Today, from the city hall podium with the sign language translator standing faithfully beside him, Mayor Lenny Curry of Jacksonville, Florida notified the residents of Jacksonville of the latest and most severe actions taking so far in the entire state of Florida, supposedly under the auspices of combating the spread of the novel coronavirus and its related disease, COVID-19.
A week ago, Gov. Ron DeSantis issued a similar order, but his order only applied to the southern half of Florida in an effort to stop Miami from turning into a hotspot.
Here in Jacksonville, things have begun to deteriorate. There is an uneasiness in the air as we face the reality that we only have a little more than 24 hours of freedom as we have known it. After this is over, what we call freedom will likely no longer exist, having been eradicated to keep people from moving too closely to others who may be ill.
So...
Is This Move Even Necessary? If Only Jacksonville enacts it, what about other cities? What role will they play? Will they follow suit or will they be the lone stand-out?
Well, it's hard to tell, really. I've heard all of the stories, heard all of the names and cases associated with COVID19, but I have yet to knowingly run into someone suffering from its sickness like I can with the flu or the cold.
Then, something really strange happened. I don't know if any of you guys watch the Project Veritas video published a day or two ago, in which the Project Veritas rolls up on a COVID treatment facility. During the back and forth banter, the National Guardsmen literally says "Oh. It's the flu. It's just the flu."
I have watched the video, and it is quite disturbing. Has anyone actually independently verified what differentiates this virus from SARS-CoV1? I would love to take a look at said research. The origin story of the COVID-19 virus is suspect in nature, especially when there is a biologic warfare lab right up the street. But officials blamed the fish market.
WTF is really going on here?
In the end, we are going to have to rebuild the world, and we are going to have to be ready to step up and do it!
