Corona Virus

In the US, for Latinos and COVID -19 doctors are seeing an alarming disparity.[ nothing to do with vitamin d by the way] The same reasons African Americans and British blacks are being infected more than whites.

Public health experts say Latinos may be more vulnerable to the virus as a result of the same factors that have put minorities at risk across the country. Many have low-paying service jobs that require them to work through the pandemic, interacting with the public. A large number also lack access to health care, which contributes to higher rates of diabetes and other conditions that can worsen infections.

Covid stole my nana [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24] and cheated dad of seeing his mum again when flights all got cancelled [emoji24] she was in England.

This may shed some light as to why the US is blaming China / Wuhan Lab, but not going all the way....
As suggested, there's no Black hats vs White hats, but everyone is wearing a shade of grey....

[bigrolf] I'd heard about people like him. All I really wanted was go back to the house in the early morning & nick her undies.


I actually thought I'd get away with it until some nosey copper turned up with the Blues & Twos screaming but I fooled him by hurdling the back 15' cyclone fence. (You've never seen me in full flight when cornered, I'll bet) As for dimensions VN, about 6' , blonde & thin build aprox 80 kg. I happened to notice this this when I peeped through her bedroom window.



And if you believe that you'll believe any olde rubbish.[bigrolf]

That is quite sad Epic. [bigsad] I hope he had been sent some photos from the UK a while ago but of course he wanted to hear her voice too. One never knows when you say Ooroo to a person especially close to you whether that may be the last time you will see & speak to them.
When our Daughter & Granddaughter visit here or there, I always try to give them a big hug & tell them I love them.

Now, we have 3 Great Grandchildren who we saw last, just when this Covid business started & we had to speak to them through the front fence with no hugs & it was the youngest's birthday. We felt quite sad that at our ages this bloody thing had been foisted upon us through no fault of ours. As my M in Law used to say, "remember the Bulldog Spirit & Up boys & Attem" Never have found where she got the last bit from but that was her, but it always sounded good.

He did speak to her only a week ago. We did speak to her often and despite living in Australia, we are all a very close family (we moved to Australia in 1992. Nonr of us have ever been able to go back, shr used to come out every 2 years. Dad finally sorted citizenship (we have been permanent residents this whole time) and then saved to go and covid came :( and then she caught it :( she did know he wss due to visit at least too. Its the hard part of being in a different country to the one we are born in and from :(

And then lets everyone on a public forum know about it[bigrolf]
