I’ve noticed that this website never announces recoveries. I am curious to know how many recoveries there have been.

Senator Rand Paul recovered but never had severe symptoms. He is now reportedly immune and working with Corona Patients in hospitals. I did not learn this from “regular” news channels. It seems this Covid19 thing is a killer flu virus but it is different. It has a KILLER PUBLIC RELATIONS TEAM which has greatly exaggerated the fatality rate. The hysteria that has been generated by dubious news sources could be responsible for what could become the biggest economic collapse in history. Will certain parties benefit from that collapse? You’ve got to wonder.
