We weren’t very close, but I do talk to his son frequently. I cannot even say goodbye to him on the hospice ward because the hospital is only allowing 1 visitor per day due to some Covid rules they’ve put into play. That would mean that if I went tomorrow morning, then the hospital would turn away one of my two cousins or worse yet his wife of almost 40 years.
I had a girlfriend and we broke up recently. Her family is from the Philippines and its even worse there. Each island is a province (there are like 7000 islands, I think) and people haven’t been able to leave their province this whole time to see their elderly relatives for 7 months and vice versa due to quarantine. Can you imagine that? It enrages me to think about. These bastard politicians in every country who propagated this irrational fear knowingly should be hunted like dogs and torn to pieces. The lives torn apart, the businesses broken, the fortunes and nest eggs destroyed...these bastards have to pay.
No syrupy well wishes, please. Thanks.

Sad to hear your uncle is dying, however death is visited upon all of us at some time.
Sadly "the Wu Flu" is being milked by politicians world wide, never let a good crisis go to waste sort of shit is in play. Covid 19 does exist however it is not as deadly as the supposed experts claim.
Agreed many politicians and health care professionals have proved that are incompetent bordering on criminal in their behavior, if they will pay for their crimes, well that is sadly unlikely to happen
