Yes he did and he said sorry. I think he also sent his condolences.

Yes he did, he also said we must endure a little further.

As far as I know, there is no evidence that quitting smoking causes short term harm to the immune system. "smokers flu" is not an actual infection. In fact, from what I've read there may even be Immune System improvements when quitting smoking, even in the short-term.

I have quit a number of times, both smokes and vapes. I don't want to jinx it, but I would say my immune system is quite strong - NEVER had a flu (no vaccine) and only get cold once every 2-3 years. Work with people, go out etc so exposure is there.
Every single time though I tried to quit, I either got a cold or just wasn't feeling OK for a few weeks. Note: not smokers flu, actual cold.

That stress is more withdrawal symptoms. Will get over it in a couple of days. Just stay home for a week or two, tie yourself to an ergonomic chair. The underlying stress however didn't go anywhere.

Better take Xanax then?

ANC is losing quite a few leaders to covid lately

I said this in March 2020...

The ANC would really worry! They can cheat with voting... but not with death

Think the ANC’s doom’s day is here! Losing alot off support

This is why it is hard for government to invest in poor communities...certain elements of the community are hell-bent on destruction. Also it must be noted that Khayelitsha is one of the most infected areas in Cape Town.

The good news, we wont overtake russia within 1 or 2 maybe 3 weeks. So we are now #5

WC total new cases today is negative. Seems like someone was naughty and allocated other provinces cases to the WC

Another 13000+. We're really pushing them numbers.

It's a virus. It spreads. That's what it does.

 

[chrisc]

Where are these 13000? 0 today in Cape Town (well, at least reported as such)

Something wonky about that admitted number in Gauteng.

Funny things going on wiht the data recently reported. WC show a -454, other provinces show a spike in cases.

Seems like someone is busy with a clean-up of the data.

Correct, it is explained on the WC Covid19 website. Apparently WC got allocated cases from the other provinces which they fixed today.

'Mistakenly' allocated to the only province not run by the ANC. Fortunately it was spotted but...

Seems like we have finally hit our daily testing limits. The question is why have recoveries exceeded active cases recently as we are "in the eye of the storm"?
