EDITORS NOTE: – By the way, here’s a list of shit that will get your comment dumped. Sexist language, homophobic language, racist language, anti-muslim hate, transphobic language, Chemtrails, 9/11 truthers, Qanon lunacy, climate deniers, anti-fluoride fanatics, anti-vaxxer lunatics, 5G conspiracy theories, the virus is a bioweapon, some weird bullshit about the UN taking over the world and ANYONE that links to fucking infowar.
sumsuch – I’m sure that in my reading from experts, I have come across the point they have noted, that people are not convinced by logic. If you are not succeeding in the approach you take, why not try another? You may be pressing the wrong buttons, that way is madness, and it doesn’t work for pigeons or people. Something that is helpful in life, is not being too predictable, give people a surprise sometimes, change your position slightly and get a different view. You might surprise yourself too.

This was in Christmas Day news but I’m putting it in yesterdays as it isn’t good news and I want to keep it from spoiling Christmas cheer.
It’s bad news about the deaths. I noticed on a graph I saw how our one a month deaths had gone up from the end of October to about 10 a month, graphically that shows a sharp rise.* We learned to walk carefully round the mudpools and cope with sulphurous steam around Rotorua, we now need to learn to cope with this invisible enemy that will make many of us sick with perhaps bronchial effects – not nice. We are dying more, and we will get sick more and spread the sickness around and put pressure on our helping systems, family or public. I presume this is a reliable site with reliable statistics, it certainly presents them well, eg Total Coronavirus deaths in NZ, shows the sharp curve I referred to above.

I like this site. Here is some detail about it they have put up.
