doctors claiming it's a cure isn't helping this doctor's case if he's losing patients while there is a "cure" out there. it seems that some people don't want to understand why spreading bad information can be very problematic.

if there's a "cure" out there people are going to want it whether it's real or not.

The camp took precautions but did not require campers to wear masks, the C.D.C. reported. Singing and cheering may have helped spread the virus.

This one too from earlier this month:


and this one in Quebec... and here we're talking 3-11 year-olds with 12-14 year old camp counselors, so all very young.

Nearly 20 secondary cases of COVID-19 linked to Boucherville day camp, bringing total cases to 46

The COVID-19 outbreak at a Boucherville day camp that has affected 27 people directly connected to the camp has now reached 19 others – an increase of about four secondary cases from a day before.

There is definitely something to be concerned about and there is a lot we still need to learn when it comes young children and COVID. How are they so actively spreading this when good precautions are in place and it was believed that they were inefficient spreaders?

Indiana student tests positive for Covid-19 on first day of school

As an Indiana school district welcomed students to the 2020-21 academic year, one of their students tested positive for Covid-19 on the first day of class, according to a letter sent to parents.
www.cnn.com www.cnn.com
First day back at school and this school district already had to enact it's "Positive COVID-19 Test Protocol".

The student's test results came back positive while he was in class on the first day of school.

When the school district was notified of the positive result they immediately isolated the student within the school's clinic, and they examined the student's schedule, including transportation and extracurricular activities, to determine who had come in close contact.
 
I'm hearing that COVID-19 is also creation a lot of relationship health issues and is leading to lots of seperations.

For example, if one person in the relationship is taking COVID-19 Seriously and to the other person in the relationship it is no more than the flu / a hoax a lot of tension is forming leading to fights.

I just heard about a happy couple of 10 years having their first maritable trouble over this. The husband is taking this seriously and taking precautions and not going out if he doesn't have to. To the wife this is no different than the flu and she is taking no precautions. She wants to go out with her girlfriends constantly, more than ever after being stuck inside during the stay at home order.

Any talking to her about COVID-19 and maybe it's not a good idea to go out and party with your friends several nights a week now just because places are open again leads to fights. Big time fights. She doesn't want to adjust her social life and any mention of precautions is being controlling.

I think this sort of thing is happening a lot in close family units right now-- I'm in my early 30s, two young kids, and I worry a lot about what my parents are doing and what my wife's parents are doing. We're being safe, really the only "risk" we take is sending our kids to daycare. But my FIL goes to a "socially distant" band practice in a big gym where they're all in masks and 12 feet apart, and my mom and my MIL play tennis (outdoors though so it's not actually a huge deal). And we constantly have to be on top of them about like, are you going to church? Are you going out to dinner with friends? Which is all really frustrating, since our parents are at a much higher risk than we are. I know a lot of my friends are dealing with the same issues, parents just not getting it / not caring / not paying attention or being safe, and it's frustrating. I can only imagine how hard it would be if one person within a marriage wasn't on board.
