Being English, with my daughter and family in England, I subscribed to the daily Coronavirus: Downing Street briefing. Each day I have been getting more concerned at the amount of deaths in a country the size of Florida.
I watch this on YouTube, and they go over all the figures, with graphs etc., very much like here, but stick to the subject.
My daughter just sent me an update that the ‘U.K. has Europe’s second-highest Covid-19 death toll’.
Thankfully my granddaughter still has the same intensity, but the frequency of coughing has lessened.
Prayers going over the pond, to my homeland.
Do they tell you the recovery numbers?

UK was too slow off the mark and ill-prepared. The numbers will only get worse when they add in all those nursing home deaths. Glad to hear your grand-daughter appears to have weathered the storm.

I hope your family remains safe. It must be hard with so much distance. Can you do the video chat thing with them?

So pleased to read that your granddaughter’s cough has reduced. That must ease your mind a little, Susie.
All the very best to her; and all.

They don’t go online, apart from emails, so I phone often.

No they aren’t, because they may not of reached their peak yet.

It doesn’t matter what a peak is, it’s the recovery rate that matters. Or the death rate per capita.
In my state the death rate is 0.03 %.
In my county, the death rate is zero.
I’ll take those odds.

Dear Susie,
I also worry about my many friends in the US and the mixed messages sent to the nation by Donald Trump. Being such a large country where the numbers of deaths vary greatly from state to state, I fear an early easing of the lockdown may cause a new spike.
Stay safe best wishes
Kevin
