    Europeans urge wider curbs as COVID sweeps continent, batters U.S

    I think we will have to deal with this virus for quite some time, it might even take years for a proper vaccine to come out. It hasn't helped how people have behaved during these times in some places. Besides that there might be all the other aftermaths too, I'm not sure how society will recover and deal with some issues. I really hoped that something like this would have made people more sensible and that there would have been a sense of unity, but I see even more polarization during these times so that's a major disappointment for me. Steve Judd said in one his astrological reports that hopefullyearly next year the situation with the virus would calm down and turn much better, but I don't know if that will be the case.

    I'm almost dead-center in the Flanders, i.e. the northern, Dutch-speaking part of the country.

    Hey Aragorn, how goes it in Belgium? How are you? With all the election stuff here in the U.S. covid has been on the news backburner but every now and again I hear references of several days in a row now of 100,000 new cases. I see people (vote counters) on the tube talking with reporters with no masks and in pretty close proximity. I guess covid matters except when it doesn't.

    We're in full lockdown, but certain businesses and events are now strangely enough exempt from that, as opposed to the first time around.

    Quite horrible at the moment. The virus causes damage that your body needs months if not years to recover from, and I only got six months before I got reinfected ─ this is the second strain of the virus, so it's a mutation already ─ and it has now added its new damage to the damage that was already there from the first time.

    I'm in bad shape. I really am.

    Yes, exactly.

    That really sucks, man. Take care of yourself. When I get in that mode, I start doing all the healthy things I know I should do all the time but often don't have the full motivation. Diet, exercise for de-stressing is a very good thing.

    Aragorn, unfortunately, doesn't have a helicopter to take him to a top notch hospital where a league of doctors will treat him with state-of-the art drugs and treatments, then helicopter him home, all at the cost of his compatriots' tax dollars.

    Alas.

    Hi guys,

    Unfortunately I have some bad news, I've been diagnosed with covid too and it's bad enough, that I had to be hospitalised.

    Given my earlier obsession with the virus, i grew careless and attended my brother's wedding two weeks ago and must have got it there. I'll keep you posted.

    Take care of yourself ... I was actually wondering about how you were doing Chris. You'll be ok!

    Thanks guys, really appreciate the well wishes. Thankfully i get really good care in my local hospital and the most important thing is that I get oxygen, which makes such a difference. I was barely able to get out of bed and was constantly fatigued, but now with oxygen I feel reborn.

    I feel so bad for you, Aragorn. All you can do is rest right now and be at the computer a little, I guess. I won't bombard you with a number of herbal and vitamin remedies which may help prevent this but do sweet boom all after you've got it. Get yourself to a hospital if you feel you are sliding much more though, huh?

    Chris, I am so sorry to hear you have it as well. I can imagine at a wedding, you have a few drinks and then, of course, all best intentions are relaxed. Happy for you that oxygen is working. I wonder if it would help Aragorn? Hmmm...there's a thought.

    No, my problem isn't respiratory ─ well, there is some of that, but that's the least part of it. It's mostly neurological and gastrointestinal, and my heart is suffering too ─ probably the blood clots.

    Nope. There is none. It's a virus, and the only thing that can kill it is your immune system. It's working now, though. I still occasionally get a mild fever, but it's getting better. After all, I'm nearing the end of the second week, so by now most of the viruses in my body should be dead already.

    But that doesn't mean that there are no aftereffects. As the matter of fact, all corona patients have contracted damage that'll take years to recover from, if it's not permanent.
