So glad that your friend is better. Perhaps I'm being Pollyanna, but this raises my level of hopefulness.

HOw are things in your area? I'm reading that my parish has it's first positive BUT until it's confirmed by someone official, I'm taking it with a grain of salt.

eta: woops. Just confirmed. One case in Vermilion Parish, very south Louisiana, about 120 miles or so from NOLA.

Anecdotal evidence.

Man uses muddy water instead of clean water to put out a fire at his house.

Fire departments approve comapssionate use of muddy water to put out fires. Individual firemen must apply for a permit to do so.

NFPA will conduct a double blind study. Results will be published by 2022.
