    Look at California, HEART DISEASE is the #1 killer in normal times, HYPERTENSION is at #9.

    If you have these conditions and contract COVID-19, chances are you will die … or not!!

    Last time I heard, HEART DISEASE was the major cause of death in Barbados too!!

    So DPD, “Let not your heart be troubled …”

    “All this dying talk is morbid!!” @John, yes it is!

    Let’s put a brave face to our mortality… our wicks will go and our candle lose its light…it was bright and lit a path for someone while it burned brightly…That’s all we can ever hope and wish for!

    Nothing to be morbidly consumed about… life is beautiful and sad and must end!

    Out, out, brief candle!

    Washington — The captain of an aircraft carrier hit by the coronavirus was relieved of his command by the Navy on Thursday for going outside the chain of command and circulating a memo pleading for help from Washington, one which quickly became public.

    Acting Secretary of the Navy Thomas Modly said he relieved Captain Brett Crozier of command of the USS Theodore Roosevelt after losing confidence in his ability to lead under the stress of dealing with the viral outbreak.
