My 16 year old daughter has covid.

My daughter became very Ill yesterday morning around 10am. We will have her tested tomorrow but based on symptoms we are confident it is covid. All the local stores are sold out of home test and there is a 3 day wait for a rapid test. By 3pm I had her started on a covid treatment pack sold by a local dr (zinc, vitamin C, D, zithromax, and HCQ). I'm very happy to report that she woke up this morning feeling almost 100%.

But everything that is going on got me thinking about the plot from Planet of the Apes.

The virus continues to spread and many who would oppose authoritarian government are killed off.

Simultaneously, government overreach and dictatorial policies gain more ground every day.

18 months ago I would have laughed at a statement like that but now I think otherwise.

This delta variant has become everything that original covid was feared to be, and with more mutations on the horizon, I'm starting to think this was the plan all along.

Does anyone else think that it's a little odd that the government created so must mistrust last year concerning this virus by getting their facts wrong ( ie...lockdowns, hospitals overflowing, distributive justice, 10 days behind Italy, mask mandates, everyone is asymptomatic for 14 days, etc.)and now many of the things they harped on last year are coming to fruition under a much more severe strain? I'd like to believe that the government is that incompetent but it is starting to seem like it was intentionally done to create mistrust in the government so more people would die this year and who knows how many next year.

And now we're being told we may need booster shots every 5 months to be healthy while we inject random chemicals into our bodies? I'm not anti vax but this is crazy talk for a virus with 99.5% survivability rate and medication available to treat it very effectively.

At this point I'm convinced that next year will be worse than it is now. What is the boards outlook for this winter and beyond?

Rapid test this morning confirmed it is covid. She says she feels normal but does have a mild fever. Other than that she is good. Our school even said she can come back after 4 days with a negative test. Thank you all for your support.
