Well whatever it causing it, I seriously hope it turns out to be something that can be sorted. Some of my family have had nerve issues in the past, though they seemed to fade away in time. Thanks. I hope it will be that easy. But I tried to Google connections between nerves and my symptoms and that didn't exactly make me happy... All I found was stuff like MS or spinal/brain tumors.  Although, I did find also B12 deficiency as a possible less serious cause, I have been tested for that several times when I was younger and it was never a problem... but as a vegetarian I am more at risk for that, so it is not impossible. Guess I will hope for that one... Well as a way to test it, you could always take more B12 and if that improves things, then you may not have anything to worry about. It could explain why doctors haven't found anything in you. |

I think that's the equivalent of wearing a Harry Potter cloak. (Someone would actually do that in my high school lmfao...) I think it's nearly impossible to pull off unless you live in the right area and already have serious cowboy vibes ie. wear a hat and boots and stuff maybe even have a holster lol.. |

Well if you ever find yourself in a ranch in Colorado, Utah, or Nevada, or a western reenactment, then you'll know the time is right |

I don't understand how the govenor of California has the authority to ban vocal music from churches? That's a blatant abuse of power and is totally against religious freedoms. Hope that guy gets sued up his ass and smacked back to reality. Wow.

Hope that guy gets sued up his ass and smacked back to reality. Wow. Vocal music is considered to be one of the best ways to spread the coronavirus, so that makes sense to me. They basically banned it here as well, not just for churches but in general. Most other measures are gone, but a ban in singing in choirs remains because of how dangerous it is considered to be. And judging by the numbers the US needs to have even stricter restrictions because you guys are doing terribly... |

The best solution would be to stop testing so much so our numbers would match the rest of the world. At least from an optics perspective. |

The best solution would be to stop testing so much so our numbers would match the rest of the world. At least from an optics perspective. The rest of the developed world is doing significantly better in every way though. Decreasing testing won't stop that. The EU as a whole has significantly lower numbers of infection at the moment than the US, despite the fact that the EU has a higher population. And that has nothing to do with testing, because most countries have more tests than people with symptoms at the moment, so there is no need for more testing. We are just lucky to have (mostly) competent leaders here. As much as I disagree with people like Mark Rutte (Netherlands) or even Angela Merkel on many issues, at least I believe they will try to do the right thing. |

To be fair every countries COVID numbers are higher than they appear... most people are asymptomatic. The US is estimated to have over 20 million cases and that’s a conservative guess. Some say it’s near 40 million. At that rate they won’t need a vaccine, it will be full herd immunity. Which honestly might be what Trump wants.
Canada has never had much issue tbh.

There’s some weird shit going on here with the counting now. Like they started counting people who’ve been in contact with someone sick as another case or something? And for months now they’ve been counting anyone who dies with COVID as a COVID death, even if it wasn’t COVID that killed them. |

Yeah I was gonna mention the death thing, although we don’t know exactly if having COVID could put you at higher risk of a heart attack/ stroke. However they even count cancer patients as COVID deaths too... |

Ive never really been into colognes but have been trying to get some good ones over the summer.
I got a sample of Acqua Di Gio, which is the best selling one, but it kinda just smells like seawater.

I got stuff like that for Christmas last year. It's not bad, since it's quite a subtle smell, which I prefer way more than the more pungent stenches |

I just don’t like it right after you spray it on. |

So I guess they’re now counting “likely cases” as actual cases.
What I’m gathering is that if you’re inflected with COVID, then now we assume everyone you’ve been around recently also has COVID. That’s where the “second spike” comes from.

That’s where the “second spike” comes from. They've actually stopped showing the daily death toll here, since they've been inflating the deaths. For example, you could die in a car crash, but be be listed as "dying from covid" because you tested positive. Apparently the government's looking into this, which is making me think scientific aides and government officials are now playing a blame game with each other. |

Luckily other far-right idiots (Bolsonaro) are trying to catch-up. |

Yes, the way our system would be set up, George Floyd would be considered a COVID death. |
