Dear reader,

Hey. I hope you're doing well!

Update on COVID-19 (Corona virus), scientists say it is their "opinion" it originated in central or western Asia, that it originated in a bat and from there it transferred to another animal and then to a human. But -- that there is no known evidence of animal to human or human to animal transference.

With that said, let me just say, this is just their professional opinion, and while it should be given great weight, do not go betting the house and farm that it's accurate. This is still a work in progress. The info we receive, via the media, will change as time progresses. But as it does so, it'll become more and more accurate.

So... don't panic. If you're sick, take the necessary precautions to keep from catching this. This also applies even if you're not sick because you could catch it and then spread it to someone who is...

In short, to wrap this up, it's not the end of the world. It is a dangerous virus but there's enough we can do to prevent fatal harm. It's about doing what you know is smart. Wash your hands, often, for 20 seconds each time, use hand sanitizer (don't go overboard), stay away from hot zones and sick people, to keep from catching it but also spreading it to them just in case you have it and aren't aware of it. if you have a loved one who has it and they need you to be there for them... wear a hazmat suit ;) I'm joking! :D Ha! Ha! That wouldn't be a horrible idea though. But if it were me? I'd drink plenty of vitamin C and eat a diet that's rich in pre and probiotics. Wash my hands, anytime, before and after I assisted them and sterilize the environment around them.

Now -- something to occupy your mind that'll keep it away from media worries. A riddle.

What runs day and night
But has no legs
And never sleeps
But has a bed?

What is your answer?
I hope I hear from you soon! Take care!!!
Until next time.

Yours truly,

Doug

P.S. Check out this YouTube video. I think it's hilarious. I laughed hard :D
