Political Climate through My Eyes
Political Climate In My World By Anne Donegan Costas
This past year has been an eye opening experience in the political arena. I have always been somewhat involved in politics. However, I find myself now becoming more involved. This is due in part to government getting more involved in my personal life. It has been and is being done on a level I have never experienced and I am concerned. I am trying to look at different angles, however, and learn new things so I can try and make sense of what is happening. The corona virus started it for me. The perimeters put on us by the CDC, WHO, and Dr. Fauci seemed a bit much. I started asking questions. Questions are okay? Right? Not so much!
Corona Virus Is Real
Corona Virus is real. It makes many ill who have already lowered immune systems. It has even been deadly for many. Those who are healthy with strong immune systems are less affected. This has been studied and there are many physicians, scientists, and case studies which will show this to be true.
While I am not proposing complacency at all I am proposing that our powers in charge have talked this virus up to the level that has caused panic in our world. This isn’t just happening in the United States. It is happening in Spain, France, England, China, and all over the world. The leaders have put people in such a scared state. Many won’t even leave their homes and have shut themselves out of life. This continued even after the cases were so low all the mandates were lifted.
I have many friends and there are many people wherever I go that still wear the masks. Now I know there is a resurgence of covid cases. I am not talking about wearing masks now. I am talking about the last month or more when things had become more stable in the United States and especially in Texas. There were so few cases that they had stopped reporting them daily.
Results of Lockdowns, Masks, Closings
I questioned whether those making these decisions did indeed have our best interest at heart? Did they look at the long term effects of locking down businesses and closing schools? So many negatives came from the past year that I question—I am not making a statement of fact–I am questioning whether they made the best calls for most of our nation and our people.
If you take the time to research, read, listen to physicians from all parts of the globe and podcasts from all sorts of people from all over the world you may find why many are asking questions. Many of the negatives are a result of our lockdowns this past year. As we move forward and before more mandates come perhaps looking at the past mandates and the results that came because of them could be considered.
The findings from all these mandates, closings and restrictions placed on us are horrifying in my opinion. Suicides and depression in all age groups has risen the past year. This has been due in part to people losing their jobs, their businesses, not being able to socialize and be with friends. This has had lasting effects on our people and our land.
Investigating On Your Own
There will be a list of websites, physicians, podcasts and more on my next blog. You can listen to or follow up on anything you might be interested in investigating. Obviously I am just baiting you to become more involved. Ask questions. Look things up on search engines that are unbiased and neutral.
Could we be a place where we can brainstorm the good, bad, and the ugly without others immediately calling names. It might be helpful to compare how many have been sick from covid to other viruses and years. I have heard from physicians that the numbers from covid deaths are not near as bad as other illnesses from our past. Do I believe it? I personally have not done enough research on it to have a valid opinion yet. But I have heard enough the past year to question their decisions about masks, etc.
I have also heard physicians say wearing the mask doesn’t help and, in fact, may cause children to have breathing and lung concerns at a young age. Keep in mind you are not breathing in fresh air but your own recycled air over and over. I have learned enough to make me question whether wearing a mask is really the best for us? Maybe it could be an option? Sure. Would it be a good idea to mandate masks? I am not sure.
So look things up. Investigate on your own. I am constantly finding new sources and I talk to friends who have other avenues of information which constantly are adding to my catalogue of information.
Thanks for reading.
Stay Healthy and Blessings
Soon after these stipulations came out it seems there were those who disagreed with some of the restrictions place on us. I started reading articles, listening to podcasts by Doctors from around the world that said while this was a harmful virus it didn’t require the amount of attention it was getting. We have gone through flu seasons that have been much worse in years gone by according to many experts in the medical field.
