This is from my mother in Holland who is sure she has this virus:
I think there is a lot more going on with this corona virus than we have realized. Thanks for pointing me to Dr Cottrell. He noted that the virus can survive on its own for at least 9 days.
That was two days ago and I still am waiting for a Phone call from my doctor
Stupid me for not realizing that my two very inexpensive large packs of toilet paper came from China. I tore one open and a day later I got the mothers of all flu bugs. I am sure I am probably exaggerating but who knows how else this thing spreads! Look at the way it spread all over the map. Those loads from China are still arriving in harbours all over the world.
I’m at home, and phoned the receptionist of my GP’s office. She very stupidly told me to ‘come in and be tested’ and was laughing when she put down the Phone when I told her I didn’t want to infect people with this bug. A logical answer but they treat elderly people like idiots all over the world and the Dutch are no exception. That was two days ago and I still am waiting for a Phone call from my doctor but actually I don’t want one. I’m don’t need confirmation to identify a flu bug. Which is what this is anyway.
I have a fever of about 40.5 (104.9 F)
So I stay inside. I don’t go out anywhere. I have enough food stocked and filter my water and have more than enough Ibuprofin and aspirin to keep my fever down to last me for two months. I use eucalyptus oil drops to keep down the mucus in my lungs and nasal passages. Because that’s where the danger lies: your lungs fill up and you drown.
I have a fever of about 40.5 average and manage to keep it down rather well. I hear one can get it again because many patients do not develop antibodies.
Now listen to this insanity! Dutch virologists are sitting on TV claiming that ‘children cannot get the flu.’ Have you ever heard anything more irresponsible? They also don’t close the borders to new arrivals, don’t test contents of packages from China despite overwhelming evidence. Our foreign affairs minister went to IRAN where the deputy health minister has the bug and shook the hands of every cabinet member. And then he came back and very optimistically announced that he was immune to the flu and would not be tested and that everything was fine ‘because I am showing no symptoms.”
At the moment I feel pretty sick but I am coping
I live in the land of the mentally stupid ruled by insane leftwing maniacs who refuse to accept sound scientific advice and make up their own stories as they go along. We are doomed!
Well after that happy note, I hope that you guys are allright and have a more intelligent group of people running your country!
At the moment I feel pretty sick but I am coping and walking around and exercising and taking showers to cheer me up and refuse to watch any news programmes any more. Sorry. Don;’t need to be lied to.
I love you son, and the boys, and (your wife). And will keep you up to date on my progress.
Had a bad night: I drink a lot of water and so also have to use the toilet A LOT at night. Which is a good thing for my body but bad for a peaceful sleep. I am rewatching my videos and actuallly not worried about anything.
Que Sera!
I love you guys

Mom was right. She died March 28, 2020 at 2pm. Her church in Dokkum will give her a “pandemic” burial. I can’t even go. This virus just prevented me from being able to see my Mom off.
