| #12 Here's a hearsay account from the Web: "I’m in Utah. A friend of my wife told her that she and her husband signed up to get the Covid-19 test. The line at the testing facility was so long, they gave up and went home. They got a call two days later from the testing facility saying that they tested positive for Covid-19.—they never had the test. Another friend had the swab test. Her mouth was swabbed four times and was counted as four tests." Ripley's Believe it or Not. |

When the disaster fails to materialize, credit the masks -- even though a cloth mask is completely worthless. News of 12,478 additional cases and 87 deaths comes as Gov. Ron DeSantis resists implementing a statewide mask mandate, saying Saturday the state would not be "prosecuting people" who refuse to wear face coverings |
