Today I am writing this blog from my bed. I have been sick with COVID for the past four days.
Yes, COVID is still a thing.
No, it is not a hoax.
Yes, I had the vaccine.
It came out of nowhere. I was working and suddenly my body was on fire. I had a raging fever that took me down.
I have been quarantined to our bedroom while my wife is forced to sleep in the living room.
She has taken care of me and endured my endless coughing, sneezing and groans.
I am not a good patient.
She knows I hate asking for things and being helpless.
I thought I was making progress yesterday. No fever or pain but then another wave hit and my temperature spiked again with a vengeance.
Yes, I have prayed. I never really prayed for my own healing much before so I tried it.
No, I am not healed. I am still sick.
I don’t know why God didn’t heal me but I still believe He could if He wanted to. These are things I really don’t understand and won’t waste my time trying.
When God doesn’t heal you, you just push through it the best you can.
That’s what I am doing now.
I lay here in bed angry at our politicians for making this virus a political issue.
Remember when they said it was a political thing when it was a WORLDWIDE pandemic? We have these morons trying to take away the vaccines from us. I can’t imagine how bad this would have been had I not been vaccinated.
I remember all the idiotic things that went on during the pandemic yet we elected the SAME president who was in office then. How did we let that happen?
Right now I am sick of being sick. My nose is running constantly. I have to stop typing so I can cough.
This is the second time I have had COVID. It is just as bad this time as it was before.
When you get COVID one of the first thoughts you have is wondering how you got it. I wondered how it got me this time but there isn’t anything I can do about it now. I just want to get over it.
It’s a good sign that I am typing this blog since I couldn’t do anything for the past four days. Maybe I am making progress.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO) - since we can’t trust the idiots in our own government - there are currently 27,000 cases of COVID worldwide. According to the WHO website, the United States is not providing any data to them.
Although our country wants to bury its political head in the sand, cases of COVID are growing in 16 states and likely growing in 14 others, plus in Washington, DC.
Over the past week, test positivity for SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, rose from 10.2% to 11.2%, with levels as high as 17.9% in the south-central part of the country, followed by levels in the 11.3% to 14.3% range in the West and 11.6% in the Southeast.
You won’t hear about this on the news.
Do you know how we are getting this data? They are testing wastewater in cities to get these numbers. Can you believe that crap (no pun intended)?
What a responsible and honest government of the people would do would be to admit it still exists and find a cure for it. Wouldn’t that be the thing to do? Instead, they choose to ignore it, stop testing and end vaccinations.
Remember when Trump said: “If you don’t test, you don’t have any cases.”
And some of you actually voted for him.
Sad.
Bottom line is that I am sick. This is day four and the real experts say I have about 10 more days to get over this.
So be warned. COVID is still out there waiting to strike. At least carry a mask with you and if you are in a crowded space at least wear it while you are there.
I’m not going to get started on masks either. I don’t like wearing them either and I’m not going to go crazy and wear them everywhere all the time again.
Okay, enough of my ranting. I have COVID and I just have to get through this once again. It just would have been good if we had taken it seriously when it first started spreading.
