Interesting…Very Interesting…World Health Organization comes out Against Lockdowns to “fight Coronavirus”
I was alerted to this new (?) stance by the All-Powerful World Health Organization, warning countries NOT to lock down their economies to fight the Wuhan Coronavirus.

Ruining Society Every Day
The so-called "Public Health" "Authorities", and the so-called "Press" (scare quotes fully intended) seem to be in collusion with the state government to ruin society.
