We could've kept everything opened up using a few precautions, and when the monoclonal antibodies treatments came around and shown to work the Government and the Media shut it down.
a few states have monoclonal antibodie centers set up like Florida and my state of Utah.
My work was shut down for 2 and 1/2 months.
I was getting 1,000 dollars a week to stay home, I still did all my stuff outside and went to stores etc.. In Jan of 2020 my wife and I got what we assumed was just the flu, I don't think it was covid but who knows.

It was a disgrace. How do you justify denying someone surgery that could save their life? Our society needs an attitude adjustment.

What really got to my nerves was when the Social Security Hospitals around here reserved whole floors for COVID cases, which were never used to full capacity, and a lot of people was left untreated for other things because the rooms and installations were reserved for COVID cases that were not happening en-masse.

But then other hospitals in other cities are said to have been a bit overloaded, so maybe they just sinned of excessive precaution.

I think the whole deal was a clusterfuck of a mess. They had infected Doctors who were kept working. Then there was people who was given a morphine kit and sent to die home. And all through the thing there were free installations in the hospitals.

WTF????

I have 6 of my door games connected to bbslink. It runs fair most of the time. It offers my callers some games connected to other bbs's for more interactive fun. I notice it's more fun for me when calls are light. What do you think of inter bbs activity? Should all doors be local? It is not much of a draw for callers it seems. It does save wear and processor time on my bbs. I am trying to decide if it is worth it. 3 of bbs link doors have been unreachable for 24 hours now, is why I am pondering this.

The nice thing is it gives people a
chance to compete against more players
than just those on your BBS. I have
these same thoughts when I notice them
being down/unreachable. For some games,
it's worth it. Others, better to have
local.
