Oh, I meant to mention that he's 53, as people here seem to care about the ages of those affected.
I so hope your brother can feel the good care of the staff and become well.

Many of my friends are frontline healthcare staff around Boston and I know they care very much for their patients and their work.

Back on topic. Just listen to scientists and doctors. And not the select few (or two) with an agenda.
USE your brain they did not tell us the answers until after we took it. i was brought to a cult and rejected it but you assume the negative .

I am saying you should not wear masks and gloves at all times. if you are in the group who is old or has co morbidities then you should probably wear a mask.

And forget the fact that this is a brand new virus. It's truly mind boggling the crap some people fall for when they are desperate.
prove to me that it does not lower your immunity. if this was one week of wearing masks id say ok but we are talking about months and months of wearing masks and gloves. those doctors are right there is also a thing called good bacteria ever heard of it? if your sanitizing everything in your house your not getting exposed to the good bacteria.

Not only are you wearing gloves and masks but you are interacting with way less people and staying home and not getting introduced to new bacteria. your not seeing as many people. Just like you have to exercise your muscles you have to exercise your immune system or it gets weaker.

I think ill trust the doctors on this. I dont even need a doctor to tell me this .

I'm not assuming the negative. There is nothing negative about this. This story is hilarious, and I wish you would tell us more.

Ok taking the test was when I was a kid and they gave us the test in a catholic church. they handed the test with like 10 questions on it . another question was is it important to fit into a group? and other questions like that. I am not a practicing catholic.

I was friends with someone who was involved in a cult in my early 20's . He would talk about how great it is and wanted me to come. I knew it was a cult but to shut him up i went one day. I wont give too many details on this cult because they could be dangerous. Lets just say Tom cruise is a member. I Had to sign something the first daY I went saying i would not talk about what went on in this Cult.

So I told my friend if he wanted to continue going to cult I said fine but I do not want to go again. He said "hey is someone talking bad about the cult", but he did not use the word cult obviously. I said no if you like it go I will not go. then i stopped talking to him shortly after that.

You should have gone - you would probably be a Knight of Templar by now

Was it Fight Club? Because we could really use some soap right about now.

I would guess the Church of Scientology (hence the Tom Cruise reference).
